Your commissioner further respective
ly reports: The account of the previous
commissioner and the various sheriffs'
settlements show the number of out
standing bonds against this district at
the time the commissionership was
turned over to the Undersigned, April,
1907, to have been 49. Since then, as
shown by above report, with attached
vouchers, your commissioner has re-
tired two of these bonds, leavingyet un-
paid forty-seven bonds. These bonds
bear interest at the rate of per cent
per annum, payable semi-annually.
Your commissioner is unable to give, at
this time the exact amount that will be
turned over to him by the sheriff in his
settlement for taxes collected in 1907,
but, by reason of a greater amount of
property being assessed, and a some
what smaller amount being expended,
there will come into the hands of your
commissioner a larger amount than was
turned over to him by the sheriff in
1907. Your commissioner will have
sufficient funds to retire another bond
and leave balance in his hands.
Very respectfully submitted,
NJ. II. Beard.
