A CARD FROM Mr.. hi'LENDON
He Explains in Regard to a Tax Fifa,
and COrrects a Report That
Was Circulated.

To the People of Terrell County:
In view of the fact that an erroneous
report in regard to fl IA which I
had issued against Mr.. G. w. Gun
nels was circulated to injure me
in my recent race for tax collector,
said report being that l did it I'M
fairly and unjustly, and as so many
of the friends of both sides are COM
ing to me for an explanation l feel
that in justice to myself l should
make this statement
1t being my duty, as the law re-
quires, to issue fl fas against all tax
defaulters on the 21st of December,
and as Mr. Gunnels had not paid his
taxes by that date, | issued the fl ia
and turned the same over to the bail
if with a receipt attached. When the
executive committee met to make up
list of the voters for the primary
they found Mr.. Gunnels' name on
the defaulters' list, as the bailiff
of the Sixth Greenwood district
had not made returns to me and
l had not been advised of his
having paid. The time, which by
law that | have to allow the bailiffs
to make returns had not expired.
The executive committee notified
Mr.. Gunnels that his name appeared
on the defaulters' list, and he pro-
duced his receipt, which he had Sc
cured by paying the tax and cost Of
fl ia to the bailiff, which settled the
matter with the committee.
! 1t was reported that [ issued the
fl ia against him after he had paid
his taxes. 1t was also reported that

ed the race for tax collector in order
to try to injure him. g The records
will show that these reports are I'M
true and will bear me out in the
statement that I make, and Mr.. Gun

facts in the case will admit that l
have done nothing but my duty, as
it is laid down by the law, in the
whole matter.
