dent Judge Samuel McC. Swope
and Associates, David T. Hum

the bench.
The first thing done was the
hearing of the returns of the sew
eral constables of the County.
Taylor townships constable said
they had bridge out there that
needed repairing, and that there
we're but few index boards up,
The matter was left IN the hands
of the District Attorney. The
Union township constable SAID
that there were but few index
boards up In his township. The
Court lntimated that process
would be issued against supervis.
ors who persisted in refusing or
neglecting this most important
duty, and that index boards
should be placed at every cross
roads or forks of roads. This,
like the Taylor complaint, was
left for the District Attorney to
look after. The Thompson town
ship constable reported the pub
lie road near Tonoloway creek as
IN bad condition, and this was
left also IN the hands of the Dis
trlct Attorney. The Bethel town
