! 1b4S.3
This is the item now in dispute Now, | would
! like to be informed as TO howthese several items
appear here aud still this shortage is claimed by
the COMMITTEES, Is It that this money which has
been declared cancelled and received by the
/ trustees hasn't been placed In the treasury to
| the credit of the Asylum, or is it otherwise?
/ Mr.. Roethea In the treasurer's report be
I levc the SS45S3 appears but the other 10000
does not. That is according to my recollection
now. We stated in our report that it shows on
/ the records that s54hS5 was received from o. 6.
/ Rewey but we cannot find the $1,000.
/ Mr. Cody: have assumed that those two
I items occurring on opposite sides balanced.
I Mr.. Roethe:I It's reported in the trustees
report but does not show up in the treasurers
/ record.
| Q. Then 1t has been received but no. credit
edy A. That is my understanding of It.
Mr.. Codya Night be permitted IT this time
! To- ask the County Treasurer TO appear and bring
his records that this matter might be investi-
1 gatedf
1 ,Chair:l | am informed that Mr. Hoskin's
wife is sick and he is not feeling well and has
I gone home.
/ MIR. Roethe. will state that if he desires to
\ take my figures l can give them 10 him.
/ Mr.. Cody. / don't dispute your figures.
| Mr.. Edgau;l Ii Mr.. Roethe and this commit
/ tee have examined the treasurer's books aud
/ haven't found that that money was deposited,
| don't see that you are going TO do any good
viii state II there is shortage of that $1,000 in
I the County Treasury, and il IL is a shortage,
I Mr. Cody aud can take Mr.. Perkins in that
little back room there and get his check for the
I difference.
/ Mr.. Jacksou:l / would say that these men
have done very well for the time they have been
/ Mr.. RoetheJ II this is going to be the
procedure on the part OF this committee,
| would like to call attention to the items
Just proceeding that one. IT is relative TO
some return premiums ON Il policy which
the trustees reported cancelled; Niagra
ms for $500, premium sl2.5o. think A.
/" Jones was the agent at that time. The
order was issued for that amount and the
minutes show that this insurance policy
was cancelled the following month but
there Is no receipt showing ol12.5O return
premium. We Incorporated In our report
the testimony Of the superintendent. He Is
on record rs saying that he has no recolleC-
tlon OF receiving such return premium.
MT Rewey:l ! notice In the report that
money has beOn deposited at various times
una IN various amounts. DO you think II
would b" lair la the face OF this to say that
~ was not turned in simply because you
| ulun una that particular amount at any
lMr. Boethe0 will answer Mr.. Rewey
I nN saying THIS was the year lsg2 and we have
ItcOhtiled that year in the treHsureris Of
iltt Win the amount the trustees claim to
haNr received but no such item is incorpor-
httd lnyfe. SO i Is the impression OF this
committee Lhal That money had never been
returned, That was the point.
