MONTHLY MEETING
Dispose of Routine Business and
Discuss Good Roads for
County.

The County Board OF Supervisors Of
Henrico met In regular monthly SEES
sion Tuesday and transacted consid-
OF the board was in his seat when
Chairman Saunders called the meeting
to order.
A large number OF bills were ordered
paid and besides the regular routine
business the supervisors took up fog
discussion the matter of improving the
roads OF the county
This brought them to the point Of
speeding autoists and the officers were
asked for report on their success
in putting stop to reckless and fast
roads. The officers reported that they
had made several arrests since the
special meeting of the board some time
ago when they took up the matter OF
fast driving with the idea of putting
stop to II.
The supervisors expressed satisfac-
ton with the work that is being done
and admonished the officers to continue
their work and to arrest all violators
OF the speed laws of the county.
The dog tax question did not come
up for discussion. The recent action Of
the supervisors in ordering the county
treasurer to put the dog taxes on the
personal property tax slips is not in
tended to go into effect until next year.
The delinquent dog taxes are now being
collected by the eonstab les as provided
by the State law.

APPEAL GRANTED
WESTERN BOARD
Trustees of State Hospital Upheld
in Contention That Richmond
Court Has Jurisdiction.

An appeal was granted Tuesday by
the supreme Court of Appeals in the
case OF the Western State Hospital
against the General Board of State
Hospitals for the Insane. involving the
MNrkland property in Amherst coun-
ty.
The appeal was taken to the high
est court In the State after the petit
ton of the Western Hospital had been
dismissed in the Circuit Court of Rich
mond on the ground that the local
court had no jurisdiction.
The action of the Supreme Court
of Appeals tends to indicate that tIA
judges of that tribunal believes ttt
Circuit Court of Richmond did have
jurisdiction. under subdivisions 5 and
6 of sections 3214 and 32l6 of the
Virginia Code. The granting of the
appeal means that the case, which
has been in the courts for several
years, will be argued for the last time,
probably, in the Court of Appeals at
the fall term.
Wilied to Hospital.
In his will Mr. Sidney Murkland. a
wealthy dry goods merchant in Lynch
burg, decreed that after several be-
quests to his relatives had been met
that the residue of his estate should
go to the Western State Hospital
where his son, Sidney Price MurkIand,
was being cared for. The section of
his Will making this provision follows,
verbatim. as shown in the record, ITO
trustees State Hospital. stanton.
where my son, Sidney Murkland. now
is cared for. the entire balance of my
property. rial and personal. the in
crease from which to be used by said
trustees for purchase extra comforts,
patients, said hospital"
The Western Hospital bought in the
last remaining parcel of Mr., Murk-
lands property in Amherst county, for
STOPS, paying $3.50 to clear the title.
The Corporation Court of Lynchburg
ruled that $4,000 being the residue OF
Mr.. Murkland's state, the property
worth that much should go to the trus-
tees of the institution, and appointed
G. f. Caskie as Commissioner to make
the transfer.
After the trusteeu acquired title TO
the property, the Legislature accepted
the property In the name OF the State.
The General Board then ordered the
trustees to sell the property and burn
the money over to the board to pur-
chase more suitable site for an cpl
leptic colony
Feeling that a somewhat personal
trust had been reposed in them by
Mr.. Murkland, the trustees declined to
comply with the boards orders, and
filed petition in the Circuit Court of
Richmond. under the provisions OF Sec
tons 32i4 and 32l6. which say that all
suits nequity in which the common
wealth at large is interested may be
triable there. Judge Grinnan ruled
that the Circuit Court had no juris
dictton and dismissed the petition on
