manner. The greater portion OF our dolngs Will
be found by the finance committee IN checking
UP the County Clerk and County treasurer
In=accordance with the recommendations made
by the County Property committee at the last
session of the Board we have placed in the hiStOr-
zeal room two glass cases, the work having been
done by T. a. Bracket of Lancaster, and we
paid him for his work and material the sum OF
one hundred and siNty-fve (Sl65.0O) dollars:

his use, as recommended, the sum OF tWenty-tour
and 15-1OO (S2415) dollars.

Of thirty $4,000 dollars, and the same has been
paid to the company at the rate Of $50 per

for the use of the water in the court house and
courthouse grounds for the sum OF fifty $500
dollars yer pear, and the same has been paid.
The recommendation of the County Property
committee to have the detention and bath rooms
changed we have not done for the reason that
1y,I O,,l-i no
present board would because of necessity make
other recommendations which ought to be done
before this is as the residence is in need OF GER
tain -cpairs and we have therefore let the matter
90 over until this session of the board.
All of which is respectfully submitted
Dated November 18th, 1911.
