Citizens Of Taylor County Will Pay
Indebtedness

Settling question which has con
fronted the officials of Taylor county
fifteen years, an agreement was reach
ed last week by which holders OF
bonds issued by that county in 1885,
and which were defaulted in 1898, are
to receive SIS per cent of the interest
and principal. The decision to COM
promise was reached at the close of
an all day conference at the Office OF
the Fidelity & Columbia Trust Com
pany between parties interested.
The entire Indebtedness of the
county, including both principal and
interest, is S250,000 of which amount
the bond holders will receive So per
cent. This will be something over
the amount of the issue as put out in
1888. 1t was announced that the
county will raise the money by tax
levy. Only one levy will be made, it
being the intention of the county
officials to wipe out the entire indebt-
CShOoo OllO 1CdI'
The compromise reached last night
is subject to the approval of the Fis-
cal Court of Taylor county and bond
holders, a large number of whom,
however, were present at the confer
ence. Three members of the Fiscal
Court, Judge E. n. Tuckea, J. R. San
ders and J. T.. Moss, composing a COM
mittee representing the county also
were present. Judge Tucker and
W. G. Montgomery, of Elizabethtown,
who represents the bondholders, both
declared the approval of the agree
ment was practically certain.
1t is understood that the original
proposition of Taylor county provided
for settlement of the indebtedness on
so per cent basis, out the .bondhold
ers wanted 55 per cent. An agree
ment on this brsis was made after the
three members of the Fiscal Court
had conferred among themselves just
before the close of the conference
with the bondholders.
The Taylor county bonds grew out
of the attempt to build the old Cum
berland railroad Numerous efforts
had been made to compromise the
case and considerable litigrtion had
been misunderstanding Courier

The Fiscal Court of Taylor county
has ratified the agreement. -
