COUNCIL AFTERMATH.

Paul McGranaghan called at The
Citizen office on Wednesday and re-
quested The Citizen to state in its
next issue that he was asked to
retire from the meeting before So
licitor w. H. Lee made his appear
ance. Mr.. McGranaghan said he
would stay, claiming that he was a
taxpayer and had right to remain.
Mr.. Lee returned shortly afterwards
and the president asked the borough
solicitor concerning Mr.. McGrana-
ghan's bill. The conversation that
took place was reproduced in our last
issue and therefore we deem it un-
necessary to repeat the conversation.
Mr.. McGranaghan, however, claims
that he was not treated courteofsly
at the hands of the council, especial
ly when he asked few questions
just before adjournment and was
abruptly shut off by one of the coun-
cilmen who moved that the council
adjourn.
