Claims Taxation on Property Not His

Hon. Guilford Smith of South Wind ham before the board of relief Tues day afternoon protested that he was taxed on land that he did not own. There was a difference of some S3 acres in the list as taxed and as en- tered by Mir. Smith. The towns val uation of $19,600. placed on II houses owned by MT. Smith. was considered by the plaintiff to be overvalued about s5 100 The assessors stated that the property was valued at $19.600 last year and $14.100 this year, so that pre- sumabIy the list had been changed to read the same as it had read previous ly. To this MT Smith replied that this year he had listed the land and the houses separately and he owned B acres less than he thought he did. The fact that the assessors changed this to 90 acres, accruing the increased val- uation. was the cause of complaint
 This meeting was the last for the board Of relief. This morning the as sessors and the board will meet and go over complaints and make adjust mants.
