ANOTHER EXPLANATION.
TOO YOUNG; TOO OLD,
AND DOUBLY AS
SESSED.

The names of Wilson Rodgers,
E. r. Cunningham, |. E. Rhodes,
Sam Knight, Richard Terrence
and w. E. Davis, appeared in
the delinquent poll tax list, re-
Gently published in The Brandon
News, and since the publication
of this list these parties have all
advised me that they were not OF
age at the time of the assessment
and some. of them not yet Il
years old, and were, therefore,
not subject to poll tax but were
enormously assessed.
The name of B. 0. Meadows
and J. S. Terrence appeared in
this list and these parties now
come forward and informed me
that they are too old to pay poll
tax and were therefore, erro-
neously assessed.
And now comes, Sam Bratcher,
A. E. Purvis and Henry Measles
who complain that their names
appeared in the delinquent list.
although they had paid their
taxes before the LIST of February.
In regard to these parties | wish
to say that an investigation of
the records show that they paid
their taxes under the names of
G. p. Rratcher. Arch PuryiS and
w. H. Measles but the books
show that they were also assess
ed with poll tax under the names
of Sam Bratcher, A. E. Purvis
and Henry Measles and were
published as delinquents under
the latter names. So it is very
clear that these parties were
doubly asses sed and this explains
why their names were published.
Now, while I am not at all
responsible for the erroneous as
sessment referred to above, l
take pleasure in giving the above
explanation so that these parties
may be indicated and placed in
the proper attitude before the
public.
With best wishes for all, | am
