A man with one foot off shouldn't
have to pay for wear and tear on the
sidewalks, in the shape of street tax
as much as man with two feet.
That is the argument advanced by
Dan Peel, an aged negro, who was in
Police Court this morning on a charge
of having failed to liquidate this debt
to the city. And he got away with it
too, although it took special meet
ing of the City Commissioners to re
lieve him.
The negro admitted that he hadn't
paid his So tax.
'Ah has foot off," he explained
'and Alb can't walk much on de t'othel
i one. SO how come it All has to pa,
jes' as much as man wild two feet?'
Peel said that he was 10 years ole
during the time. of slavery, which
would make his age at least 60. Al
examination was made, and sure
enough, one of his feet was missing
although the big shoe he wore hid lii
misfortune.

could not relieve him of the fine, tha
