to your Honorable body that these lots
were originally intended to be leased to
the Planters Gin Company and spe-
ci8l meeting was held in July, 1912 for
that purpose. AT this meeting as or
der was granted leasing these lots to
the Gin Company for $5 90 per lot.
Section 470S of the Code requires the
Superintendent of Education to record
leaseS Of Sixteenth Section Land but
fails to say who shall pay for such re-.
cording and 1t has been the practice of
the Various superintendents to refuse
to place leases on record. In the pre-
sent instance, the lease ordered by the
Board was executed but never placed
on record and now we are recommen-
ding that new lease be executed dat
ing from the 26th. day of July, 1912.
