We have examined the dockets of
the various Justices of the Peace and
Notaries Public, who submitted their
dockets, through a committee appoint
ed for this purpose, and herewith sub
nit the report of such committee:
We, the committee appointed to eX-
anime the books of the j. P.'s and
N. P.'s of Cobb County, submit the
following report:
We find only five j. P.'s have sent
in their books for examination, as
follows: 991st, 989th, 1395th, 1O17th,
and 845th; we haxe examined these
and found them to be neatly and cor

the attention of the committee that
some of the J. P.'s of this county have
collected money and failed to turn it
over to the proper persons. We re-
quest that those J. P.'s who have not
sent in their dockets for examination
do so at once as required by law.
