|ESTILL PAYS OFF OLD
RAILROAD BONDS
Compromise Effected With Bond
Holders After Long Litigation +
Through All the Courts.

The Irvine Tribune in its current
issue tells of the payment of the old
l. e. A. railroad bonds by Estin coun-
ty as follows:
An event of vast Importance and
much interest to the taxpayers of Es-
till county transpired last week when
the Estill Fiscal Court met in special
session at the court house and receiv-
ed and cancelled the outstanding rail-
road aid bonds which were voted and
issued by the county in 1888 to aid
in the building of the Richmond, Mich
olasville, Irvine and Beattyville rail-
road, now the Louisville and Nash
vile line, from Richmond to Beatty
vile.
3 Fifty bonds of one thousand dollars
each were reissued. The total amount
Of principal and coupons at the time
of payment approximated S7S,000
Judge o. K. holland and .Tr--cs A
Wallace, county treasurer, effected g
compromise with the bond holders
whereby all the bonds and coupons
were surrendered and cancelled on the
payment of S65,000.
This is the end of much dispute anG
litigation with reference to these
bonds. Some years ago holders oi
coupons then due brought suit to en-
force payment. The case was fought
by the county and taken 70 the Unit
ed States Supreme Court which up
held the bondholders. More recently
an action was brought in the Estil
Circuit Court to cancel the bonds
Judgment in favor of the county wa:
rendered in the circuit court, but the
case was reversed by the Court o1
Appeals and validity of the bond:
upheld. 1t was the contention of th'
taxpayers of the county that the elec
tion for the usual of the bonds carried
by fraud and corruption, and that thu
railroad company failed to compl!
with its contract in constructing th'
road. With the payment of the sun
of s65,O0O last week the matter il
finally settled and disposed of. Thi
will relieve the taxpayers of some o
the burden of taxation, and at th'
same time enable the work of improv
ing the county or wagon roads to b.
carried on with increased iyigor.
