NO 1917 TAXES
Editor Lexington-Dispatch:

Editor LeXington-DiSpa
An article appearing in your paper
of December 18th. regarding the
back taxes owed the State of South
Carolina by Lexington County. has
been called to my attention. I quote
herewith a section Of the said article:
According to figures furnished by
the State Treasurers office Lexington
County stands we'll up toward the list
in the amount of back taxes owed to
the State government. There remains
on the books an unsettled balance for
1917 taxes of $100.67, while for 1915
the amount is only s63S.2S. which
will doubtless be further reduced
when the settlement is made with
the Sheriff for executions in his
hands"
The above news item is misleading
and somewhat unjust to the County
officials Of Lexington. A close eX-
animation OF the records will show
that Lexington County owes no money
