To the Hon. Board of Grand Ju~
rors special term Lee Superior Court
1919.
We, the County Commissioners
of Roads and Revenues, Lee County,
Ga beg leave to make this our re-
port. We have had no funds come
| into our hands since our last report
and beg to submit for your consid-
Grafton reports by the various coan-
| ty officers which speak for them
selves. In this connection we beg
to report that Road Tax Collectors
flor Leesburg District has not made
any report to us, or, as far as we
know, has not been paid over any
money that might have been col
leeted by him. As far as we can
tell from the various reports without
special audit they appear to be in
a good form and alright. We also
beg to advise that our Road Tax
Collector from Palmyra District has
not been very diligent in his work
and collected as much III our iudg~
ment as should have been collected.
This being the last day of our term
| in office we have thought it well to
lgive a final account of our steward
Iship. We have endeavored to full
fill our every obligation under the
duties that have been placed upon
us as commissioners, with what sue
cess that may be determined from
the result of our efforts. And while
we do not wish to appear conceited
we feel that we have given able SER
vice to our county. We have en-
deavored to he progressive and yet
we have been conservative, we have
been lenient ana yet we have tried
to be firm in our business Judgment
and the exercises Of our official acts
In conclusion we wish.to eytend to
the people who have contributed
greatly to the pleasure that we have
felt in serving them. We especially
feel that we have contributed MAJ
terially to the prosperity and COM
fort OF our county. We especially
call attention to the beautiful court
house which has been our privilege
to aid in the erection, and to the
material advantage that must come
from the readication of the cattle
tick in the county which has been
the result of our untiring efforts.
