Whereas, at the June, 1919, meeting
of this board, the road bonds of Sup
ervisor's District No. 2 of Chicasaw
county, Mississippi, were sold to the
Bank of Commerce & Trust Co., of
Memphis, Tenn, for par, accrued in
terest from date of bonds to date of
delivery and premium of $2050.00,
and
Whereas, this board has since pass
ed an amendatory order, reducing the
amount of said bonds to $4,000, in
order to comply with the provisions
of the law under which said bonds
were issued, and
Whereas, the bid of the Bank of
Commerce & Trust Co. was based on
the amount of bonds to be issued and
the premium was approximately $22.-
rs per 81 900, and it would be gross
ly unfair and unjust to said bank to
hold them to the terms of the original
contract of purchase as regards pre-
MUM to be paid for these bonds,

Be it ordered, adjudged and de-
creed that the amount of premium to
be paid for the said road bonds of

ed at the rate of $22.78 per $1,000,
or from $2050.00 to 1881. SO for the
