of the bonds, but the majority of the
committee wanted to reduce the rate
to the lowest possible point and final.
ly the report that will be made to the
court will be unanimous.
The roads will have less money than
they had last year. The old rate is
twenty cents for roads. On the new
assessment it will take slightly over
ten cents to raise as much money as
the old rate raised. A rate, therefore
of seven cents will only secure about
two-thirds of the money for roads that
the county had the past year.
The entire committee was present
except Squire Davis. The following
members signed the report: Squires
English, Hull Guest and Denton.
