Board Of Directors that it will be to
the best interests of said The Jules

OF Directors to accept the amount of
irrigation taxes for which said land
was sold, and the subsequent taxes
to date, less the interest, now there
fore,
BE 1T RESOLVED, by the Board
OF Directors Of The Juiesburg Irriga-
ton District, that the offer of said
T. A. Smith to pay the full sum of
Six Thousand ($6,000.OO) Dollars as
payment of said tax sale certificate
No. 1914, and all subsequent taxes to
date, less the interest on same be ac-
cepted by the Board of Directors of
Inc Julesburg Irrigation District.
BE 1T FURTHER RESOLVED,
that the County Treasurer, as Treas
urer for The Juiesburg Irrigation Dis
trict be authorized to accept the said
sum Of Six Thousand ($6,O0O. .OO) DOL,
lars as payment in full for the irriga-
ton taxes due said The Julesburg
Irrigation District under said tax sale
certificate, and in full payment of
the subsequent taxes accrued since
the date Of said sale, to and includ-
ing the year 1920.
The above resolution was adopted.
The matter of building a ditch or
flume for the drainage of the land
belonging to. Mrs. VIM. Yahn was
thereupon taken up and discussed by
the Board. After being fully advised
in the matter, the Board concluded
that the District was not responsible
for the seepage of Mrs-Yahn's land,
and therefore did not feel justified to
build said ditch or flume, as the land
owned by Mrs. Yahn was not seeped
until after the building of the ditch
above said land.
No further business being present.
ed, the Board adjourned to meet
