Dunn Refuses Payment

Commissioners ordered Harry
Dunn, county auditor. to pay the
s11,50O Of the remaining $4,000 due
Weaver on the poor farm building.
Dunn refused, saying he would
wait to see"
In consideration for accepting the
building from Weaver, the latter.
through his attorney, Merle N
Walker, dismissed an injunction suit
pending in Circuit Court at Danville,
on change of venue, that has held
. up award Of the contract for the
new colored orphans home for
months.
The suit was brought by Robert
r. Roach, said to be a relative of
Weaver, as a taxpayer. When the
suit was dismissed, commissioners
awarded the contract for the new
home to the State Construction
Company for S101.00O. The building
will be brick, with slate roof.
When Dunn refused to pay the
s11, 500 Weaver grew angry, com
missioners said, and threatened to
have the suit brought again, but
the contract was signed in the mean
time.
The Times made personal inves-
tigation Of both JuIetta and poor
farm buildings. A reporter dug
brick out of the inside wall Of the
new poor farm building with a small
key and his fingers.

so that bishop win hold office for
eight years instead OF for life. There
ARE also elements favorable to a
ruling that one bishop shall hold con.

In discussing union with the Meth.

Acceptance OF the plan for unifica.

at the Soldiers Home last Friday.

The State Board is keenly inter-
ested in juvenile delinquency and

branches in this county, with view
OF ascertaining whether or not de-
pendents are being adequately cared
for. Miss Vaile stated that the fact
OF many minor children smoking Gig

brought to her attention and sug-

social activity for the young people
and believes that the community Is
very fortunate in having a man like
Mr.. Millar as a citizen.
