The last of an $4,000 bond issue of
1924 that paid for one mile of hard
surface road in three different di-
rections from the city was liquidated
entirely and wiped off the records
when the county RENTED a few davs
for $4,000 of securities dated Sep

Part of the money for the payments
through the years came from a State
highway remittance for the mile of
pavement extending westward toward
Oxford, which was settled for shortly
after the Henderson-Oxfor road was
hard-surfaced.
Another payment was one $1,000
serial bond of the county home issue
of some ten or twelve years ago. On
that issue, which originally was for
100000, a total of $4,000 remains out
standing.
Total payments of county obliga-
tons made this month amounted to
$4,000 in principal and $1,097.5O in
interest charges.
Figures on the remittances were
obtained today at the office of G. w.
