ROCKINGHAM COUNTY'S


Reidsville, August 8.-The Rock
ingham county tax rate was Off
cially set today at $1.25, the rate
that prevailed last year, instead of
$1.45 as tentatively announced and
based on the budget made up Tor
the ensuing year.
The Rockingham county board of
commissioners in their regular
monthly ,neeting at the courthouse
in Wentworth today went carefully
through the budget and made re
ductions which rendered an in
creased lax :'ate unnecessary.
The revised budget was officially
approved and adopted. Theb oard
also approved the resistance of some
$4,000 worth of bonds, with time
extension of probably three years,
thus aiding the county's financial

not easily answered and a source
of accurate information must be

For the history of the Otto
buildings on Main Street, now be-

the new postoffice building, we are
indebted to J. F. Cooper, who has
a virtual library of information
about early business transactions
and buildings.
Jane Woodland purchased the two
lots and in 1882 erected a two
story frame building on them for
use as a millinery and dry goods

others for debt incurred to them.
