Check For Amount VIII Be Mailed
RehObOth Woman

The state will send Mrs. Fannie
M. Scott of Rehoboth a check for
$500 this week presumably closing
the case which arose when a $10,-
900 check was sent to her by mis-
take last month.
State Auditor James w. w. Baker
said that the state, having got its
$4,000 back safely, is ready to send
Mrs. Scott the $500 which the Gen
eral Assembly appropriated for
damages in connection with the
death Of her son. He was killed in
an accident which she claims re-
suited from the negligence of a
state employee.
Mrs. Scott had asked for $4,000
in damages. A bill to pay her that
amount was introduced, but was
amended to cut the amount to 500
before being passed. However, the
amendment was dropped from the
copy of the bill sent to Mr.. Bakers
office, with the result that the state
paid the original amount.
After the check is sent to Mrs
Scott the only remaining features
