it is impossible to tell what particular warrants
were taken up and cancelled on account of the
issue of any particular bond. It was ascertained,
however, that the total amount of the warrants
and bonds described as having been taken up
and cancelled, is many thousand dollars less
than the amount of bonds issued in their stead,
although many warrants appear on this record
for larger amounts than were issued, as shown
by the commissioner’s record and the warrant
stubs; some appear twice for the same amount,
other appear for different amounts, and one
appears three times in the aggregate to $447.92 ;
this warrant is numbered 447 ; the warrant stub
shows that it was issued for $19.00.
The official record of the Commissioners’
proceedings makes no mention of its allowance.
This liability grew from nothing in the commis-
sioner’s book to $19 in the warrant book and
made its final appearance in triplicate as an off-
set to $447.92 of bonded indebtedness of Grant
County.
