Committee
From the report of the committee who ex-
amined the books and accounts of the office of
probate clerk and ex-officio clerk of the board
of commissioners, it will be seen that a large
number of duplicate warrants have been issued
and that others have been raised to much
larger amounts that they appear by the stubs
to have been issued for; and others have been
issued without being allowed by the board of
commissioners. These warrants are entered in
the bond record as being exchanged for bonds
and cancelled, showing that they have been
paid in full by the county, for the amounts
borne on them when presented for such ex-
change and cancellation.
That this county has been shamefully, wan-
tonly and systematically plucked, ’plundered
and robbed, the evidence is direct, positive and
conclusive.
The absence from the vaults of the office
of all material bills, and of cancelled warrants
