Road improvement and various

constituted the major matters
attended to:
In accordance with a judgment

rens at last weeks term of I
:ourt, the judgment ruling that
ill lands of ' the late Volney Ellington.
t'f Bolivia, were the pro-! ,
perty of the University of North ;
Carolina, the commissioners re- ,
ieved said lands from all taxa:ion.
The read from Buren Stanley's,11
vhere it intersects the Little '
River and Whiteville road to1
highway No. 17, was recommend-1
:d to be taken over by the state
"or maintenance.
Due to error in double listing

>90.00 in taxes.
Due to error in listing, lands
>f B. C. Woodrad in Waccamaw

n taxes. 11
The road in Town Creek town
ship from No. 17 to the River 11
toad, through the Gravely Planta-1J
I 1
.ion, was recommended to be ^
aken over for maintenance.
Nine acres of woodland, valued j
it $8.20 per acre, owned by Man- j
ey C. Smith or J. O. Smith, was^
irdered after listed for taxes for 11
he past five years. Failure for | <
his property to be heretofore Jisted
was ascribed to error. j i
The road from Bolton to Sup-jl
ily, through the Green Swamp (i
ind Makatoka sections, was re- j
commended to the State for hard | i
iurfacing. ! |

the Brunswick coast offers the j(

to have both hoteb and boats be-!1

denying that we need them. j
The boys who left here two, '

called them, went without any

themselves made any fuss about 1
