AMERICAN SURETY CO.
TO SETTLE WITH BOROUGH
FOR AUMAN DUPLICATES.
The American Surety Co., bonds

11924, 1925 and 1926 duplicates, dur-

[$7,228.12. To offset this the hor

tax liens which will have to be de

has $3500 of a cash deposit made
with it by Mr. Auman when he se

$3860.
The only unsettled point at issu
