M. HOWELL, REPORT OF THE COUNTY AUDITORS. We, the undersigned, Auditors of Lancaster Couuty, do certify, that we have carefully examined the forego ing account of Charles M. Howell, Esq.,! Treasurer of said County, and have compared his vouchers with the same, and find there is a balance in his hands of five thousand, on e hundred and twenty-eight dollars and seventy-niue cents, ($3123,79.) v J Iu view of our recommendation in last year's Report, rolating to outstanding taxes, it appears Collectors have become still more negligent in collecting or paying over to Ihe Treasurer tile outstanding amounts in their sev eral duplicates.. They should be more prompt in their payments, and wo would, therefore, respectfully re commend, that the County Commissioners urge speedy settlement by all delinquent Collectors. " We have exam lord the account of Hugh 8. Gara, Esq., Treasurer of the Board of Prison Inspectors, and find it correct, showing a balance due him by the board of In spector* of six hundred and fifty-seven dollars and sev enty-six cents, ($657,76.) We also examined the account of James Dysart, Esq., Treasurer of the Poor and House of Employment of Lancaster County, and find a balance in his hands of two hundred and thirty-seven dollars and seventy-seven conts, ($237,77 ) Tne liabilities of the County for loans from indi vldnal at 6 per cent, per annum, at th» preeeut time, are $140,000, In witness whereof, we have hereunto set our hands at the County Commissioners' Office, this 23rd day of January, 18.77.
