In makiag this audit I, as a citizen, demand an itemized statement (in detail) of each and separate vouchers; to whom, for what purpose, and the amount paid, giving list of all exonerations, name of person, location and amount of each exoneration. By giving this request proper atten- tion you can avoid considerable annoyance and expense. Respectfully yours, Coleman Hassler,” Whether the auditors will com- ply with Mr. Hassler's request is not known, as they refuse to say anything concerning the matter, except that the audit so far as the borough affairs are concerned has been made for this year, and there fore do not believe that there is any power that will compel them to make a report until the stated time for next year. On the other hand Mr. Hassler says that he has been advised by reliable and first class legal counsel that the board is compelled to make a complete and detailed statement at any time they are so requested by a citizen of the bor- ough. The outcome of the matter will be awaited with much interest. PERSONAL MENTION Mrs. W. H. Flory is in Wilkes Barre today attending the old home week celebration. a Attorney H. S.
