dnplicatohad not been delivered in time, but
that contention is also overruled. Two ques
tions arise in tho matter of the 1890 bond,
viz: First, that tho collector was elected
April 1st, 1891, for a terra ef three ytars, ex
piring April 1st, 1S97. Tho Act of Assombly
provides that the collector "ahull wil
truly collect and pay over, or account for the
whole of the tax moneys embraced iu the
duplicate which shall bo delivered to lilm,
etc."

duplicate until December, 1897, long after his
term endod. Under this state of affairs it is
questionable if sureties a
duplicate delivered eight months aftor the
expiration oi tno collector's term of otlico
and a year and some months after the time it
should have been in his hands.
secondly, the claim is made that the
balance was not llrwl . tlm n.u ..t ....
audit but is "estimated" at sixteen thousand
and so many dollars. Thn Iml.n,-,. i .i,
matter should not bo arrived at by au esti-
mate but ongbt to be determined exactly
from the accounts.
The Judeo said he felt tlm
sponslblllty rested on tho proposition, that
the duplicate was not placed in the hands of
mo collector wuutn tho legal limit. There
is no question of the fact that, hn
every cent collected in 1890, which leaves the
oare uaicea question, whether the bail can bo
held for taxes he never collector! rii.,,ii.
cate he never received.
Tho Act of 1807 was quoted by one side
and, after a careful consideration, it is a mat
ter of grave doubt as to what effect shall be
given its provisions. It was signed May 11th,
1897, and whether It was passed for the ex
press purpose of meeting this case, or at the
request of others in a similar position, we
cannot say: but. the laneuacn annm. tn in
dicate it was passed to meet this case. How
ever, inai is not a matter of great Importance.
This Act revives the liability of tax collectors
aud gives them power to collect delinquent
taxes from all persons, whether in tho dis
trict, or out of it. Th. Act provides that in
all cases In which two years, tho limitation
of the warrants in the duplicate, have ex
pired, and In all cases whern thn nnv,. Bn.i
authority of tax collectors has expired, or
shall expire during the year 1497, by virtue
of th. expiration of their torin of olllco, and
the collector has, or shall become, liable for

discharged their duties proporly lie would

Iu reference to 1890 bond, tho court dis
charged the rulo as to tho school taxes, but
allowed the oaw to go to a Jury as to the
borough. Mr. Solialok took exceptions as to
the School Hoard, aud Mr. Wbalen for tho
