The committee had went over the ground carefully and decided upon what street improvements should be made and the work had been more than carried out. They had done the work well and had some $200 yet to their credit. Capt. Crandell stated that chairman Touchburn was a self-willed man and would not take his committee into his confidence. He would not accuse him of being dishonest, but there was room for doubt. He represented the great expen- diture of the council, nearly $5000 passed through his hands, and he refused to give an account of it. He had visited the town clerk’s office and on looking OVcr the pay list seen that it was not signed by the chairman. The roll was not signed properly. Coun.
