Any action by the Collector (ander power given him by the accetptnnce of his roll) after the 14th day of Dec., is illegal, unless the time has been exâ€" tended by Council, and no action of any sort can be taken by him after the 1st day of February ; even though the time has been still further extended ; the Council, as I have said, having no power to make further extensions. 6.

That your Treasurer credit up the fall amount of taxes collected on roll, and charge up the amount paid out for Collectors‘ salaries. By printing in your Auditors‘ report each year the byâ€"laws passed during the year, your Rateâ€"payers would bave a much better knowledge of the byâ€"laws of the Township.
