Show WOMAN COLLECTOR A RECORD-BREAKER LACONTA, N. H. April 8. A report just made by Tax Collector Martha E. Johnson shows that few indeed of the delinquent taxpayers of her territory were able to escape her. She has rounded round-ed up more of them in the last year than any of her predecessors ever showed record of for the same length of time. Miss Johnson, who was elected tax collector of this citv a year ago, has within the last year collected and turned into the citv treasury $90,162.24 with an additionaf $1280.73 on old tax lists and $67.66 in interest. By the end of the month, at which time her term expires, it is expected that she will have secured more funds. Already she has broken all the records held by her male predecessors since 1893. |
