Shrivel giving logical reasons for levying another assessment at this time. The letter stated, among other things, the following: The last previous assessment was levied on January 10th, 1985, to clean up an approximate Indebtedness of eighteen hundred dollars, and to use the balance of about six thousand dollars to clean- out the property and put it in shape for leasing. Work was started ln February, 1935. Cleaning out the old workings was a much greater undertaking than had been anticipated. Also lt V,taV " Number 29 . .... JUNIOR GRADUATES Thomas Jud.40 Max E. Kuy.
