Dearborn County Commissioners Proceedings – Jun 1882

Proceedings of the June 1882 Session of the Dearborn County, Indiana commissioners appeared in:
Lawrenceburg Register – 22 Jun 1882 – Page 3, Column 3

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT.

The proposition of James Walker to put lightning rods on the new county asylum was accepted, and he was given the contract to do the work.

The Board fixed the rate of tax for county purposes at 55 cents on the $100, and also levied 50 cents for each taxable poll for county purposes.

Julius Severin was awarded the contract for putting an iron roof on the smoke house at the new county asylum.

George Givan was appointed Inspector of Elections in the upper voting precinct of Manchester township.

The Board ordered that all Township Trustees made a written report to the Board at the September session, showing the number of poor in each of their respective townships who are drawing aid from the county. Such report to give the name of the person, the amount received, their age and physical condition, the number dependent on the person receiving the aid, how long they have been a county charge, and any other information that may be of benefit to the Commissioners in determining what disposition they can best make of their cases.

Claims of Catharine Lang (sole legatee of Francis Lang, deceased,) for $1,911, and claim of Ex-Treasurer Lods for $525, were allowed. Mr. Lang and Mr. Lods, while acting in the capacity of Treasurer of the county, paid and accounted to the Board of Commissioners for more money than was legally and justly due from them on account of county revenue, by reason of the fact that they were not allowed by the Board the fee of one percent, on all disbursements of school taxes by them disbursed, and the claims were allowed for this reason.

McMullen and Downey are reappointed county attorneys at a salary of $150.

Dr. Vincent appointed physician for the poor of York and Miller townships at a salary of $42 per year.

Dr. Fermier appointed physician of Jackson township for $32 per year.

Dr. Henry appointed physician of poor of Center township at salary of $150.

John D. Haynes presented to the Board a petition representing about 176 signers, praying for a bridge across North Hogan creek near Lytle Park’s residence. After hearing the representatives of the petitioners present, the matter was taken under advisement until the June session.

George Bruce, Court House janitor, in view of the fact that he had been at a great deal of extra expense and labor in cleaning the Court House and other work by reason of the late flood, is given the sum of $100 for extra services. “Dick” performed considerable meritorious service during the time mentioned, and was undoubtably entitled to some recognition for the same, and the action of the Board in the matter is commendable. “Dick” was somewhat surprised when the sum was presented to him, as he was not expecting anything of the kind.

Dearborn County Commissioners’ Proceedings – Dec 1880

Proceedings of the December 1880 Session of the Dearborn County, Indiana Commissioners appeared in:
Lawrenceburg Register – 16 Dec 1880 – Page 4, Column 2

COMMISSIONERS’ COURT.

The Commissioners have abated the delinquent taxes on church parsonages.

William Ritter is allowed $40 per year regular allowance.

H. H. Sutton appointed physician for the poor of Washington township at a yearly salary of $35.

The contract for the use of the Selden bookkeeping is renewed, and the county is given the perpetual right to use the same for $700.

The County Commissioners are almost buried under petitions for the opening of new and repairing of old highways.

All order was made that in no case would any compensation be allowed for medical attention rendered other than by the regular township physician, unless it was in a very desperate case. Another leak stopped.

The Commissioners have had under consideration for several years the feasibility of erecting a suitable Poor Asylum for the paupers of our county. The expense of providing for the poor under the present system has grown to be cumbersome and expensive. The Board on Tuesday took under advisement the propriety of erecting a new building on the poor farm, believing that in so doing it would be a matter of economy to the taxpayers, and the poor could be better cared for than at present. Mr. Bosse, the new Commissioner, thinks that we need a poor Asylum, but at this time it would not be economical to build. Mr. Briggs and Mr. Hoff are of a different turn of mind and think it is economy to build. Auditor Pattison was ordered to go to Floyd county and prepare a plan for a building similar to the poor building of that county. The cost of the building, if erected, will not exceed $9,000. The Board will meet in special session on January 24th for the further consideration of the subject.
