Report of investigating committee:


To the board of supervisors of the county of Green: Your committee appointed to investi gate the frauds practiced on the county com- menced their investigation on Monday, Dec. 10, A. D. 1855. Calling to their assistance Asa Richardson and James Bintliff, they continued the examination of the records and papers be- longing to the office of the clerk of the board of supervisors from day to day until the 21st inst.


The matter is involved in much obscurity, owing to the destruction and mutilation of rec- ords and papers. We are therefore unable to

make as full and perfect a report as we could desire; we have, however, detected frauds com- mitted from the year 1848 to 1854 inclusive.
