0066 These accounts were presented to the next County Court with a request that the same be levied for, which being added to other county expenses were assessed accordingly as Poll tax & on real and personal property collected by the Sheriff and paid on to the parties entitled to receive it. So you see the overseers had nothing to do with the assessments nor the disbursements. We hold our next on annual meeting on the 1st Saturday in May next and if we are advised there are funds to meet our demand shall make requisition to meet some outstanding debt which may have been contacted during the last four years & for supplies for the poorhouse for the ensuing year. I am sorry that I cannot give you more positive information but refer you to Mr. Wm H. Gaines who is the presiding Justice. Very Respectfully Your Obt Svt Wm D Cooper President O.P. Fauquier Co. Va
