Chap. 320.—An ACT to authorize the board of supervisors of Nottoway county
to remit the amount due said county by Herman Jackson, its late clerk.

: Approved February 13, 1900.

Whereas Herman Jackson, late clerk of Nottoway county and circuit
courts, during his entire term of office, covering a period of nearly
twenty years, never made out or attempted to collect his fee bills for
services rendered the citizens of the county, and thousands of dollars,
which cannot now be collected, are due his estate; and

Whereas after his death his estate was found to be indebted to the
county of Nottoway in the sum of four hundred and sixty-seven dollars.
nearly all of which crew out of transactions occurring the year before
his death and which he had no opportunity for settling; and

Whereas more than two hundred and fifty of the tax-payers of the
county have petitioned the board of supervisors to remit the debt, and
almost all of the citizens would sign such a petition if time permitted
it to be presented to them; therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the board
of supervisors of Nottoway county mav, in its discretion, remit the
amount due the county by Herman J ackson, its late clerk.

2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
