x ne louowinjr resolution was
offered by Thomson: 2how on this
9th dav of Julv, 1S97, the bondsmen
on the repository bond of the North
county met with the board in the
county clerk's office in answer to
the citation by said board to confer
in rejrard to the county deposit in
said bank. The report of the bonds
men showed that they had on June
19th called upon Receiver Doolittle
of said bank and requested infor
mation as to assets, liabilities, ex
penses, etc. This information being
refused by the receiver, application
was made to Comptroller Eckles
through Senator Thurston for such
information as would enable the
bondsmen to answer reasonable de
mand of said county board. On
Friday, July 2, a letter was received
from Comptroller Eckles stating a
special examiner had been ordered
to go to North Platte to join the re
ceiver and a committee of the
creditors and shareholders in an
examination of the afiairs of said
bank and give fullest information
in every detail. A committee of
the bondsmen sought information
as to when special examiner would
be here, and was informed that one
J. W. Blee had been here and gone,
and that he would return Julty 10th
to meet the depositors and share
holders to select acommittee. Whv
the date was fixed later than the
time for the bondsmen to report to
this board, or why itwas necessary"
for said special examiner to make
two visits, or why said examiner
had tailed to call upon the board or
any of the bondsmen and confer
upon this important matter, the
board has no information. It is
ordered that this hearing be con
tinned until such time as informa-i
tion concerning the condition of
said bank shall be obtained by the
bondsmen, or until the further order
of this board. Hardin and Garrison
voted no; Thomson yes. The reso
lution failed to carry.
The following resolution was
then offered by Hardin Now on
this 9th day of JullS97,the bonds
men on the repository bond of the
the North Platte National Bank to !
Lincoln county met with the board
in the county clerk's office in an
swer to request of said board to
confer in regard to the county de
posits in said bank. On statement
that an examination of the affairs
of the bank was ordered bv the

board that further action be de
ferred for the present. Resolution
