Motion carried. The report follows: Lincoln, Nebraska, December 17, 1920. Fon. Board of County Supervisors, Adams County, Nebraska. Gentlemen: Complying with your instructions we submit the following amended report of the audit and final settlement of the accounts of Chas E. Bruckman, ex -clerk of the District Court of Adarns County for the years 1904 to 1911 inclusive. The basis of settlement is an amicable compromise, there being several points upon which there was an honest difference of opinion, and considerable uncertainty as to the construction that should be given to several law points involved. Breifly stated the facts are as follows: The amount of fees collected by Mr. Brockman in his first term, 1904 to 1907 inclusive, was not sufficient to pay the full amount of the statutory salary of 1.600.00 per annum, while the fees collected in his second term, 1908 to 1911 inclusive, were considerable in excess of the statutory salary. However, included in the fees received and reported in the second term was a considerable amount which was earned in the first term and to that extent the board felt justified in allowing Mr. Bruckman's claim that the same be applied to make good the salary deficit of the first term. A further deduction was made of items of 32.90 in 1908 and -'40.05 in 1909, regarding which there was said to be sorne question of liability. As finally agreed the basis of settlement may be stated as follows: 187 Excess Fees Second Term per Exhibit !, attached: 1908 ( Corrected) 4> 136 .6 8 1909 ( Corrected) 309.90 1910 176.47 1911 1,073.51 Total Less Fees earned in First Term, included in above: Collected in 1908 Collected in 1909 Collected in 1910 446.63 F36.00 40.45 Total 573.08 Less paid County Treasurer, Jan. 5, 1912 963.68 ,696.56 1,536.76 Balance due 159.80 This balance will be paid by Mr. Bruckman to the County Treasurer. The trust funds amounting to e4538.41 in the hands of Mr. Bruckman at the close of his second term, were all turned over to Mr. Tibbets at the time of transfer, except three small items amounting to $10.46 which were 'overlooked at the time, but have since been paid over.

That said premises are well improved, Yon- petitioner having erected a dwelling house with all modern conveniences and 'hams and out buildings on said premises at large expense, and your petitioner resides upon said premises with his wife and family as a homestead. That the public highray running north and south between sections 23 and 24 on the east line of' your petitioner's said ,eighty acres has been designated as a federal highway and the same is being improved and graded along the east line of your petitioner's said eighty acres.

That the driveway leading from the petitioner's premises into the public highway connects with said public highway about 10 to 15 rods north of petitioner's south line, at which point the grade which is being constructed is three feet'five inches high. That said grade entirely cuts off petition s access to the public highway and prevents his ingress and egress to and from his said premises. Your petitioner further shows unto your Fonors that the ordinary course of the waters, coming down the aforesaid draw or surface drain, in times of heavy rains, freshets and melting snows is into, upon and across the public highway and then spreads out over an area of some two to three acres of ground immediately in front of the premises of the said petitioner and on the east side of said highway. Your petitioner farther shows that the said grade so constructed or about to be constructed on said public highway has no bridges, culverts or other means to enable the water to flow in its ordinary course, and that said grade without such bridges will cause Kl of tree water coming down said draw or surface drain to be cast back and upon petitioner's premises.to his.great damage and to the damage of the use and enjoyment of his dwelling, barn yard and orchard, W14777r0R111 your petitioner prays your Honorable Body to reouire a bridge to be placed in said grade north of petitioner's drive -way sufficient to permit the waters to flow through and across and Spread out an the east side of said road and to place a bridge in said grade south of the south line of the petitioner's premises of sufficient size to enable the waters so flowing through the bridge north of petitioner's drive -way to flow back and across the highway to the west siong the usual course of drainage thus and thereby relieving petitioner's premises from the additional burden of carrying all the waters coming down said draw or surface drainage which heretofore have never been cast upon your petitioner's Premises. Your petitioner further prays your Honorable Body to provide for and construct a bridge on the center line of petitioner's drive -way connecting with the highway from the west line oT the highway to the grade being constructed, to enable petitioner to have agress and ingress from and to his premises and to enable the waters in times of heavy rains, spring freshets and melting snows which naturally flow down on the west side of said highway and along petitioner's east line, to follow their usual and natural course and not to be cast back, held and compounded upon your petitioner's premises.

First quarterly report, ed placed on file. of a Commissioner to examine into the in said petition was read, and the Chairman Honorable Board of County Supervisors, Adams County, Nebraska. Gentlemen: of a Commissioner to examine into the propo- said petition, was read and the Chairman xes levied for the year 1920 of lot twelve, At 12 o'clock noon, the Board recessed s of the ex -clerk of the District Court, Lincoln, Nebraska, April 18, 1921. Complying with your instructions we have made as thorough investigation as possible Of the funds passing thru the hands of the Clerk of the District Court of Adams County from January 4, 1912 January 5, 1921, inclusive, a period of nine years. It has been found to be a most difficult task and the result of our labor as shown in the forming a part of this report is far from being satisfactory to us, and unavoidably contains a great of items regarding which there is Uncertainty. Many items of fees and costs payable to witnesses, litigants, lawyers or to the County or Supreme Court, are shown, without date, as, "Paid, Receipt On file" or "Check by mail". Many others as paid at a certain date, but no check can be found showing payment. Many items are shown as paid, we have reason to believe were not paid, but which bear the apparent signature of the payee. In if no cancelled check can be found, our position is difficult indeed. To illustrate the situation we will cite a few instances of fees repor4ed to have been Clerk of the District Court of Adams County to the Clerk of the Supreme Court of Nebraska.

It is possible that Mr. Tibbets can show payment of some of these items, but we have been unable to find evidence of payment. Below is a list of the items referred to as the Schedule with such quotations and remarks as space will allow. Asexplained in this report, some of the items are of a somewhat; tentative character and may be satisfactorily cleared up. On the other hand, there are quite likely to be additions brought to light by reason of persons making claims through the present clerk. Some instances of this kind have already oacured, some of which have been included in our schedule, while others have not because of the uncertainty of the case:. For example, after we had completed our list, Mr. Watkins of the Democrat handed ua a memorandum calling attention to the fact that he had not received payment of printers'fees in two cases where publication was had in 1919, namely: Appearance Docket 24- 85 -Cole v. Craig $15.25 Appearance Docket 24- 51-Huckfeldt v. Eisley 15•�5 In both these cases it would appear that the Clerk closed the cases without collecting printers' fees, altho same were listed as costs in the Appearance Docket. In one o.f these cases Mr. Tibbets was a party defendant. Page 54 Items of Trust Funds in Judgment Ledger 3, Not paid over by Lem Tibbets to Lucia Dillenbach It Mary Beatty 159 D. D.

In the annual report for the year 1912, we notice that he reports excess fees of $44.87 cannot find that he ever paid this surplus to the County Treasurer. Respectfully submitted, WIGGINS-BABCOCKCOMPANY By H. S. Wiggins $.uonlementa y Report �wri. II ■ r Hastings, Nebraska, April 23, 1921. Honorable Board of County Supervisors, Adams County, Nebraska. Gentlemen: Since presenting our report of April 18, 7.921, regarding the trust funds of the office of Clerk of District Court, which were apparently not turned over by Ex -Clerk Lem Tibbets to his successor, Lucia Dillenbach, January 6, 1921, we have spent nearly two days going over the report in detail. with Mr. Tibbets, in order to allow him to produce, in the time available, evidence of payment of any of the items with which he stodd charged. In the course o f our examination a few small items have been found thatwill add to the amount charged, and a number have' been cleared, as will: appear in the following statement: Trust Funds Amount charged as per recapitulation on page 19 Of report of April 18, 1921 2,256.91 Amount added as per Exhibit #1 16.75 Total Amount deducted as per Exhibit #2 2,273.66 236.01 Balance 2,o37.65 In the matter of the printers fees of 130.50, due Mr. Watkins of the Democrat, reported on page 4 of our report of April 18, 1921, we have not charged these to Mr. Tibbets as we do not know whether he is legally responsible for his failure to collect these fees. This is a question which sould, we think, be referred to the County Attorney and handled as he may advise. Mr. Tibbets has not been able to show us, in the time at our disposal, where or how he has applied the amount paid in by Mr. U. S. Rohrer in December last, in cases where he says Mr. Rohrer owes him for unpaid costs. The amount is This should be added to, the balance shown above, unless Mr. Tibbets can explain same. Mr. Tibbets may be able to shorn some other items for which he should have credit as having been paid prior to the time he turned over the office to Miss Dillenbach, but we can not give him credit for items which he has paid or may continue to pay, subsequent to the time he relinquished the office; primarily for the reason`"• : that he can not and should not make any entries in the records after the close of his term, therefore all trust funds should pass through the hands of his successor. We have in one instance, and with the consent of Miss Dillenbach, given him credit for an item of trust funds paid out after the close of his term of office, namely: Appearance Docket 25 - 151 - $24.50, for Abstract which was paid to L. H. Blackledge, April 9, 1921, and for which Judge Blackledge receipted in the docket. Obviously it is not possible for Miss Dillenbach to keep clear records of trust funds paid out during her term of office by any one but herself, and any further payments made by Mr. Tibbets directly to payees will inevitably lead to confusion.

Wiggins, Public Accountant. This settlement was completed on Nov. 15th. The total amount paid over by Yr. Tibbets as a result of an examination of all of his books has been $2699.65, he having paid $2037.65 to lass Lucia Dillenbach, our present Clerk of District Court, on April 26th lat. • 264 As to the crimina prosecution against Mr. Tibbets, he was arraingned in District Court on Nov. 15th and entered a straight and unqualified plea of "guiltyto a charge of Forgery, with intent to defraud, as, fully set out in the Fourth Count of the Information. No extenuation circumstances of any kind or nature were mentioned in fact nothing but a straight and unqualified plea of "guilty" as charged would have been accepted. Under the law the Court has a right, -either upon a plea of "guilty" or upon a conviction, to enter and order susponding further proceedings and to parole the defendant, in case he considers that the defendant will refrain from unlawful acts in the future, In this case the Court took into consideration the advance age of the defendant, the condition or his health, the fact that he has already suffered immeasureably because fo the filing of criminal complaint against him, and further was of the opinion that Mr. Tibbets will refrain from any unlawful acts in the future, so entered an order paroling him to Dean Charles Tyner for two years under he following terms and conditions: 1. The defendant is to pay all the costs of the prosecution. 2. The defendant is to refrain from any unlawful acts during the term of the probation. 3. The defendant is not to leave the jurisdiction of Court without permission. 4. The defendant is to report in Court at such times as the Court or the County Attorney may direct. This mention of the case is made here because of the fact that the articIetin'the Hastings Daily Tribune on Nov. 16th was, in some of its statements, very erroneous and misleading,. and'did not eorrectly state the facts. Both this Board and the public generally are entitled to know the truth regarding the disposition of this case the same as all other cases.
