ESTATE IS TIED UP BY DELINQUENT TAX Administrator Asks County and City to Accept $100 and Permit Settling The board of county commissioners, R. H. Crane, as administrator, with the will annexed, of the estate of Charles Wright, and the city commis- sioners have a problem of delinquent taxes to wrestle with as @ result of Wright's death. He left two lots which are not recorded because of their delinquent taxes and they can't be sold until the title is made good by settlement of the taxes. Administrator Crane referred the matter to the county commissioners and they referred it to the city com- mission. The lots are and 27 in block 14, Flannery and Wetherby ad- dition. There is a bid of $700 on the lots, but Wright left debts of $1100. His Personal estate netted $50 after pay- ing a storage lien on the goods. The taxes due are $264.81. Mr. Crane proposes that $100 be accepted in settlement of the taxes, so that he can pay. the undertaking and doctor bills of Wright out of the sale of the lots. Sale will put them on the tax list again, whereas, if the matter hangs fire much longer, the taxes will accumulate and the debts never can be paid, while sale of the ground will be more difficult.
