County Expenses.
Mr. Editor: —Two eommunientinns
from Mnrion nnJ one from J. Henry
Wood, have recently appeared in the
Herald. Allow me space to offer a few
practical thoughts suggested from read
ing said articles. Marion writes like a
man. who thinks, that our expenses
and Taxes, can be reduced, and I agree
with him, that at the next Election for
officers front Governor to Constable, the
people should vote for no man. who is
opposed to a reduction of expenses.even
though it should interfere with him in
dividually. T will here state, that the
pay of none of the present officers, can
and onght. to he interior and with.
hut the change in pay should be made
applicable to those, who may be eketed
in January 1877, and those who are
elected then, can have no right to com
plain, if they seek anil obtain an office
of reasonable pay. According to the
figures of Marion, our county officers,
exclusive of Judge Robinson, received
in 1871. the suui of $2 800. Of this
amount, the Ordinary reeei'.ed, for at
tending to the duties of the old Inferior
Court, the sum 0f?250. The Collector
and Receiver, each BLO4O and 5912,
nd the Treasurer 8600. The duties
of the Inferior Court should he taken
from the Ordinary and placed in the
hands of Commissioners, elected by the
Grand .Jury, as is the case in numbers
of counties, or the two hundred and
fifty dollars, should he taken from the
Ordinary and that amount saved. The
offices of Collector and Receiver should
be consolidated and let one man do the
work of both at a Salary of SBOO. which
is good pay for six monthslabor, as the
duties of both offices can be discharged
by one man in that time, lettiug the
State and county pay the Salary of
SBOO, in proportion to the per cent
levied, thus if the State should levy five
tenths of one per cent and the county,
fihree tenths of oue per rent, the State
would pay SSOO and the county would
pay s.°>oo, making the SBOO.
In this connection T will state, that
in the years 1862 and 1863, Mr James
llrook discharged the duties of b' t.h
offices, with great satisf ction to the
people, and I doubt if he received as
much as SBOO, and I believe the present
worthy Collector would ciisctiargc toe
duties of b th offices for that amount,
thus saving a considerable amount to
both Stats and county. Of all the of
ficers in county or State, the pay of the
county Treasurer is the most unreason
able; that officer get* two and one-half
per re it 1 >r receiving and two and im
half per cent for paying out the county
funds. In other words, for receiving
one thousand dollars from the Collector
find paying the same over, perhaps in |
Cvo minutes, to two and sometimes to
one creditor of the county, the 1 rea- urer
receives the sum of fifty dollars, when
you can take one thousand dollars, (if
■you are fortunate enough to have that
amount to spare) -end the same to An
pnsta, have it invested in Stocks or
Bonds and the papers properly trans
feree! for two dollars and fifty rents.and
that too by men. who aro dependent on
receiving and payin': out money for a
support. Thus a privato citizen can
have done for two dollars and fifty
cents, a th’nfr, which will cost the
county, the BMAM. SUM of fifty dollars.
There arc as good and reliable men. as
•the county affords, who are perfect
ly willing to give aqy Bond required by
law and discharge the duties of reae
urcr. for one half the amount now al
lowed; yes, I will go further and say
that by a proper consolidation of that
office with some other, the duties of
Treasurer can he discharged, without
costing the county ONE CENT, and that
by nn officer who can and trill pin
any Bond required. 1 know whereof
I affirm and all the talk about not get
ting responsible men to fill the various
■ offices, if the pay is reduced, on account
of the heavy bonds required is mere
stuff and is done to deceive, as is easily
shown, by reference to Burke county,
one of the largest in the State, when
the Tax Receiver, besides giving the
usual Rond of Receiver, is required to
give the Rond heretofore given by the
Treasurer and docs not receive one
cent for receiving arid paying out the
county funds, arid there are similar
Laws of consolidation in other counties
and should be in Greene. ‘•‘Then why
continue, an office at a cost of SGOO or
BSOO per year, when the duties thereof
can be discharge 1, by competent and
reliable men. for nothing? I disagree
with Marion about the pay of Judge
Robinson and think, that so long as the
county Court sustains iteelf’, his Salary
should not be reduced. These sugges
iious are given for the consideration of
the Grand Jury.to give snchrcconimen
dations, as they think proper, to be car
ried into effect by our worthy and efii~
•eient Representatives. T.\x Payer.

John Armor, the first settler of
Greene county, was born in Ireland,
and at an early age immigrated to Vir
ginia. Aftarwards lie removed to
Greene county, and settled in Greencs
-1 oro’ where he built tlie first house ever
erected by a white man in the now
flourishing city of Groeneshoro. This
house was built on what is known as
the Harper lot. He had five daughters
and one son. The lattordied in youth.
One of his daughters Martha, who
married Holcoui'. e G. Harper, who is
the only member of bis family now
living—lias reached the good old age
of 87 years and still resides in Greerips
boro, with her son iu-law, Philip Clay
ton. Esq. Thcother daughters married
and moved away, lletsy married a
Mr. Shaw, of Morgan county. Some
of her children now Iwe in Madison.
Margaret married a Mr. Dillard, of hei
fa; ily the writor knows but little. —
Isabella married Mr. Miller, and lived
nnd died in Green; shorn,' whore seve al
of her children are still living. Cinthia
was married to Mr. Archibald Gray.—
He built, him a log house where Wm-
Armor now lives, but afterwards moved
to Crawford county, where he prospered
in the world, and •oeuinulated n large
fortune His third son Rev. Alber'
Grav. a Methodist Minister, is well and
favorably known to the people of Greene
eountv, having had charge of the
Methodist churches on the Groene Cir
cuit, before and since the war. Mr
Archie Gray, was an honest and up
right man, a consistent member ol
the Presbyterian church and though
called to endure great physical suffer
ing bore his affliction with Christian
fortitude and died in the faith, leaving
behind him a bright teeord.
Andrew Armor, a brother of John
Armor, and grand-father of the Ar
mors now living in Greene county
came with his brother John from Ire
land and settled in North Carolina. He
bad no money to pay his way across the
••trackless deep” ami had to work a
V-ar to pay his passage money. After
living in North Carolina for a sh irt
time, lie. with his wile and one child
braved the dangers of the uninhabited
forests in • one horse wagon and moved
to Greene cou ity, Ga., where h settled
on the east bank of the Oconee river at
the place now owned by by Col. Jas. N
Armor. At that day the Oconee was the
limit of white occupancy, beyond the
river rne untutored savage roamed tn
undisturbed freedom. His principal
crops were corn and tobacco—king cot
ton not having assumed his autocratic
sway, lie was quite successful in hi
operations, and by frugality and in
du.-try soou owned a large portion ol
what is no - .v known as the 16J District,
G. A!., ol Greene county. As before
stated the principal crop was tobacco, of
course the facilities for getting crops
to market were ve v poor, and the
fanners resotted to rolling tobacco to
market. This consisted in arrang
ing fellows (as used in wagon wheels)
around the Hogshead in which the to
bacco was packed and attaching a shaft
to n pin at each end. To these sh ifts
the horse was hitched and as he pulled
the hogshead relied after. In this way
tobacco was taken from our county to
market at Savannah. In the year 1800
he concluded to speculate in tobacco,and
accordingly purchased a large quantity
of the weed which whs carried to Sa
vanuali and loaded on a stop, bound
•or the West Indie-. With thegl er
ing prize shining before his eyes he
embarked with the prospect of a most
successful venture, but the vessel was
lost ill a storm and lie with all on board
perished in tho briny deep. He Ift
one daughter and three sons, James,
Richard and William. The daughter
married and moved t the far Most—
James the eldest son married and local
ed in Monticelln (7a. The second son,
Richard, never married—preferring a
life of single blessedness, and died on
the old homes!ea 1. The youngest son
\V illiam was the father of four ehildr m
to wit: Reuben. William, James Nelson
and Mary Ann. William Armor, Sr.,
eventually came into possession of thi
landed property of which his father
died in possession and for some years
lived iu the hoase erected by hij fatti
er. Afterwards he moved farther fron
the river on account of sickness at the
old place. At this place he died at the
advanced age of 75 years. His chii
dren all are still living in the neighbor
hood when thev were raised.
