JUDGE HOPKINS SAYS
IT1ISNT CORRECT
In an open letter to one of the
local papers, Judge Hopkins of
Thomasville repudiates the state
ment' based upon the report of
the Southern Service Corporaton
of Waycross that there are 68,252
acres of land in Thomas county
unreturned for taxes. This re
port, if true, would make old
Thomas the “b( ss tax dodger”
of the state. .
Judge Hopkins points out that
much of this land reported to the
County Commissioners as being
in arears for taxes has never
been in arears at all, but-the tak
es have been regularly paid eve
ry,year. As an'instance'.he gives
the2,500 acres, belonging to A. H
Hough of Philadelphia, upon
which the taxes have never fail
ed to be paid. He says further
that the lots upon which the
towns of Boston, Metcalfe, Meigs,
Ochlocknee and Coolidge are lo
cated, are in whole or in part re^
ported as ‘"dodgers” and in de
fense of his county he wants the
matter looked into.
