fiE BRUNSWICK TIMES-CALL. ■KI. NUMBER 27. ! fill I OWNS H. H. Harvey Gives Gp His Property to tie Court’s Appoiatee. f. BRISK) 18 TRUSTEE Former City Treasurer Avows His Innocence of Misusing Funds and Strips Him t . self of Assets. Xlio tending public is familiar with various details concerning the apparent shortage of Mr. H H. Harvey’s ac counts as city treisarer, as the Times' Call has from time to time published developments In the case. Another turn, was given to the matter yesterday by an order issued before Judge J. \V. Benue!, in chambers, by which Mr. Ed , my Brohston -vas made trustee for Mr. iJarreyN property. This order was *%*WSb ! u'a * result of pending litigation ?v irTth to which Mr. Rar- vey ;-a yoluotanly-lending every aid. In his papers submitted to the court Mr. P y, through bis attorney, Judge S. C. Atkinson, recites the fact that there exists in his accounts as city treaturer an apparent shortage of $21,659,37, This shortage, the petitioner avers, l was first discovered by City Clerk Jlo det, who, at the voluntary request of Mr. Harvey, checked up bis accounts as treasurer. The apparent shortage proved a great surprise to Mr. Harvey, as he states that at no time and in no manner whatsoever has he misused or misapplied any funds belonging to the city. WTiile stating in detail and in the most explicit terms bis absolute ignorant:; of how or in what manner the shortage occurred, and In like manner affirming his belief that the apparent shortage is not real, but due to some error in accounts or records, | Mr. Harvey ackowledges that in the Wface of the examination recently made of his records he is liable to such extent as the amount named above. As tho question has been raised as to whom the city of Brunswick must look to for a settlement of the amount, am] said question is in dispute, Mr. in the absence of definite information, asks the court to appoint a trustee to as sume control of hisa-sets until the questions at issue an be tied by law. As for Mr. po sition in the matter the s’afe that he stan .1 steely in i ! of desiring to make over to proper tie all his assets In order that such restitu tion as they may produce can be ; to his "redtt against the apparent short age in his accounts as treasurer. A schedule of Mr. Harvey's property follows, and it aggregates in value from $15,000 to $16,000. In the schedule ap- pears all Uis worldly possessions, except wearing apparel and household goods actually needed for use of his family. He gives up his piano, horse and buggy and ail else that Is liable for easy cssh selling, and thus strips himself and fam ily of all worldly possessions to restore money apparently lost through his hands, but which he avers never became lost by any knowledge or act of his own.
