Cos- tello in the appeals of certain resi- dents lot the Village of Blyth against the asisessn ent of their property have been released. The decision is as follows: "IN THE MATTER of an Appeal by c•ertai'n person against the deci- sions of the Court of Revision of the Village eqt Blyth. June, 1940. JUDGMENT On the 'hearing of these several Ap- peals and, on the argument thereaf- ter the question was raised as to whether the Village of Blyth was' in reality legally assessed for the year 1940, these doubts arising from the evidence given by the present asses- sor, George Garnise. However, I de- duced, from his evidence that although originally his ideas of assessment of certain properties might, have -- been different froth the valuations placed on them by Mogg and Quinlan, he finally accepted their valuations, giv- ing as a reason that they were more highly paid assessors and therefore their opinions should prevail over his. Ganrisis subscribed to the oath after his work had been, done, adapting the Roll a 1 as his- own, ands cannot be heard to say now that he had any other ideas than those of Mogg and Quinlan. Fortunately for 'those concerned, the different parties interested ca4ne to the conolusion before any evidence wes given at this court that it would be in the interestts of all to adopt as assessment valuer for 1940 the re- commendations of the Court of Re- vision ,except on those properties specifically referred to me at this court and which will be referred to later inddvidu.ai•ly in this judgment.
