ABATEMENTS.

The amount of abatements from all the above assessments to January 31, 1903, was for polls, $488; for real estate, $80,920.32; for personal estate, $50,055.81 — a total of $131,464.13. Of this sum $129,267 was abated before the reduced tax bills were paid, and with the money received for taxes is treated as a credit item to the Collector, who is charged with the total amount of the tax warrants of the year. The remainder of the abatements, amounting to $2,197.13, were made after payment by the persons assessed, and the several amounts were refunded by the Treasurer for moneys received from the Collector for the taxes of the current financial year.
