times per ann~m since 1939,that the local newap~p~'contained notice of the sale of the property
each ~em~- year,a nominal sale,according to law, the owners did not pay,nothwithstanding that
the propoerty would be sold outright at the end of five years, by the City %ax Collector. ~:he club's
improvements being on the land company's property the clerk held the land company~mespomsibt~o for
the taxes. City at~6nna2 Coleberd's opinion was that a suit for tk~e taxes could last many years and
