ation. On motion by C. L. Tuff, :,inkel seconding, the council
aporoved the bonds as satisfactory

court archives for council action at a later meeting.

that the State Bank of Mound be designated as such depository under

received the second of Trustee'Ferrall and the council's unanimous
approval.

~ecause of the shift in the oft'ice of Vlllage Treasurer and
certain banking compulsions in the handling of orders on the
village treasury as checks, circumstances suggested that the
Village Recorder confer with 'village Depository officials
as to the form village treasury orders should take, hereafter,
so that they eenkliegally be handled as cheeks Becaus~ of the
official associations, heretofore, between the village and the
bank, this reeuirement of the treasurer's signature was not of
necessity enforced.
Following the reading of a reply by ~fike Holm, -'ec'y of State
for Minnesota, to a letter' written by the Village Recorder with
reference to a replacement of the village charter doct~ments that
had been destroyed in the Great Northern Depot fire of 1912,
'±'rustle Winkel moved that the Recorder be authorized to proceed
in such replacement and that he draw a warrant in the amount of
~12.50 to cover the cost. This motion was seconded by Trustee
FerralI, the council concurring.
