State Auditor Brown Refuses to Surrender Office and Papers
A long running dispute between Gov. Sherman and State Auditor J. L. Brown climaxed with a March 8 suspension. Deputy Colmp ton and Jonathan W. Cattell delivered a notice declaring Brown’s bond unapproved and ordering Brown to surrender all money, books, and property to Cattell. An Ankeny Parish Parish commission was appointed to inspect the office, reporting severe findings including alleged improper fees, missing vouchers, and funds diverted. Brown contends differences with the council and asserts the investigation focused on procedure rather than bank or fee issues, and he challenges the governor’s actions as improper and premature.
