They report alleged shortages of about $22,000 in his accounts and will hire an expert accountant to investigate the borough books. The council aims to recover the amount from McDermott’s bondsmen and seeks to adjust bonds for the sewer and water bonds issued in 1897. The new collector Bloomfield Hulick was sworn in and resistance to a larger bond led to seeking a surety company.
