Socorro County Finances Improve Ahead of Obligations
Socorro County finances show a strong position with revenue adequate for current expenses and all debts as they fall due. Tax collections up to 1901 may yield about 25000 to the county treasurer split between the school and general funds. Abeyta bond negotiations could bring in funds, and prior two and a half years see only one quarter of expenses unpaid. A hopeful outlook for county leadership before term end. John F. Fullerton of Patterson and Mrs. Katherine May Sleight wed at the bride’s Park Street home. Rev. Chas. R. Taylor officiated. The couple planned a bridal supper and will reside at the Pullerton ranch.
