property should not be assessed, according to said notice.

Section 330F. That after the sittings for the correction of
tax accounts and the making of the appropriations and levy
for the ensuing fiscal year, the person to whom property is
assessed at the time of the making of the levy shall be held
responsible for the whole tax charged to him, provided he
has property of sufficient amount to cover said tax. After
the levy has been made, the taxes must be adjusted between
buyer and seller of any property for that tax year, and any
part or class of property held by the seller shall be held as
responsible for the whole tax bill charged to him, and the
Clerk shall have to locate and hold the original property so
named in the tax record as liable and responsible for the taxes,
only in such cases as to where the property remaining in the
name of the person to whom it was assessed and charged at
the time of the making of the levy is not of sufficient amount
to cover the tax bill. Then, in that event, the Clerk shall pro-

changed at said sittings without the concurrence of two or

of review) the sum of three dollars per day for each day
that he is present from 9 A. M. to 12 M. and from 1 P. M.
to 5 P. M. In case of any general assessment of the property
