September of each year the Clerk shall announce by adver-
tisement in some newspaper published in Hurlock, and if there
is no such paper printed in Hurlock, then and in that event
in some newspaper published in Dorchester County, that the
town tax collection books will be open, and that taxes will be
payable on September first, and that on accounts not paid
by September 30th interest will be charged from the first day
of June, immediately preceding.

24. On the first day of September following any levy all
unpaid taxes will be considered as due and in arrears, but
no interest shall be charged on any tax account if the same
be paid on or before September 30th next following any levy.
In the settlement of any tax account after that date, interest
at the rate of six per cent (6%) shall be charged from the pre-

amount of said interest shall be added to and made part of
said taxes. Between the 14th and 21st days of January next
following any levy, the Clerk shall prepare and have published

there is no such paper being printed in Hurlock, then and in
that event some newspaper published in Dorchester County,,

the amount of taxes due from each opposite the name of each
such delinquent. Such notice shall state that unless said
taxes and all expenses are paid on or before the first Tuesday
in April following, the said taxes will be collected by law. A
copy of this publication shall be posted in front of the City
Hall and five such notices as aforesaid shall be posted in five
conspicuous places in the town of Hurlock. This publication
in a newspaper and posted copies as aforesaid shall be con-

property continues charged on the assessment books to a
person after his or her death, the statement, account and
notice may be delivered to his or her executor or adminis-
trator, to his or her adult heirs at law, or to any one of them,
and in case their heirs are minors or non compos to the
guardian or committee of such minors or non compos. If the
property is charged to a non compos or lunatic, notice may be
delivered to his trustee or committee.
