Genung, being under his ab- solute control, and being payable to ]rim alone, the amount unpaid upon the sarne was, prima facia, liable to taxaiiou as property of said Genung. That if said Genung owed certain sums to other parties that, by consent, had been included in said mortgage, his remedy was to appear before the assessors upon t grievance day" and prove the facts of such indebtedness'; and he having so appeared, and the assessors having judicially passed upon that question, his remedy, if any, was in certiorari to the courts, and this hoard has no power to grant any relief.

We also suggest that the jury rooms and reception room for witnesses be newly floored and the walls thereof kalsomined and otherwise put in a clean t and proper condition.
