MINUTES OF ,q SPECIAL I\ffiETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL, HEW APRIL 18th, 29'0
Called to order by J. .T. Robertson, with all members present. Mayor
and Clerk present.
Meeting called for transaction of general business, in view of the
failure to hold last regular meeting account lack of quorum.
Messrs. Dood, Carter and Hickman were present from Orlando National
Detective Agency in regard to matter of recent fires in Ocoee. They
,advised that Richardson & Marsh Corp. were willing to pay in cash
$50., but that Chase & Co. refused to join in the plan. Ocoee had
given their' check for $50. previously. These gentlemen came back to
present a new plan--that is, so far as payments are concerned, namely:
~~200. to start work on the case, and if a conviction is secured, then
an additional ~~200. must be paid in, making a total of $400. for con-
viction. If no conviction--$200. Mayor and Mr. Fain were appbinted
a committee to interview Chase & Co, locally, and report what interest
they seem to have in the matter, and if they, will come in equally
with Ocoee and Richardson & Marsh Corp. then we will proceed. Other-
wise we will drop the question, and our ch'.ck will be returned to us. .
