    County of Schuyler v. Charles H. Wells.
    
      Municipal Corporations—County Clerk Hire—Recovery of from County.
    
    This court declines to interfere with the judgment for the plaintiff, in an action brought to recover from a county an amount expended by him in clerk hire while acting as county clerk.
    [Opinion filed May 24, 1890.]
    Appeal from the Circuit Court of Schuyler County; the Hon. J. C. Bagby, Judge, presiding.
    Messrs. Prentiss & Bailey and D. H. Glass, for appellant.
    Messrs.- W. L. Vandbventer and S. B. Montgomery, for appellee.
   Pleasants, P. J.

Appellee was clerk of the Circuit Court for Schuyler County, and presented the claim in this case, amounting to $654.45, being for money paid by him as such clerk for necessary clerk hire. The county board rejected it and he appealed to the Circuit Court.

The only notable difference between this case and that of the County of Schuyler v. Bogue, heard at this term, is that appellee here did report and pay over the whole amount of fees collected and the expenditure for clerk hire, and is now seeking repayment of the amount of this expenditure. By that difference it is stronger than the case of Bogue.

The Circuit Court gave him judgment for his claim and it is affirmed.

Judgment affirmed.
