TO THE HONORABLE COMEMISSIONERS OF HARNETT COUNTY:
In re: House and lot owned by the minor children of J.W. McPherson, deceased,
listed in the name of J.W, MOPhe son estate:
We, the undersigned °appraisers of Lill ngton township, after reviewing
the house and lot above described, find that we made an error in assessing the
same for taxes.
We valued the property at the time of listing as if the same had been a
new and complete building. On reviewing the same we find that the houee is 23
years old, in a bad state. of rep ir, has no water- works, and is not worth more
than One Thousand (41,000.00) Dollars; and the lot on which the house is sitaated
is not worth Commissioners to reduce 4600.00.
e tax talueethereof from 3,000.00Co to F fteenaHundred
(41600.00) Dollars. This will make the property about equal to the other
property similarly located,
witness eur hands and scale, this the 31 day of March, 1928.
