Supreme Court of Vermont January 15, 1874 (Town of St. Albans v. Failey)

The opinion of the court was delivered by

Redfield, J.

This action is upon the collector’s bond of defendant Eailey, and others as his sureties, and the alleged breach is the not collecting and paying over to the town treasurer the several sums specified in the rate-bills of the year 1868. Eailey was the collector of taxes, duly elected, for the years 1868,1869, and 1870.
