The main buisiness was the controversy that has arisen between the board and the state highway over the retention of Mr. Silas Fletcher as the manager of the roads that are being constructed in the county. The board put down an order dismissing him, and Mr Wilson has threatened to withdraw unless he is retained, but the board has declined emphatically to accede to his position. The matter is still in controversy between them, and it is feared that it will have a deleterious effect on the road construction of the county.
