Bennett v. Maxwell
82 Miss. 70

Caljtoon, J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

We notice but one objection to the claim of tax title) shown by this record, because that is decisive. It affirmatively appears here that the assessment roll was not filed on the first Monday of July, as it should have been, and that the extension of time to the first Monday in August, when it was filed, was granted by the auditor, who was without power to grant it. The board of supervisors only can extend the time.

Affirmed.
