Description | According to publications dated on the 25th of Mâyîs, (1)325, number 67, which were presented by the Ministry of Interior, the intestines were taken from the butchers. Since the practice has been halted, they were brought in to be exempted from the intestine tax. Accordingly, they asked the council for one year exemption, and if they were required to pay the tax the council should pay back the value of the intestines which were taken by the municipality and the tax-farmer starting from Huzayrân, (1)325. The council approved the procedure. In order to issue it in this manner, a decision was issued on the 2nd of Huzayrân, (1)325 (15th of June 1909). [5 signatures] |
