Ex-Sheriff Short. . . Chairman of Vance County Board of Commissioners Makes
Public Report. . . Shortage Apparently Large. . . After Tending His Resignation
More Than a Week Ago the Official Has Not Since Been Seen
Henderson—An apparent net shortage of $45,757.83 in the
accounts of former Sheriff J.E.C. Bell was reported to Chairman George A. Rose
of the Vance County Board of Commissioners by the firm of Scott, Scharnley and
Company, certified public accountants, for several weeks.
The report was made public at a meeting of the board of
commissioners and created quite a sensation here. Sheriff Bell, soon after
tendering his resignation a week ago, left the city and has not been seen here
since.
