    "head_matter": "The People of the State of Illinois for use of Jacob Glos, Appellant, v. Peter B. Olsen, County Clerk et al., Appellees.\nGen. No. 19,370.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. S. C. Stotjgh, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1913.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed April 21, 1914.\nRehearing denied May 5, 1914.\nStatement of the Case.\nAction by the People of the State of Illinois for the use of Jacob Grlos against Peter B. Olsen, county clerk of Cook county, and others to recover for an alleged breach of the official bond given by Olsen as county clerk. The declaration alleged sixty-nine breaches in as many counts. Judgment was entered in favor of defendant upon a general demurrer being sustained to plaintiff\u2019s declaration. From the judgment, plaintiff appeals.\nJohn R. O\u2019Connor, for appellant Jacob Glos.\nCarl R. Chindblom, William F. Struckmann & Frank L. Shepard for appellees Olsen, Chytraus and Severson.\nAbstract of the Decision.\nOfficial bonds, \u00a7 32 \u2014when declaration in suit on bond of county cleric demurrable. In an action on a county clerk\u2019s official bond, certain counts in the declaration alleged that the county clerk charged and collected excessive fees for the issuance of tax deeds and for recording the evidence upon which they were based, and the remaining counts were based on a claim that in each deed issued on the affidavit required as a foundation therefor the county clerk included but a single parcel of land instead of several, thus causing an increased cost to the relator for record of the tax deeds. Held that assuming the action would lie on the bond for\" such breaches, a general demurrer to the declaration was properly sustained for the reason that no one of the former counts alleged what amount or fee could legally have been required for recording such evidence, and for the reason that the allegations of the latter counts were hut mere conclusions, there being no allegations of fact from which the court could infer whether more than one lot should have been included in a tax deed or not.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Veis. XI to XV and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
