Morrison Waite,
San Mateo v. Southern Pacific Railroad Company…
“ The only condition attached to the payment made on the eleventh of this month is that, if when the account is finally settled between the county and Rhodes & Barstow upon the basis of the assessment roll, principal, interest, delinquency, and attorneys' fees, it shall appear that the payments, including that to Rhodes & Barstow, are more than the actual amount due, the excess shall be returned to the railroad company. ”
