Excerpt from County Administration: A Study Based Upon a Survey of County Government in the State of Delaware
County government in Delaware is of the same type as that prevailing in the southern and far western states. In other words, there is no local subdivision of the county which enjoys large powers. It is true, the hundred still remains as a reminiscence of a polit ical subdivision of the county that once had vitality, but to-day it serves no purpose except that of an election district and a convenient geographical unit. That hybrid form of the township and the county government which characterizes many of the northern and middle western states does not exist in Dela ware. Therefore it is relatively Simple to sketch an outline of county organization as it now stands in Delaware.
