extension shall be completed in twelve years from the date hereof. |

said companies
in the said original act mentioned shall not proceed to commence
and carry on the work on said roads respectively within the time
limited by said act, or shall not, within the time therein also limited
to complete said roads respectively, according to the true intent
and meaning of the said original act, and this supplement
thereto, then and in either of those cases all and singular the
rights, liberties, privileges and franchises, by the said original act,
