CHAP. XXII.
An Act to enable the Levy Court of Washington County to alter and
change the direction of a Road therein mentioned.
Lib. TH. No.
1, fol. 216. |
Passed Dec. 31. |
WHEREAS it is represented to this general assembly,
by the petition
of sundry inhabitants of Washington county, that considerable
inconvenience results to a number of said inhabitants, from the
present direction of a road leading from Ashe's Ford, on Conococheague
creek, to the intersection of said road with the main road
leading from Hager's-town to Little Conococheague creek, both on
account of its circuity and the badness of the ground over which it
now passes, and that if said road were laid out, beginning with the
present one at Ashe's Ford, on Conococheague creek, and running
with the same to Lick Run, then departing from the present road in
a direction to intersect the William's Port road leading into the
Hager's-town, at or near the lands of the heirs of the late Baltzer
Moudy, that it would be shortening the present route forty perches,
and run over much better ground; and it appearing reasonable and
proper to this general assembly to remove those inconveniencies
which clash with the interest of individuals, when such removal will
not militate with public convenience, therefore, |
Preamble. |
2. BE IT ENACTED, by the General Assembly
of Maryland, That
the levy court of Washington county, if they, or a majority of
them, should think that a road laid out in the direction suggested
by the petitioners, in the preamble of this act, would be beneficial |
Levy court to appoint
commissioners
to lay out road
&c.—Damages. |
