6. If the proprietor of the said land shall think himself aggrieved
by the quantity of land laid off, or by the manner of laying off the
same, or by the valuation thereof by the said jury, he may apply to
the said court at any time before the end of the next court to that at
which the proceedings aforesaid shall be returned, who may, in a sum-
mary way, examine the said proceedings, and ratify or correct the same
in any of the particulars above mentioned, and shall thereupon order
and adjudge that the said land shall thenceforward become the prop-
erty of the said county forever, upon the value thereof as aforesaid
being paid to the said owner; which judgment and proceeding shall be
recorded; and the clerk of the said court shall transmit a copy of such
order and judgment of the said court, and a certificate of the valuation
of the said land condemned, to the county commissioners of the same
county, who shall assess and levy the same in the same manner as other
county expenses, and shall order such sum, when levied, to be paid over
to the person or persons entitled to receive the same as being interested
in such condemned land; and it shall thereupon be lawful for the said
county commissioners to direct the necessary buildings to be erected
thereon at the expense of the county, and the same shall be annually
rented out by them for the use and benefit of the said county.

sections, at any time within three years after the removal of such
disability, to repay to the county commissioners or other collector, the
amount of the valuation of such condemned land, if the same shall
have been paid as above directed, and also the real value at the time of
such disability being removed of any buildings or other improvement?
that may have been erected thereon at the expense of the county, or
if the same be refused, to make a tender thereof; and such condemned
property, with the improvements thereon, shall revert to and become
again the property of such person, as fully as the same would have been
if such condemnation had never taken place.

case it shall be lawful for the said county commissioners to establish
and regulate a public ferry at every such place, and to license any
approved person to keep the same, and to ascertain the prices of
ferriage thereat, and the number of boats and hands to be employed,
and to require bond with sufficient securities in the same manner as
in cases of ferries heretofore established.
