Moale, 21 Md. 135, on this point).

it shall be the duty of the said commissioner to make out, under his
hand and the seal of his office, and transmit to the court of appeals, a

1900, ch 494.

84. Any person a party to the proceedings feeling himself aggrieved
by any decision or order of the county commissioners, or any taxpayer
not a party to the proceedings, may appeal to the circuit court for the
county at any time within sixty days after the time of the making of
such decision or order, and upon such appeal being taken in writing, the
clerk of the county commissioners shall immediately transmit a copy
of the proceedings to said circuit court; and if upon an appeal taken
by a taxpayer not a party to the proceedings the appeal is not sustained,
the appealing taxpayer shall pay the costs of such appeal unless the
court shall otherwise direct, and all appeals from decisions of the county
commissioners shall be docketed against the party or petitioner in whose
favor the decision below was made.

There is no appeal from the action of the circuit court to the court of
appeals, provided the circuit court had jurisdiction. Cumberland, etc., Co.
v. Martin, 100 Md. 166; Gadd v. Melvin, 82 Md. 646; Smith v. Goldsborough,
80 Md. 62; Greenland v. Harford County, 68 Md. 62.

There can be no appeal under this section from an order of the county
commissioners removing a road supervisor; his remedy is by mandamus.
History of this section. Miles v. Stevenson, 80 Md. 366. And see Hooper
v. Craeger, 84 Md. 250.

This section does not defeat the right of a party to compel county com-
missioners, by mandamus, to levy a tax imposed by law for his benefit.
Worcester County v. School Commrs., 113 Md. 313.

Cited but not construed in Smith v. Goldsborough. 80 Md. 62.
