2200 ARTICLE 10.

months from the date of the service of the said notice, and should such
owner feel aggrieved at the cost of the said improvement or the said order
requiring the same to be made, such owner shall have the right to appeal
from the said assessment of the said lien, and the said orders, at any time
within the said four months, to the Circuit Court for Dorchester County,
the said appeal to be heard and determined by the said court as in the
same manner as civil appeals from justices of the peace, and the deter-
mination of the appeal by the court shall be final, and should there be
no appeal, or should there be an appeal and the same dismissed, or the
said assessment modified by the said court, then the said amount so as-
sessed, or remaining assessed, by order of the said court, shall be paid
to the Clerk to the Commissioners, by the said owner or owners, and if
the same be not paid either within the four months from the said order
of the Commissioners, or upon the judgment of the said court, in the event
of appeal, then the clerk shall praceed to sell the said property upon which
the said assessment has been made, as aforesaid, the sale to be in the
same manner as provided for the sale of property to compel the payment
of other city taxes, and should it be practicable to do so, the clerk may
soil part of the property upon which the assessment is made, provided
such part shall sell for enough to pay the same, but if not practicable to
sell the property in part, then sell the whole, and any surplus after the
payment of the said assessment and all costs and expenses that may be
allowed by the court upon the report of the sale, shall be paid to the
owner or owners of the property, or to whoever may be entitled to the
same, an audit of the case to be made by the auditor of the court as is
done in sales by trustees, in equity, under a decree.

All of the provisions hereof shall be applicable to the repair or repav-

but the condition of which shall have become, in the discretion of the
board such that it should be paved or repaved or repaired.

Should it be that the owner or owners of any such property live or
reside outside of Dorchester County, but in the State of Maryland, their
residence being known, then any notice herein required to be given may
be issued to the sheriff of the comity or the sheriff of Baltimore City, as
the case may be, to be served upon such owner or owners, the service to
be made and returned as is done in subpoenas or writs of summons issued
by the Circuit Courts of Maryland, the said return to have the same
force and effect as if served by any official of the City of Cambridge as
hereinbefore recited.

And should it be that the owner, or all of the owners, of any such prop-
erty or land, adjoining which and binding upon which, the said improve-
ments are to be made, reside without the State of Maryland, or should
the place of residence of such owner be unknown, in either event, then the
first notice herein required shall be effected and had by order of publi-

once in each of four successive weeks, giving notice to such non-resident
owner, or unknown owner, of the making1 of the said improvement, and
