400 ARTICLE 2.

ary limits of said town, as fixed by Section 121 of this Article, to which
this Act is an amendment, shall constitute an assessment district for the
purpose of keeping the necessary records of assessment and collection of
all taxes, as a sub-district of Election Precinct No. 2 of said county.
All taxes shall be assessed, extended and collected as to person and prop-
erty in accordance with existing law; but the record of assessment and
taxes to be collected and the alphabetical list of persons required by law
to be kept shall, as to person and property in said town, be entered on the
proper books of the county compactly together, precisely as though said
town constituted an assessment district for all purposes under existing
law. Upon this record, so kept in form, shall be collected all taxes in
said town, so that easy ascertainment may always be made by the County
Treasurer of taxes collected and in his hands, to which the said town shall
be entitled. As soon as practicable, after the taking effect of this Act,
the Commissioners of Arundel-on-the-Bay shall furnish the County Com-
missioners of said county an alphabetical list of all persons in said town
or owning property therein, against whom taxes of any kind may be
assessed; and of all property owned or held by each, and the assessment
of the same as it shall then stand, which list shall be the basis of the record
provided hereby, but which may be revised, added to or corrected, by
said County Commissioners exactly as under existing law.
