4874 ARTICLE 22.

lars, to be collected as other fines are collected, and in default of the pay-
ment of said fine imposed by said Justice, the said Justice shall have the
power to commit the person on whom said fine is imposed to the Washing-
ton County jail for a period not exceeding one day for each one dollar of
fine so imposed. Provided, that in all cases where a fine is imposed under
this Section, the party on whom the said fine is imposed, if he feels ag-
grieved thereby, may within three days, appeal to the Circuit Court for
Washington County, from the action of the said Justice; and pending the
hearing of said appeal, shall give surety for his appearance in the Circuit
Court for Washington County, in a sum to be fixed by the said Justice,
which sum shall not be in excess to* twice the amount of said fine imposed;
and the person on whom said fine is imposed under this Section, shall at
his option, instead of furnishing surety for his appearance, have the right,
pending his appeal, to deposit with the Justice a sum in cash double the
amount of the fine imposed, as collateral security, for his appearance in
the Circuit Court for Washington County on said appeal. Provided, no
appeal shall be allowed under this Section after payment of the fine, but
deposit of cash as such collateral security in double the amount of the fine,
shall not be construed to be a payment of said fine.

1924, oh. 36, sec. 272S.

576. The Mayor and Council of Hagerstown, immediately after the
qualification of said Justice, shall furnish him with a copy of the charter
and ordinances of Hagerstown, and shall supply him with copies of all
new ordinances of said Hagerstown within one day after the adoption
thereof, and shall notify him of the repeal of any ordinance within one
day thereafter; and the said Mayor and Council of Hagerstown shall sup-
ply said Justice with all dockets for Corporation cases and with all neces-
sary stationery and office equipment used by him in the business of the
said town. The said Justice shall record in the corporation docket his
proceedings in all such cases, setting forth the fine or imprisonment im-
posed and the amount of costs, and he shall submit said docket to the in-
spection of any person who may request to see the same. It shall be the1
duty of the said Justice to make out a summarized statement of all corpo-
ration cases tried before him, with the fines and costs therein collected,
which statement shall be sworn to and submitted monthly to the Mayor
and Council. Upon the request of the Mayor and Council, the said Jus-
tice shall produce his docket and may be placed under oath and interro-
gated as to the entires+ therein. The said Justice shall pay over to the Tax
Collector of Hagerstown quarterly all fines collected by him which may
belong to said town. The Mayor and Council of Hagerstown are hereby
authorized to make all levies and appropriations necessary to provide for-
the payment of the salaries, fees, expenses and costs made by this Act pay-
able by the said the Mayor and Council of Hagerstown.
