written or printed notice on the door of the courthouse and at five con-
spicuous places throughout the district, such publication to be made for at
least two weeks before the final hearing. During this time a copy of the
report shall be on file in the office of the Clerk of the County Commissioners,
and shall be open to the inspection of any landowner or other person inter-
ested within the district.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 93. 1912, sec. 81J. 1912, ch. 656, sec. 10.

94. It shall be the duty of the clerk of the Board of County Commis-
sioners to summon or cause to be summoned all defendant landowners, who
have not signed the petition, when they are known to him or to the viewers,
and if it shall appear to the clerk by affidavit or otherwise that the owner
or owners of the whole or any share of any tract or tracts of land whose
names are unknown and cannot after due diligence be ascertained by the
petitioners, the clerk shall give notice in the nature of a summons to be
given to all such persons by publication of the petition or of the substance
thereof, and describing generally the tract or tracts of land as to which the
owner or owners are unknown, with the order of the commissioners thereon,
in some newspaper published in the county wherein the land is located.
Such notice shall name the day upon which the Board of County Com-
missioners will hold their final hearing before declaring the drainage dis-
trict established. This notice shall be printed for four consecutive weeks
prior to the date of the hearing.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 94. 1912, sec. 81K. 1912, ch. 656, sec. 11.

95. At the date set for hearing any landowner may appear in person
or by counsel and file his objection in writing to the report of the viewers;
and it shall be the duty of the board to carefully review the report of the
viewers and the objections filed thereto, and make such changes as are
necessary to render substantial and equal justice to all the landowners in the
district. If, in the opinion of the board, the cost of construction, together
with the amount of damages assessed, is not greater than the benefits that
will accrue to the land affected, the board shall confirm the report of the
viewers, and declare the drainage district as established. If, however, the
board finds that the cost of construction, together with the damages assessed,
is greater than the resulting benefit that will accrue to the lands affected, the
board shall dismiss the proceedings at the cost of the petitioners, and the
sureties upon the bond so filed by them shall be liable for such costs.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 95. 1912, sec. 81L. 1912, ch. 656, sec. 12.

96. The clerk of the Board of County Commissioners shall provide a
suitable book, to be known as the "Drainage Record," in which he shall
transcribe every petition, motion, order, report, judgment or findings of the
board in every drainage transaction that may come before it in such manner
as to make a complete and continuous record of the case. Copies of all the
maps and profiles are to be furnished by the engineer and marked by the
clerk "Official Copies," which shall be kept on file by him in his office, and
open to inspection.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 96. 1912, sec. 81M. 1912, ch. 656, sec. 13.

97. After the said drainage district shall have been declared established,
and the survey and plan therefor approved, the Board of County Com-
