BOONSBOROUGH.

1865, c. 97 recites that the burgess and commissioners of Boonsborough, in Washing-
ton county, have, by inadvertence, neglected to take the oath of allegiance, and to
subscribe their names thereto, as required to be done by article first, section seven
of the constitution of 1864, thereby rendering their acts illegal and of no effect;
therefore, it enacts that the acts of said burgess and commissioners are made legal
and binding, as if said oath of allegiance had been taken and been subscribed to
by the said burgess and commissioners, according to the requirements of said
constitution, so soon as they shall have taken and subscribed to said oath of
allegiance before a justice of the peace, or some other person legally qualified to
administer the same: and said act further enacts:

1805, c 67 Elections, how to be held.

death, resignation, or any other cause; provided, the term for which officers so elected to fill vacancies shall expire on the day after the one fixed for hold- ing of annual elections by the by-laws of said cor- poration; and, provided also, where the burgess and commissioners, or the person authorized by them to give notice of said election, neglect or refuse to give said notice, it shall be held to be a legal -notice for such elections, if given by a justice of the peace residing in said corporation. In force from March 10, 1865.
