or repair any bridge or bridges between the said ad-
joining counties, filed before a contract under this act
for building or repairing has been made, that such deter-
mination of the said county commissioners is inexpe-
dient, and desire an appeal from such determination,
the said county commissioners shall grant such
appeal, and cease all further proceedings until
the appeal is decided by the circuit court of the
county; and shall immediately cause to be filed
with the clerk of the circuit court, all records, acts,
papers and proceedings, or copies thereof, which may
by the appellant be required, with full opportunity
for him or his counsel to examine the books and pa-
pers of the said commissioners relative to the matter,
and thereupon the circuit court of the county, where
the appeal is taken, shall proceed to try and determine
the matter according to the justice and rights of the mat-
ter, with or without the aid of a jury, as the parties may
agree, or the court may order, and in all cases where
the appeal is not sustained, the appellant shall pay the
costs, and in all other cases the court shall direct
the costs to be paid, in such manner, and by such
party, as it may deem equitable and just; and the
commissioners of the county shall be the appellee in
such appeal, and levy as part of county charges, and
pay whatever costs and charges are so ordered to be
paid by them, and all incidental expenses not herein
provided for.
