tions as each may be entitled agreeably to the order of the

CHAPTER 206.
A supplement to the act entitled, an act to authorise the filling
up and extending of certain lots on the south side of the basin
in the city of Baltimore.
WHEREAS, doubts are entertained whether a recovery can
be had in the suits instituted under the act to which this is a
supplement, for the sums assessed by the jury impannelled in
pursuance thereof, and by them directed to be paid to the corpo-
ration of the city of Baltimore, and to John Mickle, because
the sheriff by whom they where summoned and sworn, omitted
to make a formal and sufficient return of their verdict to the
Register of said city.—Therefore,
Sec. 1. BE IT ENACTED by the General Assembly of
Maryland, That for the purpose of ascertaining and assessing
the damages which the corporation of the city of Baltimore, or
any person may have suffered, or shall suffer by reason of ex-
tending and wharfing out the lots permitted to be extended and
wharfed out by the act to which this is a supplement, and by
the act supplementary to that act, and also what sum of money
each individual benefited thereby shall contribute and pay to-
wards compensating the corporation of the city of Baltimore, or
any person or persons injured by the extending and wharfing
out the said lots, the Mayor of the city of Baltimore for the
time being, for and on behalf of the said corporation, and other
person or persons to be injured as aforesaid, shall name two
persons; Christopher Hughes of the city of Baltimore, or in
case of his death, his heirs or devisees entitled to the said lots
by descent or devise, name two persons, and the four persons
