A Supplement to the Act, entitled, An act for the erection of a new Market-House
in Hagers Town, Washington County.
1. Be it enacted, by the General Assembly of Maryland, That the
commissioners appointed under the act of assembly, passed at
December session eighteen hundred and eighteen, chapter twenty-
eight, to which this is a supplement, be and they are hereby re-
quired and directed, to select and purchase, on or before the first
day of May eighteen hundred and twenty-two, a lot or lots of
ground in Hagers-town, which shall be by them considered eligible
and convenient for a market house, for such price and upon such
conditions as they may approve of.
2. And be it enacted, That in case any of the commissioners
named in the act to which this is a supplement, shall refuse to act,
die, resign, or remove out of the county, or be incapable to act,
the levy court of said county .shall fill up such vacancy.
3. And be it enacted, That the moderator and commissioners of
Hagers-town, shall within three years from the first day of May
next, cause to be erected, on the ground selected by the commis-
sioners aforesaid, a market house, upon such plan and of such di-
mensions as may be determined on by them the said moderator and
commissioners, who are required to cause to be pulled down the
old court-house, within the time allowed for the erection of a new
market-house, so that the space occupied by the old court-house
may be made a public street, as contemplated by the tenth section
of the act of assembly passed at December session eighteen hun-
dred and fifteen, chapter one hundred and seven.
4. And be it enacted, That in case of failure on the part of the
moderator and commissioners aforesaid, to pull down the old court-
house within the time limited in the second section of this act, the
same shall revert to the county, and the commissioners of the now
court-house shall, within three months after the first of May eigh-
teen hundred and twenty-three, pull down the old court-house, or
sell the same at public sale to the highest bidder, under the express
condition that it shall be pulled down immediately after such sale,
and the proceeds of the same, when so sold, shall be applied to dis-
charge any debt contracted for building the new court-house.
5. And be it enacted, That the moderator and commissioners of
Hagers-town, be and they are hereby authorised, to levy on the
taxable property of Hagers-town, and its additions, such sum or
sums of money as will, with the proceeds of the old court-house,
be sufficient to pay for purchasing a site, and erecting the market-
house aforesaid, and shall collect the same in two equal moieties in
the year eighteen hundred and twenty-two and twenty-three.
