Chap. 51.—An ACT to appropriate the sum of $4,100 to meet certain expenses
for the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind, Staunton.

Approved February 20, 1908.

Whereas, there has been a marked increase in attendance at the Vir-
ginia school for the deaf and blind at Staunton, Virginia, from various
parts of the Commonwealth; and, whereas, provisions and all the
necessaries of life have greatly increased in cost; and, whereas, it has
been necessary to enlarge the force of teachers in order to meet the needs
of said additional pupils, thus unavoidably creating an indebtedness of
four thousand one hundred dollars ($4,000) : therefore,

1. Be it, enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the sum
of four thousand one hundred dollars be, and the same is hereby, ap-
propriated out of money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated for
the purpose of discharging the indebtedness above mentioned.

2. That an immediate emergency exists for this act and it shall take
effect from its passage.
