Approved February 24, 1916.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That
the board of supervisors of Warren county shall have the power
to erect and maintain toll gates, and demand and collect tolls on
all or any of the macadamized roads in said county, and on all
or any of the bridges across the Shenandoah river or either
branch thereof, whether said bridge or bridges be located wholly
within said county, or not, the rates of tolls to be fixed by the
board of supervisors; provided, however, that said rates shall
not exceed those fixed by the general law for turnpike com-
panies. The board of supervisors shall be charged with the
duty of collecting and distributing all tolls, but all tolls shall be
expended exclusively for the maintenance, repair and upkeep
of the particular road from which they are collected; said board
of supervisors shall require and provide for separate accounts
with each of the said roads of all tolls collected thereon, and
shall require statements of all collections to be made at each
regular meeting of said board of all tolls collected, and likewise
for all amounts expended, said expenditures to be accompanied
with proper vouchers, which accounts when approved by the
board of supervisors shall be filed with the clerk of said board;
and provided, further, that the board of supervisors of Warren
county shall have the power, if in their discretion they deem it
wise and convenient, to give a rebate on tolls to those who have
made. or shall hereafter make private subscription to the build-
ing of permanent macadam roads in said county on any roads
where toll gates shall be established, said rebate to be in such
amounts as the said board of supervisors shall determine, but
in no cese to exceed the amount of said private subscription.

2. There being an emergency by reason of the immediate
need of properly repairing the roads in said county, this act shall
be in force from its passage. 7
