Approved February 2, 1892.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia,
That section five of an act entitled an act to work and
keep in order the public roads of the county of Pittsy]-
vania, approved the twenty-ninth of February, eighteen
hundred and eighty-eight, be amended and re-enacted so
as to read as follows:

_ § 5. After such surveyors shall have worked all their
hands on their road at least three days during the year,
and find their respective forces are insufficient to keep
their precinct of road in good order, it shall be the duty
of such surveyor or surveyors to notify any three free-
holders—any two of whom may act—to examine their
precinct of road, and ascertain what amount of money or
timber will be necessary to put said road in good order,
and, upon their report in writing to any such surveyor, he
shall at once proceed to carry out the decision of the
above-named freeholders: provided, that such freeholders
shall not cause to be expended a greater amount than
fifty dollars upon any one precinct of road in any one
year without first obtaining from the board of supervisors
of said county authority to do so. All such surveyors of
roads as may have to call in the services of such free-
holders as provided in the preceding section shall make a
report to the board of supervisors at its July meeting of
each year, accompanying his report with the report of such
freeholders, setting forth the amount authorized to be
spent on such road, and any other matter pertinent there-
to, together with vouchers for such expenditures.

2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
