Chap. 526.—An ACT to authorize the county court of Warwick county to correct
an alleged erroneous assessment of lands of Washington McLean’s estate in
said county, and the taxes assessed thereon.

Approved April 2, 1902.

Whereas, it is claimed by the personal representative of Washington
McLean, deceased, that the assessors of lands for the county of Warwick,
Virginia, acting under the provisions of chapter twenty-three of the
Code of Virginia, eighteen hundred and eighty-seven, and acts amenda-
tory thereof, in making the assessment of land in said county in the year
nineteen hundred, made an error in the assessment of the lands of the
said Washington McLean’s estate, in said county; and,

Whereas, the personal representative of Washington McLean, and the
heirs at law of the said Washington McLean, are all non-residents of the
State of Virginia; and,

Whereas, he was not apprised of the said assessment until he offered to
pay his taxes under said assessment; and,

Whereas, the time for making application for the correction of erro-
neous assessments had expired: now, therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That from the
passage of this act until the first day of December, nineteen hundred and
two, be allowed to the said personal representative of Washington Mc-
Lean, deceased, for the purpose of making application to the county court
of the county of Warwick for the correction of any erroneous assessment
of the lands of Washington McLean, deceased, in said county, made in
the year nineteen hundred, after first giving such notice as required by
section four hundred and forty-four of the Code of eighteen hundred and
eighty-nine, and acts amendatory thereof. And the said court is hereby
authorized and empowered and directed, upon such application being
made, within the time stated, to correct any erroneous assessment of said
lands as said court, in its discretion, may deem proper.

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