Chap. 94.—An ACT to validate the acts of certain commissioners in chancery in
the Commonwealth.

Approved March 16, 1903.

Whereas, by act of the general assembly of Virginia, in effect
February seventeenth, nineteen hundred, section thirty-three hundred and
nineteen of the Code of Virginia was so amended as to increase the num-
ber of commissioners in chancery for the courts of certain cities and
counties in the Commonwealth, and additional commissioners were duly
appointed by virtue of such act; and,

Whereas, by act approved February fifteenth, nineteen hundred and
one, an amendment was made to said act, which, from its title, purported
to amend said section in so far as it affected the county of Rappahannock,
but in fact did omit other counties and cities provided for in the act first
aforesaid; and,

Whereas, many of the additional commissioners appointed by virtue of
the first aforesaid act have continued to discharge the duties of the office
of such commissioners, and have done various acts in discharge of such
duties; therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That all acts and
transactions done by any “of the commissioners in chancery, who were
properly qualified as such commissioners, on the fourteenth day of Febru-
ary, nineteen hundred and one, in the city of Manchester, and the counties
of Alleghany, Buckingham, Frederick, Southampton, Russell, and Shen-
andoah, be,*and the same are hereby, declared to be valid.
