Approved March 15, 1910.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That section
seven of an act entitled an act for working and keeping in order the
public roads of Mecklenburg county, and to provide for the levy of taxes
for that purpose, be amended and re-enacted so as to read as follows:

§?%. The county board of. supervisors, at their regular annual meet-
ing, or such adjourned meeting before the annual levy closes, as they
may deem practicable, shall examine all statements of the district boards
laid before them, and shall have power to correct any errors that may be
found therein. They shall levy a tax annually upon all property in the
county, including the property in all the incorporated towns in said
county, not to exceed twenty-five cents on the one hundred dollars’
worth of property, for working and keeping in order the roads of said
county. Said funds shall be apportioned to the several road districts in
proportion as the amount paid by each district for county road pur-
poses bears to the whole amount raised in the county for said purposes.

2. All acts and parts of acts in conflict with this act are hereby
repealed.

3. An emergency existing, by reason of the fact that the annual
levy must be made not later than April, this act shall be in force from
its passage.
