1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That
section fourteen hundred and eighty-four of the Code of Vir-
ginia as heretofore amended, be amended and re-enacted so as
to read as follows:

Section 1484. It shall be the duty of the county treasurer
to furnish for the use of the county school board at its annual
meeting in July, a report for the school year closing next pre-
ceding said meeting, showing in detail all transactions pertain-
ing to the receipt and disbursement of school funds for said
school year, together with his books, vouchers, or other official
papers, which contain accounts or evidences of receipts or dis-
bursements; and likewise it shall be the duty of the clerks of
the district boards to lay before the county school board at the
annual meeting, their official record and account books, con-
tracts, deeds and all other official books and papers pertaining
to the school business of the year just closed. Upon examina-
tion of these records, accounts, or papers, should there appear
to have been any delinquency or irregularity in the acts of the
treasurer or clerk of the county or district boards, or of any dis-
trict board, or any member thereof, it shall be the duty of the
county school board to cause a minute of the facts to be made
in its records, and to take such other action as the case may re-
quire. It shall also be the duty of the county school board to
cause all warrants which have been presented and paid by the
county treasurer at this settlement to be cancelled by some effi-
cient cancelling device, after which the said warrants shall be
delivered to the division superintendent, who shall keep the same
on file at least twelve months before destroying them.
