Inhabitants of Madison, petitioners for certiorari, versus County Commissioners.
    The R. S. c. 25, § 3, required the location, (by county commissioners,) of a public highway to be recorded at the next term of their Court. This is a petition for leave to issue a writ of certiorari for the purpose of quashing the proceedings in relation to a highway, for the alleged reason, that they had not been seasonably recorded. Pending the petition, the Legislature by an Act of 1852, c. 221, provided that “ no record of any highway should be quashed for the reason that the return of the county commissioners shall not have been recorded before the close of the proceedings.
   Shepley, C. J.

The petition can he no further prosecuted.

Leave to discontinue without cost.
