served with notice to repair the road immediately In
front of his own property alone; but in proportion of the
whole. A ease had been settled recently, wherein it was
laid down that a person was liable when property was
improved in this way, for a prop 'Pion of the whole, as
liable for the north end as the south end.
Mr. ilowsau referred to the clause of the Act of Perlis.-
telloaas : —"The fruntagers are liable to pay
without regaad to the width of the street, and whether
their premises have setest: to it or not. And where the
whole of a road is to Is: reis.irg..l, the Surveyor is not
all wed to make separate ageism tionment, but one appor-
tionment for the whole." Mr. Howled wished it to he
clearly uniltrstood that any person who received notice
was not to do the work, or get it done himself ; but that
there must 'al union between the whole, or if the whole
did not do it together, any of them must stand aside and

Mr. WALKER said the reads actually belonged to the

from persons for placing stone on their roads.
Mr. CIIARLES did not think it mattered. If the Con-
servative Land Society paid the town so many thousand
pounds, they would charge the owners of property for it,
and get it front them.
