W. & o. r. r. SuBson1pr1oN.-Abo
the year 1853, when the w. Il 0. r. R. was
known as the Alexandria, Loudoun g. Hamp-
shire road, the county of Clarke subscribed
500, 900 to its capital stock, upon condition
that Berryyille be made point on the line of
said road. w hile the work of construction was
in progress, the. railroads company, appeared
before the constituted" authorities of this
county and aske them to issue the amount
of the bonds the subscription provided for in
aid of said road. Tho county authorities
agreed to do so, upon condition that the rail-
road company executed a first lien upon its
road to indemnify the county against any loss
in the event of failure on the Fart of the
compeny to comply with the terms of the
subscription which was accordingly done and
the bonds issued. The road has never been
made Us far as the Clarke line, and much less
is the prospect of Berryvile becoming point
on it, owing to the insolvencyof the railroad
company.
The circuit court of Richmond has, upon
the petition of certain creditors of the rail-
road company, taken charge of its affairs and
in view of these circumstances the board of
supervisors of this county has filed, through
it's attorney, Mr.. Marshall Mccormick, a
bill in the said court asking that the county
of Clarke be relieved from the obligation in,
Cured upon the ground of failure of con-
sideration and the inability of the railroad
company, by reason of its bankrupt condi-
ton, to comply with the terms of the SUBJ
scription.- Charlie Courier.
