ana no more. 1he question thc.. Is.
is such a charter totally invalid. or
is it valid for three years and no
more? Your committee is inclined
to believe that the former pfNposi-
ton is the correct one, and that the
charter is invalid, but they have not
the time to give this question the
consideration its Importance de-
mands. They therefore recommend
that the whole matter be referred H.
the District Attorney for his careful
examination. That if, after ex-
arnination he shall decide that
the present charter is null and void,
he shall so inform the clerk of this
Board, who shall notify Mr. Doty Of
the fact; and that a new charter
shall be granted to him for legal
period, for which he shall furnish 3
new and proper bond,
