warrant in this law for the election or appoint
ment of any such officer, or for the perfor-
nance of the duties imposed upon the asses
sor by any other person, it seems to me that il
must be concluded that the Legislature intended
that for this purpose, at least, such villages
were to continue to be part of the town OF
towns out Of which they were carved In other
Words that the town assessor is to make the as
sessment in the village. That the legislature
did not mean to make these villages separate
and distinct municipal bodies, for all purposes
is evident from section 80 of the act If de-
corporation as a village, there was no necessity
to provide that none Of the streets or highways
of the village should be in any town road dis
trict, or be under the control of town officers
nor that the town should not be liable for dam
ages occasioned by want of repair of such road.
This conclusion is strengthened by section 81,
which seems to assume the existence of a re-
lation between the town and the village other
than exists between separate municipalities.
