NO AUTHORITY OVER DAMS.
II. G. Knowles Presents His
Opinion to the Levy Court,

According to an opinion given to the
Levy Court yesterday by Attorney IL. ~
Knowles that body has no authority over
mill dam roads and bridges. Mr.
Knowles opinion was as follows:
'The law of 1885, volume II, chapter
$50 makes all mill dam roads, used as
Il public highway in connection with
any public road, public roads and to
be kept up and maintained in like man
iier as other public roads of the county,
which manner is by the road commits
sioners of the respective hundreds. The
care and maintenance of such public
roads is not duty imposed upon the
Levy Court, but, upon the road COM
misSioners of the hundred where the
mill dam road is situated. The law re-
ferred to compels the owner or tenant of
the mill dam property to keep the dam
N proper condition and repair, and the
TOAD commissioners are required to keep
only the surface of the road in repair as
Il highway, the same aS any ordinary
public road. and to provide, care for and
maintain the planking and planking
ioists required by reason of bridge or
race on or through such mill dam. There
Levy Court to incur any expense what
ever in connection with mill dam roads.
1.-The said law makes it obligatory upon
The owner or tenant of any mill-dam
property to keep such dam in repair
and furnish safe and com
modious roadway, at least twelve feet
wide y and keep any bridge in
repair, except only as to the upper plank.
'ng and upper ioists thereof. 1t further
provides that if any owner or tenant
shall neglect to keep the mill-dam road
| n proper repair and condltion as afore
| said he shall be deemed guilty of n mis-
| lemeanor and shall pay fine
If twenty dollars In the event thai
he owner or tenant of the mill-dam re
| uses or fails to obey the law, then ii
| hall be the duty of the overseer' il
aharge of the roads in that particular
vicinity 'to repair such bridges or roa,
and he shall recover from tn,
owner or tenant tof the mill-dam prop
,rty) double the costs of such repairs
"The road commissioners have a lega
way and the power Of enforcing mill
dam owners or tenants to comply witt
the law, and such power is plainly set
forth in the law referred to.
"As above stated the matter of tht
| care and maintenance of mill-dam road,
is one over which the Levy Court ha'
10 jurisdiction. and therefore no right ol
power, by authority or sanction of law. Z
incur any expenses to be paid out of thu
general funds of the county"
On motion of Mr. Willitts. the opinion
was made a matter OF record.
Last Tuesday Mr.. Megginson was an
thorized to have repairs made to thu
Batten mill-dam. Mr.. Willtts called at
tention to the action of the court in tn,
natter and thought it contrary to TIL
ttorney's opinion. II was decided t,
have Mr. Knowles confer with the roat
commissioners concerning the dam.
Mr.. Knowles later reported to th
ourt that case had been brought i,
Chancery against the Levy Court. an,
presumably the act of 1885 was passe,
o define the power of the court and roa'
commissioners with reference to publ
"onds and mill-dam roads.
