no thought. He said, however, that
the reward still stands and win be
given TO some one. Several applica-

from a police officer, which was filed
before the police investigation. Il is

she had a valid claim to the reward
inasmuch as Il was through her that
Virgins was located.

OF the hundred in which il is, OF If
IL be on the line between two iiun-
dreds at the equal charge OF both.
BY the same Section. as amended
by Section z. of Chapter 156, of the
Laws of Delaware above referred to,
Il is provided that all the charges Tor
roads and bridges in the several hun
dreds. except such as are chargeable
to the county, shall be raised by a
road tax in the various hundreds.
In an opinion TO the Levy Court
yesterday on the question Julian c.
Walker, the court attorney, said the
entire law with reference to roads
and bridges in New Castle county
comprises so many, separate acts or
the General Assembly of this State
and extends over such a long period
of frequent changes and amendments
thereto as to lead to considerable
confusion and. in the absence Of any
recent complication or systematic ana
convenient codihcation thereof IL Is
somewhat difficult to determine Just
what the law is in some Respects
without very great deal OF caretui
study and research.
However. from the time which MT.
Walker had already devoted TO lhe
subject, he is clearly of the opinion
that the law makes a clear distihc-
tion between such public roads and
bridges in the county as are desig-
mated as county roads and county
bridges. and such as are known as
ordinary hundred roads and bridges
and. while the county roads and
bridges arc maintained by a general
taxation of the county, the hundred
roads and bridges are built and main-
tanned by the road taxes levied and
collected from the respective nun
dreds.
II was Mr.. Walkers further opin-
ion that this general provision OF
the law could not be changed, except
by a special act Of the General AS
sembly, as has been done with re-
spect to certain bridges which have
been thereby declared to be county
bridges. and with respect to certain
roads In the county, especially by the
act generally known as the highway
! limproyement act, whereby certain
roads are declared to be county
roads.
He added that the Levy Court by
simple resolution cannot change this
general provision of the law with
reference to roads nd bridges, and
that the resolutions proposed and the
purpose sought to be attained are not
authorized by law.

State vs.. Coke, Harr. 495.
Per Curiam. II is very certain
that an officer cannot justify
breaking open an outer door to
execute any civil process, nor can
the landlord 90 destrain; but
where an actual levy or distress
has been peaceahly made, we hold
IL equally clear that an outer door
may be broken open in order to
get at the goods for the purpose
Of selling them. An entry to sell
resembles the case of breaking
open an outer door to retake one
who has escaped after arrest on
a capias ad respondendum. which
may unquestionably be done, even
on Sunday
