said School District No. 4; and the
persons who were chiefly interested in
having such segregation made having
filed with the County Superintendent

the effect that after having
made further examination into the
facts upon which they relied for the
segregation of such territory they felt
it was not for the best interests of
the people concerned that such segre-
cation be made; and the County Sup
~erintendent of Schools having advised
this Board that the figures which
were presented to her at the hearing
of such petition for such segregation
of territory were incorrect, and that
after having made independent inves-
tigation as to the facts in connection
herewith, she is of the opinion that
it would be to the best interests of the
people residing in said school Dis
trict that such segregation be not
made;
And it appearing that due notice of
the time and place of hearing of the
said appeals has been duly given as
required by law; and this date being
the time for the hearing Of such ap-
peals has been duly given as required
by law; and this date being the time
for the hearing of such appeals; the
matter of the appeals came on for
hearing, no one appearing in behalf
of such petitioners for such segrega-
ton; and the appellants having pro-
duced witness and introduced testi-
mony against the segregation of such
territory, and the Board of County
Commissioners of said County, being
duly advised in the premises, now
finds and determines that it is not
for the best interests of said school
district No. 4 and the Schools therein
that such segregation be made;
Now, on Motion of Commissioner

order of the County Superintendent
of Schools of said County is hereby in
all things vacated and annulled, and
