Lands for Railway Purposes.

Chap. 40.—If a Railway Co. do not apply for a warrant for assessment of land damages within 1. mo. after being notified by the owner to do so he may take proceedings himself, to have the same effect as if such warrant issued on application of the Co. The J. P. issuing the warrant must forthwith notify both parties of the assessment when made; and the Co. must pay the award to the owner and costs and charges to the J.P..—they being taxable by a Judge of the Supreme Court. These latter provisions apply also to assessments already made but not notified or not paid.
