And whereas the said Commissioners referred the same to Samuel U. Roberts, Esq., Civil Engineer, an inspector duly appointed under the said Act.

And whereas all notices and inquiries required by the said Act have been duly given and made, and the said inspector has duly reported to us the said Commissioners in writing the result of his inquiries; and we the said Commissioners have duly considered the same, and no objections to the report of the said inspector has been made to us.
