People ex rel. Ryan v. Chicago & Alton Railroad

This is an appeal from a judgment of the county court of Logan county sustaining objections of the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company to the road and bridge tax of the township of East Lincoln, in said county. Other objections were made to judgment, but the only one raised and argued on the appeal is that the highway commissioners did not hold a meeting the first Tuesday in September to determine and certify the amount required for road and bridge purposes, as required by section 56 of the Road and Bridge law. It is conceded the meeting to determine the rate was held as required by section 50.
