<p>Road law — Viewers—Report—Necessity for road — Proposition from private company to construct road.</p> <p>Where viewers in their report state that a proposed road is necessary for a public road and public use, it is not fatal to the report to conclude with the statement “that in consideration of the advantages which W (a lime company named), would derive from the laying out of said new road, and the vacation of the old road, said company has agreed and promised to build said new road and make it as good a road as the present old road now is, without any expense to the township.”</p> <p>The proposition was not an improper one to be made when the question of confirmation of the road came up for consideration in court, and it was certainly not a fatal error for the reviewers to put it in their report so that the court might consider it and take such action as it deemed necessary to compel the performance of the promise before finally confirming the report.</p>
