CAP. IV.

An ACT, to repeal an Act passed in the thirty-first year of His Majesty's Reign, intituled "An Act, for fixing permanently the boundary lines between the different Grants in this Province."

Passed the 21st of February, 1812.

Preamble.

 
WHEREAS the Provisions made by an Act passed in the thirty-first year of His Majesty's Reign, intituled "An Act, for fixing permanently the boundary lines between the different Grants in this Province," have been found ineffectual for the purposes intended, by reason of the increasing variations of the magnetic needle from the true meridian, which are different in different places, and in the same places at different times, to that the course or direction of any line now to be run by the needle would differ widely from what it would have been, had the same nominal course been so run, at or soon after the time of the passing of the said Act;

Act 31 G. 3, C. 8, repealed.

 
I.   Be it therefore enacted by the President, Council, and Assembly, That the said Act for fixing permanently the boundary lines between the different Grants in this Province, be, and the same is hereby repealed.

Proceedings under the repealed Act confirmed.

 
II.   Provided always, That nothing in this Act contained, shall extend, or be construed to extend to invalidate or any wise affect any proceedings already had in any part of this Province under and by virtue of the said herein before recited Act, but that such proceedings shall be and remain in the same force as if this present Act had not been passed.

The lines of certain Grants in the County of Charlotte, to be ascertained by reference to the true meridian.

 
III.   And whereas, in certain Grants of Land in the County of Charlotte, passed under the Seal of the Province of Nova Scotia, the course of the Boundary lines have by mistake been specified as lines to be run by the magnetic needle, Be it further enacted, that in the said Grants the courses of the boundary lines shall be ascertained by reference to the true meridian, as represented on the plans thereto annexed.
