Excerpt from The Law of Townships: And the Rights and Duties of Township Officers in Pennsylvania

This book attempts, for the first time, possibly, to collate the law with respect to townships in Pennsylvania. It treats of the classification of townships by the Acts of April 28th, 1899, and of May l1th, 1901, and of the legislation pertaining to each class, of supervisors, their duties with respect to roads and bridges, and their contractual power, of the formation and division of townships, school districts and election districts, of the liabilty of townships upon contracts and for torts, and of various other topics. The inclusion of a list of the local acts affecting townships has also seemed advisable.
