Whereas the trustees of school lands in township numbered two south, range numbered eight east, in Wayne county, State of Illinois, did, under the school laws of said State, survey, divide, and sub-divide, section numbered sixteen, in said township, and value the same, which said valuation, together with the plat, has been duly returned to the office of school commissioner and agent for the inhabitants of said county; and whereas the said land was valued too high, as appears from the fact that it did not sell when offered at public sale; nor did it sell at private sale: Therefore,

Sec. [Section]1. Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly, That so much of the acts of the said trustees as relates to the valuation of the said land be, and the same is hereby, rescinded; and the said trustees, or their successors in office, be, and they are hereby, authorized and required to revalue said land, and report to the school commissioner and agent for the inhabitants of said county, as though there had been no valuation; and said school commissioner shall proceed to advertise and offer for sale as by law directed in other cases.

Approved, February 9, 1839.
