collector of Baltimore to collect the damages and expenses that

to be collected, or in case of neglect or refusal to pay, by a public
sale of the property ascertained as aforesaid to be benefitted by the
opening of said communication, or so much thereof as shall be necessary,
of the person or persons so neglecting or refusing to pay,
he giving at least thirty days notice of such sale, previous thereto,
in two or more of the news-papers published in Baltimore; and the
said several sums of money, when thus collected, to pay over to
the person or persons respectively entitled to receive the same; and
in case the person or persons entitled to damages, refusing to receive
the same when tendered, the tender thereof shall be considered
as good and efficient to enable the city commissioners to proceed to
open the street, as if the said damages had been received; Provided
always, that nothing herein contained shall be construed to
prevent the ultimate payment of damages to such person or persons
as may be justly entitled to receive the same, without interest,
from the time of making such tender; and as a compensation for
his services the said collector shall be entitled to a commission on
the whole amount to be by him collected of seven and one half per
cent. |
