UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT DECISIONS ON-LINE

1. The rulings in Harter v. Kernochan, supra, p. 103 U. S. 662, reaffirmed.

2. Although the records of a township, which was authorized by the statutes of Illinois to make a donation to a railroad company and issue bonds in payment thereof, contain no evidence of a meeting of the township whereat the qualified voters assented to the issue of bonds in payment of a donation for which they have previously voted, the recital in the bonds that they were issued in pursuance of those statutes is conclusive upon the township in a suit brought against it by a bona fide holder to enforce the payment of them.
