The Act, Chaptered fifty-seven of the oh U per antag theAct, Chapergd farty- six, of the Statutes of Ontario, pass- ed in the thirty-second year of Her Majesty's reign, so far as they affect line fences, and all Acts, and part of Acts, respecting the subject provided for in this Aet are rgpealed. 2. Owners of occupied adjoining lands shall make, keep up and repair a just proportion of the fence which marks the boundary between them, or if there is no fence, they shall so make, keep up and repair the same roportion, which is to mark such undary ; and owners ofunoccupied lands which adjoin occupied lanis shall, upon their being. occu- pied, be liable to'the duty of keeping up and repairing such proportion, and ip that respsct, shall be in the same poeition as if their land bad been occupied at the time of . the original fencing and shall be liable inafter mentioned. 3. In tase of dispufe between own- ers respecting such proportion, the following proceedings shall beadopt- ed . Either owner may notify the other owner or the occupant of the land of the owner so to be notified,that he will not less than one week from the ser- vice of such notice, cause three fence viewers ot the locality to arbitrate in the premises. Such owners so noti- fying shall also notify the fence- viewers, rot less than one week be- fore their services are required.-- The notices in both cases skall be in writing, signed by the person noti- fying and shall specify the time and place of meeting tor the arbitration, and may be served by leaying the same at the place of abode of such owners or occupant with some grown up person re siding thereat, or in caso of such lands being untenanted, by leaving such notice avith any agent of such owner: the owners notified may, within the week; object to any or ali of the fence viewers notified, and in case of disagreement, the judge here- inafter mentioned shall name the tence viewers who are to arbitrate. 4. The fence viewers shall examine the premises, and if required by cither party, they shall hear evi. dence, and are authorized to examine the parties and their witnesses on oath, and any onv of them may ad- minister the oath or an affirmation as in courts of law. 5. The fence viewers shall make, an award in writing, signed by any two of them, respecting the matters so in dispute. The award shall specify the locality, quantity, de scription, and the lowest price of the fence it orders to be made, ard the time within which the work shall be done; and the award shall state by which of the said parties the costs of the proceedings shall be paid, or whetl.er either party shall pay some proportion of such costs; and in making such award, the feace viewers shall regard the nature of the fences in use in the locality, the pecuniary circumstances of the per- sons betwecn whom they arbitrate, and generally the suitableness of the tence ordered to the wants of each party ; and where from the forma- tion of the ground, by reason of streams or other causes, it is found impossible to locate th& fence upon the line between the parties, it shall be lawful for the fence viewers to locate the said fence either wholly or partially on the land of cither of the said parties, whore to them it may scem to be most convenient; hut such location shall not in any way affect the title to the land; if neces- sary, the fence viewers may employ a Provincial land surveyor, and have the locality degeribed by metes and bounds. 6. The award shall be deposited in the office of the Clerk of the Council of the Municipality in which the lands are sitnate.
