SINCE the passage of these sheets through the press, the Superintendent has decided that inhabitants of school districts may legally vote a tax not exceeding $400, for building, hiring or purchasing a school house, under § 70, (No. 92,) without the certificate of the Town Superintendent, in addition to the avails arising from the sale of the former site and house of the district: thereby over-ruling the decision of Gen. Dix, at page 183, of the volume of Common School Decisions.
