HENBY V. GOLD PA&K MIKING CO. 11 �This coui-t cannot follow the court of appe^ls withodt obviously ignor- ing the plain and conclusive adjudication of the supreme court upon the same question in Town of Venice v. Murdock. �It must, therefore, be determined that the plaintiff is entitled to judgment, although he failed to show that the requisite number of taxables had assented to the issuiug of the bonds. ���Henbt and others v. Gold Park Mining Co. (Uircuii Court, D. (Jolorado. December 20, 1881.) �1.

This certainly cannot be applicable to a debt due ��� �
