That the commissioners were not commanded to report whether, in their opinion, the township ought to be divided, is fatal. True, they voluntarily certified that they thought the division proper; but in going beyond the terms of the order, they acted unofficially. They are to be sworn, but only to do those things rightly which they are commanded to do; and we know not that they swore to the truth of the opinion which they volunteered; officially, they certainly did not. Besides, that notice of the view should be 'given to the inhabitants, is a principle of natural justice; and the maimer of it ought to be prescribed by rule of court.
Order reversed and proceedings quashed.
