Greenwood Township Road

Opinion by

Rice P. J.,

The seven assignments of error may be considered under the three heads adopted by the appellant’s counsel in their statement of the questions involved.

1. The Act of May 8, 1889, P. L. 129, fixing the number of road viewers at three, did not repeal section 3 of the Act of February 24, 1845, P. L. 52 which was extended to Columbia county by the Act of April 10, 1846, P. L. 286, and which, so far as signing the report is concerned, requires only that it be “signed by a majority of their number.” Granting, therefore, that one of the re-reviewers had neither signed nor assented to the report prior to the first day of the term to which the order was returnable, it nevertheless would have been a valid report, if filed without his signature, because, admittedly, it had been agreed to and signed by the other two viewers several days before: Springbrook Road, 64 Pa. 451. This being so, it is impossible to see how the signing of the report by the third viewer on the return day vitiated it, even if the extreme prop*551osition be conceded that a viewer’s authority to join in a report must be exercised before that time or not at all. In a case arising in Allegheny county, which was subject to the act of 1845, the supplemental report was signed by two of the viewers and a third person who had not been appointed, and yet it was sustained: Road in Springdale Twp., 91 Pa. 260. That case goes far beyond what must be decided in this in order to sustain the report. True it purports on its face to be unanimous, and it was so in fact. If the third re-reviewer gave his assent too late to be of any legal effect, still, as the presumption is that the report was filed or caused to be filed by the re-reviewers, it stands as the act of the majority, and as such is lawful and valid.

2. It is urged that the report is defective because it does not show that the re-reviewers met at the time and place designated in the notice. But as the statute does not require that this fact be specifically set forth in the report, the presumption that the viewers did their duty in that regard will prevail unless there is something on the face of their report from which an inference to the contrary may legitimately be drawn, or the fact that they did not meet at the time and place appointed be established by evidence. See Road in Springbrook, 64 Pa. 451; Road in South Abington, 109 Pa. 118; In re Melon Street, 182 Pa. 397, 406; Road in North Franklin Twp., 8 Pa. Superior Ct. 358; Road in Herrick Twp., 16 Pa. Superior Ct. 579.

After the report of the re-reviewers was presented for confirmation exceptions were filed to it and at the same time a petition was presented for a re-re-review. The court directed this petition to be filed to await the disposition of the exceptions. It is claimed that it was error to confirm the report of re-reviewers absolutely without formally disposing of the petition above referred to. To this it seems to be a sufficient answer to say that the granting of a re-re-review is discretionary with the quarter sessions and that the confirmation absolute of the report of re-reviewers was in effect a refusal of the petition. Presumably the court exercised its discretionary power in thus confirming the report.

We find no reversible error in this record; therefore all the assignments of error are overruled and the order is affirmed.
