Description

ERROR to the Circuit Court for the District of Missouri, the case being thus: On the 10th June, 1852, Congress, by statute,1 granted to the State of Missouri, to aid in building railroads from Hannibal to St. Joseph, the right of way through the public lands, and every alternate section designated by even numbers for six sections in width on each side of said roads. The statute directed that 'a copy of the location of the roads, made under the direction of the legislature,' should be forwarded to the proper local land offices and General Land Office at Washington; and that the lands thus given should be disposed of by the State for the purposes contemplated, and for 'no other.' On the 20th September of the same year, the legislature of Missouri, by an act passed to accept the bounty of Congress,2 required that the lands should be selected by the company, under the direction of the governor, and that a copy of the 'location of the road' should be certified to the local land offices and the General Land Office, in conformity with the act of Congress.
