road bond debts outstanding, the newly created road district may
issue bonds for the purchase of roads within the previously created
district, subdivision or precinct; providing that such bonds shall be
authorized and issued in the form and manner prescribed by General
Law; providing that nothing in this Act shall affect or impair any bond
debts of previously created road districts, subdivisions or precincts,
portion of which may be included within the subsequently created road
district, but that such indebtedness shall remain chargeable against the
territory voting the same; providing that where a two-thirds majority
of the qualified tax-payers and voters of any road district embracing
portions of any previously created road district, subdivision or precinct,

subdivision or precinct, portions of which were and are included
within the new district, and also, voting on the proposition of the

orders in respect of any such bonds which have not been issued and

of the property of the former district, subdivision or precinct, included
in the new district, bears to the assessed valuation of such former district,
subdivision or precinct; enacting provisions incident and necessary
to the subject and purpose of this Act; providing a method for
the issuance of such bonds; and declaring an emergency.
