18-158a. Boundary line between Marshall and Washington.
That the boundary line dividing and separating the counties of Marshall
and Washington, state of Kansas, shall hereafter be as follows: Commencing
at a point on the north line of the state where said line is intersected by
the range line dividing ranges five and six east of the sixth principal
meridian; running thence south on said range line, to a point forty feet
north of the line between sections six and seven, in township four south,
of range six east; thence east parallel with said section line, to the
middle of the Little Blue river; thence south eighty feet; thence west, to
the said range line; thence south along said range line, to the southeast
corner of said county of Washington as now constituted: Provided, That
this portion of sections 6 and 7 so added to the territory of Washington
county shall only be used as a public highway to reach the Little Blue
river, and to give the county of Washington authority to join with the
county of Marshall and build a bridge over said stream, and that in case
such bridge shall not be built within five years from the passage of this
act, or that after the building of said bridge it shall ever be abandoned
as a public highway, then the territory hereby annexed to Washington county
shall revert and become again a part of the territory of Marshall county,
and the boundary line restored the same as though this act had not passed.
