ceding months to mark the boundaries in the presence of the 

 interested parties, who shall be duly summoned by an order 

 of the prefect, as is prescribed in Art. 10. 



ART. 13. In case of disputes arising, either during the de- 

 limitation or in consequence of objections raised by bordering 

 owners, in pursuance of Art. n, they shall be brought by the 

 interested parties into competent courts, and the delimitation 

 shall be suspended until after their decision. 



Owners of border property shall have recourse to the courts 

 if, in the case provided for under Art. 12, the Waters and Forests 

 officers refuse to carry out the boundary marking. 



ART. 14. When the separation or settlement of the bound- 

 aries shall be affected by simply setting corners, the expenses 

 shall be shared equally. When it shall be effected by planting 

 hedges, these shall be carried out at the expense of the peti- 

 tioner, and made entirely on his land. 



ART. 15. In territories whose ownership has not yet been 

 settled or established, the notices which the department has 

 to make to the border owners, their farmers, guards and agents, 

 will be replaced by a general publication by means of the 

 public crier in the villages and markets, and by official notifi- 

 cations, addressed at least a fortnight in advance to the mayor 

 of the commune, and to the native assistant of the donar, 

 president of the djemae. 5 



In this case the expense of the boundary marking shall be 

 divided equally between the owner of the forest and the petitioner 

 or defendant.
