150 REPORT OF THE 



County of Kings. They shall then cause a notice to be published in 

 three daily newspapers published in said county that the same has 

 been completed and filed, and that they will meet at a time and place 

 therein to be specified, not less than ten days from the first publica- 

 tion of such notice, to review their report. During that time the 

 said report may be examined free of expense by all persons inter- 

 ested. At the time and place specified in said notice any person may 

 offer objections in writing to the said report and accompany the same 

 with such affidavits as he may think proper. The said commissioners 

 shall thereupon, or as soon thereafter as conveniently may be, review 

 the said report and correct the same where they shall deem it proper, 

 and shall again file the same in the office of the Clerk of the County 

 of Kings. The head of said Department of Parks shall then cause 

 a notice to be published in the corporation newspapers that the said 

 report has been completed and filed, and that application will be made 

 in behalf of the City of Brooklyn to the Supreme Court at a special 

 term thereof, at a time to be specified in such notice, not less than 

 ten days from the first publication thereof, to have the said report 

 confirmed. During the said ten days the said report shall remain 

 open to the inspection free of expense of all persons interested, and 

 any such person may within that time appeal from said report. Such 

 appeal shall be by notice, to be served on the Corporation Counsel 

 within the period last mentioned, and at least six days before the 

 time at which the said report is to be presented for confirmation. 

 The notice of appeal shall be accompanied with copies of the affi-

 shall be intended to use or refer to the same on such appeal, and also 

 with a brief statement in writing of the grounds of objection to the 

 said report, and of the manner in which it is contended that the same 

 ought to be altered.

 sustain the same. No cause against confirmation shall be heard 

 unless an appeal shall have been taken in the manner provided by 

 the preceding section of this act. If no sufficient reason to the con-

 opinion of the court, the report ought not to be confirmed, it may 

 refuse to confirm it. In the event of such a refusal the court shall,

 the same or other commissioners, who shall proceed to revise and
