Jesse H. Fonda and Others, Constituting the Board of Assessors of the City of Schenectady, New York, Appellants.
Order affirmed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements. All concur, except Bliss, J., who dissents, in part with a memorandum. Bliss, J. (dissenting). I concur in the affirmance of that portion of the order appealed from which denies the motion to quash the writ. I dissent from the affirmance of and vote to reverse that portion of the order which appoints a referee to take evidence, on the ground that the appointment of a referee before the return has been filed is premature.
