shall continue in authority over the entire township until their successors for both the townships of Plymouth and North ville shall have been elected and The date ot the passage of the act was April 8 though it was not to take effect until April 4 1898 The term of the justice of the peace does not expire until this month At the election April 4 last Lowden was elected to take the place of Webster
