Objections to the form of a petition for a highway, not presented during the first four days of the return term, are waived (88th rule of court); and the statute (Gen. St., c. 207, ss. 8, 9) allows amendments in matters of form or substance, in any stage of the proceedings.
The finding of the court, to which the report of road commissioners is returned, on matters of fact, is not open to exception.
