I concur, therefore, fully in the opinion intimated by your question: •• Why not provide for the issuance by the grantees of their own bonds, prescribing the amount, guaranteeing payment of the interest, requiring registry in the treasury department, and compelling the creation of a sinking fund from the income of the road to secure the payment of the interest and principal of the bonds.
