without rounding up their cattle it is of course a great damage to cattle to round them up when as in this ease case they are scattered through the moun mountains taGs and I 1 find nothing in the statute which expressly authorizes it I 1 would like your opinion as to whether the assessor would have a legal right to round up their nattle under these theme circumstances would you advise 10 it 2 replying thereto permit me to say that the power of the assessor Is ia defined in section 18 et at seq of the revenue act page of the laws of 1896 Hi his powers are limited by these provisions I 1
