Whenever any county cannot obtain by contract, for a reasonable price, any land required for public use, its commissioners, agents or committee, authorized by the county convention to procure such land, may prepare a written location, containing an accurate description of such land, and give notice of a hearing thereon before the commissioners, which notice shall be served as required by law for notices of hearings before selectmen on petitions for highways; and all provisions for the hearing of highway petitions before selectmen shall apply to such hearings so far as the same are applicable, but the return of the location and of the assessment of damages shall be filed with the clerk of court for the county.
