tion precedent thereto, the Village and this Council hereby covenant and agree that

Vill.age may also discharge any prepayable bonds acco�ding to their terms, by depositing

bonds of such issue for redemption on the next date when they may be prepaid in accord-
ance with their terms, by giving the notice required for such redemption, and by
