In case the highway commissioner, or upon appeal from his decision, the county superintendent of highways, shall finally determine against the advisability of the proposed laying out, widening, alteration or vacation of such township or district road, such order shall have the effect to annul and revoke all proceedings and assessments, releases and agreements in respect to damages growing out of the proceedings upon the petition aforesaid.

The highway commissioner or county superintendent, as the case may be, shall within 5 days from the date of his final order, cause the same, together with the report of the surveyor, the petition and the releases, agreements or assessments in respect to damages, to be deposited and filed in the office of the district clerk; who shall note upon such order the date of such filing. It shall be the duty of such clerk to record such order, together with the plat of the surveyor in a proper book to be kept for that purpose.
