connection therewith, determine any question arising and make such order
as justice may require in respect to the validity and regularity of such
election. The proceeding shall be heard upon verified petition and such
oral or written proof as may be offered and, in addition to the notice
hereinafter required, upon such further notice to such persons as the
court or justice shall direct. The proceeding shall be summarily
determined and shall have preference over all other causes in all

the clerk of each town in which any portion of such territory is
located. No costs shall be allowed to any party to such proceeding.
