It shall be permissible for the landowner and the bond and judgment holders of such bonds as may be adjudicated a lien on unpaid assessed benefits to agree, in writing signed by them and filed with the receiver, to compromise and settle the amount assessed and fixed as a lien on any particular tract of land for such sum as they may agree on. In such event the receiver shall, upon the landowner paying to him the agreed sum, issue to the landowner a receipt for the amount so agreed in full satisfaction of such lien; and such receipt may be recorded by the chancery clerk when signed and acknowledged by the receiver. The bond and judgment holders of such bonds as may be adjudicated a lien on unpaid assessed benefits may act by a common agency appointed by them for this purpose, which appointment shall be in writing and duly acknowledged and recorded in the land deed records of such county.
