hogshead of tobacco inspected, by tying them together with a strong tape
run through the head of said sample in such manner as shall be most likely

and number of the hogshead, the date of inspection, and the name or
number of the warehouse, and shall seal said tape and label with sealing
wax, and shall stamp it with the seal of the warehouse. Whenever a hogs-
head of tobacco is redrawn or reviewed, the sample and label thereon of
