NOTES.
CHAP. 32. It does not appear that this statute
ever extended to the province, and before it was
made, several acts of assembly had been passed
relating to the same offence; besides the act
touching pagans in 1647, the act concerning religion
1649, Ch. 1, made blasphemy punishable by
death and confiscation of lands and goods to the
proprietary.
There was another act in July 1699, Ch. 36,
which was repealed in 1704, and one in 1705, Ch.
34, nearly the same as the act of 1728, which yet
stands unrepealed. There were some cases of
prosecutions under these acts, and one as late as
1782, under the common law.
