253                                                         AND PROPER TO BE INCORPORATED.                                                    253

calendar by which, among other uses, Easter day, &c. in any year are to be discovered until the
year 1899, and which is referred to by the makers of Almanacs.  There are, however, some parts of
the calendar which are not necessary to be continued.  These are the lessons for morning and evening
prayer, which, under our constitution are to be considered as matters to be regulated by religious 
societies themselves, and not by law.  The same may be said as to the moveable feasts and holy-days,
(excepting by custom, Easter and Whitsuntide,) and as to all the feasts throughout the year, 
except Sundays and Christmas day.  The same as to the vigils, fasts and days of abstinence; also
the solemn days for which particular services were appointed, to wit:  The 5th of November, the
30th of January and the 29th of May, respecting which we have ceased to feel any interest.

CHAP. 44.  An act for rendering justices of the peace more safe in the execution of
    their office; and for indemnifying constables and others, acting in obedience to
    their warrants.  (Part.)

    The 2d section, respecting the tender of amends, &c. was probably in force, and if so, is proper to
be continued.
 

25 George 2.--A. D. 1752.

-----

CHAP. 6.  An act for avoiding and putting an end to certain doubts and questions
    relating to the attestation of wills and codicils, concerning real estates in that part
    of Great-Britain called England, and in his majesty's colonies and plantations in
    America.

    This statute, as appears from the title, was to extend to the province, and it is known to have been
practised under.  See Deputy Commissary's Guide, p. 75.  I find no provision in the testamentary
law to interfere with this statute, which is therefore considered proper to be incorporated, &c.

CHAP. 30.  An act to amend an act, made in the last session of parliament, entitled,
    An act for regulating the commencement of the year; and for correcting the

    calendar now in use.  (Part.)

    See the note on 24 George 2, Ch. 23, except as to such parts as related particularly to London.
 

29 George 2.--A. D. 1756.

-----

CHAP. 31.  An act to enable infants, lunatics and femes covert, to surrender leases
in order to renew the same.

    See the note on 4 George 2, Ch. 10.
 

11 George 3.--A. D. 1771.

-----

CHAP. 20.  An act to enable lunatics entitled to renew leases, their guardians and
committees to accept of surrenders of old leases, and grant new ones.

    See the notes on 29 George 2, Ch. 31, and 4 George 2, Ch. 10.
