1872 OF THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES. 247 appears to have been unexecuted, for a number of years; probably owing to its uncertainty, or the want of sufficient clerical force in the office of Treasurer. That, as the Legislature manifestly intended by the afore- said law to have all coupons recorded before cancellation in the order in which they were paid, they deemed it advisable not to burn any coupons, but we recommend the repeal and re- enactment of 24th section of Article XCIV. of Code of Pub- lic General Laws, and herewith beg leave to report a bill for that purpose. We also recommend the employment of an additional clerk in the office of Treasurer, as it will be impossible to execute the law as to the recording, &c., of these coupons by the present clerical force, which consists of a single clerk, and we herewith beg leave to report a bill for that purpose. All which is respectfully submitted. HENRY WILLIAMS, F. STONE. AMENDMENTS PROPOSED. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland, That the 24th section of Article XCIV. title "Treasurer," of the Code of Public General Laws, be and the same is hereby repealed and re-enacted so as to read as follows : Section 24. The Treasurer of the State shall record all State coupons that have been or may hereafter be paid and returned to the Treasury by the agents employed to pay the interest on the public debt, and shall, together with the Comptroller, at the close of every month examine and burn all such coupons that have been recorded, and shall make a report of their proceedings showing the amount of the value of such coupons to the Legislature at each Session thereof. Which was read, and On motion of Mr. Stone, Ordered to be printed, and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. Mr. Shipley, Chairman of a Select Committee, reported. favorably, The Senate bill, entitled a supplement to an Act entitled an Act to incorporate the Hillen Road Company of Balti- more county, passed at January Session, 1854, chapter 99, and supplements thereto, passed at January Session, I860, chapter 51, and at January Session, 1867, chapter 214. Which was read a second time. |
