*See important foot-note on page 1150, relative to the validity and operation of
sections 230 to 247, sub-title "Undertakers," particularly of sections 236, 237
and 244.

+The act of 1910, ch. 645 (p. 1173), also repealed and re-enacted section 244 (so
as to make sections 230, et seq., applicable to Washington county). Although the
act of 1910, ch. 645, was approved on the same day as the act of 1910, ch. 399
(p. 401), and the former, owing to its number, is presumed (in the absence of
proof to the contrary) to have been approved later, it is thought from the title
to chapter 645, and from the nature of the two sections, that chapter 399 was
intended to be the latest expression of the legislative will, and hence, chapter
645 is not codified.
