* Section 3 of the act of 1916, chapter 556, provides for the repeal of all public
general laws and public local laws or parts thereof Inconsistent with said act
of 1916.
tApparently it was not the intention of the act of 1916, chapter 556, to repeal
section 676, although the matter is not entirely clear.
++Sections 677 to 691 (as well as sections 523 to 539, 623 to 675 and' 692 to 727)
were repealed by the act of 1916, chapter 556. That act, however, adopted new
sections to be known as sections 623 to 657, and, in order to avoid extending the
number of sections of article 27, the sections of chapter 211 of the act of 1916 and
of chapter 4 of the act of 1917, are given the numbers 677 to 691.
