expenses of protecting and propagating certain birds and animals, and
preventing unauthorized persons from killing the same, no person or
persons shall at any time hunt, pursue or kill in any manner any game
as defined in Section 44 of this Article, without first having procured
a license and the written permission from the property owner or tenant
on whose property said person may be hunting to so hunt, pursue or
kill, and then only during the respective periods of the year when it
shall be lawful to hunt, pursue or kill birds and animals. The said
license shall be procured from the Clerk of the Circuit Court of any
County or from the Clerk of the Court of Common Pleas of Baltimore
City in the following manner, to wit:
The applicant shall fill out, sign and forward to the Clerk of Court a
blank application to be furnished by the State Game Warden through
the Clerk of said Courts, stating the name, age, color, height, color of
eyes, and hair, occupation and place of residence of the applicant. Ap-
plication for any such license may be made through the mails. The
applicant, if a non-resident of the State of Maryland, shall pay to the
Clerk of the Court in which he files his or her application, the sum of
Ten Dollars ($10) as a license fee; if a non-resident landowner, of any
County, to the assessed value of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) he shall
pay a fee of one dollar ($1.00), which will entitle him to hunt in the
County in which his lands are assessed, and if he shall desire a State-

shall pay a fee of Five Dollars ($5.00), which said license may be
issued by the Clerk of any Circuit Court or by the Clerk of the Court
of Common Pleas of Baltimore City. The Clerk of the Court shall
thereupon issue a license, to be supplied to the said Clerks by the State
Grame Warden, and the said license shall bear the signature of State
Grame Warden, and shall be countersigned by the Clerk issuing the
