122. Any person who shall make any bet or wager upon the result of
any election to take place in this State shall be liable to indictment, and

nor more than five hundred ($500) dollars to be paid to the State for

where shall be forfeited and paid over to the county commissioners of
the county where deposited for the use of the county; or, if deposited in

The forfeiture attaches to the deposit the moment it is made, and commissioners
may recover same in their own names. Knowledge of this section is imputed to every
person having such a deposit. It is not essential that both parties should deposit
money. The deposit of a note of a bank is a deposit of money. Doyle v. Baltimore
