ceding Section, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof, before any justice of the peace in either of said Counties, shall pay
a fine of not less than ten dollars, nor more than twenty-five dollars for each
and every offense; and in default of payment of fine or fines imposed here-

Wild Fowl on Patuxent and Tributaries.

An. Code, sec. 60. 1904, sec. 51. 1904, ch. 509, sec. 1. 1906, ch. 471i, sec. 1. 1914, ch. 314.

77.1 It shall not be lawful for any person not a bona fide resident of the
State of Maryland to hunt, shoot or trap within the State, upon the waters
of the Patuxent river, its tributaries, or marshes of said river or tributaries,
any wild goose, wild duck, snipe or ortolan, reed-bird or birds or wild fowl
of any description, at any season of the year, unless such non-resident
person shall have first obtained from the clerk of the circuit court of one
of the counties bordering on said river a license permitting such person
named in said license to hunt, shoot or trap the said birds and wild fowl
upon the waters of the said river, its tributaries, or marshes of said river
or tributaries; and the said license so obtained shall be limited, said limita-
tion to be stated in said license to the open season for shooting the aforesaid
birds and wild fowl, shall not be transferrable, under penalty of forfeiture
of the same and a fine of not more than twenty-five dollars, and shall expire
one year from the date of its issue. Any person desiring such license shall
apply for same in person to said clerk of the court, and shall pay therefor
the sum of ten dollars, which amount shall be paid by the said clerk to the
board of county school commissioners of said county in which the said
license was issued, for the use of the public schools thereof, and, in addition
thereto, such persons securing said license shall pay to the said clerk the
sum of one dollar as a fee for issuing said license; said clerk shall prepare
and keep a book, substantially bound, of such blank license, with stub
thereto, and when such license is issued by him a full memorandum thereof
shall be entered on the stub of such license, which stub shall remain in said
book, and be a public record of said office; and before such license shall be
delivered to the applicant therefor, such applicant shall write his name and
address both on said license and on said stub. Any non-resident who violates
any of the provisions of this section shall be deemed guilty of a misde-
meanor, and, upon conviction thereof in the circuit court or before any
justice of the peace of the State of Maryland in and for any of the counties
bordering on said river, shall be fined five dollars for each wild goose, wild
duck, snipe, ortolan or reed-bird, or other birds or wild fowls, so shot or

1 While act of 1914, ch. 314, repeals act of 1906, ch. 471 1/2—erroneously called in title
to said act ch. 471 1/2 of act of 1910—no reference is made to act of 1904, ch. 509, and
hence it would seem that latter act has not been expressly repealed and accordingly it
is codified. It may be that if the question should arise, the courts would hold that this
section is impliedly repealed by act of 1914, ch. 315.
