or a majority of them, shall select and cause to be added to said list; and
the said drawing shall be made, and the names drawn shall be recorded in
the manner provided in Sections 605 and 606; and the talesmen shall be

611. Every petit juror sworn upon any special panel shall continue to
serve thereon until discharged by the court, notwithstanding the expira-

juror shall be excused from service except in open court, on good cause
shown to the satisfaction of the court; and if any juror summoned, and

the Thursday preceding the fourth Monday of each term, and thereafter
so long as a jury may be required for any of said courts, from three weeks

of qualified jurors such qualified persons as shall suffice to make up the
number of seven hundred and fifty qualified persons, or thereabouts. From
the said whole number the jurors to serve for three weeks from the en-
