tained up to the close of the fiscal year next preceding the ses-
sion, and cancelled as aforesaid, and shall make report of their

which they shall perform said duty.

ARTICLE XCVI.

Weights and Measures.

The Act of June 21, 1881, ch. 78, professes to repeal section 226 of Article 2 of the
Public Local Laws as far as relates to the Counties therein named. This is clearly
an error, and the evident reference is to section 18 of this Article, which 19 taken
from the Act of 1860, ch. 226, sec. 2, which the author of the law probably had
before him, and hence the error. We therefore insert the Act of 1861 here:

SEC.. 1. Section two hundred and twenty-six of Article two of
the Public Local Laws, is hereby repealed so far as its provisions
apply to the sale of Potatoes in the counties of Frederick, Wash-
ington, Allegany, Anne Arundel, Carroll and Montgomery.

ARTICLE XCVIII.

Wild Fowl.

The Act of 1862, ch. 43, amends and re-enacts sections 13 and 15 of this Article, as

follows:

SEC. 1. No person shall trap, shoot, or in any manner catch or
kill any partridges, between the fifteenth day of January and
the twentieth of October, nor any woodcock, between the first
day of February and the tenth day of June, nor any pheasants,
between the first day of February and the twelfth day of August,
in each year.

2. Any person violating either of the preceding sections, shall
pay a fine of five dollars, to be recovered before a justice of the
peace of the county where the offence was committed, which fine
shall be paid to the County Commissioners for the county in
which the case shall be tried, for the use of the common school
fund.
