standing the expiration of his term of three weeks, aforesaid; but
no one summoned as a juror shall be excused from service except
in open court, on good cause shown to the satisfaction of the

596. It shall be the duty of said judges, or a majority of them,
to assemble as hereinbefore in this sub-title of this article provided,
on 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 to three weeks during each term of each of the
said courts which may require the attendance of a jury; at such
meetings the said judges, or a majority of them shall cause the
names of those who have served on any of the regular panels of
the aforesaid courts since the making of the list of qualified jurors
as aforesaid to be stricken from said list; and the persons whose
names are so stricken from said list shall not be liable to serve
again as jurors for two years, accounting from the beginning of
the term for which their names were so entered on the list of
qualified jurors; the said judges, or a majority of them shall then
add to said list of qualified jurors such qualified persons as shall
suffice to make up the number of seven hundred and fifty quali-
fied persons, or thereabouts. From the said whole number the
jurors to serve for three weeks from the ensuing Monday shall
then be drawn for the said courts, and their names be recorded in
the said jury books in the manner hereinbefore provided by this
sub-title of this article, under the superintendence of one or more
of said judges. And if, at the time of any drawing, juries shall
not be required for all of said courts, then it shall not be necessary
to draw panels for the court not requiring them, but jurors shall
be drawn for such courts only as may need them, in the manner
hereinbefore provided in this sub-title of this article, and in the
