PHILLIPS LEE GOLDSBOROUGH, GOVERNOR. 43

payment of a proportionate part of the license fee hereinbefore
provided for; licenses issued under this Act shall be transfer-
able only when the transferee shall duly establish his qualifica-
tions for the sale of spirituous, fermented or malt liquors as
though an original applicant for license, therefor, under the
provisions of this Act.

SEC. 19. And be it enacted, That no pharmacist or druggist
in Garrett County shall sell directly or indirectly any spiritu-
ous or fermented liquor or alcoholic bitters or intoxicating
drinks of any kind, except upon the written bona fide prescrip-
tion of a regular practicing physician of Garrett County, whose
name shall be signed thereto, all such prescriptions shall be filed
and kept by such pharmacist or druggist for two years, and they
shall also keep a book for the special purpose and enter therein
the date of every sale of intoxicating liquors made by him, the
person to whom sold, the kind, quantity and price thereof, and
the purpose for which it was sold; no prescription shall serve
for more than one purchase and no physician shall make or
sign any such prescription unless the person for whom it shall
be made is actually sick, or such liquor is absolutely required as
a medicine.

SEC. 20. And be it enacted, That any pharmacist or drug-
gist who shall violate the provisions of the preceding sections, or
refuse to produce the book before any court of justice when so
asked to do, shall render such druggist or pharmacist so fail-
ing, liable to the same penalties as if he had sold intoxicating
liquors without a license. Any physician who shall make or
sign any prescription for such liquor except as aforesaid, shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall be fined not less than fifty dollars, nor more than three
hundred dollars and cost of prosecution, and be committed to
the County jail of said County until such fine and costs of prose-
cution are paid; provided, however, that nothing herein shall
be construed to prohibit the sale or gift of liquors to be used in
case of extreme illness, when delay may be dangerous to the
patient, nor to prevent the sale by a pharmacist or druggist of
wine to be used for sacramental purposes solely.

SEC. 21. And be it enacted, That any person who shall sell
directly or indirectly at any place in Garrett County, or give
away directly or indirectly at any place of business in said
County, any spirituous, fermented or malt liquor, without first
having obtained a license as required by this Act upon indict-
ment and conviction thereof, for the first offense, forfeit and pay
