CHAPTER 271.

Passed Mar. 19, 1833

An act to provide for the payment of Jurors in Allegany
County.

Preamble.

WHEREAS, The present mode of compensating Jurors
in and for Allegany county, is greatly incompatible with
the public interest and welfare, as well as oppressive to in-
dividuals, because of the distance of Cumberland, the Coun-
ty Town, from the residences of many who are summoned
as Jurors, and because of their being compelled, from the
present state of things, to remain unpaid for their services
for the space of from nine to eighteen months, or otherwise
to barter their certificates at a considerable discount —
Therefore,
