be entitled to the pension or salary provided by this subsection, or
any portion thereof. In the event that a retired judge engaged in the
practice of law should thereafter relinquish such practice and notify

County of such fact, then, from and after the date of such notifica-

subsection. This subsection shall apply to all judges already retired
from active service except as provided herein. Any former judge who

George's County of such fact, then from and after the date of such
notification the judge shall be entitled to all the benefits as provided
by this subsection. The County Commissioners of Prince George's
County are hereby expressly authorized to levy for and pay pensions
and salaries, to such former judges of the People's Court who served
on the said court upon the terms and for the periods as herein pro-
vided; and any such provision heretofore made is hereby ratified
and confirmed.

shall be paid one-half of the pension to which such judge would have
been entitled on the date of his death if he had been eligible for
retirement and had retired on said date irrespective of whether he

of every such judge who dies after retiring shall be paid one-half of
the pension which such judge was receiving at the date of his death.

married to him for a period of not less than three years prior to his
death, and, in the case of a death of a retired judge, not less than

pension under the provisions of this subsection shall be paid for

is to cease and terminate. The provisions of this subsection shall
apply to the widows who have not remarried and who are otherwise
qualified as provided herein, or judges who died before May 1, 1963
JANUARY 1, 1962.
