AN ACT to legalize any Replacement Volumes to the Annotated
Code of the Public General Laws of Maryland (1957 Edition),
prepared and published by the Editorial Staff of The Michie Com-
pany, Charlottesville, Virginia, and making each such Replace-
ment Volume evidence of the law.

Whereas, the General Assembly by Chapter 23 of the Acts of

1957 and by successive acts from year to year thereafter has legalized

the 1957 Edition of the Annotated Code of the Public General Laws

of Maryland and successive annual pocket supplements thereto, all

published by The Michie Company; and

Whereas, Because of the volume of amendments affecting some
portions of this Code, The Michie Company has published and will
continue to publish Replacement Volumes which incorporate all the
laws to the date of publication; and

Whereas, It is desirable, that these replacement volumes be le-
galized in evidence in order that they may be used by the Bench and
Bar of Maryland; now, therefore
