66. Delivery tickets—In general.

All deliveries of solid fuel to purchasers who are consumers there-
of, except solid fuel which is sold in bags in lots of one hundred
pounds or less, not exceeding a total of one-quarter ton, shall be
evidenced by a "delivery ticket." Such delivery ticket shall bear
upon its face the following statement: "I hereby attest that I have
delivered to the purchaser named herein the quantity and kind of
coal specified in this ticket," and this statement shall be signed in
ink or indelible pencil upon the original and one of the duplicate
originals by the person actually making the delivery. Every delivery
ticket shall also contain upon its face, in ink or [indelible pencil,]
other indelible marking equipment and, in clarity, equal to type or
printing, the following information: (a) date of issuance; (b) name
and address of the person, firm or corporation selling the solid fuel;
(c) the name and address of the purchaser; (d) the quantity in
pounds and the kind, grade and size of the solid fuel delivered;
(e) the complete signature of the licensed weighmaster issuing such
ticket, together with his license number; (f) the license number on
the vehicle carrying the solid fuel. Every delivery ticket shall be
issued in triplicate, shall be serially numbered in each yard or
branch, and shall be used only in consecutive order. One of the
delivery tickets issued shall be used as the delivery receipt and shall
be signed on its face by the recipient of the solid fuel or his agent.
Another one of such delivery tickets shall be given to the purchaser
at the time of making the delivery. Every driver or person in charge
of a vehicle in which solid fuel is being transported for delivery to
a purchaser within the State of Maryland, shall at all times have
in his possession delivery tickets for the solid fuel so transported
or delivered, shall present them for inspection to any police officer
upon request, and shall present them to the purchaser before unload-
ing or attempting to unload the vehicle. The actual amount of the load
of solid fuel being transported or delivered shall not be less than the
weight represented in the delivery ticket or tickets, [provided that
in all cases sixty (60) pounds to a ton may be considered as an
allowance for variation in scales and wastage,] and the kind and
size of the solid fuel being transported and delivered must be as
specified on the delivery ticket. Any person transporting or deliver-
ing solid fuel in the State of Maryland except in the manner pro-
vided for in this section, shall be deemed guilty of a violation of
the provisions of this section, and upon conviction thereof shall be
punished by a fine of not more than five hundred dollars ($500) or
by imprisonment for not more than six (6) months or by both fine
and imprisonment. Where solid fuel is delivered in car load quan-
tity to a single consumer or to one or more consumers who have
agreed to divide a car load lot and who are transporting the solid
fuel from the siding or have made arrangements for such trans-
portation, the delivery ticket shall show merely the initial, number
and location of the car from which said fuel was unloaded, the date
of delivery and the name of the person making delivery. [Nothing
in this section shall apply to the delivery of coal to or from a boat
or to the delivery of bituminous coal from the mines in Maryland
