No. 7.
    MOUNT HOLLY against PANTON.
    
      Rutland,
    
    1820.
    ' A warning to depart a town must be recorded before the end of the year’s residence of the person warned.
    THIS was an appeal from an order of removal. The part-per had resided more than one year in the town of Panton, had been warned within the year, but the warning, &c. was not recorded within the year.
   Decided — That the warning must be recorded before the end of the year of the pauper’s residence. At the end of the year the pauper has either gained a settlement or not; after the expiration of the year nothing can be done to alter the relative situation of the town with other towns, and it is important that other towns should be enabled then to ascertain the facts by the records.
