laws by different persons, and erroneous I'm
preston frequently results In heavy costs to ind
viduais who are unintentiOnal offenders The
amending, repeating, and rec nacting of laws since
the publication Of Sheahan's Digest, have mysti-

upon the operative acts. An instance occurred in
the present Council, when the police committee
reported an act repeating part Of an act relating to
geese running al large. After the resolution was
adopted. they discovered they had repealed a law
