Attorney General, etc.
MEMPHIS. TENN. April Is. 1883

John League. ESQ.,, County Court Clerk.
DEAR SIR: / have received your favor
of to-day, making the inquiry as to
whether it was your duty, under the fifth
sectien of the amended revenue law, to
construe the intention of the Legislature
to impose. tax on vehicles known as
"drsys.'
After careful consideration OF the SEQ
ton you refer to, | am of opinion that
the word vehicle" was used by the
Legislators with view of including, in
one general term, any kind of convey
ance running on land, not otherwise
specially designated in said section.
Certainly dray is run for pay, the same
as q hack or carriage, The statute makes
no distinction between the carrying of
goods and persons, and | can see no
reason for assuming what plain con-
struction of the statute will not justify
Courts-especially of the United States
allow general words to be taken more
broadly than specific, when such appears
to have been the meaning of the Legisla-
ture-l8 Ala, 687, mo. 536, I'd Mclean
IA, 9 Hump. GAG. For reasons herein
expressed, / am of the opinion that
OrayB are lUCluutu III thO BOuSie ~
term vehicle" and should be taxed
accordingly.
Respectfully, your obedient servant.
j. B. WOODWARD,
County Attorney.
From the above, think it is plain that
I was instructed to collect from the
owners of dreys the same tax as that
imposed on vehicles and as the word
"vehicles occurs but in one paragraph
in the entire law, was forced to the con-
clusion that the tax was to be ten dollars
to the State and ten dollars to the county.
However, if the Attorney General and
the County Attorney say that have mis-.
construed the instructions given me,
shall most cheerfully recede from the
position, and avail myself of the earliest
opportunity to have the excess already
collected from the few who have paid re-
funded to them by the State and county.
I.eannot believe that it was the desire OF
the State to impose an oppressive tax on
any one class of the community, nor that
her officers should force citizens in de-
tense of their rights 10 unnecessary liti-
CATION hence this explanation. Thank
ing you for so much of your valuable
space, | am, sirs, with much respect,
your obedient servant,
JouNy ToInur Gnnntv Clerk
