10th Houses ia the snne terms Is approved, It is
nu!lity; TINT where the error rented only
10 one Independent section, TINT alone would
be declared void. he therefore nfilrus that
the approval Of the first bill was roid only
as to the section eontasn'n.: the crncrecnc7
csusc, nnt valid IN all other respects, Or void IN

WAS necessary. Under tho other It was The tn
