not things. IL Is seldom that there IL any
risk whatever I'm allowing vessel with
contagion on board to come directly to
the wharf. The sickness can be handled
there even better than In midstream.
Some Of the statutory provisions are
inconsistent with one another, and there
fore II Is impossible TO enforce them and
the rules for auarantining and for quar-
antined vessels without causing unneces-
sary expense for the city and unnecessary
hindrances TO commerce. At present only
vessels from European, Asiatic or chol-
era infected ports are subject 70 quaran-
tine, and no such vessel has arrived here
for four years.
Certain foreign vessels arriving here
must be inspected. because, according 20
an aot Of congress they cannot enter at
the custom house without certificate OF
inspection from the health officer. This
rule covers all foreign vessels. except
those from the British provinces. as
sumo that l can refuse to inspect these
vessels and refuse certificate unless
their masters comply with my directions
IL seems to me that under these condi-
tions and with the Inspections carried on
as they have been. there Is no more dan
ger OF Infection entering this port than at
New York or Boston.
1T would seem. however. only reason
able that there should be a revision OF
the statutes relating 20 quarantine and
the vessels subject 10 quarantine should
anchor or moor wherever directed by the
health officer. and that no person should
60 on board or leave the vessel without
permit from the health officer. When the
statutes have been revised the board OF
aldermen may then, very properly, make
the quarantine applicable 20 the classes Of
vessels subjected 20 quarantine by the
rules promulgated By the secretary Of the
treasury. Respectfully submitted.

The first is in regard 10 the witnessing

made his own last testament He wrote the
will himself and IN his ignorance of tho Law
subscribed his name before j. was Wit

document was his will and signature and
they made attest alton to that fact
Some persons who wore not n they

ment. learned tia, tho witnesses did not

reason the will was void

The court has thrown ont the second
will and upheld the first, holding that the
revocation was irregular. chiefly because

testator's writing and that he intended
