Excerpt from Manual for the General Court, 1937, Vol. 25: Prepared and Published by the Department of State The numbering of the sections of Part II first appeared in the Revised Statutes of 1842. In 1889, when the tenth section of Part II was stricken out, all subsequent sections were renumbered, with the result of making much confusion in citations. In this copy the original number has been placed in parenthesis at the side of the revised number. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
