Whereas the above-bounden A. B. hath been duly appointed treasurer [or as the case may be] of the Loan Society, established as aforesaid, and he, together with the above-bounden C. D. and G. H., as his sureties, have entered into the above-written bond, subject to the condition hereinafter contained: now therefore the condition of the above-written bond is such, that if the said A. B. shall and do justly and faithfully execute his office of treasurer [or as the case may be] of the said society established as aforesaid, and shall and do render a just and true account of all monies received and paid by him, and shall do and pay over all the monies remaining in his hands, and assign and transfer or deliver all securities and effects, books, papers, and property of or belonging to the said society, in his hands or custody, to such person or persons as the said society shall appoint, according to the rules of the said society, together with the proper or legal receipts or vouchers for such payments, and likewise shall and do in all respects well and truly and faithfully perform and fulfil his office of treasurer [or as the case may be] to the said society, according to the rules thereof, then the above-written bond shall be void and of no effect, otherwise shall be and remain in full force and virtue.

In these schemes all instalments after the first are to be paid weekly. Other schemes may be formed from these by advancing or postponing the day of payment of the first instalment, provided that the first payment is not made sooner than the eleventh day, and that not more than one penny per pound is added to the interest for every thirteen days of such postponement, or that not less than one penny per pound is taken off the interest for every thirteen days of such advance.

Thus: Scheme 6. may be altered by making the first instalment payable on the twenty-second day after the loan, and taking seven-pence per pound for interest, and so of the rest.

N. B.-A few short titles, viz. "Fruit," "Funds," "Funerals," "Furious Driting," &c., which should have been here inserted, will be found at the end of the following title, “Game.”

Game.

By the 1 & 2 Will. IV. c. 32, a most material alteration of the game
laws was effected; for, by this statute, it is no longer requisite that a
party should be qualified to kill game; and any person may kill it on
taking out a certificate for that purpose, subject to the law of trespass.
There are, however, certain restraints on tenants killing game on their
lands. Any one may now buy or sell game under certain restrictions.
Greater facility is given to the punishment of trespassers. Actions for
penalties are put an end to. The offence of night poaching remains as
before the passing of this statute.
