PREFATORY NOTE.

THE General Statutes of the State will go into operation on the second day of December next. They have been printed under the direction of the undersigned, who were appointed by the Supreme Court, pursuant to a resolution of the General Assembly, "Commissioners to revise the Public Laws of the State, to consolidate all Statutes which relate to the same subject, and to digest the same under proper titles, chapters, and sections, and to report the same to the General Assembly, with such proposed improvements, alterations, and additions, as they may deem proper."
