the body of the Act: if few in number those clauses may
be noted referred to to us in the clause of commencement as containing
exceptions to it.

except Sections g.23. & 54. which see." There under each

If many they may be aggregated together separately —
from the rest of the Act, preceded by a general clause
of Commencement of their own

The two Commencement clauses will then stand thus —

CLAUSE 1st

This Act commences from the 4th July as far as the 36
first Sections.

CLAUSE 2d

What follows commences from the 30th of Sept.r 1774

But whether his be done by a 2d General Clause of Commencement
or by exceptions to the 1st depends a good deal
upon the Subject matters of the several substantial Clauses
whether they easily admitt or not of such a partition separation.
RULE OF EXTEnt Let the local extent of the Act be expressed once for all
at the head of the Table next before or after the clause —
of commencement.

COMPOS. Stat. Single qua Stat. — Commencement. Extent BR
