S..44[1][99] Page 83 [Whereas by any Act... regulations are made for... prevention
of vexatious suits.][ S 44[1][99] [ Whereas by an Act].p.24. The title
of this first mentioned Act (23 G.3.c.70) Act being very long, the recital of it, (it
was thought) might be spared: especially as it is
sufficiently identified by the next mentioned Act
which refers to it. (24 G.3.c.47

S.44[2[[][ regulations] The heads
of these regulations are - Officers and their assistants not to be sued
for executing their office any thing done in execution
of their office, till after a month's notice,
stating particularising the cause of action &c - they may then tender
amends, which if sufficient shall intitle them to
costs, or may afterwards pay it into Court - no
evidence to be produced of any other cause of action
than what is contained in the notice - Limitation
of Actions - General Issue - Treble costs.
Claimers of goods seized, to prove payment of the
duties - Penalty for obstructing Officers, to forfeit
£100.

S.44.[3[100]Page 83. [Or in his aid] The words of this clause
are with very little variation transcribed from
the words of 24 G.3.47. The only material
variation is - the substitution of the word 'or' in
this passage to the word and. A stranger,
seeing an Officers of the Revenue hard pressed
by a smuggler or other malefactor, may, without
hisany order from him, and even without his
knowledge, step in to his assistance: it would evidently be
not only hard to upon the individual, and but prejudicial to
the service, if this public-spirited stranger were to
stand excluded from the protection extended by the Act
to persons who are paid by the public for their assistance.
