Chap. 249.—An ACT for the relief of Jolin W. Stewart.
@ Passed February 27, 1867.
Whereas, at the special term of the circuit court of Alex-
ane, held in November, eighteen hundred and sixty-four,
a judgment for fine and costs, amounting to the sum of one
hundred and fifteen dollars and seventy-seven cents, was ob-
tained by the commonwealth of Virginia ‘against John W.
Stewart for failing to take an oath alleged to be required by
law, which oath he could not conscientiously take; and
whereas, the said Stewart did pay over to the sheriff of Al-
exandria, as appears from the return of the said sheriff, the
amount aforesaid, but he, the said sheriff, has failed to pay
the same into the public treasury: Therefore,
1. Be it enacted by the general assembly, That the sheriff
aforesaid be authorized and directed to refund to the said
John W. Stewart the sum of one hundred and fifteen dollars
and seventy-seven cents. ;
2. This act shall be in force from and after its passage.
