Chap. 39.—An ACT to release Michael Laupheimer from the payment
of a Forfeited Recognizance.

Approved January 15, 1875.

Whereas, it appears to the general assembly that a judg-
ment has been rendered in the corporation court of the city
of Alexandria against Michael Laupheimer upon a forfeited
recognizance entered into by him in the sum of one hundred
dollars, for “his appearance as a witness in the trial of an
indictment for larceny pending in said court, and that the
inilure of said witness to attend was caused by his ignorance
of the obligation upon him,.and from no purpose to disre-
vard his duty as witness; and that the enforcement of said
judginent would be oppressive upon him because of his
poverty:

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly, That upon the
payment by the said Michael Lauphcimer of the costs of said.
judgment, he sball be and is hereby released from the pay-
ment of the one hundred dollars stipulated in said recogni-
zance, and exonerated from the payment thereof.

2. This act shall be in force from its passage.
