Whereas the said agents, servants and employees of the State De-
partment of Agriculture and Immigration performed said dipping opera-
tion which resulted in the death of twenty-one lambs, the property of said
Steve Wise, all to the damage of the said Steve Wise in the amount of
three hundred fifteen dollars ; and,

Whereas Steve Wise is without an adequate remedy at law to com-
pensate him for the damage which he has sustained; now, therefore,

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
