Excerpt from Preliminary Draft of a Bill Codifying the Existing General Laws Relating to Boroughs: Revised Draft In preparing this code the law has been taken practically as it stands, changes being made only to clear up ambiguous provisions, eliminate redundancies and super uous expressions, and harmonize con icting statutes. A few minor changes have been made in mat ters of procedure so as to make the whole system logical and uniform so far as the nature of the material permits. All changes of any nature have been noted in the appropriate place in the Exposition. The concluding chapter of this bill contains a specific repeal of all general acts and parts of acts relating to boroughs. The object is to have all the borough law of the State, other than local laws, com prised in one statute. It will not alone simplify the law, but will render any reference to it sure and easy. In a task involving so much and so varied details it is inevitable that errors have occurred - both of omission and of inclusion. We shall be deeply gratified if the person into whose hands this revised draft comes will read it carefully. Criticize it fully and, freely and send any resulting suggestions or recommendations to the undersigned at an early date.
