The first | sub-are.ion made it a felony to en grave or make upon any plate whatsoever or upon any wood. stone or other material, any word number or figure. that a man who made such » plate committed a felony. Sub-scition 2, made in

a felony to úra or knowingly have in poserasion euch a plate or wood, stope or other material,that was one which had been engraved under sub-section 1. The first sub-section dealt with the ongar. ing and making of a plate, and the second with the man who had : such a plate in his possession. The third and last, sub-sec ion dealt with the man who had in his possession any paper or other material upon which there wasR an impression.
