STATE LAWS. 
Tlic f')Il()wini:- di.Li^'st of the laws of the various States relates chieH}' 
to tli(' ti-aiisportatioii and sale of <j^aine. Sections which contain pro- 
hibitions aj^aiiist transportation and sale merely durm(j close scaso)is 
are oniittiMl, since th(\v are so common that their repetition seems 
unnec(\ssary. IIcMice no extracts will ])e found from the laws of 
Kentucky, or Louisiana, and the only section quoted from the laws of 
Mississippi is one defining gume. Definitions of game are quoted also 
from the statutes of other States which contain such definitions, and a 
few othci- sections have ))een inserted when necessary for the sake of 
clearness; l>ut as far as possible the extracts have been restricted to 
those ti-catingof the trade in game. As a rule the statutes are quoted 
vcri)atim, but in some cases abstracts onl}' are given, which are yjlaced 
in brackets.
