Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supplementary Index to the Session Laws of the State of New York: With All Changes and Modifications Noted and Under a Single Alphabet From Session of 1897 Down to Session of 1901 The following pages are intended as a supplement to the Index of the Session Laws of New York State, prepared, in 1897, by William H. Silvernail. That book covered the statutes from the time of the organization of the State to and including the end of the year 1896. The present volume covers the Session Laws from January 1, 1897, to January 1, 1901. The general plan of the earlier work has been followed, with some modifications. All the matters relating to particular cities have been placed under such cities, and, as a general rule, each subject has been placed by itself instead of being grouped under general heads. The index has been made very full; for example, references to amendments to the Codes appear under the proper alphabetical subjects, and also under the Codes themselves, where lists are given of the sections amended from time to time. By means of the original index and this supplement, public officials, the bar and the public are furnished, in substantially one work, with a complete alphabetical and chronological index of all the statutes of the State of New York - an end very much to be desired. The statutes, especially the local and private laws, are practically inaccessible and useless, unless a thorough index is provided either by the State, or by the efforts of private citizens. These indices have usually been undertaken by the State, but an examination of those prepared and published in New York shows that in this, as in many other matters relating to our statutes, satisfactory work is not done in the name of the State.
