GENERAL OBSERVATIONS. The Information for all of the offences (excepting offences Nos. 19, 20, Oke's Syn., 2d ed. p. 120, Forms No. 15 and 16, post) in the first eight divisions of this title may be drawn in the General Form No. 3, ante, p. 25 (a), adding at the foot or indorsing on the back, the Deposition of the witness to the offence, required by the 6 & 7 Will. 4, c. 65, s. 9, to be made by another person than the informer, as follows:

"And E. F. of the parish of in the said county of, a cre-

summoning the said A. B., the party accused, or compelling his
appearance to answer the same, and upon his oath duly deposes
and swears that the charge contained in the said information is
true and correct."

The Summons would be in the General Form No. 8 (A.), ante, p. 26, the
only variation being to add after the usual recital of the information:
"And whereas after the exhibiting of the said information, but before
any proceeding had or taken thereupon, the matter and charge
contained in the said information is now duly deposed to before
me, the said justice, upon the oath of E. F., of the parish of
in the said county of -
a credible witness, according

to the form of the statute in such case made and provided."
The warrant, where the summons is disobeyed, and also the warrant in
the first instance (b), will also be the same as the General Forms No. 10
(B.) and 11 (C.), ante, pp. 26, 27, placing the variation as directed for
the summons, supra. The conviction, as well as the necessary forms to
be used in enforcing them, are the same without exception as in the
General Forms in Jervis's Act, the description of the offence, as here
shown, being all that is wanting, with names, dates, and sums, to perfect
them.

The information for the offences under the ninth division ("Night Poaching") of this title, as well as for those described in Forms No. 15 and 16, post, may be drawn in the General Form No. 1, ante, p. 23, on oath, without any deposition by another person, the statute 6 & 7 Will. 4, c. 65, s. 9, applying only to offences prosecuted under the 1 & 2 Will. 4, c. 32.
