United States Statutes at Large/Volume 6/2nd Congress/1st Session/Chapter 22

Wikisource editor’s note: Although the chapter number is stated as “XXI” in the text, this appears to have been an error by the original compiler. The table of chapters in Volume 1 omits a Chapter 22, and there is a properly designated Chapter 21 in that volume, both of which suggest that the text given below was actually intended to be numbered as Chapter 22.
