Excerpt from The Liquor Laws for Scotland: Including the Licensing and Excise Enactments Presently in Force The Statutes which regulate and affect hotels, public houses, and the business of licensed grocers in Scotland are now so numerous - thirty-six in all - that it has become absolutely necessary, with a view to an intelligent knowledge of their provisions, not only by the holders of licences, but by Magis trates, officers of police, and others interested in the proper administration of these Statutes, that they should be published in a concentrated form. That has now been attempted for the first time, by the compilation of this volume, which contains copies of ten public General Statutes, and all the operative clauses directly affecting the liquor tra 'ic, extracted from nineteen public General Statutes, and seven Local Statutes, with notes. In 1878 a Royal Commission on Grocers' Licences in Scot land, presided over by Sir James Fergusson, Bart, conducted a. Careful inquiry on the Licensing Laws, and issued a most valuable and exhaustive report, a copy of which is printed in the appendix to this volume, and which is well deserving of careful perusal.
