Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Relating to Weights, Measures, and Weighing Machines The law relating to weights, measures, and weighing machines is now, for the most part, contained in the "Weights and Measures Act, 1878," which came into operation upon the first day of January in the present year. The arrangement of this book follows closely the order of the Act itself, and notes have been added to the different sections which, it is hoped, will be of use both to those who have to obey the law, and to those who have to carry the provisions of the statute into effect. In preparing these note the Memorandum prefixed to the Act when passing through Parliament has been freely used; and much help has been found in the twelve Annual Reports of the "Warden of the Standards," issued during the years 1866-78.
