Chap. 0018. An act to remit a part of a sentence passed by the Senate of this Commonwealth against John Vinal, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk, upon an impeachment by the House of Representatives, on the twenty-sixth day of the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred.

WHEREAS, John Vinal has represented to the Legislature the great affliction and distress suffered by himself and family, under a sentence of the Senate of this Commonwealth, passed on the twenty-sixth day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred. And the said John Vinal, having since the passing of the said sentence, conducted himself as a good citizen:

Be it therefore enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives, in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, That so much of the said sentence, and no more, as declares the said John Vinal disqualified from holding any office of honour, trust, or profit under the government of this Commonwealth, be, and it is hereby remitted. And the said John Vinal is hereby restored to all the rights and privileges of a citizen as though the sentence aforesaid had never been passed. [June 24, 1806.]
