A MISPRINT having been discovered in Section 60 of “The Malicious Injuries to Property Act 1867,” as printed in the Statute Books, a copy of that Section from the original Roll is reprinted here for general information.

W. GISBORNE.

Intent to injure or defraud particular persons need not be stated in any indictment.

60. It shall be sufficient in any indictment for any offence against this Act, where it shall be necessary to allege an intent to injure or defraud, to allege that the party accused did the act with intent to injure or defraud (as the case may be), without alleging an intent to injure or defraud any particular person, and on the trial of any such offence it shall not be necessary to prove an intent to injure or defraud any particular person; but it shall be sufficient to prove that the party accused did the act charged, with an intent to injure or defraud (as the case may be).
