  1. The drawing (bib) stop and ball cocks must be
    strong and of hard brass, and, the better to secure
    watertightness, of the kinds from time sanctioned and
    approved by the directors; and unless and until due
    notification to the contrary, the drawing cocks must be
    of the best and most approved kind of those called

    pipes, cocks, cisterns and other apparatus and conve-
    niences for delivering, receiving and using such water.

  5. Persons offending against any of the foregoing
    Bye-laws shall forfeit and pay for each offence a sum

    any person who will give such information as shall lead
    to the conviction of any person who shall fraudulently
    attach any pipe or pipes to the pipes of the Company,
    or to any pipe, cistern or apparatus connected therewith,
    or to or into which the water of the Company shall
    flow or proceed, or who shall fraudulently use or other-
    wise misappropriate the water of the Company, or who

    used, or otherwise misappropriated.
