4. Every person who, without having such a license as aforesaid in force, uses as a slaughter-house any place within such district as in the last preceding section mentioned other than a slaughter-house, which was in use at the time of the issue of the Proclamation by which such district was constituted under the provisions of "The Local Boards Act 1873," shall for each such offence forfeit, on conviction, a sum not exceeding five pounds, and a like penalty for every day after such conviction upon which he shall so offend.

   For confining the use of licensed slaughter-houses to the slaughter of any particular kinds of animals.

And every person offending contrary to any such regulation shall forfeit, on conviction, a sum not exceeding five pounds, and in the case of a continuing offence a further sum not exceeding ten shillings for every day during which such offence shall continue after such conviction.
