Orvis v. Thompson , 1 Johns. 500 ( 1806 )

Per Curiam.

The license produced by the defendant below, was valid. The act of a majority of the commissioners of excise, was sufficient, and it was so considered in the case of Palmer, qui tam. &c. v. Downey, decided in this cpurt, in October term, 1801. The supervisor may, in his "discretion, associate more than two justices with him, as commissioners of excise. The number is not limited by the act to three and no more. The consent of the supervisor is not indispen sable If a majority of the commissioners present sign the license, it is sufficient. The judgment below, must be reversed?

Judgment reversed.
