Source notes

¹. The s. 2 relating to repeal of enactments was rep. by the Repealing Act, 1870 (14 of 1870). A section defining Chief Controlling Revenue-authority was added by s. 2 of the Court-fees (Amendment) Act, 1901 (10 of 1901), and was slightly amended by the Repealing and Amending Act, 1917 (24 of 1917). For the definition of the Chief Controlling Revenue-authority see now the General Clauses Act, 1897 (10 of 1897), s. 3(10). The A.O. 1937 rep. s. 2 as in force elsewhere than in Bengal. In that Province the section subs. by the Court-fees (Bengal Amendment) Act, 1935 (Ben. 7 of 1935), s. 3 contains definitions of appeal, Chief Controlling Revenue-authority, Collector and Suit.
