Rhode Island enacts several measures including funding for a Quonset Point wharf, lottery and policy law penalties, and regulations for public notices in probate courts. Additional acts cover harbor obstruction removal, oyster fishery limits, nuisance provisions, and state government appropriations.
The joint committee is directed to erect a wharf for the state camp ground at Quonset Point with suitable tidal depth, and to contract for the work. An appropriation of five thousand dollars is authorized. The act validates J Adelbert Keach’s notary public acts and takes effect upon passage.
