Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical progression of laws associated with the relief of the poor in New York. With the objective of consolidating the many laws developed over time, the author sought to provide an accessible and thorough legal reference regarding the subject. The book begins by outlining the fundamental principles governing poor relief laws, including the responsibility of specified relatives to provide support, as well as the authority to seize property when necessary. It then proceeds to present laws pertaining to county superintendents of the poor, their duties, qualifications, and the framework for their appointment and removal. The text further establishes guidelines for the appointment, duties, and compensation of overseers of the poor, while outlining the distinction between town and county poor. This comprehensive volume explores the settlement of paupers and establishes proceedings to determine the town responsible for their support. It additionally covers the provision of relief to paupers, including the process for removal to county poorhouses, the responsibilities of overseers and justices, and the allocation of expenses among towns and counties. The book concludes with regulations concerning disorderly persons, apprentices, and various penalties and forfeitures related to the support of the poor. By consolidating and presenting these laws in a cohesive manner, the author provides invaluable guidance to those seeking a comprehensive understanding of New York's legal framework for poor relief. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
