Long title

edit

The long title that was given in the article seems as if it might pertain to a different Act?

An Act against clandestine Running of uncustomed Goods, and for the more effectual preventing of Frauds relating to the Customs

Or perhaps it's the case that this Act was mainly concerned with customs, and dealt with the adulteration of coffee in passing, and it was only this latter part of the Act that was still on the books when it got given its short title? Silverhelm 04:20, 13 December 2006 (UTC).Reply
