§ 7-3-25. Books received from sheriffs distributed.
 

The secretary of state shall receive from the several sheriffs, who are required to return the same, all extra copies of the "Mississippi Reports" and digests, and he shall see that said sheriffs perform the duty required of them in this respect. If there be less than the required number of copies of any report or digest in the state library, he shall supply the deficiency from the reports so returned to him. Out of the residue of the reports so returned, he shall, as far as possible, supply each county with the books needed to complete the set belonging thereto and shall take the receipt of the sheriff therefor. Any books not thus disposed of shall be preserved in his office and sold as other like books.
