§ 302. Power to search; return

In the daytime, a sheriff may enter and search houses, buildings or other places for a person for whose apprehension he has a warrant, issued in a criminal prosecution, a prosecution for bastardy, or on a bailpiece. He may so enter with a warrant or extent for the collection of taxes, or the collection of a fine, or with a warrant to search for goods or chattels stolen or purloined, when such property is supposed to be secreted therein. He shall not make return in any case that he cannot execute any such precept.
