— The language of the statute, Revised Stat*495utes, c. 119, <§> 63, is not obscure or ambiguous; nor is it inconsistent with any other provision therein.

The legislature may have overlooked the effect of their language in this instance; but if they have, it is for that body to cure the defect. We are not at liberty to do it.

The exceptions are overruled, and the judgment of the District Court is affirmed.
