offense. If the value of the property stolen is of less amount, the
offense is called _petit larceny_, and is punished by fine or
imprisonment in jail or both.

Sec.15. _Perjury_ is willfully swearing or affirming falsely to any
material matter, upon an oath legally administered. _Subornation of
perjury_ is procuring another to swear falsely; punishable as perjury.

Sec.16. _Bribery_ is promising or giving a reward to a public officer, to
influence his opinion, vote or judgment. A person _accepting_ such
bribe, is punishable in the same manner, and forfeits his office, and,
in some states, may never hold another public trust. This offense is not
in all the states punishable by imprisonment in the state prison.

Sec.17. _Dueling_ is a combat between two persons with deadly weapons.
Killing another in a duel is murder, and punishable with death. If death

punishable offense in every state.

Sec.18. Aiding or attempting to aid a prisoner committed for felony, to

husband or wife living, and marrying another person, is guilty of
bigamy. An unmarried person, also, who shall marry the husband or wife
of another, is punishable in like manner.

Sec.20. _Incest_ is the marrying or cohabiting together as husband and
wife, of persons related to each other within certain degrees.

Sec.21. _Opening a grave_ and removing a dead body for any unlawful
purpose, or purchasing such body knowing it to have been unlawfully
disinterred, is a crime. This offense is in some states punishable by
imprisonment in a county jail, or by fine, and not in a state prison.
