§ 33. Penalties. Every person found traveling and trading within this

state contrary to the provisions of this article, or contrary to the

article, shall, for each offense, forfeit to the town in which the

offense shall be committed the sum of twenty-five dollars, to be applied

to the support of the poor of the town. Every person traveling or

trading within this state, having a license, who refuses to produce a

license as a peddler to any officer or citizen who demands the

production of the same shall, for each offense, forfeit to the town in

which the demand is made the sum of ten dollars, to be applied to the

support of the poor thereof. The refusal of any such person to produce a

shall be maintained unless it be brought within sixty days after the
