The session laws for 1806 have a separate title page and are also recorded separately at Shaw & Shoemaker 15869: Acts of the General Assembly of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, passed at a session, which was begun and held at the borough of Lancaster, on Tuesday, the first day of December, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and seven. And of the independence of the United States of America, the thirty-second. Published by authority.
"This volume comprises the laws and resolutions passed during two sessions of the legislature, from December 2d, 1806, until March 28th, 1808, inclusive.--In printing the acts of the second session, an error ... occurred in the paging. The paging instead of having reference to, and being in continuation of the laws of the first session, begins with number one ... such reference in the index, having an asterisk (*) affixed to it, is intended to direct to a page of the laws passed during the second session."--Preface, p. [i].
