Section 6. Commitment of Disorderly Minors; Appeal
If such magistrate or justice be satisfied, by competent testimony, that such person is a disorderly child within the description aforesaid, he shall make up and sign a record of conviction thereof, and shall, by warrant, under his hand, commit such person to the House of Correction, employment and reformation; and the powers and duties of the said managers in relation to the said children shall be the same in all things as are prescribed as to other minors received by them; and it shall be the duty of such magistrate or justice as aforesaid, in addition to the record of conviction, to annex the names and residence of the different witnesses examined before him, and the substance of the testimony given by them respectively, on which the said conviction was founded: Provided, That any person committed shall have the same right of appeal as is now secured by law to persons convicted of criminal offenses; but on such appeal, mere informality in the issuing of any warrant shall not be held to be sufficient cause for granting a discharge. 1871, June 2, P.L. 1301, Sec. 6.
