                      Historical and Revision Notes

    Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 663 (R.S. Sec. 5279).
    Last sentence of said section 663, relating to rescue of such 
fugitive, was omitted as covered by section 752 of this title, the 
punishment provision of which is based on later statutes. (See reviser's 
note under that section.)
    Minor changes were made in phraseology.
