166. Every person who shall require any presentment for fees, poundages, salary, or other contingency, or payment whatsoever, for which grand juries are authorized by the provisions of this Act to make presentments without previous application to presentment sessions, shall lodge an application for the same, with a full detail of the particulars and amount thereof, with the secretary of each grand jury six clear days at the least previous to the day appointed for impannelling such grand jury; and such secretary shall insert an abstract of such applications at the foot of the proper schedule which he is required to deliver to the foreman of the grand jury, and also at the foot of the copy which he is required to keep in his office for the inspection of the public: Provided always, that such presentments for fees, poundage, or other contingencies or payments, the particulars and amount whereof cannot be ascertained so as to allow of their being specified when the application therefor shall be lodged with the said secretary at the time aforesaid, may be made by the grand jury, although such particulars and amount shall not have been so specified.
