hundred gallons of worts or wash which shall be mashed,

fermented or made in the distillery of any distiller from

malt or grain or any mixture of malt with grain, it shall be

lawful to compute a quantity of proof spirit at the rate of

one gallon of proof spirit for every five degrees of specific

gravity of such worts or wash which shall have been

Provided that in cases where an apparatus is made use of by means of which spirits are capable of being produced without the previous or intermediate production of low wines, then the distiller shall pay duty upon the deficiency found or ascertained by comparison of the first and third modes of computation as aforesaid.
