No mayor may have a share in merchandize brought by outsiders into the port, unless he or his nominee is present at the sale; except in the case of wholesale cargoes, in which the mayor may have a share the same as those present at the sale, even if not present. No tax-assessor or parliamentary burgess, nor anyone else busy in the service of the community, may have a share unless he or his nominee is present at the sale.
