* ''Bass v. Albright'', 59 S.W.2d 891, [https://texaslegalguide.com/images/059_SW2_891.pdf#page=5 895] (Tex.Civ.App.–Texarkana 1933, ref'd) ("As a method of legislation, in order to avoid unnecessary verbiage, express reference may be made to laws . . . . Therefore as the Constitution was adopted by vote of the people and as the ordinance was an integral part of it, such ordinance must be considered as legally adopted by vote of the people upon its submission to them. As a consequence the execution in evidence would then be existing and valid at the date of the levy and the sale. The Constitution became effective on April 18, 1876, at which date the execution was not functus officio but valid.")
