§ 4108. Persons employing Indian children unlawfully to be fined. A
person, firm, association or corporation shall not employ any Indian
child residing on any Indian reservation between six and fourteen years
of age, in any business or service whatever during any part of the term
during which the school in the community or district in which such child
resides or the school where such child should attend is in session, nor
shall employ any Indian child residing on any reservation between
fourteen and sixteen years of age, who does not, at the time of such
employment present a consent in writing signed by the principal teacher
of the reservation or the principal of the district which educates the
children in the community in which such child resides to the effect that
such child may be employed, and specifying the nature of the service and
the duration of such service or employment. Any person, firm,
association or corporation who shall employ any Indian child contrary to

the people of the state of New York by the attorney general. Such
penalty, when paid, shall be used for the support and maintenance of the
