Bouvier's Law Dictionary and Concise Encyclopedia

The place where treasure is kept; the office of a treasurer. The term is more usually applied to the public than to a scriptive of a particular building, but whenever and wherever moneys are in the official custody of the treasurer or subject to his direction they are to be considered as in the state treasury.

People v. Mc Kinney, 10 Mich. 86.
