§63-1-2. Effect of such repeal in general.
Such repeal shall not affect any offense or act committed or
done, or any penalty or forfeiture incurred, or any right
established, accrued, or accruing, before the day this code takes
effect, or any prosecution, suit or proceeding pending on that day,
except that the proceedings thereafter had shall conform, so far as
practicable, to the provisions of this code; and where any penalty,
forfeiture or punishment is mitigated by those provisions, such
