This Act was to restrict the power of the President removing certain office holders without approval of the Senate.

The Amendment was later repealed.
Name Meaning

German and Swiss German (also Stöcker); Dutch: occupational name from Middle High German, Middle Dutch stocker ‘jailer’.
English: occupational name from Middle English stokker ‘one who sells stockfish’ (fish dried in the air without salt). This was the usual source of the name in medieval London, where a bylaw of 1419 stated that no stokker should board a ship to buy fish (presumably in order to forestall the market).
