The judge's order misapplied section 68 because on the date of sentencing the prisoner was not 'undergoing' another term; the order did not reflect the judge's clear intention to add only six months to the earlier four-year term and would have made the prisoner serve substantially longer, therefore the Court quashed the two-year sentence and substituted a six-month sentence to give effect to the intended cumulative sentence and anticipated release date.
