BILLS OF SALE RULES.

(Cap. 20, section 24).

[12th July, 1886.]

1. A memorandum of satisfaction may be ordered to be written
upon a registered copy of a bill of sale on a consent to the satisfaction,
signed by the person entitled to the benefit of the bill of sale, and
verified by affidavit being produced to the Registrar and filed in the
Supreme Court.

2. Where this consent cannot be obtained, the Registrar may, on
application by summons, and on hearing the person entitled to the
benefit of the bill of sale or on affidavit of service of the summons on
that person, and in either case on proof, to the satisfaction of the
Registrar, that the debt, if any, for which the bill of sale was made has
been satisfied or discharged, order a memorandum of satisfaction to be
written upon a registered copy thereof.

3. If the attesting witness and deponent is a solicitor, and described
as such, the entry of the satisfaction will be directed by the Registrar
(the papers being otherwise correct) as of course; but in special
circumstances the Registrar may accept any other deponent, if satisfied
that he is a proper person to attest and verify the signature and consent.

4. These rules may be cited as the Bills of Sale Rules.
