32. At the end of each of such sessions the registers shall be made
to agree, where there is any difference between them, and then the officers

33. It shall be the duty of the board of registry after the close of
the last-mentioned session to note for erasure from such registry the
names of all persons known or supposed to be dead, and the names of
all persons who are suspected of being disqualified under sections 2
and 3 of article 1 of the constitution of the State, and the names of all
persons who are supposed to have removed from such precinct and
have not taken out removal papers, and of all persons who are suspected
to be otherwise disqualified as voters, and they shall before separating
make out a list of all persons so noted for erasure, with the address as
the same appears upon the registers. In making out such list said
board of registry shall treat as persons suspected of not being qualified
voters all persons against whom a sworn complaint is filed by any voter
in the ward or county. Such complaint shall be, in substance, as follows :
"I, ————, a voter of ———— county, do solemnly swear that I believe
————, who professes to reside at ————, is not a qualified voter in
the ———— precinct of ———— county, on the ground" (here state
reasons). If a majority of the board know, or are satisfied, that such,
complaint is untrue, they need not note such name for erasure unless
required by a member of the board. Said list shall be arranged under
the following headings: "Disqualified Voters," under which shall be
placed the names of persons suspected to be disqualified under sections
2 and 3 of article 1 of the constitution or otherwise; "Deceased Voters,"
under which shall be placed all who are known or supposed to be dead;
"Removed," under which shall be placed all who are known or supposed
to have removed from their last address. The member of the board
acting as clerk shall forthwith ascertain the facts as to all such persons
on said list in the manner hereinbefore provided in the case of the
first registration, and shall give such persons the notice provided for
in the case of the first registration.
