ART. XXXIII] REGISTRATION. 253
persons registered, and a separate list of all persons refused registra-
tion, and of all persons whose names are erased from the registry. In
the City of Baltimore, at the end of each session, they shall deliver these
lists to the police officers on duty at the registration office, and the list
shall be delivered by the said officer to the Police Board, and by the
Police Board to the Board of Supervisors of Election, in the forenoon
of the clay following the said sitting. (The Board of Supervisors for
the City of Baltimore shall then cause such list to be printed in hand-
bill form, in plain, long-primer type, and copies thereof posted within
three days after each session in such manner that they may be easily
read, in at least ten prominent places in each precinct.) Nothing in
this Section 17 shall affect the registration in the Counties heretofore
made under this article.
See notes to this section in volume 1 of the Annotated Code.
1916, ch. 569.
17A. On the Tuesday preceding any primary election to be held in
any year in this State and which shall occur after the enactment of this
law, each Board of Registration shall meet at the place designated by
its Board of Supervisors of Election, and shall proceed in the manner
set forth in Section 17 hereof, to make a registration of all the voters
in its precinct or district, as the case may be, who have not previously
registered and who may be entitled to vote at the next General Election
and shall present themselves before said Board for registration, and
such person or persons so registered shall be entitled to vote at all prim-
ary and general elections held thereafter; provided that nothing in this
section shall apply to Baltimore City, nor affect the law now in effect
governing the registration of voters therein.

The fact that a man was registered on an additional registration day
provided by this section, which made no provision for a "suspect" list, held
not to give the court jurisdiction on a petition alleging that a disqualified
man had been registered, unless the registration officers took action upon
some objections to such registration properly before them. See notes to
section 25. Hanson v. Daly, 129 Md. 2S9.
1904, art. 33, sec. 23. 1896, ch. 202, sec. 22. 1914, ch. 723. 1916, ch. 158, sec. 24,
1918, ch. 247, sec. 24.
24. At the end of the last session above provided for, the said Board
of Registry shall compare and correct the two registers and make them
agree, and the officers having them respectively in their custody shall
then immediately under the last name registered under each letter of
the registers sign their names, so that no other names can be added
without discovery; all of said officers of registration shall then subscribe,
at the end of each register, a certificate, in substance, in the words fol-
lowing: "We, the undersigned, constituting the Board of Registry in
.....................precinct or district of.....................
