and whose duties shall be as follows: Within sixty days from the time of
his appointment by his respective board, it shall be the duty of the clerk of
the circuit court of Baltimore city and the clerk of the circuit court for
each county in the State to furnish the secretary-treasurer of each board a
list of all physicians who have been legally registered in such court. To
all those physicians who have at that time been practising in the State
without having been legally registered said secretary-treasurer shall send
a printed notice of the section of this article relating to the duty of the
police commissioner in Baltimore city and the sheriffs of the counties of
the State under this law. Within four months of the time of his appoint-
ment he shall see that all physicians entitled to register have been registered,
and that the names of all those who are not entitled to be registered under
this sub-title have been presented for prosecution to the state's attorney of
the city of Baltimore, and of each county in the State in which the accused,
respectively, reside. Those physicians, who, being entitled to register under
this sub-title, yet have failed to comply at the expiration of this time—four
months from the election of the secretary-treasurer of the board—shall also
be prosecuted, and no one after the eleventh day of April, 1902, shall be
allowed to practice medicine or surgery without being duly registered
according to the provisions of this sub-title. The secretary-treasurer shall
keep the official records of the board for which he is secretary, as provided
for in section 118 of this sub-title, the examination papers of applicants
for at least three years, after they have been passed upon by the board,
after which they are to be destroyed, and a complete list of all registered
physicians in the entire State. He shall call to the attention of the state's
attorneys of Baltimore city and of the different counties throughout the
State all violations of the law under this sub-title. He shall collect and
hold all moneys belonging to the board, for which he shall give bond to the
State of Maryland in the sum of $1,000, the same to be held by the president
of the board. He shall receive from the income of the board such salary as
his respective board may determine.
