registration, and a space where he shall sign his name, or where the regis-
tration official shall sign his name for him if he be unable to write, in
which case the person registering shall make his mark. The Supervisors,
acting as Registration Officials, shall have the registration books at the
place and at the times designated as above set out for registration, and
shall swear each applicant for registration, and if upon examination of
such applicant they both agree that such applicant is a qualified voter in
accordance with the provisions of Section 113 hereof, they shall each reg-
ister his or her name, and all persons so registered shall be entitled to vote
at town elections so long as their names appear upon such registration
books.

The Supervisors of Election, acting as Registration Officials, on the first
of said registration days herein provided for, whenever an affidavit is made
before them by any registered voter of said town that any name upon
said books is not entitled to be thereon, shall note said name, and shall, by
placing in the United States mail addressed to said voter at the place of
residence set out in said registration books with sufficient postage prepaid,
a notice that his name has been noted for striking off and that they will
act thereon on the second day of registration, notify the party whose name
has been noted that they will act upon his right to remain upon said books
on said second day of registration. The said Supervisors of Election,
sitting as Registration Officials, may also on said first registration day
take such action with regard to any name of their own motion. On the
second of said registration days the said Supervisors of Election sitting
as Registration Officials shall pass upon all of the names noted as above
set out, and after hearing such evidence as may be presented before them,
shall determine whether such name shall remain upon said books, or shall
be stricken off, and in case they shall decide that any of such names shall
be stricken off, they shall draw a line in red ink through such names on
the registration books and shall write in red ink at the end of said line
the words "stricken off," the reason therefor, and the date, and the party
whose name is thus stricken off shall not be entitled to vote in said town
until his name be replaced thereon as hereinafter provided.
Any person feeling aggrieved at the action of the Supervisors of Elec-

striking his name from the books, or in registering some other person, or
refusing to strike from the books the name of some other person, shall
have the right of appeal to the Circuit Court of Prince George's County
at any time within five days, exclusive of Sundays and legal holidays,
from the action of the Officials by whom he is aggrieved, which appeal
shall be by way of petition for review addressed to said Court and naming
as defendants the Registration Officials and the party whose name the
petitioner desires to have stricken from the books, if it be such a case,
and said Court shall, as soon as possible, set said case for hearing and
notify the defendants and require the presence at such hearing of the
Registration Officials aforesaid, and if the determination of said Court
upon such question is different from the determination thereof made by
