ELECTIONS. 417

last-mentioned precinct, and that a certificate of removal be furnished
me at this time. "

The foregoing affidavit shall be written or printed on the back of such
certificate of removal, and when presented to the Board of Registry in
the precinct in which such applicant resides, it shall be taken by said
Board and returned to the office of the Supervisors of Elections. When
such certificate shall be granted by a Board of Registry, or by the Super-
visors of Elections or a clerk designated by them the name of such appli-
cant shall be erased from the register of the precinct from which he
removed. At the end of each such sessions the registers shall be made to
agree where there is any difference between them, and then the officers of
registration having the custody thereof shall sign their names or initials
in their respective registry books immediately under the last name regis-
tered under each letter on said registers so that no new name can be
added thereto without discovery. It shall be the duty of the Board of
Registry, after the close of each session to note for erasure from such
registers the names of all persons known or supposed to be dead and the
names of all persons who are suspected of being disqualified under Sec-
tions 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 city.
Such complaint shall be as follows:.......................... a voter

of......... ward, do solemnly swear that I believe...................

who professes to reside at..................... is not a qualified voter

in the............. precinct of the............. ward, on the ground

(here state the reason). 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 heading: "Disqualified Voters, " under which shall be
placed the name 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.

On each of the Tuesdays before separating, the members of said Board
of Registry representing each of the two leading political parties, shall
make out and deliver to two of their number of opposite politics a list of
the names and addresses of all those whom are on the registers of voters
as qualified voters whom the officers of registration in accordance with the
foregoing provisions of this Section have noted for erasure. The said two
officers of registration to whom such list is delivered shall thereupon pro-
