or of removal to another precinct within the city, the Board shall cause the
signature to be compared with the original registration form of such appli-
cant, and if such signature appears to be the same, entry of such affiliation
or change of affiliation or change of residence on the original and duplicate
registration cards or forms shall be made. If the Board is not satisfied as to
the signature on the written notice, or that the change should be made,
notice shall be sent the applicant by mail directing him or her to appear
at the office of the Board to answer such questions under oath as may be
deemed necessary. If it shall appear from a written notice of removal
or from personal application that the applicant for a transfer has removed

attached to the original and duplicate cards of such applicant, and he or
she shall be notified to appear in person at the office of the Board during
a period to be named in such notice, which period shall begin forty-two days
and end thirty-five days prior to the next general election at which the
applicant would be entitled to vote under the provisions of Section 1 of
Article 1 of the Constitution; provided that, if the applicant would not be
entitled to vote in the precinct to which he or she has removed at the general
election next following the date of such notice, such period shall begin
six months after the date of removal and end thirty-five days prior to the
date of the next subsequent primary or general election. Upon failure to
comply with such notice the registration of the voter shall be cancelled and
the notice shall contain a warning to that effect.

Upon the appearance of the voter at the office of the Board, he or she
shall be examined under oath as to his or her right to be registered in the
precinct to which he or she has removed, and, upon the establishment of
such right, the new address and the number of the ward and precinct to
which the voter has removed shall be entered upon the original and dupli-
cate cards.

In case of removal to another precinct within the city, after such removal
has been noted on the registration cards, the original registration cards
