77. At such meeting both of the registers shall again be produced, and
said board shall hear every person that appears before them to whom notice
was sent, to show cause why his name should not be erased from said reg-
ister, in the same manner provided for in case of the general registration;
and if a majority of said board shall decide that such person is not a quali-
fied voter, his name shall be erased from the registers. Evidence on either
side may be heard, and all witnesses or parties shall be sworn. If qualified
voters so noted as dead or removed are not dead or have not removed, their
names shall stand, but if any person so notified does not appear at such
session and show cause why his name should not be erased, the board shall,
during the last hour of such session, cause his name to be erased and marked
as disqualified, dead or removed, as the case may be, unless a majority of
the board are satisfied, of their own knowledge, or upon competent evidence,
that such person is entitled to have his name retained on the registry, and
under the head of "Remarks," opposite each name erased, shall be stated
the facts as to such erasure, the grounds and date of making the same, and
the evidence on which it was made. The two registers shall then be com-
pared and made to agree, where there is any difference, and such revision
of the registry by said board of registry shall their be considered closed, and
no other name can be added by said board, and a certificate of the number
of qualified voters shall then be made and signed on the registers. The
registers shall by noon of the second day thereafter be returned to the super-
visors of elections, with the alphabetical list, as required in section 27.
