qualified voters in the election precinct or election district in

which he was last before recorded as a qualified and registered
voter; such certificate of previous registration shall be cancelled
by the officers of registration who shall register such person anew.
Said officers of registration, when sitting at their respective May,
June, July and September sittings, and the first sitting in October,
shall register as provided in section 14, all qualified voters who shall
present themselves for registration; and in addition to said work
of registration they shall carefully revise and scrutinize the said

registries of voters so received by them from said clerks of the
several circuit courts and of the superior court of Baltimore
