shall be kept by them and for which they shall be responsible.
In such book there shall be a space for the name of each person
registering, his name, his color, his actual place of residence
in said town, his ward, and date of registration. The Super-
visor acting as Registration Official shall have the registra-
tion book at the place and at the time designated, as above set
forth, for registration, and if upon examination of such appli-
cant both Supervisors agree that such applicant is a qualified
voter, they shall register his name1, and all persons so regis-
tered shall be entitled to vote at town elections so long as
their names appear upon such registration book.

The Supervisors of Election acting as Registration Officials
on the first of said registration days, hereinbefore provided
for, and on the first of said registration days in the year 1933
and in every second year thereafter, whenever an affidavit is
made before them by any registered voter of said town that
any name upon the books is not entitled to be thereon, shall
note said name, and shall by placing in the United States
mail addressed to said voter to 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 on the day of registration next thereafter act upon
his right to remain upon said books as a qualified voter. The
said Supervisors of Election sitting as Registration Officials
may also on said first registration day take such action with
regard to any name on their own motion. On the second of
said registration days, the said Supervisors of Election sitting
as Registration Officials shall pass upon all 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" 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 Super-
visors of Election acting as Registration Officials in refusing
to register him, or in striking off the books his name, or in
unlawfully registering some other person, shall have the right
of appeal to the Circuit Court for Kent County at any time
