 therefore, in order to deal safely with the interest, 

 be necessary that the certificate should be produced 

 and handed over to a purchaser or mortgagee, or 

 entered on the register as surrendered. 



In the subsequent chapters will be found a short 

 examination of the two modern Registration Acts.
