all such bills registered in each year consecutively, according to the respective dates of their registration.

(2) On the registration of any affidavit of renewal, the like entry shall be made, with the addition of the date and number of the last previous entry relating to the same bill, and the bill of sale or copy originally filed shall be thereupon marked with the number affixed to such affidavit of renewal.

(3) The Registrar shall also keep an index of the names of the grantors of registered bills of sale with reference to entries in the register of the bills of sale given by each grantor.

(4) Such index shall be arranged in divisions corresponding with the letters of the alphabet, so that all grantors whose surnames begin with the same letter (and no others) shall be comprised in one division, but the arrangement within each such division need not be alphabetical.

21. A judge on being satisfied that the omission to register a bill of sale or an affidavit of renewal thereof within the time prescribed by this Ordinance, or the omission or mis-statement of the name, residence, or occupation of any person, was accidental or due to inadvertence, may order such omission or mis-statement to be rectified by the insertion in the register of the true name, residence, or occupation, or by extending the time for such registration, on such terms and conditions, if any, as to security, notice by advertisement or otherwise, or as to any other matter, as he thinks fit to direct.

22. Subject to and in accordance with any rules to be made under this Ordinance, the Registrar may order a memorandum of satisfaction to be written upon any registered copy of a bill of sale, on the prescribed evidence being given that the debt, if any, for which such bill of sale was made or given has been satisfied or discharged.

23. (1) Any person shall be entitled to have an office copy or extract of any registered bill of sale and affidavit of execution filed therewith, or copy thereof, and of any affidavit filed therewith, or registered affidavit of renewal, on paying for the same at the like rate as for office copies of judgments of the Supreme Court.
