AI Summary
This bill aims to improve the methods of recording at the registry of deeds. It amends Chapter 54 of the General Laws by adding a new section, Section 158, which outlines the requirements for the register to record all instruments in a fair and legible manner, either by handwriting or print, in continuous successive lines. The register must also note any erasures, interlineations, and the value of any stamps affixed to the documents, as well as the cancellation of such stamps. Additionally, the register is required to make duplicate copies of all books containing recorded deeds, certificates of title, and other instruments.
