COLONIAL STOCK ACT 1877 - SECT 4

4. Colonial stock to which this Act applies, while inscribed in a register
kept in the United Kingdom, shall be transferred as follows:

(1)The transfer shall be made only in the register, and shall be signed by the
transferoror, if he is absent, by his attorney thereunto lawfully authorised
by some writing executed under his hand and seal and attested:

(2)The transferee may, if he thinks fit, underwrite his acceptance of the
transfer:

(3)The executors or administrators of a deceased stockholder shall alone be
recognised by the registrar as having any title to the stock or any dividend
thereon:

(4)The person becoming entitled to any stock or dividend thereon in
consequence of the death, bankruptcy or marriage of the stockholder, or of any
devolution in law from the stockholder, or otherwise than by transfer of the
stock, shall produce such evidence of his title as may be reasonably required
by the registrar, but the person so becoming entitled to any stock may
transfer such stock to another person without being registered himself.
