VOTERS SICK, QUARANTINED OR UNAVOIDABLY AB- Any voter who is sick, quarantined or unavoidably absent from the County may register by executing a proper application. This application must set out the same facts that are required in an application of a voter who appears in person, and in addition must set out that he is sick, or is quarantined, or that he is, or will be unavoidably absent from the county, stating his whereabouts, on the day of registration. The application must be sworn to before an officer authorized to administer oaths and using an official seal. Two freeholders residing in the precinct, must certify that they are acquainted with the voter and that the facts stated in the application are true. Then the application must be delivered to the Board while sitting for the purpose of receiving applications by a registered voter of that precinct. At a conference of the representatives of the respective Chairmen of the Democratic, Progressive and Republican parties, it was agreed that the words "unavoidable absence" from the county as used in Section 14 of the Registration Act should be liberally construed so as to permit the registration of all voters absent from the county on registration day whether on business or pleasure, whose absence is not for the purpose of avoiding registration in person. (Sec. 38.) DUTIES OF THE BOARD NAME OF APPLICANTS TO BE WRITTEN IN REGISTRATION BOOKS. When a voter presents his application the Inspector shall take it and see if it is signed by the applicant in his own hand writing. If so signed, but not attested, any member of the Board may ask him if that is his name and require him to write his name on the back of the application. His name is then written in the registration column of both the registration books, in its regular order, and numbered, and both Clerks must endorse their initials on the back of the application, and it is numbered to correspond with the number of the registry. The Board thereupon tells the voter the number of his name and he shall retire. (Sec. 35.)
