registered, and such Entries are required to be conceived in
'proper Words for that Purpose, and to be signed by the Parties
'making such Transfers, or (if such Parties be absent) by their
Attornies lawfully authorized; and it is also declared, that no
' other Method of assigning or transferring such Stocks and An-
'nuities shall be good and available in Law: And Whereas it
hath frequently happened, that Persons having Parts of such
• Stocks and Annuities standing in their Names, and residing out
of England, have become Lunatic, and the Personal Estate of
'such Persons has, according to the Laws of the Place wherein
they resided, being duly vested in Curators or other Persons ap-
pointed for the Management thereof: And Whereas it is proper
'that the Dividends upon such Stocks and Annuities should be
paid to such Curators and other Persons as aforesaid; and it is
also sometimes proper and expedient that the Capital of such
'Stocks or Annuities, or some Part thereof, should be transferred;
but by the Laws in being no such Payment or Transfer can be
made, whereby great Inconvenience have arisen: For Remedy
whereof, be it enacted by The King's Most Excellent Majesty, by
and with the Advice and Consent of the Lords Spiritual and
Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled,
and by the Authority of the same, That from and after the passing
of this Act, in all Cases where any such Stocks or Annuities trans-
