Part I: General Principles as to Legal Estates, Equitable Interests and Powers

It shall not be necessary to register a memorial of any instrument made after the commencement of this Act in any local deeds registry unless the instrument operates to transfer or create a legal estate, or to create a charge thereon by way of legal mortgage; nor shall the registration of a memorial of any instrument not required to be registered affect any priority.

Probates and letters of administration shall be treated as instruments capable of transferring a legal estate to personal representatives.

Memorials of all instruments capable of transferring or creating a legal estate or charge by way of legal mortgage, may, when so operating, be registered.
