32. The owner of any recorded estate may at any time by a requisition under his hand, and with the consent of all persons who may appear to be interested as having charges or otherwise, and whose consent shall be deemed necessary, require the record to be closed; and on such requisition and consent being examined, and found to be sufficient, a memorial of the closing of the record shall be prepared, specifying the ownership and full description of the lands, which memorial shall be signed by the officer and by the said owner, and shall be forthwith handed to the registrar of the registry of deeds in Ireland; and such registrar is hereby authorized and directed to file such memorial, when duly verified, in the same way as memorials of deeds, and shall receive such fees thereon as now chargeable for memorials of deeds, and the said registrar shall duly enter in the registry the name of the said owner, and the description of the lands, and shall make the usual return on any requisition, as with regard to memorials of deeds. Such memorial, when registered, shall be conclusive evidence of the several matters therein contained. After the registration of such memorial the record shall be deemed to be closed as to such estate, but shall for all purposes be deemed to have conferred an indefeasible title upon the person last therein described as owner (subject as therein, and as in this Act, is excepted).
