19. At the request of the holder the officer shall at any time compare any such certificate with the record, and, if there has been no alteration, shall certify at the foot of such certificate that it contains a true statement of the entries in the record, and shall sign the same and add the date of such signature. Any alteration or omission which can be conveniently made in a certificate, or any addition thereto, so as to make the same correspond with any alteration in the record, may be made and signed by the officer, if he shall think fit. Before recording any transfer or other dealing (except a lease) the officer shall serve a notice thereof on the recorded owner in the manner directed by section sixty-four of this Act, unless such owner shall appear in person, and be identified to the satisfaction of the officer; and the officer shall also require the production of the certificate or other instrument of title equivalent thereto that may have been issued; and when such transfer or disposition has been completed, such certificate or instrument of title (if re-issued) shall be made up so as to correspond with the record. A new certificate may be granted on the delivery up of the former certificate.
