“(b.) That, on application to have such birth registered,
a fee of one pound shall be paid to the Registrar-
General.

“The particulars of the birth and of the nature of the evi-
dence produced shall be entered by the Registrar-General in
a separate book, which shall be kept by him for that pur-
pose. The form in which the particulars are to be registered
shall be prescribed by the Registrar-General.”
