Qualification.—The board has power to issue certificates to all who furnish satisfactory proof of having received degrees or licenses from a chartered medical college in good and legal standing, and pass examinations before said board (ib., s. 2).
Graduates of respectable medical colleges at the time of the passage of the act engaged in actual practice in the Territory shall be licensed on presenting their degree to the board, and producing satisfactory evidence of identity (ib., s. 4).
Every person holding a certificate from said board must have it recorded in the office of the recorder of the county in which he resides within three months from its date, and the date of record must be indorsed thereon. Until the certificate is recorded, the holder shall not exercise any of the privileges conferred. A person removing to another county to practise must record his certificate in like manner in the county to which he removes (ib., s. 5).
