XI. Duties of Solicitor.
1. The Solicitor of the Society shall peruse and examine the
title to all property from time to time offered as security, and shall prepare the mortgages and other securities to be executed by the members. Should the Solicitor be of opinion that the title to any property cannot be safely accepted by the Society, he shall if required by the Board of Directors, state the nature of his objections in writing to the Board of Directors; and the cost of investigating such insufficient title shall be borne and paid by the member proposing the security.
