76 - Assignment; contents, and to whom made.

 
    § 76. Assignment; contents, and to whom made. The order must designate
  one  or  more  trustees,  residents  of  the  state; and must direct the
  petitioner to execute,  to  him  or  them,  an  assignment  of  all  his
  property,  at  law or in equity, in possession, reversion, or remainder,
  excepting only so much thereof, as is exempt by law from levy and  sale,
  by  virtue  of  an  execution.  The  assignment  must be acknowledged or
  proved, and certified, in like manner as a deed to be  recorded  in  the
  county,  and must be recorded in the clerk's office of the county. Where
  it appears, from the schedule or otherwise, that real property will pass
  thereby, it must be also recorded as a deed, in the  proper  office  for
  recording deeds, of each county where the real property is situated.
