Where a dishonoured bill or note is authorised or required to be protested, and the services of a notary cannot be obtained at the place where the bill is dishonoured, any householder or substantial resident of the place may, in the presence of two witnesses, give a certificate, signed by them, attesting the dishonour of the bill, and the certificate shall, in all respects, operate as if it were a formal protest of the bill.
The form given in the Schedule may be used with necessary modifications, and if used shall be sufficient.
