It shall be competent to any heir of entail, trustee, or other person interested in any entail to apply to the Court of Session for warrant to register such entail in the books of council and session for preservation, as well as in the register of entails for publication, where not previously so registered; and it shall be lawful for the Court, under such application, to cause such registration to be made at the expense of the applicant, or the heir of entail in possession, as the Court shall direct, and, with a view to such registration, to order production of such entail, or grant diligence for its recovery.
