numbered 17-46.1, as follows:
§ 17-46. The * clerk of any court in whose clerk’s office any con-
tract of sale, or sale, under the provisions of §§ 55-88 to 55-90 has been
itted to record may, when such contract of sale or sale has been on
record for at least * twenty years in such clerk’s office, * destroy all such
contracts of sale, sales and books containing the same * and no such
destruction shall affect the right of enforcement of any such contract as

Delinquent capitation tax books and personal property tax books
maintained in any clerk’s office may be destroyed by such clerk after six
years from the date on which penalty accrued on all taxes shown therein.
§ 17-46.1. The clerk of each court of record shall maintain in his
office all official receipt books showing receipt of any funds in his custody
or that of the court, all cancelled checks showing payments from any such
funds, and all statements of bank accounts in which funds of the clerk’s
office or of the court are deposited. Such books, checks and statements
shall be maintained until they have been audited by the Auditor of Public
Accounts, and for a further period of five years, in the case of receipt
books, and ten years, in the case of cancelled checks and bank statements.
Thereafter the clerk may, with the approval of the Auditor of Public
Accounts, destroy such records.
