In clause (4), the word “activities” is substituted for “business” for consistency in the revised title. Clause (6) is substituted for “receive, hold, own, use, and dispose of such real estate and personal property as shall be necessary for its corporate purposes” for consistency in the revised title and to eliminate unnecessary words.

In clause (8), the words “in courts of law and equity” are omitted as unnecessary. In clause (9), the word “things” is omitted as included in “act”.
