Section 6 Commissioners to certify the amount of consideration money for redemption.C1

In every case in which a rent-charge is redeemable under the provisions of this Act, the commissioners shall, upon the request of the owners of land chargeable with such rent-charge or any of them, certify under the hands and seal of the commissioners the sum of money in consideration of which such rent-charge may be redeemed; and when it shall appear to the commissioners that payment or tender of such consideration money has been duly made, it shall be lawful for the commissioners to certify that such rent-charge has been redeemed under the provisions of this Act, and such certificate shall be final and conclusive: Provided that if any consideration money shall be paid for the redemption of a rent-charge to a person not entitled under the provisions of this Act to receive the same, the land which was charged with such rent-charge before the redemption thereof shall be charged in equity with the payment of such consideration money to the person rightfully entitled thereto as if the same were purchase money for such land remaining unpaid; but the same remedies may be had against the person who shall have wrongfully received such money as purchasers are entitled to by the rules of law and equity.
