Where the place of deposit of the copy of a confirmed instrument of apportionment which by the Tithe M1Act, 1836, is directed to be deposited with the incumbent and church or chapel wardens for the time being, or such other fit person as the commissioners shall approve, shall be alleged to be inconvenient to the majority of the persons interested therein, or otherwise inconvenient or unsafe, it shall be lawful for any person interested in the lands or rent-charge to which such apportionment shall relate to apply to the court of general quarter sessions of the peace for the county, riding, division, or place in which such place of deposit shall be situate for an order for the deposit of such copy in some more convenient or secure custody or place, and fourteen days notice in writing of every such application shall be given to the persons in whose custody such copy shall at the time of such application be deposited; and it shall be lawful for the court at the quarter session for which such notice shall be given to hear and determine such application in a summary way, or they may, if they think fit, adjourn it to the following session; and upon the hearing of such application, the court may, if they think fit, order such copy to be removed from the custody of the persons with whom the same shall have been deposited, and to be deposited with such other persons or in such other custody as the court having reference to the security and due preservation of such copy, and to the convenience of the parties interested therein, may think fit, and may make such order concerning the notice to be given of such removal and deposit, and concerning the costs of such application, or of any opposition thereto, as they may think reasonable.
