And be it enacted, That whenever and as often as any trustee, nominated and appointed to any church or chapel under the provisions of this Act, shall die, or shall resign his office with the consent of his co-trustees, or shall be removed as aforesaid, the survivors or continuing trustees shall forthwith call a meeting of the subscribers to, and seat-holders in, such church or chapel, for the purpose of nominating a new trustee, and the same proceedings shall be observed in all respects as to such nomination and selection as upon the original appointment of trustees:
Provided, however, that no trustee shall be permitted to resign his office until he shall duly have accounted to the satisfaction of his co-trustees, for all sums of money at any time received by him in his said trust.
