§ 402. Record in county clerk's office
A purchaser of lands, in addition to the record in the town clerk's office, may cause his deed or other conveyance with the certificate of its record in the town clerk's office to be recorded by the county clerk of the county in which such lands lie, in the book kept for the purpose of recording deeds. If the records of a town in which such deed or conveyance is recorded are destroyed, an attested copy of such deed or other conveyance from the office of such county clerk shall be of the same validity as a copy from the town clerk's office.
