(ii) by sending it in a prepaid registered letter addressed to such person at the address at which he ordinarily resides,
|
|

(b) where such notice is addressed to a person by his name but such person is absent or abroad or his address is unknown and cannot be ascertained by reasonable inquiry, it may be given either—
|
|
| |
(i) by delivering it to an agent of such person, or
|
|
| |
(ii) by sending it in a prepaid registered letter addressed to an agent of such person at the address where such agent ordinarily resides, and
|
|
| |
(c) where such notice is not addressed to such person by his name or where, such person being absent or abroad or his address being unknown and not being ascertainable by reasonable inquiry, no agent of such person is known, such notice may be given by delivering it at the hereditament to which it relates to some person over the age of sixteen years resident or employed in such hereditament or by posting it on or near such hereditament.
