If a person having an unrecorded deed or other evidence of title of real estate in his possession neglects to record the same, or refuses to allow the same to be recorded, for the space of 30 days after being thereto requested in writing by a person having an interest in such estate, any justice, upon complaint thereof, may issue his warrant and cause such person to be brought before him for examination, and, if sufficient cause for such neglect or refusal is not shown, may order such deed or evidence of title to be recorded, and commit the person to jail until such order is performed and payment of costs is made.
