Before any license shall be issued for engaging in business as a huckster or peddler or itinerant merchant, such applicant shall file with the City Treasurer an instrument nominating and appointing the City Treasurer or the person performing the duties of such position, his true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with the power and authority to accept service of process for or on behalf of the applicant in respect to any matters connected with or arising out of the business transacted under the license. Such instrument shall contain recitals to the effect that the applicant for the license consents and agrees that service of any notice or process may be made upon the City Treasurer as attorney-in-fact and when so made, shall be taken and held to be valid as if personally served upon the person applying for the license under this article, according to the law of this or any other state, and waiving all claim or right of error by reason of such acknowledgement of service or manner of service. Immediately upon service of process upon the City Treasurer as herein provided, the City Treasurer shall send to the licensee at his last known address by registered mail, a copy of the process.
