(b) If such publication shall not be made within two months from the filing of such certificate and affidavit, the partnership shall be deemed general.

(c) Affidavits of the publication of such notice by the printers, publishers, or editors of the newspapers in which the same shall be published may be filed in the office of the clerk of the superior court in which the certificate has been filed and shall be evidence of the facts therein contained.
