TAX TITLES TO UNSEATED LANDS,
Money is eo abundant that our citizens are seek
ing safe in vestments lor it in all quarters, and real
estate is especially in demand. We have had nu
merous inquiries as tothe title to ‘ ‘unseated lands’*
in Pennsylvania, acquired by tax-sales made in
conformity with the laws of the Commonwealth.
We have, therefore, had prepared the following
summary of points decided by the Supreme Court
which define very clearly the nature and value
such titles where the proceedings have been
regular:
When, unseated land, which is the subject of
taxation, is sold for taxes, the title of the rea
owner, whatever it may be, passes to the pur*
chaser, whether it be assessed in his name, in the"
name of the warrantee, or of a stranger; and
whether the person in whose name it is assessed
has or has not any t title. Strati ch vs. Shoemaker
1 Watts & Sergeant, 166. ,
A sale of unseated land for taxes, vests the title,
when regularly made, in the vendee, to thfe exclu
sion of all claimants to the land of a
Caul vs. Spring 2 Watts, 393. '
Where a piece of land is taxed, and sold for non
payment of tax, it is immaterial who was the
owner. • Collins vs. Barclay 7 Barr, 67.
A sale by the commissibners is a sale by owners,
and the purchaser is not bound to show anything
but his deed. Huston vs. Fpster l Watts, 477,
reaffirmed in Kirkpatrick vs. Mathiot 4 W. and
S., 254.
Where unseated land is sold at Treasurer’s sale,
and bought by the Commissioners, an absolute
and unqualified title is acquired after five years.
Kilpatrick vs. Mathiot, 4W. and S., 25.
The act of 1815 applies as well to sales to the
Commissioners as individuals after five years have
expired, therefore without redemption the Com
missioners hold absolutely, and it is not necessary
for them to prove that the directions ol the law
have been complied with.—Peters vs. Heasley 10
Watts, 20S.
If land is assessed, though irregularly, the sale
is good;if it is assessedby the assessor ofa different
township, the purchaser is protected.—Hubler vs.
Keiser 2 P. and W. 496.
No action can be brought for the recovery of land
sold by the Treasurer for taxes after five j ears
from the delivery of the deed, whether the proceed
ings were regular or irregular andfwhether tha
purchaser had entered or not. Parrish vs. Stevens
3S. and R. 293. modified by Sheik vs. McElroy
S, Harris 31.
A sale of unseated lands for taxes will pass the
title, though assessed in a wrong name or by a
wrong number, if otherwise designated so as to be
capable of identification, and the designation will
he sufficient, if it afford the means of identification
ana do not positively mislead the owner. Wood
side vs. Wilson 8 Casey, 52.
Replevin cannot be maintained by the former
owner against the purchaser lor timber cut beween
the time of sale and that of redemption. Crome*
lien ys. Brink fi Casey 522.
The record of the acknowledgment of a Treasu
rer’s deed for unseated land kept in the Court of
Common Pleas, when the deed itself is lost, is evi
dence of the existence of the deed. Reinboth vs.
Zerbe Run Improvement Co., 5, Casey 139;®*
A Treasurer’s Sale for taxes of a part of a tract
of land, and a conveyance of that part, designating
the quantity, but not the locality, iB good, and an
unrestricted choice of locality to the purchaser, is
a necessary incident ol the sale. Coxe vs. Blau
den, 1 Watts 533.
A Sale by the Commissioners Is irredeemable.

We bare learned not to be astonished at any
thing. Years of experience and a correspondence
extending throughout all nationalities of the ha
bitable globe have turned theories into facts and
established a basis from which we need not err.
We an not surprised at such facts as the follow,

We know the persons and circumstances, hence
feel at liberty to endorse their statements :
**Nxw Bedford, Mass., Not. 24, 1563.
Deab Sin—l have been afflicted many years with
seTfre prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet
ac d hands, and a general disordered system. Phy
sicians and medicines ftiled to relieve me While
Tisiting some friends in New York who were using
Plantation Bitters they prevailed upon me to try
them. I commenced with a small wine glassful
ar ter dinner. Pee ing better by degrees, in a few
days I was astonished to find the coldness and
cramps had entirely left me, and I could sleep the
night through, which I hare not done for years 1
feel like another being. My appetite and strength
have also greatly improved by the use of the Plan
tatien Bitters. Respectfully,
