That His Skull Was Fractured.

by many because they were so
hampered In dealing with it. Many
mortgagees, when they have at
tempted to collect their loans, have
found out that their security was
worthless, because of prior liens or
defective title. A Title company in
issuing its policy to the mortgagee
assumes all risks. If there has been
any mistakes, the loss does not fall
