RESOLVED, That the chancellor be and he is hereby

late of Anne-Arundel county, deceased, on the eighteenth day of
January, one thousand seven hundred and ninety-nine, as stated
in the petition of Rachel Shipley, his widow and administratrix,
and if, upon said examination of all the circumstances, the chancellor
shall be of opinion, that the said warrant has not been duly
executed, and the certificate thereon duly received in the land office,
owing to a collusion between the counter petitioner, William
Alexander, or John Guyer, in whose name the warrants, (the benefit
of which is claimed by the said Alexander,) were taken out,
or any other person or persons whatever who are now or have been
interested in both or either of the said warrants, or the surveys
made thereon, or of any person on behalf of them, or any of them,
and of the principal surveyor of Anne-Arundel county, that in
such case he shall direct the register of the land office to receive
into
his said office the certificate aforesaid, which has been hitherto
presented
to the said register on the seventh day of February last, and,
(if the same shall be received,) the chancellor shall then give to
said certificate all the force, validity and effect, which it would
have
been entitled to, if the surveyor of Anne-Arundel county had regularly
discharged his duty, touching the warrant so as aforesaid
issued to the said Talbot Shipley, and the certificate for the same. |
