ALLEIN VS. HUTTON. 537 which, as contended, has already been patented to Templeman and Stewart, in the tract called "Harrison." But upon a care- ful examination of the certificate of "Harrison," I do not find that it embraces Lot No. 1168, and, therefore, the objection being founded upon a mistake in point of fact, of course must fail. The caveat of the certificate for "Amber," which includes Lot No. 1165, is not now for hearing, and, therefore, no opinion will be expressed with regard to it. It is, thereupon, ordered that the caveats to the certificate for "Conway," be, and the same are hereby ruled good, and that those to the certificates for "Sacramento," and "Summit Point," be, and the same are hereby overruled, and that the costs in each case to be taxed by the Register, be paid by the party against whom the order is made.

Richard G. Hutton, of Anne Arundel county, by a deed of manumission, executed on the 9th of November, 1819, manu- mitted sundry negro slaves after a term of years, to wit: "George, aged twenty-five, to be free on the 1st of January, VOL.
