gany county, that be bad surveyed and hid out for him, un-
|
|
|
der a special warrant, 52 3/4 acres ofland, lying in Allegany
|
|
|
county, and fully compounded, and obtained a patent for
|
|
|
the same; And whereas, it is further represented that said
|
|
|
land was heretofore granted by the State to a certain Edward
|
|
|
Berry, a soldier of the revolution; who, it is stated, died in-
|
|
|
testate, and without heirs; and that said land became es-
|
|
|
cheated to the State, and could therefore only be affected
|
|
|
by an escheat warrant, but as said Savage has paid to the
|
|
|
treasurer the composition therefor, it would be unjust in the
|
|
|
State again to exact it — Therefore,
|
|
|
Resolved by the General Assembly of Maryland, That the

patent heretofore granted out of the western shore land of-

returned to the land office, under an escheat warrant.
