LAWS OF MARYLAND.
said deed of trust, did not know that the said
Robert Craig had any interest in or claim to any
real estate in the city of Baltimore, and for that
reason did not cause the said deed of trust to be
recorded among the land records of Baltimore
city; and whereas, at the time of the execution of
the said deed of trust, the said Robert Craig
claimed, with others, a leasehold interest on a
house and lot of ground in Baltimore city, which
was in litigation at the time of the execution of
the said deed of trust, and which has since been
determined in favor of said claimants; and where-
as, since the determination of said suit, said claim-
ants sold said leasehold interest to Philip Bandel,
who has fully paid for the same, the interest of
said Moore therein being three hundred dollars,
and has executed to him a deed thereof; but be-
cause that said deed of trust was not recorded
among the land records of Baltimore city, the title
of said Bandel to said house and lot is now defec-
tive; and whereas, the said deed of trust was de-
stroyed by fire that took place in the office of the
Clerk of the Circuit Court for Baltimore county;
Therefore,
