Passed March
7, 1843.

WHEREAS it is represented to this General Assembly,
that the stockholders of the Planters Bank of Prince Geor-
ge's county have for the purpose of winding up the said in-
stitution with as little inconvenience to the public as possi-
ble, divided among themselves, the debts due to the said
bank, having first paid all the liabilities of the said bank, and

received an assignment of debts in payment of their stock,
that it may be doubtful whether the said assignees would
have power to collect their said debts, in the name of the
said bank, and doubts being also entertained by the purcha-
sers of real estate from said bank as to the legal sufficiency
of the deeds which were executed by S. Sprigg as the Pre-
sident of said Bank, and it appearing right to this General
Assembly, that all doubts in regard thereto should be put to
rest — therefore,
