AN.AJ .. YSIS OF TITLE TRACT No. 236. 243 I. Traot No. 236 is now owned by Carl sutton, and is totally embraced by state Grant No. 252 issued by the state JtQ John Gray Blount. As we have treatEt.d State G~ant Nth 252 by mesne con• veyances from the time said grant passed by the last will and testa­ment of James R. Love to his executors, the same will not be repeated in this analysis, but mny be seen by reference to the analysis of the ~· ·"" ' Sidney Nelson t:ra.ot,;beginning with paragraph 1 of said analysis, and ending with paragraph 10, page 3 of this abstract. J,3h.~ The first instrument we will consider affecting Tract No. 236 is a bond for title executed by J. R. Love to Polly Palmer bearing date of :March 301 1858; This bOnd is somewhat indefinite aa to the description, but we have been assured by the surveyOrs that the land described in said bond embraces Tract No. 236. Of course, this bond is 1rre~lar on its face, but the irregularities have been cured by an agreement and consent judgment in the case Of ll11 L .. Hen­ry et al versus w. L, Hilliard, et al. see the analysis of title of the Sidney Nelson Tract; page 3 of this abstract. The above bond is duly recorded in Raywood County, see :page ?:4 {, ot this abstract. III. The next trace that we have been able to find of Traot No. 236 is in a deed ~ John Conrad and w1te to w. A. Palmer. fbi,• :~~ deed bee.r!l date ot April 171 18831 and desoribes Tract No, 236 by 4!44 m.etes and bounds. We have been unable to find from what source .Tohn conrad derived title to this tract of land and are unable to connect the chain of title with the bond before mentioned. However, we are ot the opinion that since the present owner has held said land under color or ti.tle since the year 188'7, that this break would be immaterial. The aboV'e deed is duly recorded in Haywood County. See page & 4 7 of this abstract. IV. On August 21, 1922, w.. A. Palmer and wife, WJ.la Palmer, executed and delivered te :r. R" Morgan, trustee, a deed in trust con• veying to the said trustee t hree tracts of land. The first tract men­tioned in said deed of trust being t he land under investigation. Thia deed of trust is given to secure the sum of $6,000.00 and contains a power o:r sale authorizing t he trustee to sell -the said lands and con• vey to the :purchaser a title in fee mould default be made in the pay­ment or said indebtedness. This deed .is trust is duly recorded in Haywood County. see page 40 J of this abstract. V. On March 15, 1928, .r. R. Morgan, trustee, executed and delivered to Carl sutton a deed vonveying Tradt No •. 236. This deed ~e­cites that w. A. Palmer and wite, having exeouted to J. R. Morgan, trus­tee, a certain deed of trust, and dete.ul t having been made in the pay­ment ot the indebtedness thereby secured, that the trustee, after due advertisement as in said deed of trust proscribed and by law provided, did expose to public sale the lands therein described i:q separate tracts, when and where Carl sutton became the last and highest bidder for the tract described in said deed.
