 hiS'woNrAH % Appeal from Hempstead in MITCHELL. C1o"'Fry'
 This was bill brought by Ezekiel and Burton H Kjnsworthy, for confirmation of the sale of certain tracts of land, which had been sold by the sheriff, for the taxes assessed thereon, for the years l94S to 1851 inclusive.
 Charles 8. NitcheU and wife, Eargsret 4 appeared and answered the bills. They |. urged several objections to the validity ot the sale, set up title in themselves, ant making their answer cross-bill, prayed that their title might be quieted, etc.
 On the final hearing, the court decreed the relief sought by the original bill as to all of the lands in controversy, except the s5 Il. e. l sec. 21, as to which the sale was decreed void, and the court being of opn- ion that the title thereto was in the said Charles B. Mitchell, quicted the same From this decree both parties appealed. IHe Court held:
 1st. In the assessment of taxes, the name of the owner is comparatively unIn- portant. The description of the land m such manner, as that it may be identlhed, and the non- payment of the tax, are the two considerations of the most importance in a tax sale.
 2d. When lands have been assessed to non residents who have no title to them, ln- stead of the owners, 1t does not nyalldate the assessment, and the laws does not re- quire the collector to look to the owners's or sell their personal estate for the taxes as is required in cases, where the lands aS assessed to reSidents-even though th' owners resided in tho country. But re- quires him to proceed at once agalnst M' lands as the property of nonresident Ill the manner prescribed by the statute, without making it necessary that he should first demand the taxes or resort to the per sonality. He is required to proceed against the land as assessed and not otherwise.
 3d. When a party, either by his declsr- aton or conduct induces third person to act in particular manner he will not afterwards be permitted to deny the truth of the admission, if the consequence would be injurious to such third person, or to some one claiming under him.
 So much of the decree as confirms the title of complainants to part of tho lana' In controversy, must be affirmed, and so much thereof as declares the tax sale vold as to the sl of n. e. l section must be Ts- versed-here confirming the little ot fh' complainants to this tract also, and certi- fled to the court below.
