JERSEY CRY, N. J., July IS, 1898.
Frank Stevens, ESQ.,.
Dear Sir-The sale of July &c, 1919, to
John Warmer for 400 years, affects what was
formerly lot 6S, Washington street, in block
102. Wanner assigned his interest under
this sale to John Waldron, January "a,
1858, by deed recorded in Book 28of Deeds,
page 1877. Before that, viz: April o, 1852,
Waldron acquired the fee of said lot by deed
from james Il. Bache and wife, recorded in
Book %, page rs. This tax sale therefore
merged in Waldron, who conveyed with
warranty July %. 1854, and is now no longer
a lien upon the property.
Respectfully, etc.,
