"a Correction.

Editor Register In your issue
of yesterday there is an item re-
ferring to County Surveyors and
Civil Engineers, in which you say
they have been flying here and
there about the county with COM
pass and rod, and concluding with
the statement that, Its pretty
sure that all the land titles are not
definitely settled in this county 2
Now, sir, in this seemingly innoE
cent little statement you do gross
injustice to the people of your
County and State by your insin-
uation that our land titles are not
good. In order to remove any
false impression that, although in
advertently done, your item might
raise in the minds of strangers and
others contemplating purchasing
lands in our County, I desire to
say that in no county in the Union
is the title to its lands better sci
tied than IN Mason County It has
been more than two decades since
there has been suit in this
County affecting the title to any
tract of land. The Surveyors and
Civil Engineers who have been so
busy of late, have been engaged in
making surveys for the partition
of lands among heirs and others.
and running disputed lines be-
tween neighboring lands, and in
no instance has there been dis
pute as to the title of the land.
You can say that the title to all of
the lands in Mason County has
long since been settled.
