lands In township "a. This was n test case
to determine the constitutionality Of the laws Of
this State regulating the sale oflands OF non.resi-

the time for commencing actions or taking pro-

Irregularities or to recover possession Of such
lands.
Turner claimed on this appeal that the tax

tho Federal Constitution, in that it deprives
persons OF property without due process OF law.
The title TO the lands In question became vested
in the State at the tax sale of 1877, the original
owners not applying for redemption within the
two years allowed by law. The State Fisheries,
Game. and Forest Commission obtained judg.
ment against Turner for cutting logs on this
property in 1855 and 1886.
In answer to the action Turner, who had se-
cured a conveyance. of the land from the orig
the timber, that the State never really owned
the lands, and that the tax sale under which tho
state acquired title thereto was illegal and de-
~fectIve. Turner sought to establish his conten.
