that In Illinois the annual cost OF abstracts and

Under the old system It was necessary to make
preliminary CONTRACT of sale and then provide for
the bringing down of the abstract and It's examin-
alton by counsel. These delays frequently conf
sumed many months before the transaction COULD
be closed Under the Torrens act the transfer or
mortgage of real estate becomes merely matters

cate of search may be had to show any subsequent

brance the original instrument Is filed with the
registrar and duplicate Is issued 10 the mort

may be closed upon the same day upon which
the parties have arrived at an agreement and
money may be borrowed and secured by mort

The object of registering the title Is to establish
1t In the owner as against the whole world. This
Is practically accomplished so soon as the title Is
registered. After the expiration OF two years
from the date Of registration no person, whatever
may be his claim, may question the validity OF the
title registered. In other words the law allows
two years within which persons, who may have
had an interest and who were not notified OF the
apicaton for registration to establish the validity
OF their claim, II they fail to do 80 within that
time they are forever barred. In proceeding
properly conducted every person having any posi-
ole interest Is notified of the tendency OF the ap.
pcation hence the title Is practically established
as against the whole world so soon as 1t Is regis
tered. 1t viii be thus seen that an owner IN Oh
tanning certificate Of title secures at small ex'
pense thorough examination Of his title a az
cree confirming 1t. the protection afforded by the
Indemnity fund. and at the expiration Of two years
an absolute defence under the statute against any
person who may seek to attack his title. t&

The buyer, of COURSE assumed the risk Of all these
errors, and had his recourse perhaps against the

title should turn out to be defective. against his
grantor on the covenants Of warranty In his deed.
Forgery and fraud In the sale or mortgage OF real
estate was repeatedly accomplished BY the use OF
