perhaps the most celebrated title case in the
law reports of Maryland-is likely to be men,
toned.
In the year 1920. when Baltimore was compara-
lively small town, Col. Kennedy Long owned
9 country place of about three acres, embracing
the land now lying within the blocks bounded By
Madison avenue, Druid Hill avenue. Mosher
street and McMechen street. Some time after
the Colonels death It became desirable to sell the
property, and in 1888 the court passed a decree
under which the land was sold for $780,
In the year 1880, Al years after the property was
sold and paid for. a suit was fled By some of the
grandchildren of Colonel Long. claiming that
they were entitled to this land, and that the sale
made In 1883 was void. After four years of ex-
pensive litigation. the Court of Appeals decided
that the claims of some Of these grandchildren
were good.
The result was that numerous people who had
bought houses or ground rents or loaned money
on mortgages within the lines of Colonel Longs
land were Obliged to pay the claims or let theil
properties be sold. The titles OF these lands had
been examined dozens of times and had been
passed BY conveyancers as satisfactory.

HoN. HART B. HoLToE, who once represen-
ted the Fifth Maryland district in Congress
and who later was the Republican nominee
for Governor, died at his fine farm, known as
the Meadows, near Woodlawn, Baltimore
county, on the 4th instant, aged 70 years. He
had been in failing health for some time. Mr..
Holton was native of Cecil county, Md, and
was a teacher in the public schools when
young man. After locating in Baltimore
county be married the only sister of Hon.
James A. Gary, who survives him. They had
no children. Mr.. Holton was best known as
q horseman and owned some of the finest
horses ever raised in Maryland. His stallion,
Orange Blossom, was an animal that made bis
owners name prominent throughout the
country. He was a great producer of speed
and many of his colts won fame on the track.
Mr.. Holton was genial gentleman and had
wide circle of friends.

well paid, his salary being s45 per annum.
Several other rich men are on the Govern
ment pay roll at nominal figures, working for
the pleasure Of 'sdoing things,' as President
Roosevelt puts it. It is pleasing to know that
some Of our rich men are scholars, and when
such Is the case they are willing to serve the
public for practically nothing. It also points
ont the fact that every one, no difference how
ever learned. rich or poor, should feel that he
owes something to the service Of the State.
