CHANCERY COURT
DOCKET CLEARED
Title To Practically All Of
Town lite Con firmed
In w. A. Jett.

The Hampstead county Chan
Gerry Court, Judge James ID. Sha-
YER presiding, convened in Hope
last week and was i n session
Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
During the three days session
practically all the business con-
tinued over from the regular
term was disposed of, as well as
all new business that had accum-
ulated.
There were a number of re-
ports of land sales and deeds for
approval, combinations of title,
DEGREES of divorce and several
foreclosures of mortgage.
Among the titles confirmed was
that of W. A. Jett to the greater
part of what is known as Old Full
ton, which, while it appears on
the map as town lots, has never
been used as town property. The
town was plated some sixty or
more years ago, before the days
of railroads. and when the Iron
Mountain railroad came through
the town was built on what is
known as Smiths addition, the
lots and blocks of the old town
site being bought up by Mr.. Jett
from time to time until he had &C
quired title to nearly all of the
old town. The tract comprises
something like 700 acres and it
is cut up into a number of good
farms.
