The suit of Sallie l.. Walker against

hled recently in the equity court Of
Montgomery county, in which the COM
plhinant set up an old ninety-nine-
year lease to premises now occupied
by her within the limits Of the Wash
ington Grove Association, and by vir-
tue OF an act of the Maryland legis-
lature permitting the redemption of
such leases by Il fee simple deed de-
mand1ng that the association give her
fee simple deed in lieu of this nine
ty-nine-year lease, has been decided
by Judge Edward c. Peter In favor of
the Washington Grove Association
The complainant. like all other mem
bers OF the association. holds her lot
by stock bought in the association
which she located on the piece OF land
which she desired to occupy Under
this arrangement with the association
no one can hold a fee simple title to
any OF the property, thus enabling the
association to exist AS an organiza-
ton for the benefit and control of
the town of Washington Grove.
The association had its inception in
group of people formerly interested
IN holding camp meetings and other
religious movements in that locality
but has since become quite a summer
resort for the residents of Washing
ton. The desire, however, of the COM
pialnant and some others in the COM
munity Is to throw aside the restric-
| ttons of the Washington Grove Asso-
ciation. In its desire to control the
community and the occupants Of land,
this suit means much to the associa
tions and it's members, 1t ts declared,
for II decides that the stock contract
by which the property owner holds
title IL superior to any other dead or
llease to the land.
