Messrs. Jeffords & Smoyer,
Clearwater, Florida.
Opinion ot Title to Ei of SEt, Section 10-29-15,
Pinellas county, Florida.
We have examined Abstract No. 100 made by the
Abstract of Title Company of Tampa trom the Government
,_t.QJ~.~lQJ-L9.Q5,_,_~..rul,Abstract NQ_. 14,52,5maoeby the
Guaranty Title & Trust Company from June 16, 1905 to
February 16, 1920, purporting to retlect the title to
the above described premises, and trom such examination
we are of the opinion that the FEE SIMPLE TITLE to the
said premises is in
--'-.~
JAMES N.,HARDAGE and R. L. MCMULLEN
Subject, however, to:
FIRST: The title to the NEt o! the SEt (being the
Nt or approximately that section ot the premises north
o! the Railroad) was in Jacob A. Garrard in 1858. In
1878 it was sold by a commissioner under a petition
ot the Sherit! ot Hernando County as ex officio admin-
istrator de bonis non of Garrard. The records in
Hillsborough County do not show that the Court either
got or found that they had jurisdiction. We have not
examined the records ot Hernando County because we
understand that t'Aew'O&urt House was, burned in '79""
destroying all records prior to that date. The com-
missioner appointed by the Court upon the approval of
his report by the Court issued a dead to v. w. Olds.
In 1881 V. W. Olds acquired a Tax Deed for taxes for
the year 1875 and 1876 covering this same property.
We have consulted with John U. Bird, City attorney
for Clearwater, and he has indicated that the City
Council might accept the title in this case. We
cannot, however, approve it as an actual merchantable
title, although it might be acceptable to many people
and the chances are that one holding possession under
it would never be disturbed in such possession.
SECOND: There is a sixty foot right of way of the
Tampa and Gult Coast Railroad Company extending approx-

Messrs. Jeffords and Smoyer,
Cleanvater, Florida.
Gentlemen:-
We enclose herewith our opinion of title to the
proposed golf tract which explains itself.
,_>!r"
We could not recommend the accevtanceof this title
by a private owner as good and if the heirs of Garrard
were to show up even after these more than forty years
they could make some nasty trouble.
If Hardage and McMullen want their money we would
suggest that you could pay them for the halt, the title
to which is goo~and deposit the other half in escrow
to be paid them when the title had been perfected.
We believe it would be better to deposit the deed
or a contract to the city to be delivered upon its
. ac c-eptance '"of'1::he'-pr'o'I>erty" arid a v()ld~T6ur glvlriga'~-" ~
Warranty Deed to the NEt of the SEt of section ten.
