Real. ESTATE. COLLECTIONS. Brookville, Penn'a, Mar. 13, 1908. C. M. Oran Neal, Brookville, Penn'a, Dear Sirs: We have prepared the deed for the land owned by your father, and the same is in proper form and ready for execution. As three of the heirs reside in New York City, we have made but one acknowledgment for them, and wish them all to join in this. They can do this by leaving the deed before some Notary Public and calling there at such time as they may fix. It will be necessary for this deed to he taken to the Clerk of one of the Courts of New York City, and have him attach thereto a certificate to the effect that the Notary who took the acknowledgment, had power to take acknowledgments, was duly commissioned, and that the acknowledgment is in the officers proper handwriting, This is necessary before the deed can he recorded in this State. Our law requires that all deeds acknowledged outside of the State, have a certificate attached to the effect that the Notary had power to take the acknowledgment, and that the same is in his own handwriting. Our law also requires that the Notary taking the acknowledgment must state the date when his commission expires. This should be noted at the end of the acknowledgment under his signature, Yours very truly, Carmalt & Strong LCS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ THIS INDENTURE, made the - ___ day of March in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and eight (1908) between GEORGE W.
