Hobbs v. Walker , 60 Me. 184 ( 1872 )

Danforth, J.

The only question involved in this case is whether an officer’s deed of an equity of redemption, not recorded within three months, is void under R. S., 1857, c. 76, § 33. In Houghton v. Bartholomew, 10 Met. 138, it was held that a similar deed-was good as against a subsequent purchaser with notice. Much: more would it seem to be good against the debtor, who, as the case-finds, had the legal notice of the sale.

The Statute of Massachusetts under which that decision was-made is the same as our own. The opinion in that case is elaborate, meeting every objection raised in the agreement, and is, in our opinion sound. Fxeeptions sustained-

Appleton, C. J.; Cutting, Walton, and Dickerson* JJ.5, concurred.
