Flue Set of Abstract Book. 1 A Chronicle reporter called at the office of J. M. Huntington & Co. this morning, and through the courtesy o Mr. Huntington was , permitted to in Lspect their system of title abstracts, which is'one of the most" "complete and reliable things of its kind ever gotten up, and is the only set of abstract books ever- made for Wasco county. These books,' three in number, were made es pecially -for ''the-' hinds' embraced in Wasco winntr. anA winll WnaoloAa R' where else. They are verv large, the leaves being 18x20 inches in size, and!" contain 2000 pages. Two of them, ire sl for all lands in the county not included in town plats, while the ether coutai mi town property. lliey are so ar ranged that tbe whole history of the title to any piece of property may be seen with a glance ; so that if a person wishes to know the condition of the title -a - - to "any piece of land in the county, whether farm or city "property, timber or mineral lands, Mr. Huntington can tell in a few minutes what it might take several hours or - a whole day to find out at the countv tlerk's office. The books are self-correcting, and will to an absolute certaintv, detect any error in description that may occur in convey ancing or recording ; and. by a system of consecutive numbering, it is possible to trace a long chain or title- through what ever channel it may come, whether by deed, power of attorney, decree of court or will, in a remarkably short'time and with perfect accuracy. These books need only to be seen to be. appreciated. The labor of writing them. up has been done entirely by Mr. .Huntington who feels a jnet pride in thetn. - . Besides- tire abstract - business,- this firm does a large "insurance f business! representing six strong firb insurance companies, with an aggregate of capital of $22,000,000, whoso reliability was well attested by the prompt manner in which all their losses by the recent fire were settled.: cillioN-ici. t; Mil ou r sitii'.
