CAUTIO N A N D COMMON SEN SE
You either own laod now or expect to some day, or at least
you may loan money on real estate security.
If you will take the pains in advance to be assured of the title
before you lay out your good money, you will save a peck of
trouble.
The trouble that often grows out of a neglected title litigation
expense, annoyauce, delays-is out of all proportion to the caution
and common sense which might have prevented the trouble it ex­
ercised in time.
And the proper time for caution and common sense in land
transactions is before the deal is closed.
Demand an abstract.
Many of the largest deals in Clackamas county land in the
last sixteen years have been closed by the use of our abstracts.
