So the county obtained its title to this
land through the gift and influence of tin
people of Lafayette.—Register, May 27.
This means when Ju Ige Ramsey wu-
county Judge, every lot in I he town of
Lafayette, ».I purchased by Yamhill
county, at guardians sale, in ordertoex-
tinguish the title of the heirs at law ol
Joel l'eikins deceased. The county not
ouiy paid for the land then, but it paid
for it when it obtained its patent fiom
the United States. And it used the pub
lic money to do so too. Judge Ramsey,
very properly took steps toquiet the title
to those lots, and now that title is ns
good as any. This title will remain
good, and the present owners will still
have the lota and a good title even if the
court house should he located at Dayton
McMinnville, or elsewhere than Lafay
ette.
