REGISTRY OF DEEDS RECEIVED Dec 27.1902 AT 2.15m P.M.AND RECORDED IN BOOK 386 PAGE 242 ATTEST, Milanipull REGISTER ohg. m.m Robnts Bon Marton me 27-2-15-x-57 by permission of Roberts and his co-owners. We understand from Frank I. Brewer that Roberts and the Brewers have always from 1882 to date been taxed and paid the taxes upon the property, In view of all this it seems quite probable that 3 title by possession could be maintained. The first above momorandum, relating to a part of Lot No. 50 is based upon an examination of the title at the Registry of Doeds beginning at the data when the Trustees of the Bingham Estate conveyed the property to Stephen Higgins. We have not examined the title of the Bingham Estato with reference to this property but feel confident that the title of that estate was good at that date. Referring to the second memorandum, relating to property which is a part of Lot No. 51, we have made the memorandum largely from data in our office. We have not examinedat the Registry all the conveyances of Hale, Hodgkins, Emery, Greely, Brewer and Roberts. To go through all the conveyances of these parties, each of whom has made hundred of conveyances, would take a great deal of time and WA have not regarded it as necessary. In this paragraph WO are merely repeating what we have stated orally to Mr. F. C. Lynam, President of the Water Company. October 23, 1916.

This mortgage is discharged by quitclaim deed from John W. Conners. to William M. Roberts, owner of the equity of redemp- tion, by deed dated December 11, 1900, and recorded in Vol. 356, Page 488.. According to the above memorandum theproperty seems to be subject to the following record defects or irregularities: In 1894 lot number 50 was partitioned by the court, One-half being set off to Fountain and Serenus H. Rodick and the other half, including the property which is the subject of this memorandum, was set off to William M. Roberts, Nellie J. Brewer, D. W. Brewer, E. H. Greeley and John T. Higgins. No deed subsequent to the partition appears from D. W. Brewer and there is no deed at all from John T. Higgins. By exam- ining the momorandum it will appear that D. N. Brewer had conveyed his interest before the partition to E. H. Greeley and so far as we have been able to ascertain John I. Higgins never had any interest in the property. Just why these parties were joined in the partition we do not know. We think the effect of the partition was to give F. and S. H. Rodick one half of the property and the petitioners the other hald with- out in any way determining the title of the petitioners as be- - tween themselves, and that, therefore, the partition does not necessarily give to D. W. Brewer or John T. Higgins any in- terest in the property. We should regard it as more satis- factory to have deeds from them but do not think that this is a matter that needs to deter the company from taking title for its purposes. Another irregularity arises from the fact that whereas after the partition Mr. Greeley was the owner of a part, two- fifths of a divided half of the lot, he by his deed given in 1897 following the partition conveyed to Frank L. Brewer, Trustee, one undivided fifth of one undivided half of lot No. 50. The same language was used in this deed as in his deed given before the partition from Daniel W. Brewer. His deed was doubtless intended to convey to Frank L. Brewer all and the same title acquired from Daniel W. Brewer notwithstanding the character of that title had been changed by the partition. In the deed from Frank L. Brewer, Executor and Trustee, to William M. Roberts, of one-fifth of the locus, his wife does not join. Ord inarily the wife of & trustee is not en- titled to dower in the trust estato. In this case, however, Frank I. Brewer was trustee for the ten children of Daniel W. Brewer, including himself. In so far as he was trustee for himself, holding both the legal and equitable title, we think that his wife mey be entitled to dower. Her dower, if we are right, would only attach to one-fiftieth of the property. This interest is contingent uponnher surviving her husband and is SO small that it cannot materially affect the title.

This conveys a right of way forty feet wide across the locus. It also conveys certain wharfage rights. But the wharfage rights were subject to a condition and are apparently no longer in existance. Various mortgages appear affecting the locus but as they appear to have been released we do not deem it necessary to list them. A very important defect in this title is that when Eugone Hale et als conveyed the property to D. W. Brewer (Paragraph I of this memorandum) it does not appear that they had any title to it. The grantors had acquired the title of Sarah Gilmore through certain mesne conveyances but so far as we are able to ascertain Sarah Gilmore had no title. At the time they received their eed the property was owned by Goodwin & Severance or their grantees, subject to a mortgage to Farnsworth, Morse and Austin. Later on, in 1886, Eugene Hale et als received deeds of the Goodwin and Severance interest and in 1884 L. A. Emery received a deed from Morse and Austin, the surviving mortgagees. But this conveyance did not enure to the benefit of Brewer as his deed was a quitclaim deed and no later deed to Brewer appears from Hale et als, except a deed dated Dec. 4, 1886, recorded in Book 211, Page 328. But as this later deed was given specifically to discharge a mortgage given in 1882 we do not think that this helps the title. The record title to this lot is therefore imperfect and if the title depended only on the records it would probably not be defensible. We have made some examination, however, for the purpose of ascertaining whether title has been acquired by possession. We have talked with F. Is Brewer, No M. Roberts and G. W. New- man in reference to the possession. We learn that in 1882 when Daniel W Brewer acquired there was an old building on the property. A little later Brower and persons claim- ing under him constructed the Lake House which was maintained by them as a hotel for a number of years. This hotel was burned and soon after another building was moved on to the lot by Mr. Roberts and maintained there for some years. For a good many years this property was used in the ice business carried on by D. It. Brewer and his estate, slips and apparatus used for cutting ice being kept on the lot. Moreover, for quite a number of years camps have been maintained on the lot DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE LAFAYETTE NATIONAL PARK BAR HARBOR, MAINE OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT Dec. 26, 1922. Dear Mr. Dorr: I have just had & long talk with Mr. Brewer regarding the transaction with the Ice Company. He tells 100 that he has labored long and dit- igently with the other members of the Company but has been un- to get able to agree to all the condi tiona in the deed. He anpears to be satisfied but some of the others refuse to agree to any conditions either in the rod strip on the Lake shore or in the rod strip on the road frontage. They easy they are willing that the troe screen and foot path shall be maintained but are not willing to have it made a part of the deed. In discussing the matter, Mr. Brewer said, that he be lieved the main objecti on was due to belief that such a condition would seriously effect a future sale of the property. In 08.80 the Brewers agree, would it be satisfactory to have 8 clause in the deed substantially as follows: "Should the Brever Ice Comany its successors or tsei tha ever desire to sell or offer for Bala the roal estate DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE LAFAYETTE NATIONAL PARK Mr. O.B.D.

Dear Deasy : Mr. Roberts has agreed to sell to Mr. Dorr for whose ever account Mr. Dorr may designate his camp lot containing about thirty-five acres along the shores of the lake and his interest in the lot near the dam site. I talked with Mr. Roberts casually about the matter yesterday SO that he understands that probably the Water Company will take title. On account of the possibility of renting the camp for next, season it seems advisable that we take title 2.5 soon as possible, but perhaps not before I return next week. I will write to Mr. Dorr asking him to see Mr. Roberts SO that whatever is necessary may be done as to the title and the deeds. Mr. Dorr will I hope communicate with you in connection with the matter. I think I shall leave Bar Harbor if the day is good immediately after the polls open. Mr. lynam personally dictatea Yours very truly, the above letter, but was obliged to leave the office before it was Fred C. Lynam, ready for his signature. President.
