(In re. Nesbitt and Potts’ Contract,53 W. R., 297, 74 L. J. R., 310, February 9, 1905.) The facts of the case are these: A piece of land subject to restrictive covenants contained in deed of 1872, restraining the erection of buildings beyond a certain line, had, prior to 1878, passed into the occupation of a squatter, who, in 1890, obtained a possessorn title under the Statute of Limitations.The squatter sold in 1890 Co A, who in turn sold in 1901 to B. In neither of these sales had there been any investigation of title prior to 1878, consequently the existence of the restrictive covenants had not been disclosed. B, in 1903, contracted to sell to C, and while admitting the existence of the deed of 1872, argued that the squatter, or at any rate the two subsequent purchasers from him were not bound by the covenants on the ground of want of notice, and with regard to the squatter, he further argued that by the Real property Limitation Act the covenants were extinguished by lapse of time, in the same way that a statutory owner who„ loaapo iw not, liable totelly, her husband,non-residents; Abraham role, Baltimore city; Lewis Hendrickson.
