Syllabus

<p>SYLLABUS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Tax Deed — Description—Several Tracts. Where a tax deed covering several tracts first describes, them in full and assigns to each a number, and thereafter intelligibly refers to them respectively by number only, the omission of any further description does not render the deed voidable.</p> <p>2. - Tracts Widely Separated, or Lying in Different Districts. The rule announced in Cartwright v. Korman, 45 Kan. 515, 26 Pac. 48, that where several disconnected tracts are included in the same tax deed the expression in the granting clause “the real property last hereinbefore described” . will be interpreted as including all of them, where it follows recitals in which they áre collectively referred to as “said property,” is not affected by the circumstance that the several tracts included in the deed are widely separated and lie in different taxing districts.</p>
