The continuity of possession of real estate is not broken by a deed to a third party, not the owner, executed by the person in possession, who continues to remain in possession after the execution of his deed. His possession will be regarded as the possession of his grantee, but not that of the owner.</p> <p>2. - Transfer of Possession — Evidence. No paper evidence of a transfer of possession of land held under a claim of the first entry is necessary. Where the possession of real estate is actual, it may commence in parol, without deed or writing, and may be transferred and pass from one occupant to another by parol or bargain and sale, accompanied by delivery.</p>
