AN INTERESTING CASE.
More About Murplty et al., Trustees, vs.
Mayor, etc., of savannah.
Savannah, January 7,188'.
Editor Savannah Daily Times : In
your issue of the Inst., the following ap
pears :
“An InterestinoDecision —The following
case, which explains Itself, was decided in
the Supreme Court at Atlanta last week, and
is of public interest to the Savannah public :
Murphy, trustee, et. a!., vs. Mayor, etc., of
Savannah. Equity from Chatham.
These were the introductory remarks to the
head notes of the decision as published in
your valuable paper. Belie ving that some
facts in reference to the cause that
brought about this decision is
of great public Interest, and with
no desire to make the slightest allusion to the
misfortunes brought upon myself and child
ren through complications over which we
have had no more control than if we were
not interested In the matters at issue. It Is
held by the corporation of this city that the
property of my minor children was sold for
non-payment of ground rent and taxes.
Whether that be so or not is a question I do
not care to discuss here; indeed, upon that
phase of the case I have already and quite
frequently spoken freely. My purpose now is
to show how the sale was made a.id how it
should have been conducted, and these facts 1
believe to lie of great public importance to
every owner of real property in this city. It
is claimed that a re entry was made in Octo
ber, 1880, and a sale consummated in June,
1831, eight months after. This lapse of time
would of itself throw a cloud on the sale, but
whether such re-entry took place or not is or
little consequence now- aud hence no mattes
for attention ; but tuat the property wat
desposed of there can be no doubt, and in that
all interest centers, nreparatory to showing
how the sale should nave been made and
conducted it is necessary to draw attention
to the fact, that some seventy years «• o,
when a totally different state of things regu
lated the affairs of this city from that which
now prevails, and which necessitated the
sale of city domain on terms mutually ad
vantageous to purchasers of Ground rent lo
and the corporation of this city. Certain
laws were then enacted regulating these sales,
and under which this particular property was
sold. The corporation was not then very
powerful, nor is it now so eminently respecta
ble or prosperous, that it should attempt to
disregard with immunity, the just claims of
individuals who .j come powerless to pro
tect their rights. It would appear that a due
regard for public opinion would regulate the
conduct of persons occupying positions of
honor and trust and that methods shofild
not be resorted m having no justice or equity
to sustain them, and in inis connection, 1 a k,
can anyone imagine why less importance
should attach to ground rent titles than
would attach to titles of any other chara
tei|? An explanation as to any difference ‘n
their binding force would be difficult to
make so that it will appear incomprehensi
ble that persons in authority over the affairs
of this city would conceive the idea of mak
ing any change and which could not but be
known to be from the intent of the orig
inal contract made.
HOW THE SALE SHOULD BE MADE.
ORDINANCES AS AMENDED.
(Ordinance Dec. 1816.)
1. No sale of lots or other property by virtue
of any ordinance for the collection of rents,
taxes or assessments shall take place but on
the first Tuesday of each month, at the Court
Housse in this city.
2. The Marshal, before selling any lots or
property in arrears for rent, taxes or assess
ments, shall advertise the ,-aine for at least
thirty days, and state (if real estate) the num
ber of tything, ward, square and street of the
said lot or lots, and also the name or names
of the owner or owners of the said lot
or lots, as may appear on the books
of the Treasurer from the last person who
paid the rent, taxes or assessments, and in all
cases the property so advertised shall be fully
described.
3. The sale of real estate advertised for rent,
taxes or assessments due to the city shall be
made by the Marshal's offering in the most
public and audible manner the described
premises for lease lor one year, and if no bid
be given therefor, to offer the same publicly
and audibly lor two years, and in the case of
no hid. then in proceed until he offers the
prom is-, s for lea-e for ton years, and if no bid
be given for a lease of ten years he shall then
proceed to offer the same in fee (mark the
language, the italics are mine), subject to the
same conditions of the ordinances under
which the premises are held, and the said ;
Marshal :> hereby authorized to execute a
lease or leases, or deed in fee simple for the i
premises sold under this article. (Mark
again th< language) how clearly it com
mands that statutory directions be com
plied with in respect to description of
property, tything, ward, square and street
and upon the sale being made that a lease or
leases, or deed in fee simple, be made in this
language, there is no ambiguity, and if there
was doubt, the benefit should not be in favor
of the city, hut always in favor of the public.
4. All property advertised under
this article shall be placed
in one column of papers in which the same
are advert ised, headed City Marshal’s Sale,
and that in no instance sis possible) the adver
tisements be scattered in such paper. (The
r< . dor will readily understand the force and
meaning of this command as to the adver
tisement, that it might be for thirty days in
a conspicuous part of tl*<‘ oaper, and under
no circumstances, if possible, to be changed
about in such papers.)
5. AU sales of real estate made by the Mar
shal, or sold under any oidinance of this city,
shall be superintended by a special commit

attend such sales and direct the Marshal or
officer selling as circumstances may require.
*6. In all notices given by the Marshal for
Jie re-entry of lots, the name or names of the
owner or owners, or of the person or persons
who last paid rent,shall be inserted (with a
full description of said lots) in the advertise
ment.
It is scarcely necessary to call attention to
thesej clearly defined statuot y j directions
repealed in this article, and which are fully
set forth in article two. all intended for the
protection of the citizen in the exercise of
property .lights.
The public will be interested in learning
how I lies' mandatory instructions have
been complied will/in the alleged sale of my
children’s property, from the following state
ment of facts:
MARSHAL'S SALE RE ENTERED PROPERTY.
Under authority of an ordinance passed in
Council April 13th. 1881, and the resolution
published herewith. I will offer at public
outcry, in front of the Court House door, in
the county of Chatham, on the first Tut day.
being tin ;;d day of May next, between the
legal hours of sale, the (-astern and western
halves of lot n umber (55) fifty-five, Brown
Ward, and the improvements thereon. bald
property having been re-entered by the
Mayor and Aidermen of the City of Savan- ;
nah for non-payment of ground rent. This !
property is now offered for sale in fee simple, i
Terms cash, purchaser paying for paper. .
L. L. Goodwin,
City Marshal, j
Here, then, is an extensive and valuable
property of three minor children, the |
young- t not three years old, ottered for sale ■
without a single compliance with the law I
governing in such cases and with an utter
disrc -ard of 1 be.ordinances of the city; even |
the published manner in which it was to be I
disposed of set aside on the day of sale and
violated, for, although advertised to be sold I
in halves, it was put up in bulk, and was i
about to be dosed out to the parties now in 1
possession for less than it brought one I
month later under still more iniquitous con- 1
ditions, and which was the result of the I
propei <y being bid in the name of a disinter- I
ested citizen to avoid its confiscation for the ■
time being.
I have more th-n once proven that a re-1
entry was not made upon the property. But, '
let it be admitted for the time being, but for a
purpose only, that the city did legally and '
honestly re-enter upon the property and ac
cording to its pet hobby, acquired absolute
dominion over it, I ask, Did it have the right
to change the character of the original title in
making said sale? Surely not any more than
it would to change the character of a fee sim
ple title to the ground rent system for non
payment of taxes. Even if absolute owner
ship vested in the corporat ion it would be un
just to the taxpayers, who, under such a per
nicious doctrine, should be the beneficiaries
of a proper sale to alter the character of the
original contract, and no court of law or
equity of any character should ever sustain
such a bold innovation on the rights of any
citizen. The conditions under which the
property was finally disposed of must be
carefully read to be understood. They are as
follows:
THE SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 18S5.
CITY marshal’s sale.
City Marshal’s Office, 1
Savannah, Ga., June Ist, 1881. j
Under authority of an ordinance passed in
Council May loth. 1881, and the resolution
published herewith, I will offer at public out
cry, In front of the Court House door, in the
county of Chatham, on the first Tuesday,
being tlie seventh day of June next, between
the legal hours of sale, the eastern aud west
ern halves of lot number fifty-five (55), Brown
ward, and Improvements thereon, said prop
erty navlng been re-entered by the Mayor
and Aldermen of the city of Savannah for
the non-payment of ground rent. This prop
erty, with improvements, consisting of two
first-class dwelling houses, Is now offered tor
sale in fee simple. Terms, cash. Purchaser
depositing 82,500 in cash In the hands of the
Marshal upon the property being knocked
down to him or them, and if said amount be
not so deposited, the said property shall be
at once resold. The Mayor and Aidermen
■ reserve the right to reject any bid made at
said sale. Purchaser paying for all papers.
L. L. Goodwin,
City Marshal.
At first glance it will be understood that a
special ordinance was created to meet the
circumstances of this case on May the->tn,
1881, without even repealing existing ordi
’ nances, and after the eastern half lot with its
valuable improvements was transferred, the
' western half was off ered and disposed of lor
82 000 less than its true value, and that when
the city had in its possession $4,6C0 m.-rc than
was due on the entire property, I desire to
call the attention of ad fair-minded and
thoughtful citizens to the description given
’ of the property, the height, front or depth of
the buildings, the nature of the improve
ments not even referred to,- the valuable
brick outbuildings in no way alluded to. The
names of Hie streets, ward or tything not
even touched upon, and all thi« in the verv
teeth of the law and the well-known ordi
nances ot the city. Public safety demands
the redress of this grievance. This act of con
fiscation that would not be recognized by any
nation of the earth, is too broad and sweep-
• ingto be tolerated in a civilized community.
A different condition of things should and
must prevail, for the principles of natural
justice and right have been shamefully disrt
garded, and in support of* the views I have
tried to knit together in a hasty and imp -
feet manner, I regard the following as of im
portance in showing that all authorities agree
that the law regulating the sale of property
under tax execution must be followed and to
the sti ict letter of the conditions under which
it is held:
! The Supreme Court of a ne ghborlng State,
j speaking on the subject, said: The power of
an officer making tax sale is purely statu
tory. A statutory power must be exercised
according to statutory directions. In no class
of cases has this rule been more strictly in
sisted upon than in case of tax sales. A sub-
• stantial and strict compliance with the pro
‘ visions of the law preparatory to and autnor-
izing t he saie is a condition of the power and
. essential io its rightful exercise. Doubtless
certain provisions of the revenue law are
’ merely directory, but when the reou’sitions
pre:/ ibed are intended for the protection of
1 the c. Jzen and to prevent a sacrifice of his
properly, such as if disregarded would in
-1 furiously affect his rights, they are to be
• treated as mandatory, they must be lollow
' ed or the acts done will be invalid. Every
’ tot ice which the statutes provides for the
’ benefit and protection of the tax-payer must
be given with scrupulous observance of all
‘ its requisites. It cannot be shortened
a single day, and if required to be given
within a certain time or in any prescribed
mode it must be so given. It is a settled rule
in the interpretation of revenue laws that in
case of doubt or ambiquity the construction
. must be in favor of the public. This decision,
so clear on the important subject upon which
' it treats, I regard with satisfaction, and re
gret that a want of space procludes the possi
bility of presenting it in its entirety. The
• court below held the tax sale void because the
. sale was made on the 17th of April,whereas it
should have been made after the 20th, but
. held the action of the plaintiff barred by the
. limit itiou fixed by; the statute,
; wmeh was five years. The court 01
last resort, in dealing with that view of the
, case,held as follows: “It is difficult to see how
, the statute of limitation can avail a defend
[ aut holding a void deed. There was nothing
• for tiie stat ute to operate upon, nothing for it
to run in favor of or against, nothing to set it
in motion. The limitation was intended to
. apply to cases where the provisions of the law
had been complied with, not to void proceed
ings in violation of law.” Thus it is clear, be
yond the shadow of a doubt, that the pre
scribed mode of sale cannot be altered in the
• smallest particular, and even doubts, if they
, exist, mustbe in favor of the public. If it
appear clear that the facts put forward arc
correct, it will not be denied that every con
‘ dition under which the sale of my children's
I properly should have been made was
disregarded. Thirty days notice in a public
i gazette of the city and in. one column should
I have been given, “What are the startling
i facts? Only five days notice were given, a
i change and reduction of twenty-five days
and a depositors2,soo required from the pur
chaser, of each house this condition enforced
• after t he*sale of the first house for an amount
largely in excess of the sum due on the entire
property had been received by the authori
ties of the city.’' If the recital of facts set
' forth be regarded as correct, a reflecting pub
lic will look upon such conduct as bewilder
ing and revolutionary, and I ask. can any
one for a moment, cuppose that che.se pro
ceedings were not known to be in violation
. of law and justice, and hence the constant re
sort to legal methods that in time was be-
I lieved would wear me out and through which
, I would sicken and die, and thus
end forever, my troubles with the city, and
; the rights of my children as well. Outside of
the hardships of my own position I have
constantly before my mind’s eye the deplor
able condition of my children which makes
me feel so bitterly the position in which I
have been placed for four years. To those
who know me. I need not say how precario is
. was the condition of my health when the
, tearful mistake from which I have .suffered so
. much took place, and, still worse, a tamily
bereavement so crushing that it threatened
. me with the worst consequences that could
happen. In fact, at the time it was well
known I was moving about in an aimless sort
of way, la menting my unfortunate lot, utterly
unfitted to act wisely or well in any matter
requiring health of body and activity of
, mind. What 1 have suffered would have
crushed and crazed most men, and yet the
i same condition ot things are still continued
. I and in the face of a public opinion thau
favors doing me j ustice. Very respectfully,
Chris. Murphy.

fashionable shades at prices that would actually seem absurd. Look ! seeing is believing:
