AVlthont Title to Radnor Heights Property A rodhot light is on between the United States government and James E ents agenf and attorney for the hairs of Charlotte L Drain deceased Ute width and boundary of the military road where it traverses the Drain property in Alexandria County Va The War Department claims that the government owns a numbe of feet of the military road anti running over into the lots of the Drain subdivision knOws as Radnor Heights and the Quarter- master of the United States Army has written a letter to Mr Clements stating that from the survey of the government rOd air Clements had staked and was selling lots extending over on land pur- chased by the United States and request- ing him to cease encroaching on the sold government property Mr Clements on his part contends that his pOBitlsn is absolutely correct He quotes the appropriation bill for the fiscal year ended June 39 1903 in which 510 was appropriated for the purchase- of the land forming the roadway from by the deed it- self from Charlotte L Drain to Ute United States under which the govern- ment got title to the eastern half of the Military road The description In the deed gives the metes and bounds of the lot of ground conveyed and describes It as being the eastern half of the Military road begin- ning at a point in the center of the road where the center line of the road is crossed by the northern boundary line of the Fort Myer reservation and It is claimed settles indisputably the question of what the deed meant to convey to the United States by saying that the courses down the southeastern boundary of said road are to be parallel to the center line and twenty feet dis- tant which not It is asserted by any possible stretching anything except the area of the eastern onehalf of the Military road which is twenty feet wide Mr Clements contends that the map attached the deed given the govern- ment clearly sets forth the part of the road so conveyed in accordance with the description in the body of the deed as above set forth and he says that the subdivision of the Radnor Heights prop- erty was made with due respect for the established line between the Military road and the Drain property and that he has not included In the boundary any of his lots any portion of the said road whatever but on the other hand the government seeks to come over Into tho lots of this subdivision and to assert ownership to a strip thereof without a hadow of right or title thereto I CIe over beyond the e5ten boundary o the Aqueduct Bridge c anrt further contention therefrom could

MILITARY ROAD

Governments Claim to land Disputed by Drain Heirs

Lawyer Clement Contend War Dcpertinent I AVlthont Title to

Radnor Heights Property

A rodhot light is on between the UnitedStates government and James Eents agenf and attorney for the hairsof Charlotte L Drain deceased Utewidth and boundary of the military roadwhere it traverses the Drain property inAlexandria County Va

The War Department claims that thegovernment owns a numbe of feet of

the military road anti running over intothe lots of the Drain subdivision knOwsas Radnor Heights and the Quarter-master of the United States Army haswritten a letter to Mr Clements statingthat from the survey of the governmentrOd air Clements had staked and wasselling lots extending over on land pur-chased by the United States and request-ing him to cease encroaching on the soldgovernment property

Mr Clements on his part contendsthat his pOBitlsn is absolutely correctHe quotes the appropriation bill for thefiscal year ended June 39 1903 in which

510 was appropriated for the purchase-of the land forming the roadway from

by the deed it-

self from Charlotte L Drain to UteUnited States under which the govern-ment got title to the eastern half of theMilitary road

The description In the deed gives themetes and bounds of the lot of groundconveyed and describes It as being theeastern half of the Military road begin-ning at a point in the center of the roadwhere the center line of the road iscrossed by the northern boundary line ofthe Fort Myer reservation and It isclaimed settles indisputably the questionof what the deed meant to convey to theUnited States by saying that thecourses down the southeastern boundaryof said road are to be parallel to thecenter line and twenty feet dis-tant which not It isasserted by any possible stretching

anything except the area of theeastern onehalf of the Military roadwhich is twenty feet wide

Mr Clements contends that the mapattached the deed given the govern-ment clearly sets forth the part of theroad so conveyed in accordance with thedescription in the body of the deed asabove set forth and he says that thesubdivision of the Radnor Heights prop-erty was made with due respect for theestablished line between the Militaryroad and the Drain property and thathe has not included In the boundaryany of his lots any portion of the saidroad whatever but on the other handthe government seeks to come over Intotho lots of this subdivision and to assertownership to a strip thereof without a

hadow of right or title thereto
