                                  AN ACT

     Authorizing county treasurers to execute and perfect deeds for
        seated lands sold for taxes by their predecessors in office.

        The General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
     hereby enacts as follows:

        Section 1.  Whenever any county treasurer who shall have made
     sale of seated lands for unpaid taxes shall die or be removed
     from office, or when the term of office of such treasurer shall
     have expired before any valid or effective deed or deeds are
     executed by him to the purchaser or purchasers, then and in
     every such case it shall be the duty of the treasurer for the
     time being to perfect such title and execute a deed or deeds to
     the purchaser or purchasers, and they are hereby empowered and
     required upon the full discharge and payment of the money or
     price for which the said lands were sold with such cost and
     charges as remain unpaid to the former treasurer to make,
     execute and acknowledge any deed or deeds and to perform and do
     all other matters and things that by the former treasurer might,
     could or ought to have been performed or done, which when done
     shall be held and adjudged as effectual in law as if the title
     had been completed by the former treasurer.
