What A Title Policy Insures Against “After the records affecring real property transactions have been carefully inspected by expert and conscientious counsel, it is quite possible that the future may still bring title defects. Such exigencies as tl. existence of undisclosed heirs, a wife of whom nobody knew except the ' concealing husband, forgeries, fraudulent discharge of liens, non-exis»^nt or unqualified notaries public, are likely to arise, ai.] have in fact arisen, after a most v.oeful and paamstaking title search. This is the zone of danger into which mere title examination cannot enter, and which calls for these safeguards which only a title insurance policy can furnish.” This statement on title insurance by the New York Title and Mortgage Company one of the country’* greatest title institutions—is worth your consideration if you own or have loaned money on property. Let the largest Title Department in Cape May County give you the protection you need.
