Title Search
Excerpted from the Empire State Surveyor, New York Society of Professional Surveyors, November 1990
One of the best examples of how ridiculous government paperwork can be is illustrated by a recent case in Louisiana. A company president was trying to buy some land in Louisiana for a plant expansion, and he wanted to finance this new facility with a government loan.
His lawyer filled out all the necessary forms and applications and sent them appropriately. The government reviewed His application and abstract and sent the following reply:
"We received today your letter enclosing application for your client supported by abstract of title. We have observed, however, that you have not traced the title previous to 1803, and before final approval, it will be necessary that the title be traced previous to that year.
Yours truly, etc."
As a result, the lawyer sent the following letter to the government:
"Gentlemen, your letter regarding title received. I note you wish said title to be claimed back further than I have done it.
I was unaware that any educated man failed to know that Louisiana was purchased by the United States from France in 1803. The title of the land was acquired by France by right of conquest of Spain.
The land came into possession of Spain in 1492 by right of discovery by a Spanish-Portuguese sailor named Christopher Columbus, who had been granted the privilege of seeking a new route to India by Queen Isabella of Spain.
The good queen, being a pious woman and careful about title, took the precaution of securing the blessing of the Pope of Rome upon Columbus` voyage before she sold Her jewels to help him.
Now the Pope, as you know, is the emissary of Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God. And God, it is commonly accepted, made the world.
Therefore, I believe it is safe to assume that He also made that part of the United States called Louisiana, and I hope to hell you`re satisfied."
