The Court, without hearing Talcott, in reply, were clear that the statute was merely directory ; that the filing of a certificate was not a condition precedent to the giving of the deed, and passing the title; and that the sheriff’s omission should not prejudice the purchaser. Judgment for the plaintiff.

UpLaw has not yet analyzed Jackson ex dem. Hooker v. Young. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
