Approved March 15, 1910.

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That when any
deceased person shall have bona fide sold any land and shall have given
a written contract to the purchaser to convey the same, and the written
contract has been duly recorded in the county or corporation wherein the
land is situated, his executor or administrator may execute a deed to the
purchaser conveying such real estate as shall be specified in the said
written contract, and such deed shall convey the title as fully as if it
had been executed by the deceased obligor: provided, however, that no
deed shall be made except upon the payment of the price and a full com-
pliance with the conditions of the written contract.
