                                  AN ACT

     To quiet the title to real estate; and to enable citizens of the
        United States, and corporations authorized to hold real

        real estate which has been formerly held by or for
        corporations not authorized by law to hold the same.

     this Commonwealth, heretofore held by or for any corporation or
     corporations not having the right to own and hold the same, has
     been conveyed to any citizen of the United States or to any
     corporation authorized by the laws of this Commonwealth to hold
     the same, such citizen or corporation, grantee as aforesaid,

     to any right of escheat in this Commonwealth by reason of such
     real estate having been sold by or for a corporation not
     authorized to hold the same by the laws of this Commonwealth.
     This act shall not apply to escheat cases now in litigation.
