Bill Title: Amends the Conveyances Act. In a provision requiring deeds, mortgages, powers of attorney, and other instruments relating to or affecting the title to real estate to be recorded, adds language requiring the instruments to be recorded in the recorder's office in the county in which the real estate is situated.
