“"After the tax sale, the State, through its officers, continued to assess the property to the former owner, and to collect taxes from them on the property. This estopped the State from availing herself of prescription against these former owners. Delay could not run in favor of the State while she was by these acts of her officers acknowledging the title of these former owners of the property.””
