Its presence on the record would be likely to have the effect to deter from the purchase and impair the market value of the land; it is useless in the hands of the holder, except ■ as a means of annoyance and extortion, and it seems a fit case for the interposition of the power of a court of chancery to deprive the instrument of its means of mischief by its cancellation.””
