(1) No action shall be brought under or by virtue of an adverse, interfering entry, survey

or patent to recover the title or possession of land from an occupant if he , or the

person under whom he claims, has a connected title thereto in law or equity,

deducible of record from the Commonwealth, and has an actual occupancy of it by

settlement thereon, under such title, for seven (7) years before the commencement

of the a ction. This possession of land shall bar the right of entry into it by any

person, under an adverse title or claim, and sufficient possession to bar the right to

recover it shall vest the title in the occupant or his vendee.

(2) The provisions of subsection (1) of this section shall not apply to a person who is an

infant, of unsound mind or out of the United States in the employment of the United

States or of this state at the time the cause of action accrued, until seven (7) years

after the removal of such disability. The disability of one (1) of several claimants

shall save only his own right, and not that of another.
