existence of trust - Recorded written evidence. A. The appearance of the words "trustee" or "as trustee" or "agent" following the names of the grantee in any deed of conveyance of land or other property, or an interest therein, heretofore or hereafter executed, without other language showing a trust, shall not be deemed to give notice to or put on inquiry any person dealing with said property that a trust exists, or that there are other beneficiaries of said conveyance except the grantee named therein, and such conveyance shall vest the title to such property in such grantee and a conveyance by such grantee, whether followed by the words "trustee" or "as trustee" or "agent" or not, shall vest title in his grantee free from any claims of all persons or corporations. B. Subsection A of this section shall not apply if other written evidence is recorded, whether before or after the grantor's death, which establishes that an express trust does exist with respect to property which the grantor has conveyed by deed to his grantee followed by the words "trustee" or "as trustee" provided such other written evidence is recorded prior to conveyance of such property by such grantee.
