Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Laws of Descent The laws of descent were an organic part of the feudal system; and, so far as the general principle of succession is involved, have come down to us unchanged. Important alterations have been made in the order and lines of succes sion. The course of descent has also been subjected to be entirely defeated by the alienation of the ancestor while alive, and by his testamentary alienation to take effect at and after his death. His estate has also been made liable to the payment of his debts, and the fulfillment of his personal obligations, after the succession of the heir. Otherwise, the heir succeeds the ancestor in the ownership of the estate, precisely as he did under the feudal law, in all the States of this country; that is, his right of succession is based upon the same principle, which regulated succession under purely feudal organizations. It is, therefore, necessary to fully understand the principle and operation of the feudal succes sion, in order to understand the principle and operation of inheritance at the present day. This work is designed to put the student in possession of a full and familiar know ledge of the feudal law, and of feudal customs in that respect. Having possessed himself of that general knowledge, the student has then attained a standpoint from which he can command a clear view, and a ready comprehension of the Whole of this department of the law, in all its practical operations and incidents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Wills, Vol. 3: Including Also Gifts Causa and a by Summary of the Law of Descent, Distribution and Administration In discussing questions on which the statutes differ an attempt has been made to indicate what the statute of each state is, citing the latest compilation, and arranging the states by groups and in alphabetical order. Likewise, in considering the questions on which the courts are not agreed, the states have been tabulated in alphabetical order, and reference made to the principal and the latest decision in each state where decisions on the question are found. It is due my excellent friend, Professor Floyd R. Mech em, to say, that he encouraged me to undertake the pres ent work, often materially aided me in the execution of it, gave me free use of the material prepared by him while teaching these subjects at the University of Michi gan (much of which I have used), and that his scheme of treatment has been substantially followed throughout.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Real Property The author was for seventeen years a lecturer upon the law of real property, and for the major part of that time a professor, teaching that subject in the Law School of Boston University. He hopes that this long experience in dealing with that department of law will be a sufficient apology for his offering this book to the public. It will be found that up to the last few chapters the book is climacteric. The effort is made to lead the reader up the steps of a ladder, and cross references are freely made, so that he may collocate in his mind a proposition he has already learned in some previous chapter, with some other proposition in the later chapter, and thus the reader is helped to think of the two propositions together, although they are required to be stated in the order in which they are presented. It is evident from this statement that the book is intended to be useful to students of law who are undertaking the study of real property. But it is hoped that the book will be found useful to the practitioner, and that it may not be unworthy of the attention even of members of the courts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wills, Descent, and Administration Impressed by the excellence of the case system as a means of legal education, but convinced that no satisfactory adjustment of the con ﬂiet between training and knowledge under existing time restrictions has yet been found, the General Editor takes pleasure in announcing a series of scholarly casebooks, prepared with special reference to the needs and limitations of the class - room, on the fundamental sub jects of legal education, which, through a judicious rearrangement of emphasis, shall provide adequate training combined with a thor ough knowledge of the general principles of the subject. The collee tion will develop the law historically and scientifically; English cases will give the origin and development of the law in England; Ameri can cases will trace its expansion and modification in America; note.c and annotations will suggest phases omitted in the printed case Cumulative references will be avoided, for the footnote may not hope to rival the digest. The 'law will thus be presented as an organic growth, and the necas sary connection between the past and the present will be obvious.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Citizenship in the United States "The distinction between citizens proper, that is, the constituent members of the political sovereignty, and subjects of that sovereignty who are not, therefore, citizens is recognized in the best authorities of the public law." This distinction is true. The further question of who are and who are not citizens has its difficulties, Accept the definition of citizenship to be the enjoyment of equal rights and privileges at home, and equal protection abroad, and consider the question from this standpoint, from which alone it should be treated, for we have no law in the United States which divides our citizens into classes or makes any difference whatever between them. We then discover the importance that the equal rights of citizens when at home should maintain when abroad, because questions as to citizenship are determined by municipal law in subordination to the law of nations. Therefore, the value of citizenship should not be underestimated. Every individual should have some central point from which he emanates and to which he returns, where he is clothed with citizenship and the consequent enjoyment of all rights and privileges which citizenship confers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Choses in Action: Together With an Appendix of Forms and Statutes In the initial tentative steps which were taken towards a fusion of Law and Equity, one of the earliest subjects dealt with was that of choses in action; and amid all the efforts which have been made, none has been more successful. The doctrines of Equity and Common Law have been assimilated in the highest degree, where, before, the divergence was very wide, and we now have choses in action as freely assignable at law, as they are in equity. The result of this assimilation is, that a greater activity is displayed in the assignment of debts, etc., since a debt is generally speaking, as easily recoverable in the hands of an assignee as if it remained in the hands of the original owner. As an evidence of the increase of transactions in assignments of choses in action, it may be mentioned that during the last four years more cases have appeared in our reports under this head, than appeared before that time. This important subject, however, has remained without a commentator, as no work has anywhere appeared treating of it. To supply the want of such a work, r have undertaken this Manual. In so doing, I look with confidence for the generous criticism of the profession. Besides being a subject, on which no other work than this has appeared, it is one of some difficulty. "The law upon this subject is brought to such an exquisite degree of refinement, that it is by no means easy to understand it," is what was said by Lord Justice Brett in Field v. Mesmer (L. R. 4 C. P., 664). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Partition of Real and Personal Property It is difficult for the lawyer in active practice to write a treatise upon any topic. And yet it seems to me that a law-book would be almost worthless if written by one having an order of the Supreme Court at general term, saying that he is an attorney and counselor at law, but having no practice. Almost every day the practitioner wonders why courts cannot and do not agree with each other, and he congratulates himself whenever he finds that some certain court has been consistent with itself. As a usual thing a court of last resort is consistent with itself and with common sense and good law. If a court of last resort becomes inconsistent in its rulings, one will generally find that it has undertaken to distinguish one case from another; and in this distinguishing, as it is termed, the best court in the world will overrule itself, and then the practitioner and the author find the law in doubt.
