Excerpt from The Law Relating to Chief Rents and Other Rentcharges: And Lands as Affected Thereby, With a Chapter on Restrictive Covenants, and a Selection of Preccedents Modern Acts of Parliament are through out referred to by the short titles which are now always provided, as it is believed that the object and purpose of an enactment can be much more readily apprehended thus than by the citation of figures, which serve only for reference. Where necessary, these latter can be ascertained from the Index under the head of i' Statutes A word of explanation may be necessary in regard to the statutory provisions set out in the text. These do not profess to be quotations, or to give more than what is pertinent to the point in ques tion. On any collateral point, reference should therefore be made to the Act itself. I have to thank Mr. F. S. Higson, Solicitor, for kindly perusing the manuscript, and for many valuable hints and suggestions.
