Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Law of Scotland in Relation to Wills and Succession, Vol. 1 of 2: Including the Subjects of Intestate Succession, and the Construction of Will, Entails, and Trust-Settlements At an early period in his professional life, the author perceived that a text-book on the Law of Wills and Succession would be an acceptable addition to the literature of the Law of Scotland. His treatise on the Law of Trusts, published in 1863, was a partial fulfilment of an intention then formed of supplying the deficiency; and the favour with which it was received, notwithstanding the defects which were inseparable from the limits which the author had imposed on himself, encouraged him to attempt the preparation of a work of a more comprehensive character, and more nearly approaching to the standard to which the indulgent criticism of the profession had permitted him to aspire. In the fulfilment of this design, the plan of the Law of Trusts has been entirely abandoned. The first volume of the present work, which treats of the subjects of Intestate Succession, and the construction of Wills, Entails, and Settlements of Landed Estate, is almost entirely new. A portion of the second volume also is new, and the remainder is taken from the text of the Law of Trusts, but considerably altered, and in part re-written. The Law of Wills and Succession may therefore claim to be regarded as a new work, incorporating the substance of the Law of Trusts; and, allowance being made for the difference in the size of the pages of the two impressions, the present work will be found to contain nearly twice the quantity of matter in the former. The author may be permitted to add that everything has been done that personal exertion could accomplish to secure accuracy in the statement of the law, and in the references to its authorities. The preparation of the new matter has been the constant occupation of his spare time during several years. In the revision of the proof sheets, the whole of the references have been personally verified by comparison with the original reports and treatises. The learned reader will know how to make allowance for imperfections in the treatment of a subject so extensive and intricate as the present. For errors for which this excuse cannot be pleaded, the author ventures to hope for the same indulgence which has been extended to him in his former literary efforts.
