These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside The Curiosities and Law of Wills: Look inside the book: The following words are used by an individual whoPg 12 died in London in June, 1791, in reference to his wife: “Seeing that I have had the misfortune to be married to the aforesaid Elizabeth, who ever since our union has tormented me in every possible way; that not content with making game of all my remonstrances, she has done all she could to render my life miserable; that Heaven seems to have sent her into the world solely to drive me out of it; that the strength of Samson, the genius of Homer, the prudence of Augustus, the skill of Pyrrhus, the patience of Job, the philosophy of Socrates, the subtlety of Hannibal, the vigilance of Hermogenes, would not suffice to subdue the perversity of her character; that no power on earth can change her, seeing we have lived apart during the last eight years, and that the only result has been the ruin of my son, whom she has corrupted and estranged from me. ...“And for the due and full accomplishment and performance of all other things conteined with the same in the form of an indenture, signed with our own hand, which shall be passed by way of covenant for that purpose between the said Deane and Cannons and our executors, if it pass not between us and the said Deane and Cannons in our liefe; that is to say, the said Deane and Cannons and their successours forever shall finde two prestes to say masses at the said aulter to be made where wePg 26 have before appointed our tomb to be made and stand; and also after our decease kepe yerely four solemne obites for us within the said College of Windesour, and at every of the same obites to cause a solemne sermon to be made, and also at every of the said obites to give to poor people in almes tenne poundes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Law of Wills The first edition was so broad in scope that it has seemed unwise to deal with entirely new topics. In connection with the topics dealt with in the first edition, the editor has sought primarily to consider those cases which have been decided in the twelve years which have elapsed since the publication of that edition. Some changes and a large number of additions have been made, especially in the notes. Many cases in support of new text have been referred to, and a con siderable number of recent cases have been cited, because they con tain valuable discussions or deal with matters which are still in dis pute. Although realizing that defects in general statements are nu avoidable, the statements in the black-letter text have usually been re tained, but the fact that the authorities are in conflict has been made clear in many instances where this did not appear in the former edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Curiosities of Law and Lawyers ON lately retiring, after half a century's prac tice of the Law, my companions, in Grand Divan assembled, bound me over to complete for their use a Repertory of Good Things relating to our common profession, which I had long been preparing, and of which they had read and heard snatches. These presents contain this fond memorial of departed joys. There are many favourite sayings, standard illustrations, golden sentences, exploits of legal heroes, jests, ex planations of curious and memorable doctrines and incidents, which make up the natural history of the Lawyer Tribe. I have with great care selected and assorted these, and trust they will be found to amuse, if not edify, Lawyers, as well as their numerous Clients.

Download or read book The Law of Wills written by Melville Madison Bigelow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Wills: For Students When asked some time ago to write a book on Wills for the Students' Series, I told my publishers, who are owners of the American copyright of Jarman on Wills, under the International Copyright Law, that I would try it if I could have free use of Jarman and my own notes to that work. How much the permission given has been used, the references to Jarman, scattered up and down the present volume, in part bear witness. But a word or two need now be said. This book agrees with those who find an important place for legal theory in education for the bar. Chapter I., largely on the theory of wills in relation to the State, and Chapter XIV., largely on the theory of construction, are only more express examples, because of their relative and intrinsic importance, of what more or less runs through the book. Whatever mode of instruction is pursued, whether the Harvard, which is powerfully modifying where it is not taking the place of other methods, or any other, the doctrines of the law should, I think, be taught in direct connection with and in the light of legal theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of the Law of Wills: With Selected Cases It would be hardly justifiable to express a conviction that this book will prove as useful to practising lawyers as to the student. But it is believed that it will prove useful even to them as a com pact and careful review and summary of the important principles and doctrines in its field, and as a convenient means Of reference to the best and most telling authorities. The very wealth of material in the large treatises, -some Of which are beyond all need of praise for their great worth and practical value, - Often renders it difficult to determine which of the army Of 'cases cited are the best for reading or reference. Here the citations are, so to speak, few, but they are carefully chosen and important. For lawyers who have not convenient access to large libraries, the selected cases also constitute a reservoir of valuable original authorities.

Download or read book The Law of Wills and the Administration of Estates Classic Reprint written by William Patterson Borland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Wills and the Administration of Estates This volume is a revision and an enlargement of Notes on the Law of Wills and the Administration of the Estates of Deceased Persons published by me seven years ago. That work was the publication in book form of lectures on the sub ject which I had delivered yearly to the senior class of the Kansas City School of Law. It was confined in its citations mainly to the law of Missouri and Kansas. It proved a very useful book both for students and practitioners. The present volume is an enlargement of that work by in cluding all of the leading cases in this country and in Eng land on the subject. It is intended to make this the best one volume work on the subject. It contains a concise statement of all the principles, in language supported by authority. It contains also an exposition of the reason and relative bearing of the rules. In other words, it is designed to be what the lawyer and student need - a text book which places them in possession of the subject, and not a running digest of ill assorted cases. It will be found of especial value to the Western lawyer and student, as it cites every case and discusses every rule em bodied in the common or statute law of the following group of states: Missouri, Arkansas, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Ne vada, and California. It cites, also, every case bearing upon the subject decided in the Federal Courts, including the Su preme Court of the United States, the Circuit Courts of Ap peals, the Circuit and District Courts, the territorial courts, and the courts of the District of Columbia.
