A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Bench on the Common Law side latelyobserved, in the Court of A ppeal, that he did not believe there were any rules for the interpretation of Wills or Settlements. In a sense this obiter dictum was right; for where a Will or Deed is unambiguous, then, so far as the interpretation is concerned the arriving at the testators or settlors expressed intention the only rule is unimaginative common sense and sound judgment. As the present Master of the Eolls recently said: When I see an intention clearly expressed in a Will, and find no rule of law opposed to giving effect to it, I disregard previous cases. a) But, unfortunately, a large proportion of such documents (at all events of Wills) are not in this happy state of lucidity,. They are ambiguous or equivocal, and in these cases the principles which former Judges have enunciated for arriving at a conclusion as to the intention are undoubtedly of great value.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
