DECLARATION OF TITLE 13ILL.

Lord CRANWORVI moved the third reading of this
bill, the object of which-wasAo enable parties to go before
the Court of Chance?y tal-ms.he a declaration that they

had a perfectly good title to certain property, and, having
made the declaration, that they might then go into the
market and sell the land if they felt so disposed. The bill
created no new tribunal, neither did it involve any expense ;
and as it was founded on the principle of the Encumbered
Estates Court in Ireland, which had worked so well, he
thought it desirable that that system should be introduced

into this country. The bill could do no harm, but in his
opinion it was calculated to do a very great deal of good,
especially as it was founded on the system which had been
in existence in Ireland for the last 14 years.
Lord CHELMSFORD explained his reasons for agree-
ing to the bill which differed so essentially from the one he
had introduced,
The bill was then read a third time and passed.

penses of registrar and clerks followed as a necessary come.
