CONVEYANCING LECTURES, by RICHARD
HORTON SMITH, Esq., Barrister-at-Law.
These lectures, like those on the same subject delivered
during the past year, of which they will be a continuation,
it is proposed to render of as practical a nature as may be.
Like them, also, they will be devoted to the discussion, at
greater or less length, as the importance of the several
subjects shall seem to demand, and the time at disposal will
allow, of some of the points in the Principles and Practice
of Conveyancing most frequently occurring in actual
business.
The Course will consist of Twelve Lectures, and will be
commenced with a recapitulation of the last Course so far
as it regarded the practical work of drawing Assurances.
It is then proposed to discuss the assurances in use on sales
of copyholds and leaseholds; and it is expected that these
subjects, and that of assurances in use on sales of chattels
personal, will occupy the first five lectures. The remainder
of the Course will be devoted to the consideration of Mort-
gages, Settlements, Wills, and Miscellaneous Instruments,
to be taken in that. order.

'amongst other established text books, will be most fre-
