The Reis Effendi has not had any coolerences for some

PARLIAMENTARY PAPER.
REPORT OF THE COSISMIONERS ON THE LAW
OF REAL PROPERTY.
(Continued from our Paper of yesterday.)
PRESCRIPTION, Arlo THE LIMITATION OF ACTIONS.
We have now to advert to the subject of prescription
and the limitation of actions for the recovery of real
property. It might at first sight be considered that,
the duration of wrong ought not to give it a sanction,
and that the long suffering of injury should be no bar
to the obtaining of right when demanded. But human
affairs must be conducted on other principles. It is
found to be of the greatest importance, to promote
peace, by affixing a period to the right of disturbing
possession. Experience teaches us, that owing to the
perishable nature of all evidence, the truth cannot be
ascertained on any contested question of fact after a
considerable lapse of time. The temptation to intro-
duce false evidence grows with the difficulty of detect•
ing it ; and, at last, lons possession affords the proof,
the most safely to be relied upon, of the right of pro-
perty. Independently of the question of right. the dis-
turbance of property after long enjoyment is mis-
enievous. It is accordingly found both reasonable and
useful that enjoyment for a certain period of time against
all claimants should be considered conclusive evidence
of the title.
This period should be so fixed as to give ample
opportunity to assert just rights, and yet not to counte-
nance claims which have been long dormant. It will
he found that different kinds of property, as land and
advowsons, will require different periods of limitation ;
but there seems no reason why there should not be for
each kind of property one uniform period of limitation,
depending upon the length of adverse enjoyment, and
riot upon the form of the remedy selected by the claim-
ant, or upon any act of the party in possession for the
purpose of abridging it.
On this subject the law of England is very unsyste-
matic and very defective. At common law there was
no per iod of limitation except a year and a day after a
recovery in certain real actions; and the statutes which
• have been passed to create or to vary the periods of li-
mitation have had no regard to uniformity or consis-
tency, and have laid down rules which do not depend
upon the nature of the right to be acquired or defended,
but upon a number of technical distinctions, with re-
ference to which a confused and unprofitable variety of
remedies is afforded to the claimant; or upon the secret
act of the party in possession.
The existing periods of limitation chiefly depend upon
32 Hen. 3, c. 2. 21 Jac. 1. c.. 16, and 4 Hen. 7. c. 24,
together with the rules laid down by Courts of Justice
respecting legal memory arid presumption.
By 32 lien. 8, c. 2, a writ of right on the seisin of
an ancestor, to which till then there was no limit, ex-
cept the reign of Richard the Ist, was confined to sixty
years, and a possessory action on the seisin of an an-
cestor to fifty years; and no real action, droitural or
possessory, could be maintained by any persoh on his
own seisin after a lapse of dusty years. Foi tendons in
reverter or remainder were requited to be sued within
fifty. years; and it was enacted, that no avowry or cog-
eixruce should be made for any rent or service after
fitt y years from the sex sin of an aucestor or any other
pet sna.
The vatute 21 Jac. 1, c. 16, limits the period for all
writs of intmedon to twenty years, and generally enacts,
th.t no person shall ni.ke entry into any lands but
wirfnn twenty years twat alter his right of entry accrued.
Tins, with the single exception of fine and nonclaim,
was the tit 4 and i• the only limit by statute to a tight
of envy, which at cottouou law was never taken away
by la; se of time, but only by descent, cast, disconti-
nualite, or warranty.
The statute r.f 52 Hen. 8. c. 2, contains no saving,
except as to rights which were in existence when it was
passer:; but 21 .lac. 1. c. 16, saves the right of pet sons
under disability when their rights accrue.
To actions of dower, escheat, waste, and several
others in which sei.iii need not be alleged, there is no
bar; and there is no period of limitation, fixed either
by statute or judicial piesuntption, with respect to the
right to lay tithes or advowsons. In some cases, the
want of a fixed period of limitation has been supplied
by the doubtful doctrine of presumption. Since 9 Geo.
1. c. 16, the rights of the Crown are barred by adverse
enjoyment for sixty years; but these is yet no Statute
of Limitations for the Church. A presumptive right
to incorporeal hereditaments can only be established by
proof of enjoyment of them for such a period as will
justify a Jury, under the direction of a Judge, to infer
that the enjoyment has continued ever since the com-
mencement of the reign of Richard the Ist.
By statute 4 Henry 7. c. 24, a fine with proclama-
tions is made a bar to all persons having present rights
of entry, and not being under any disabilities, if they
do ant claim within five years after the proclamations
made; to all persons under disabilities, if they do not
claim within five years after their disabilities are re-
moved ; and to all persons not having present rights,
if they do riot claim within five years after their rights
of entry accrue, unle.s under disabilities, and then
within five years after the removal of their disabilities.
In many cases, the above statutes do not sufficiently
protect possession. In some they restrict too much the
right of recovery.

law supposes them to he made public) to bar the right-
ful owner in the short space of six years from the time
when the right accrued.
We propose that the law should be tendered simple
and consistent—by giving an uniform and ceitaiii effect
to adverse enjoyment—by giving all persons alleging
that they ore unjustly deprived of their estates the same
time for enforcing their claims, with a certain indul•
gence to claimants under disabilities—and by giving
one remedy at law with regard to lands, instead of the
existing variety of remedies to which the different periods
of limitation are attached.
Notwithstanding the anomalies to which we have
adverted, the period of twenty years is the limitation
which in this country is generally acted upon,and which,
being established in some instances by statute, and found
to suit the convenience of society, has been made the
foundation of legal presumption. and the rule for al-
fording or refusing equitable relief. We think this
should be retained, and with a sew exceptions and quail.
.fications made universal. There is likewise one remedy
ttf recover possessiou of land. which in practice hat
nearly superseded all others. We think that this alone,
with some improvements, should be retained and es-
telided to all cases. Adverse possession of land for a
period of twenty years will then be required to be, and
will be a bar to all adverse claims; and all the anti-
quated forms of proceeding which are now occasionally
resorted to for the recovery of landed property will
give way to meat.
The est dlinent of this period of liMitation. and
the of real actions, would tend greatly to

diminish litigation, and "Would save the owners of real
property from much vexation .and expense to which
they are at present exposed, sometimes in defending
their possession, and still mote frequently when they
attempt alienation. By the proposed alteration the
practical efficient remedy for recovering possession
would not be impaired. When the ancient remedies
were framed, descent was the chief mode of transmit-
ting real property, and devises, terms of years, and the
distinction between legal and equitable estates were
nearly unknown. The actions which may now be
brought after an adverse possession of twenty years, are
almost exclusively applicable to the case of an heir
claiming a legal estate by descent, and they require
that he should allege and prove a seisin is his ancestor.
If a chattel interest in land be claimed, if the claim be
under a will or conveyance or entail, an adverse pos-
session of twenty years is an absolute bar. In Courts
of Equity, the rule is generally understood to be esta-
blished, that after an adverse possession of twenty years,
no relief can be given; and when it is considered how
generally the existence of mortgages, trusts, and out-
standing terms prevents any legal remedy, it will be
found that this rule is applicable to a very large pro-
portion of the land in England. So far the proposal is
no innovation ; and surely there ought not to be longer
limitation for legal than for equitable estates, both being
alike capable of adverse possession, and the claimant
having at least as good an opportunity of asserting his
right, if the legal estate be in himself, as if it had been
vested in a trustee.

Although a claim can seldom be set up after twenty
years adverse possession, the instances, however rare, in
which this occurs, render all titles questionable to the
extreme limit ever allowed; and upon the sale and
mortgage of land, it is necessary that every tide should
be strictly examined for nearly a century, and that
evidence should be given of the enjoyment, transfer
and devolution of the property during that long period.
This is a main cause of the length of abstracts neces-
sary to be laid before conveyancers, and of the harasiing
and expensive injuries to which they gave rise. * Many
titles, notwithstanding long enjoyment, are found un-
marketable ; and if, after tedious delays, the transaction
is completed, the law expenses inevitably incurred
sometimes amount to no inconsiderable proportion of
the value of the property. From the increased fre-
quency with which real property changes hands in mo-
dern times, the length of'abstracts is a growing evil,
which calls loudly for remedy ; and we think some di,
minution of the evil will be produced by shortening and
making uniform the period of limitation, although to
guard against the fabrication of fee simple titles by per-
sons in possession under particular estates, it will still
be requisite to investigate titles for a greater number
of years than the period of limitation which may be
prescribed.
It seems to us, that with the exception of Dower and
44 Qum Impede (for which perhaps simpler substitutes
may be framed) all real actions, and plaints in the na-
ture of real actions, may be usefully abolished. Instead
of those which are framed for injuries done to property,
where the right to the property is not directly in goes;
tion, actions en the case have long been, and may still
continue to be, resorted to. As to those cases for the
recovery of possession, in which, at present, ejectment
does not lie within the period of twenty years, we think
it should be enacted, that whoever has a title to an es-
tate in possession, shall have a right of entry. notwith•
standing any impediment by which, as the law now
stands, his right of entry would be barred. Wherever
there is a right of action there should be a right of cuts y,
arid wherever there is a right of entry there should be a
right of action. We also think that continual claim,
by which rights of entry may be kept alive beyond the
twenty years, should be abolished; and that within that
time, the claimant must either redress his wrong by his
own act, in availing himself of an opportunity to take
peaceable possession, or he must call in the aid of law
by commencing his action. We are of opinion that
nominal entries on land, which do not change the
possession, should be of no avail to the claimant in ex-
tending the period of limitation. By 4th and sth Anne,
c. 16, s. 16, an action may be commenced for the reco-
very of land, within one year next after making entry
upon ir, or claiming it with due solemnity. But an
entry without change of possession, is genially a secret
act ; great doubts may arise respecting the proof of it
in point of fact, and also as to what amounts to such ao.
entry in point of law; and it seems better for both
parties to require that within the prescribed period,
either possession shall be openly taken by the claimant,
upon which an action of trespass may immediately be
brought against him ; or if he cannot obtain possession,
that he should commence an action of ejectment to try
the right.
Before we ventured to recommend so important a
measure as the entire abolition of real actinos, we made

diligent inquiry into the practical operation of this sys-
tem of law; and from the result, we have every reason
to think that it would have been beneficial to the com-
munity if real actions had been abolished flora the time
when the modern act of ejectment was devised. Within
the last hundred years many real actions have been
brought after the remedy by ejectment was barred, but
we cannot learn that mole than one or two have suc-_

ceeded. They have generally originated in schemes of
unprincipled practitioners of the law, to defraud per-
sons in a low condition of lite of their substance, under
pretence of recovering for theta large estates, to which
they had no colour of tide. In many instances ruin
has been the consequence to the Jemandants, and in all
much vexation and expense have been occasioned to
the tenants, who, hoverer groundless the claim may
be, by a strange cape ice of the law, arc not allowed any
portion of the costs which they have incurred in de.
(eating it, when brought fotward in this peculiarly
harassing form.
We beg leave to advert to the scandal supposed by
marry to have been brought upon the administration of
linstice, by the decisions of the Judges, for the purpose
of discouraging real actions—which these learned per.
sons have thought so mischievous, that they might be
usefully and properly defeated by any means. if any ,
blip is made in any of the proceedings from the inatten-
tion or inexperience of the attorney or counsel, no
anteodnsent is allowed, and the claimant appears to
fail, run from the badness of his cause, but from the
fault of his professional adviser, and from the Court
taking upon itself indirectly to defeat a remedy still
tolerated by the Legislature.
We cannot refrain from likewise mentioning the ad-
vantage which it may be hoped will arise to the pro-
fession of the law, and therefore to the public, from thr
abolition of real actions, in rendering useless the vast
mass of technical learning connected with them. This
every diligent student of the common law has hitherto
thought it incumbent on him to make himself ac-
quainted with.
While almost all those whom we have consulted
have recommended that there should be only one pr
clod of Waitaki., and one legal remedy for the recs.
very of land, some have suggested that as an equivalent
for the abolition of real actions, die right of entry
I shearld be extended to thirty years. But after great

consideration, we are of opinion that the period of
twenty years should be adhered O. As knowledge is
diffused, and the administration of justice becomes re-
gular and pure, the periodi of limitation may be safely
abridged. By the statute of 32 Henry VIII. c. 2, the
period of limitation was reduced to sixty years from
352, at which it then stood ; and by 21 James I, the
period was again reduced, for all practical purposes, to
twenty years. In analogy to this express 'mutable li-
mitation, many presumptions have been established,
both in Courts of Law and Equity. with respect to the
creation and extinguishment of rights and obligations.'
If the period were altered, these presumptions would
be disturbed, and much doubt and confusion might be
introduced into important branches of law, which rest',

on judicial decision.
But the shorter period of limitation now in use esta-
blished by the statute of 4 Henry VII. c. 24, we con-
sider anomalous, unjust. and mischievous. However
it may have been adapted to the times in which it passed,
when the quieting ot titles after the long civil wars ot
York and Lancaster might require some extraordinary
remedy, it is not suited to the present state of society.
It proceeds not on the long acquiescence of the claim-
ant. or those whom he repre•ents, which is the just
ground of prescription, but on the act of the party in
possession, who. to derive any benefit from it, must be
considered as holding an estate to which another is le-
gally entitled. A convenience, certainly, sometimes is
experienced from a bona fide purchaser being enabled,
by levying a fine with proclamations, to protect him-
self against a lawful title which is discovered of er his
purchase, and which. though using reasonable dili.
gene, he could not have detected earlier. If the prac-
tice of acquiring a title in this manner could be con.
fined to casesof peculiar hardship, the law would be
salutary. and might on that ground be justified. but
unfortunately it is equally applicable to purposes offraud.
From time to time cases occur in which the tightsof
the adverse possessor and of the rightful owner, are in
an equitable point of view equally balanced, and others
in which the adverse possessor has no shadow of right
or title against the rightful owner. In the first, the
law as it now stands permits the person in possession,
through the medium of some legal forms, to turn the '
balance of the scale in his own favour; and in the latter,
the person in possession is permitted, through the me-
dium of the same forms, to commit an absolute fraud.
Every law ought to be a fixed positive rule, to be re-
laxed only ou principles of equity. It is contrary to all
principle that a party intetested should have it in his
power to relax the law in his own favour. It would be
idle to defend the principle upon which the obtaining
of a title by fine and nonclains is supported in our
books, namely, the publicity given to the transaction
by the fine being matter of record, and proclaimed in
open Court. The supposed publicity is a mere fiction
of law. The object of the party levying the floe i. to
keep the lawful owner in ignorance, and the proceeding
is effectual only when this object is attained. The fic-
titious recovery in a collusive suit cannot now be the
just foundation of any term of prescription.
Besides, we are persuaded that the loss of the advan-
tage of this proceeding by fine and nonclaim will not•
be often felt. It can seldom be relied upon for making
a marketable title. It is not applicable to copyhold
lands, nor to lands held in ancient demesne. nor to,
many cases of equitable estates; and it does not afford
protection against rights of entry subsequently accru-
ing. Like other laws at variance with the general
feelings of mankind, it has given rise to strained deci-
sions by courts of Justice; and at present it is some-
, times difficult to anticipate whether the parties would
or would not be held to have had a snfficient estate in
the premises to give effect to the fine with proclamations.
