Glorious Uncertainty of the Lau,.

1850 NSS' s'S''''S " ''sc 1<Hh's
The last number Of the Law Journal
contains an account Of an edifyins in.
stance of this excellent quality Of the
law, namely, its utter uncertainty. The
case was as follows MIR. James
Green, a gentleman Of South Carolina,
purchased an estate Of one Thomas
Wilson. After Wilson's death, his
heirs 6led bill 10 equity to have the
conveyance set aside, on the ground
that Wilson, who derived his title from
the will of his grand father, took ONLY
life estate by that will. and of course
had no right to sell it ia fee TO MIR.
Green, aud the court decided in favor
of the plaintiffs. This decision of the
court is reviewed by the Law Journal,
and contruverted, the editors observing
iii c"nciusion;-"Mr. Green has GER
ia My lost an estate, Of which, as far
.s We can judge, he was the just and
lawful owner. Such is the glorious On.
Ger ainty Of the law. If there be any
thing more certain than another, ia
his world, it is that law is the e,ost
uncertain of all human things.''
