teancases. vol. lvo, 500 pages.
Several years having elapsed since the last edition
of Powell on Mortgages became out of print it
thought that the appearance OF a new, greatly en-
arg,d, and much improved English edition OF
Coote Mortgage presented an excellent oppor-
tunty for Offering the profession in this country
reprint of so valuable and standard an authority
With this object the book placed in the hands
of editor To whom confided the preparation
of American notes. This duty has been well done
Upon some OF the most important points the notes
quite elaborate, and all exhibit great care and
diligence in their preparation. The title "as tD
what Will constitute a mortgage ''who may
deem, and wten," "as to what will and will
constitute mortgage of personal property"
"assignmento OF mortgage, "as to the mortgage"
'as to the mortgagor," ''notice," registry and
priority" ,""what will discharge mortgage &c,
are all examined carefully, and illustrated by re-
ference to a large and valuable of authorities
We think the work will be found an important adj
dition to every law library.
In press. and will shortly be issued the follow.
ing valuable additions to the Legal Literature of
the day.
