Several years having elapsed since the last edition
of Powell on Mortgages became out Of print, il
thought that the appearance of new, greatly en-
la~ged, and much improved English edition of
Coote on Mortgage presented an excellent oppor-
tunity for offering to the profession in this country
reprint of so valuable and standard authority.
| With this object the book was placed in the hands

| 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 I,

! deem, and when," ''as TO what will and will
| not constitute mortgage of personal property"
assignment of mortgage" cas- to the mortg agce,"
