THE

PREFACE

A

S Conveyancing bath always been esteemed one of the most confiderable Branches of the Law, our FStates and Fortunes being thereby fecured to us and our Posterity in the furest Manner; to publish a compleat Work of the best Precedents and Instructions, in the whole Course of that Business, is a great and neceffary Undertaking, worthy to be attempted.

This Confideration, (with the good Reception my Court-Keeper bas met with) keightned my Ambition to be concerned in fo useful and beneficial a Performance, wherein I have endeavoured to Set all Obscurities in a clear Light, and made use of such Methods and Instruments to accomplish the Same, as will render it a Directory to all, even in the most difficult Matters, so as to draw any Deed or Conveyance in the most effectual Manner.

:

This first Volume, you may observe, contains an Abridgment of the Law relating to Conveyancing, and all Deeds in general, with every Thing incident to them, which I bave briefly collected from all the Books of any Signification extant on that Head, and which may ferve as a fufficient Instruction concerning the Legality of Deeds: And alfo all Manner of the smaller Kinds of Precedents, concluding with Settlements of Personal Estates, Annuities, Money in Funds, &c. But neither these Precedents, nor those contained in my two last Volumes of this Work, are such as you meet with in the Works of other Persons, unless it be Some few absolutely neceffary.

The Second Volume, comprehends Special Gifts, Grants, Assignments, Mortgages,
