Excerpt from Handbook of the Law of Real Property The term, therefore, includes both real and personal property, ' and it is often thus expressly defined in statutes.' The word property, however, may have different meanings, under different circum stances, according to the manner in which it is used.3 Moreover, the word owner as applied to land has no fixed legal meaning which can be applied under all circumstances, and to every statu tory enactment.'

Excerpt from A Collection of Leading Cases on the Public Land Laws of the United States: With Notes and References It is also hoped that the volume may be found of use to those having to do with the disposition of the Public Lands, either as executive officers, or as attorneys practicing before the Land Department. As the laws relating to Private Land Claims and Mineral Lands have no application to the body or mass of the Public Lands, the decisions under them have not been given.

Book Description
Excerpt from Modern Land Law Twenty years' experience as a student, and some ten years of teaching, have led the author, rightly or wrongly, to the conclusion, that there is room for another textbook on the important and difficult subject of English Land Law. The class of readers by whom, as it appears to him, such a book is especially needed, consists of those students who, either at the Universities or elsewhere, have to get up their law without the attractions, or distractions, of professional surroundings. But he ventures to think that there are others to whom the book will be useful. Needless to say, the author has not endeavoured to recommend his work by originality of views, nor by criticism of accepted doctrines. Modern English Land Law is a dogmatic system, which rests entirely on authority; and its contents are, with a few exceptions, free from doubt.

Excerpt from View of the Land Laws of Pennsylvania; With Notices of Its Early History and Legislation The careful study of it. In the following work, it has been constantly referred to. At the same time it may be observed, that it is now almost thirty years since it was published, and during that time, many disputed points have been settled by our courts, and much light thrown on the whole doctrine by the learning of the bench and the bar. Besides which, it admits of improvement in method; the time of the learned wri ter being sufficiently occupied with collecting and bringing together the various materials from their recesses, without the opportunity of giving to them that order and finish which would have been desi.

Excerpt from The Laws of War on Land: Written and Unwritten The evolution of customary rules, designed to lessen the sufferings resulting from warfare, was the earliest achievement of the nascent science of International Law. It is, therefore, not surprising that, when, in quite recent times, efforts began to be made to formulate in writing the precepts of that science, by the quasi legislative action of the civilized Powers of the world in Conference assembled, the first topic so to be dealt with should be the conduct of war.

Book Description
Excerpt from Coal Lands and Coal-Land Laws of the United States Mr. Mondell. You do not mean to say that in making a coal declaratory statement the party is required to state that he knew the character of the land and that it was valuable? Mr. Clark. I so understand it. Mr. Mondell. I think you will find that the coal declaratory statements are in the majority of cases made through an agent, with the specific statement that the blanks published by the Government contain the provision to be filled out that they have no knowledge of the character of the land except by hearsay, but that their agent has knowledge and that he makes the nonmineral affidavit. I don't think that there can be any doubt about that. Mr. Gaines. It seems that Mr. Clark is stating a fact of his own knowledge, derived in his official capacity. Mr. Mondell. I simply wanted to make that suggestion at this point because it is, it seems to me, a very important matter. Mr. Gaines. But let us find out what they have actually done out there. Mr. Mondell. But I think it is an important question, Mr. Chairman, whether a coal declaratory statement requires that the entryman shall - The Chairman. Mr. Clark is merely stating his understanding? Mr. Clark. I am stating the understanding that was brought out in the investigation at which I was present; and with reference to these lands the understood facts as agreed to by the attorneys on both sides, at least not contradicted, excepting perhaps that the attorney for the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad Company announced the view that the statute required nothing except that the applicant be a citizen of the United States and of lawful age, and has an unquestioned right to enter a coal declaratory statement and transfer the rights for a consideration to any other person or company before the patent to the land had been issued; and, as a matter of fact, that is what was done with the most of the coal lands that have been entered. Mr. Gaines. Did you say that some of those entries or declarations have been made by women? Mr. Clark. Yes, sir. Mr. Gaines. How many? Mr. Clark. I would not undertake to say how many, only that we drew out enough information in our investigation to show that many had been done in that way, and some who had entered lands in that way came before us as witnesses. One young lady in Salt Lake City who was, I should judge from appearances, probably 22 or 25 years of age, testified that at the invitation of the geologist of the Utah Fuel Company, or at his suggestion, she went to the office of the attorney of that company and signed a paper. She did not know what it was; and later she went to the office and signed another paper of which she was equally ignorant; but she did know that she got $50 for her services. And the records show that she entered a quarter section of coal lands and transferred it to the Utah Fuel Company. Mr. Gaines. What is the Utah Fuel Company?

Book Description
Excerpt from Short Lectures Explanatory of Our Land Laws Necessity of some knowledge of the history of the land laws - Manner of holding land in England before the Conquest - Effect of the Conquest on the holding of land - Introduction of the Feudal System - Fundamental principle of the land laws - Tenure - History and description of tenures - Different classes of estates: Freeholds Copyholds - Leases for terms of years - Varieties of freehold estates fh-estate for life. The law relating to the land of this country cannot be rightly understood without some previous know ledge of its history. It is not alone that its subtle theories, fine distinctions, restrictions, forms, and terminology cannot be made clear without some refer ence to their origin; but the law itself is very ancient, many of its rules having come down to us from the days when the foundations of our jurisprudence were laid. Some of the commonest every-day dealings with land derive their validity from Acts of the Parliaments of Edward I. And decisions of the Judges of Edward IV., while the modern changes in the law have touched the ancient system so lightly that an acquaintance with it is necessary before the very changes can be understood.
