Abstract:
The present system sacrifices
the purchaser and impedes transfers to an unreasonable extent.
That proposed by this Report would protect the purchaser at
the expense of all other persons, and would shake public confidence
in the security of settlements and other derivative interests. I propose
a middle course, which would give reasonable security to all
parties, and would greatly simplify and facilitate sales, but would
not, I admit, make a sale of land as simple as a sale of stock,
which is not in my opinion practicable under existing circumstances.
