The Homes for Little Boys, Farningham and Swanley, Kent, maintain 500 boys of all denominations who are received in infancy, properly fed and clothed, given a sound education, taught a useful trade, and thereby thoroughly equipped for the Battle of Life.

APPOINTMENTS

Information intended for publication under the above heading should reach us not later than Wednesday evening in each week, as publication is otherwise delayed.

Mr. STUART JAMES BEVAN, K.C., has been elected a Bencher of the Middle Temple. Mr. Bevan was called in 1895, and took silk in 1919.

Mr. ALEXANDER MARTIN SULLIVAN, K.C.. has been elected to be a Bencher of the Middle Temple. Mr. Sullivan was called in 1899 and took silk in 1919.

Mr. HENRY HESSE JOHNSTON GOMPERTZ, puisne judge of Hong Kong, has been appointed to be Chief Justice of the Federated Malay States in succession to the late Sir Lionel Woodward. Gompertz was called by Lincoln's Inn in 1899.

Mr.

Mr. FIENNES CECIL ARTHUR BARRETT-LENNARD has been appointed to be Chief Justice of Jamaica. Mr. Barrett-Lennard was called by Lincoln's Inn in 1905, and was appointed to be a judge in East Africa in 1915. In 1920 he was made a Justice of the Supreme Courts of the Straits Settlements, Federated Malay States, and Johore.

(Q. 52.) INTESTACY-WIDOW OF INTESTATE-CHILDREN OF INTESTATE. To be effective this should be carried out by the deed, by which the real and personal property would be conveyed and assigned to the widow to hold during her widowhood. The ordinary form of voluntary settlement could be adapted, and it would have to be stamped with ad valorem duty under sect. 74 of the Finance (1909-10) Act 1910. JOHN BOYD.

(Q. 53.) CONVEYANCE CHARGE-TITLE.-It depends upon the nature of the charge. The following are authorities in point : Re Henson (99 L. T. Rep. 336; (1908) 2 Ch. 356); Re Cary and Lott (84 L. T. Rep. 859; (1901) 2 Ch. 463); Colyer v. Finch (5 H. L. Cas. 905; 26 L. Jour. 65); Chamberlain v. Chamberlain (1 Ch. Cas. 257). JOHN BOYD.

This subject is discussed in Key and Elphinstone's Conveyancing Precedents, 10th edit., vol. 1, p. 1124. The learned editors say that if the charge is in the words of the Act it is pretty clear that C. can sell free from the charge, because if the purchaser had to see that the purchase money was applied in payment of the charge he would have to see to the administration of the estate. G. O. S.

(Q. 54.) LAW OF PROPERTY ACT-POSITIVE COVENANTS.—Presumably sect. 79 of this Act does not alter the law of Austberry v. Corporation of Oldham (53 L. T. Rep. 543; 29 Ch. Div. 750). But this might have been made clearer : (see Guide to the New Property Statutes by the Editors of Law Notes, p. 149). This section only applies to covenants made after the 1st Jan. 1926 (Law of Property Act 1925, s. 79, sub-s. 3). G. O. S.

ANSWERS

(Q. 47.) ADMINISTRATRIX RENT DISTRAINT. - The landlord can distrain for a year's rent (or less) after it becomes due (Agriculture Holdings Act 1923, s. 34). No leave is necessary, the Rent Restrictions Acts not applying. If the rent is not by agreement payable in advance I see no way of securing future rent. JOHN BOYD.

It is difficult to see why an application to the court is necessary, unless the rateable value of the premises brings them within the Rent Acts: (Act of 1920, s. 6). The Courts (Emergency Powers) Acts under which an application to the court would be necessary expired on the 31st Aug. 1922: (War Emergency Laws (Continuance) Act 1920, s. 1, First Schedule). This of course assumes that the premises are situate in England. G. O. S.

(Q. 50.) TRUSTEE ACT 1925-ADMINISTRATION OF ESTATES ACT 1925. The husband can give a valid receipt for the purchase money of the land by virtue of sect. 27 (2) of the Law of Property Act 1925, as this section, after stating that the purchaser is not to be concerned with the trusts of the proceeds of sale, which are to be paid to two or more trustees, states that sub-sect. 2 of the section does not affect the right of a sole personal representative as such to give valid receipts for or direct the application of the proceeds of sale or other capital money aforesaid, &c. Sect. 33 of the Administration of Estates Act 1925 is only applicable on the death of a person intestate. H. H.

It is submitted that the husband can give a receipt for the purchase money under sect. 27, sub-sect. 2, of the Law of Property Act 1925. He sells the land as personal representative for payment of debts and death duties, and not as trustee in accordance with the terms of the will G. O. S.

(Q. 51.) OVERHEAD WIRES.-The presumption-which, however, may be rebutted-is that the soil of the street belongs to the adjoining property owners on each side up to the middle, the public merely having the right (dedicated by the owners) to pass over it. But local authorities have generally statutory powers to cause the removal of any projections into the street from buildings or otherwise (see the Towns Improvement Clauses Act 1847, s. 69, but it would appear to be necessary to show that the projection obstructed the passage along the street). The local authority should be asked what powers they have. JOHN BOYD.

The answer to this query depends upon whether the local authority have adopted Part II. of the Public Health Act 1925. Under sect. 25 of that Act no wires or other apparatus can be erected without the consent of the local authority. As to the mode of adoption see sect. 5. Apart from that Act I do not think a local authority can prevent the erection of aerials, but they may be. able to prevent the erection of electric light wires. See the Electricity (Supply) Acts 1919 and 1922. G. O. S.

THE NEW CONVEYANCING JOINT TENANCY.-Since writing last week I have had the privilege of reading Sir Benjamin Cherry's second lecture and his answers to the various queries put to him. These not only show the extra trouble and expense to which a surviving joint tenant will be put in order to make a title, as compared with the existing state of affairs, but, if I may be allowed to say so, they illustrate the absurdity of the new situation. Sir Benjamin states in answer to Mr. Milliken's question (b), that if one tenant in common, A., releases his interest to his co-trustee and co-beneficial owner, B, the release will show that B. is absolutely entitled, and presumably he can afterwards make a good title alone. The very fact that one trustee conveys or releases to his co-trustee is open to objection apart from the fact that an equitable interest seems to be brought on the title. The answer to Mr. Milliken's next question (if I rightly understand it) is that if A. bequeaths his interest to B. and then dies, B. cannot make a good title by himself as surviving trustee, and the bequest should not be brought on the title, but B. can convey the land to himself and show by recitals that the trust has ceased. How he can do this to a purchaser's satisfaction without bringing the will on the title I am at a loss to understand. Moreover, who would accept such a recital unless it was twenty years old? I now turn to the answer to Mr. Howey's question and find that I was right in my contention last week that a surviving joint tenant cannot sell alone, but must appoint another trustee to act with him in order to give a valid receipt. The position, therefore, appears to be this: A surviving joint tenant can vest the land in himself absolutely and beneficially, but if he wishes to sell it he must first appoint another trustee ! DERBEIAN.
