(a) As to exchanges see Dav. Prec., vol. ii., part i. Reference may be made to the enactment in 8 & 9 Vict. c. 106, s. 4, doing away with the mutual implied warranty of title, which was productive of great inconvenience in exchanges at common law. As to exchanges by the Commissioners under the General Enclosure Acts, which are extensively made use of, not only in cases where the parties are unable otherwise to effect a valid exchange, but also where they are so able but are desirous of saving the expense of the double investigation of title, see note to the next precedent, and Cooke's edition of the Acts. Recourse cannot, however, be had to the Acts where the inequality in value exceeds one-eighth.
