THIS INDENTURE, made, &c., between A. B., of, &c.

(a) The Satisfied Terms Act, 8 & 9 Vict. c. 112 (as to which sec supra, p. 283, n. (a)), has rendered the assignment of attendant terms in freehold tenements and hereditaments, whether corporeal or incorporeal, and in all such customary land as will pass by deed, or deed and admittance, and not by surrender, in this country impossible; but the Act does not apply to the colonies, or to copyholds, or to lands passing by deed and surrender and admittance, nor, apparently, to customary hereditaments which are not land, and which pass by deed, or deed and admittance, nor to leaseholds where a term is created by sub-demise: see Davidson's Conc. Prec. 80, 5th ed.; and therefore, although the cases in which they will be required are rare, it has been thought right to include in this collection two Precedents of the assignment of such terms.

The law with regard to attendant terms and the protection they afford is stated Sugd., p. 496; Dart, p. 329.

to A. B., as by the deed of even date have been granted to uses in favour of G. H.; but the practice of taking the assignment in the form in the text was established by such long usage that it is thought right to adhere to it in the present work.

(a) In the Precedent, the skeleton of which is given in the text, it appears that both the terms had become vested in one trustee at the date of the assignment. If it happen that the terms are in different trustees, the frame of the recitals will not be materially different; they will commence with the creation of the terms in the order of date, and then pass in the usual way to those conveyances of the respective reversions on which the terms were last assigned to attend, and to the assignments themselves; and afterwards trace the devolution of the fee in the usual manner. There will be distinct witnessing parts for each term, each having its own habendum referring to the subsequent declaration of trust, and each being
