Synopsis

An Analysis: Arranged To Serve Also As A Compendious Digested Index Of Mr. Fearne's Essay On Contingent Remainders And Executory Devises, And Of Mr. Butler's Notes by Richard Holmes Coote is a 1814 legal reference work that offers a structured analysis and digest of Fearne's Essay on Contingent Remainders and Executory Devises, together with Mr. Butler's marginal notes. The book organizes and clarifies complex estate and property-law topics through a systematic Table of Heads, covering abeyance, accumulation, acts of Parliament, and many other common-law and equity concepts. It summarizes principles governing contingent remainders, executory devises, and related doctrines such as the Rule in Shelley’s Case, the rights of entry, merger, and vesting, and the interplay between common-law and equity in trusts and uses. The Preface explains the editorial aim of compressing abstruse doctrine into a compendious index, while the body provides extensive discussion of each topic, citing leading authorities and cases of the period. The result is a foundational reference for students and practitioners navigating early 19th-century English property law.
