Neuware - 'The Confirmation of Executors in Scotland According to the Practice in the Commissariot of Edinburgh' is a comprehensive legal treatise dedicated to the procedural and substantive laws governing the administration of estates in Scotland. Authored by James G. Currie, this work serves as a foundational guide for understanding the confirmation process-the Scottish equivalent of probate-whereby executors are legally recognized to manage a deceased person's assets.The text provides a meticulous analysis of the practices established within the Commissariot of Edinburgh, offering clarity on the legal requirements for both testate and intestate succession. It details the necessary steps for the appointment of executors, the preparation of inventories, and the navigation of the judicial system to ensure the lawful distribution of property and the settlement of debts. By focusing on the practical application of law, Currie provides invaluable insights into the administrative frameworks that governed Scottish inheritance during the early twentieth century.As an authoritative reference, 'The Confirmation of Executors in Scotland According to the Practice in the Commissariot of Edinburgh' is an essential resource for legal historians, practitioners, and scholars interested in the evolution of Scottish civil law.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. [2nd ed]; 1 p. l., xv, clxvi, 425, 13 p.23 cm. ; LCCN 06045599 ; OCLC 10468883 ; Preface dated: 1832; a reprint of Pearson's edition of 1832 ; "Dr. Currie's Life contained invaluable materials. The poet's auto-biographical letter to Dr. Moore,- indeed the whole of his letters, the letters of his brother Gilbert, of Professor Dugald Stewart, of Mr. Murdoch and of Mr. Syme, and the other contributors, are invaluable materials. They form truly the very backbone of the poet's life . It was not until 1827 that a historian, worthy of the poet, appeared in the person of Mr. John Lockhart, the son-in-law of Sir Walter Scott, and. Editor of the London Quarterly Review. He in that year published a Life of Burns, both in the separate form, and as a part of that excellent repertory known by the title of Constables Miscellany. It is only necessary to read Mr. Lockhart's Life of Burns, to be satisfied of his qualifications for the task, and that he has succeeded in putting them, after an upright and conscientious manner, to the proper use.The reader will find here all that is contained in Dr. Currie's edition of 1800, with the pieces brought to light by all the respectable authors who have since written or published of Burns. The following general heads will show the nature and extent of the present work. 1. The Life by Lockhart. 2. The Poems, as published in the Kilmarnock and first Edinburgh edition, with the poet's own prefaces to these editions, and also as published in Dr. Currie's edition of 1800; having superadded the pieces since brought forward by Walker, Irving, Morison, Paul, and Cromek. 3. Essay (by Dr. Currie), on Scottish Poetry, including the Poetry of Burns. 4. Select Scottish Songs not Burns's, upwards of 200 in number, and many of them having his Annotations, Historical and Critical, prefixed. 5. Burns's Songs, collected from Johnson's Musical Museum, the larger work of Thomson, and from the publications of Cromek, Cunningham, and Chalmers, nearly 200 in number. 6. The Correspondence, including all the Letters published by Dr. Currie, besides a number subsequently recovered, published by Cromek and others. The whole forming the best picture of the man and the poet, and the only complete edition of his writings, in one work, hitherto offered to the public. Besides a portrait of the poet, executed by an able artist, long familiar with the original picture by Nasmyth, there is also here presented, (an entire novelty), a fac-simile of the poet's handwriting. It was at one time matter of surprise that the Ploughman should have been a man of genius and a poet. If any such curious persons still exist, they will of course be likewise surprised to find that he was so good a penman." ; foxing ; full leather ; signature of H[enry]. S.
