Excerpt from A Practical Treatise of the Law of Vendors and Purchasers of Estates If it be agreed that the purchaser shall take possession of the estate, and pay interest on the purchase-money from that time, and it afterwards appear that a long time must elapse before a title can be made, the purchaser will be entitled to rescind the agreement. But if the purchaser acquiesce in the delay until the contract is nearly carried into execution, he cannot then appropriate the purchase-money, and, by giving notice of that circumstance to the vendor, discharge himself from the payment of interest.

Excerpt from A Concise and Practical Treatise of the Law of Vendors and Purchasers of Estates After the lapse of half a century since the first publication of this work, I am about to send forth a Thirteenth Edition of it. Determined at my outset in life to write a book, I was delighted when I hit upon the subject now before the reader - the Law of Vendors and Purchasers. The title promised well, and many portions of the law had not previously been embodied in any treatise. Modern law treatises were indeed few at that period. When this work was announced for publication, nearly the universal opinion was that it would be a failure, as the subjects to be considered were too multifarious for one treatise. Nothing dismayed, I laboured diligently, and, with the aid of Lincoln's Inn Library, in which a considerable portion of the book was written - for my own shelves were but scantily furnished - I at length finished the work in its original shape. My courage then failed me The expense of publication was certain; and success, I thought, more than doubtful; and it was not without some difficulty that I could be persuaded to refrain from committing the manuscript to the flames, and to join with a bookseller in incurring the risk of publishing it at half profit and loss, as it is termed. As soon as the book was printed, another bookseller bought my interest in the Edition, and thus relieved me from my obligations.
