Excerpt from The Law Relating to Land Purchase in Ireland: Being the Irish Land Acts, 1903& 1904, Together With the Rules and Forms Relating to Land Purchase in Ireland

In the following pages an attempt has been made to collect together the information necessary for carrying out sales under ac the Irish Land Act, 1903. With this object in view, an Appendix g=of Statutes has been prepared, comprising the most important- sections of all the Land Purchase Acts prior to the Act of 1903 and also containing sections of other Statutes which have constantly to be referred to in connection with Land Purchase. It is hoped that the result will be to place in the hands of the practitioner a volume in which he will find the greater part of the law upon the subject.

I have endeavoured, in dealing with this complicated matter, to express myself in as simple and untechnical language as possible, and so to produce a book which will be intelligible, not only to lawyers, but also to landlords, landagents, and the numerous other persons who are so vitally 35 concerned in the results of the recent legislation. With this co aim before me I have entered into what, no doubt, will appear to many, unnecessary details, but I trust that those who are ignorant of legal principles will find these details of some assistance.

The book was for the most part written in the years 1903 and 1904, and the printing was commenced in February 1905, but the publication of the work was held over in the hopes that the Land Commission Rules, which have been so long expected, would have been issued. These hopes were not fulfilled, and, as there appears to be no immediate prospect of the Rules being published, it has been thought better to print the Rules of March 1897, and to bring out the volume without further delay.
