MASTER OF THE ROLLS, f l^b Maxh. is (bg ptmmion) Jtldtattit WITH SENTIMENTS OF GREAT RESPECT BY THE AUTHOR. PEEFACE. It is intended in this work to place before the Profession, in as concise a form as the nature of the subject permits, the various principles which guide Courts of Equity in dealing with what is probably the most important branch of their jurisprudence. In adopting the title I have chosen, I am aware that, scientifically speaking, the book is not a digest in the sense in which that term is used by jurists; but it is hoped that by the process of condensation, and by the elimination of matters of comment and criticism, the term may not be found inappropriate. A perfect digest in the sense referred to, on so extensive a subject, would be a work embracing so large an area, and involving matters of detail so complex and diverse in character, that the object of this book, as stated above, would in a, great measure be defeated by seeking to supply such a work. In collecting the materials required, I have been careful to examine and collate the most important decisions to be found in the Reports on the several parts of the subject, and to record what I conceive to he the short results of the authorities, referring, however, only to those which in my Vlll PREFACE. opinion best illustrate those results. I am, of course, much indebted to the numerous and excellent text-books which deal with the subject of Trusts ; but I have used them rather as guides to the Reports than as embodying the matter with which I have dealt, and I have in every case formed, and I trust accurately formed, my own conclusions throughout this work. By the aid of a very full Index I hope to have made the book easy of reference to the practitioner. I am indebted to Mr. C. J. Cooper, of Lincoln's Inn, for the references in the Table of Cases to the contemporaneous serial Reports. H. G. 4, New Squaeb, Lincoln's Inn, December, 1878. TABLE OF CONTENTS. Preface .

OF VESTING THE LEGAL ESTATE IN THE TRUSTEE. l.—By Will. (1.) In devises of freeholds, the analogy of the Statute Devises of of Uses, as an index of the intention of the testator, will coifstrvied he followed, so as to vest a sufHcient portion of the legal by analogy estate in him to whom the use is limited. The ground of ^f uses? ° this rule is "that the will shews an intention that the same rules which the Statute of Uses made applicable to settle- ments of real estate should be applied to the gifts or devises by will": Baher v. White, 20 Eq. 171. (2.) In devises of copyholds, which are not affected by Devises of the Statute of Uses, the analogy above referred to fails, ™^^ ° ^' and thus a devise of copyholds to A. upon trust for, or to the use of, or to transfer to B. vests the legal estate in A. : Baher v. White, 20 Eq. 166 ; Allen v. Bewsey, 7 Ch. D. 453, 458 ; Doe v. Nicholls, 1 B. & C. 336 ; and see Doe v. Barthrop, 5 Taunt. 382. (3.) A trust of leaseholds which are also not within the Leaseholds Statute, is not executed by it, and the term will pass to gimUariTto the trustee in the same way as copyholds, although no copyholds, duty or office is thrown upon him requiring that he should <■ VESTING THE LEGAL ESTATE IN THE TRUSTEE. have the legal ownership : 2 Jarm. Wills, 285 ; Stevenson V. Mayor of Liverpool, L. R. 10 Q. B. 81 ; Baker v. White, 20 Eq. 166. Extent of But if the purposes of the trust render it unnecessary by^trus- ^° ^^^^ ^he trustees should take the whole term, e. g., a direc- tees. tion to executors (even without a direct bequest to them) to apply the rents during a minority or a life, they will have the legal estate only until the infant attains 21, or until the life drops : 2 Jarm. Wills, 285, 286. ; Stevenson V. Mayor of Liverpool, supra. Legalestate But a devise to trustees (with or without words of in- duties to heritance) to the use of, or upon trust for another, will not be per- 'be construed in any case according to the analogy of the Statute of Uses, or vest the legal estate in the trustees unless they have some duty to perform, subject to which others are to have the benefit of the estate : Wright v.

Quantum of Estate taken. " Where any real estate (other than or not being a presentation to a church) shall be devised to any trustee or executor, such devise shall be construed to pass the fee simple or other the whole estate or interest which the testator had power to dispose of by will in such real estate, unless a definite term of years, absolute or deter- minable, or an estate of freehold, shall thereby be given to him expressly or by implication :" Wills Act, 1 Vict, c. 26, s. 30. " Where any real estate shall be devised to a trustee without any express limitation of the estate to be taken by such trustee, and the beneficial interest in such real estate, or in the surplus rents and profits thereof, shall not be given to any person for life, or such beneficial interest shall be given to any person for life, but the purposes of the trust may continue beyond the life of such person, such devise shall be construed to vest in such trustee the fee simple, or other the whole legal estate which the testator had power to dispose of by will in such real estate, and not an estate determinable when the pur- poses of the trust shall be satisfied:" ibid. s. 31. A devise to trustees and their heirs upon trusts to per- form certain duties and subject thereto upon trust for a tenant for life, with a devise over in the form of a lea-al devise in tail or in fee, is primd facie a devise of the legal estate in fee to the trustees : Collier v. Walters, 17 Eq. 252. DEVISES WHICH PASS FEE SIMPLE. 5 In a devise for purposes which are to last only for a 'Heirs' certain time, the use of the word ' heirs ' will not give necessarily a fee, and the devise will be cut down to the time neces- 1"'^^ ^ lee. sary for the purposes : Doe v. Bavies, 1 Q. B. 438 ; Shaw V. Weigh, 1 Eq. Ca. Abr. 185 ; Bagshaw v. Spencer, 1 Ves. Sen. 142. In a devise for purposes which by their nature extend Indefinite over an indefinite time, the fee will not be cut down : requ^T'tlie Collier v. Walters, 17 Eq. 252; Poad v. Watson, 6 E. & B. f^e. 606. If the words are such as pass a fee it lies upon those Onus on who contend for a less estate to point out such less gartrus-" estate on the face of the will : Collier v. Walters, supra; tees take Baker v. White, 20 Eq. 174 ; and see s. 30 of 1 Vict. c. 26, thaVa fee. supra.

Where the power of sale is not confined to so much as is sufficient to pay the debts, and there is no devise over of the unsold part, the trustees retain the fee they took in order to sell : Doe v. Edlin, 4 A. & E. 582 ; Gihson v. Bott, 7 Ves. 95. In a devise to trustees and their heirs with a power to lease for undefined periods, e.g., "for any term they should think proper" {Doe v.

Or, in such a devise with a power of leasing, with the duty of paying taxes and keeping premises in repair : White. V. Parker, 1 Bing. N. C. 573. In Collier v. Walters, 17 Eq. 252, Jessel, M. R., cited Doe V. Willan as an express authority that where there is an indefinite power of leasing the trustees take an estate and not merely a leasing power, and that that estate, being an indefinite one, must be a fee in order to allow a leasehold interest to be carved out of it. If this is so, the cases of Ackland v. Lutley, 9 A. & E. 879, 1 Per. & D. 636, &nd Ackland v. Pring, 2 M. & Gr. 937, 3 Scott, N. R. 297, must be treated as decided on questionable grounds ; but such cases may now be taken as controlled by ss. SO and 31 of the Wills Act, for an indefinite power may, of course, extend beyond the life of a tenant for life. Or, where there is a power to the trustees to take sur- renders of leases : Blagrave v. Blagrave, 4 Ex. 550. Or, to cut timber : Collier v. Walters, supra.

The fee taken by the trustees for the purpose of a power of sale may be subject to a prior legal life estate: Doe V. Bolton, 11 A. & E. 188. Where a power of leasing is restricted to the time when the trust ceases, and nothing else remains to be done, the legal estate ceases with it : Doe v. Cafe, 7 Exch. 675. If an estate pur autre vie is expressly given, the Court does not cut it down to a mere chattel interest, though the latter might be sufficient for the purposes of the trust : Wright v. Pearson, 1 Ed. 123. A devise to trustees and their heirs in trust for main- tenance during a minority and then to the use of the minor, gives the trustees a term until the minor attains 21 : Goodtitle v.

So they must take the fee where the tenant for life has a power of appointment, by virtue of which she might introduce contingent remainders which might have been defeated without such estate being vested in the trustees : Venables v. Morris, 7 T. E. 342 ; Bochfort v. Fitzmaurice, 2 Dr. & W. 1. A term given to different trustees from those to whom Equitable the fee simple is in words limited by the deed may take effect as an equitable term, and so not be inconsistent with the fee so given : Lewis v.

Whenever a person is appointed a trustee or executor upon trust, it is advisable for him, if he does not intend to act as such, to do some act to evidence such intention. As to the mode of disclaimer : — A deed of disclaimer is the most effectual mode of renun- ciation : Stacey v. Mph, 1 M. & K. 199 ; Adamis v. Taun- ton, 5 Mad. 435 ; Townson v. Tickell, 3 B. & A. 31. But a release or conveyance to the co-trustees will, if its essence be disclaimer, be sufficient : Nicloson v. Words- worth, 2 Sw. 365 ; but see Crewe v. Biclcen, 4 Ves. 97, in which it was held that the trust remained, though the estate was conveyed away. A disclaimer at the bar of the Court is good for the pur- pose of giving jurisdiction to appoint a new trustee : Foster v. Dawber, 1 Dr. & Sm. 172 ; but see Re Ellison, 2 Jur. N. S. 62. A mere parol disclaimer may be sufficient : Bingham, v. Clanmorris, 2 Moll. 253 ; Toiunson v. Tickell, 3 B. & A. 39. In the argument in Doe v. Harris, 16 M. & W. 517, will be found the law on the now obsolete doctrine that disclaimer must be by matter of record and not by matters in pais : also that parol disclaimer was incapable of operat- ing upon a use. Byconduct. The conduct of a trustee in abstaining from interference By release or convey- ance. At the bar. By parol. DISCLAIMER OF THE TRUST. 11 or otherwise will in a proper case be taken to amount to disclaimer : White v. McBermott, I. R. 7 C L. 1 ; Stacey V. Elph, 1 M. & K. 195. The renunciation of probate as to personal estate, Renounc- coupled with not acting for three years in the trusts of the }^^^^_ real estate, has been treated as conclusive evidence of dis- claimer : Roberts v. Gordon, 6 Ch. D. 531. Delay in disclaiming will not necessarily be construed Effect of into acceptance : Nohle v. Meymott, 14 Eea. 471 ; but see "^^'^y- Re JJniacke, 1 .J. & L. 1 ; Re Needham, 1 J. & L. 36. Where a trust is imposed upon a person without his Counsel's sanction he is entitled to the costs of consulting counsel as "P^"''™- to any disclaimer he is called upon to make : Re Tryon, 7 Bea. 496. After the institution of an action a trustee desiring to Disclaimer disclaim is in the position of an ordinary defendant dis- ^^^j^j^J claiming an interest, and will have his costs between party tee. and party only : Norway v. Norway, 2 M. & K. 278 ; Bray V. West, 9 Sim. 429 ; Heap v. Jones, 5 W. R. 106 ; Bul- keley v. Eglinton, 1 Jur. N. S. 994. [Sherratt v.

A person who simply refuses to do any act in the trust Suit caused will be entitled to the costs of a suit to appoint new trustees : ^^ refusal Legg v. Machrell, 2 D. F. & J. 551. As to the effect of disclaimer : — Effect of disclaimer. A disclaimer does not affect the estate of the other vestses- trustees, but vests it in them exclusively : Small v. Mar- tate in wood, 9 B. & C. 308 ; Townson v. Tickell, 3 B. & A. 31 ; trustees, Browell v.

Where two or more persons are appointed trustees by name, or merely as " trustees," and any of them disclaim, powers of sale, of consent to marriage, &c., may be exer- cised by those who do not : Hawkins v. Kemp, 3 East, 410, 437; Sari Granville v. McNeile, 7 Ha. 156 ; Adams V. Taunton, 5 Mad. 435 ; Cooke v. Crawford, 13 Sim. 96 ; Clarke v. Parker, 19 Ves. 1, 15 ; Boyce v. Corbally, LI. & G. t. Plunk. 102 ; Worthington v. JEvans, 1 S. & S. 165 ; White v. McDermott, I. R. 7 C. L. 1. If all the executors and trustees renounce, a discre- tionary power of sale for the purpose of distributing the personalty may be exercised by the administrator cum test, annexo, though the debts have been long since paid and he has assented to the bequests in the will : Wyman V. Carter, 12 Eq. 309. The legal estate in freeholds vests in the settlor's heir : Roberts v. Gordon, 6 Ch. D. 535. The executor of an executor cannot refuse to act in the administration of the estate of which the latter was executor : Brooke v. Haymes, 6 Eq. 25 ; see 1 Wms. Exors., 6th ed. 265. Trustees under a covenant cannot sue upon the cove- nant during the life of one of them who has disclaimed : Wetherell v. Langston, 1 Exch. 634. II. — Of A cceptance. Primd facie a man is presumed to assent to a devise or grant to him, and upon a similar principle a trustee is deemed to have accepted the trust until the contrary is proved : Townson v. Tickell, 3 B. & A. 31. By signing Acceptance is shown by signature of the trust deed : deed.™^ Montford V. Cadogan, 19 Ves. 637. Proof of Proof of actual execution coram testibus is not neces- sary : Buckeridge v. Glasse, Cr. & Ph. 131. ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRUST. 13 An executor upon trust accepts the trust by proving the ^y proving ■will: Mucklow v. Fuller, Jac. 198 ; Booth v. Booth, 1 Bea. 125 ; and see Williams v. Nixon, 2 Bea. 472 ; Styles v. Guy, 1 Macn. & G. 431. And the rule is the same where the trusts refer to real estate : Ward v. Butler, 2 Moll. 533. An executor of an executor cannot accept the adminis- Acceptance tration of his own testator's assets without assuming that ^Jf^r,?*'"^ of the original testator's assets : Brooke v. ffaymes, 6 Eq. tor ; 25 ; Williams' Executors, 276. And a trustee under two trusts in the same settlement by trustee cannot accept one and repudiate the other : Urch v. trusts ^" Wallcer, 3 M. & Or. 702; but see Wellesley v. Withers, 4 E. & B. 750. Probably the devisee of all the trust estates of a trustee of two distinct settlements can accept one set of trusts and disclaim the other : Lewin, 181. An executor proved to have assented to a legacy to be By assent held on trust becomes an express trustee : Dix v. Burford, ig^^g ™^ 19 Bea. 409 ; especially after the appropriation of the legacy : Byrchall v. Bradford, 6 Madd. 240 ; Phillipo v. Munnings, 2 M. & Cr. 309 ; Exp. Dover, 5 Sim. 500. Although a trustee have not executed the deed, if he Presump- have had notice of the trust, and has not objected at the anre*°°^^ ' time, he will not be allowed at a subsequent time to say through that he never assented to the conveyance : Wise v. Wise, 2 J. & L. 403, 412. A settlor may expressly provide that the deed shall be Provision void unless all the trustees execute ; otherwise the pro- execution, perty will pass to those who assent : Small v. Marwood, 9 B. & C. 307. Acceptance may be presumed from mere lapse of time Acqui- without any act of disclaimer : Re UniacJce, 1 J. & L. 1 ; ®^''™''®- Be Needham, ibid. 34 ; Doe v.

Walker; 3 M. & C. 702 ; and see Lowry v. Fulton, 9 Sim. 115. But if he acts merely as agent for the trustees, himself not having proved the will or acted as trustee, no accept- ance will be presumed : Lowry v. Fulton, sv,pra; Stacey V. Mph, 1 M. & K. 198. A person named a trustee, but who does not execute the deed, is not taken to have accepted the trust merely because the deed has been delivered to him for safe cus- tody : Evans v. John, 4 Bea. 36. As to how far a trustee will be bound by recitals in the trust deed : Fenwicic v. Greenwell, 10 Bea. 412 ; Gore V. Botuser, 3 Sm. & G. 6 ; Westmoreland v. Hol- land, W. N. 1871, 130 ; Brooke v. Haymes, 6 Eq. 25. An imperfectly appointed trustee accepting the trust is held to be a trustee de facto or de son tort : Pearce v. Pearce, 22 Bea. 248 ; Hennessy v. Bray, 33 Bea. 102 ; or even in the case of a general devisee of real estate not sub- ject to a legacy, so that trust estates do not pass (see p. 21, post), the devisee, if he act in the execution of the trusts, becomes an express trustee : RacMiam v. Siddall, 1 Macn. & G. 607 ; Life Association of Scotland v. Siddal, 3 D. F. & J. 58. The effect of acceptance, however evidenced, is to make the trustee subject to all the consequences and duties connected with that office : Montford v. Cadogan, 19 Ves. 637. Since the 32 & 33 Vict. c. 46, it has becojne unim- portant to distinguish between the cases in which a deceased trustee liable for breach of trust has executed or not a deed or covenant which -would constitute a specialty debt, and not a simple contract debt. [For the former law upon this point, see Lewin, 182 — 184.] CHAPTEE III. OF THE DUTY OF TRUSTEES TO ACT JOINTLY. Trustees must in general act, or will be taken to have Trustees acted, jointly in all matters connected with the trust : Lee jointly; V. Sankey, 15 Eq. 204 ; Messeena v. Carr, 9 Eq. 260. All the trustees must therefore join — In receiving and giving receipts for the trust fund : Lee inreceiving ° ^ ^ ^ money, V. Sankey, 15 Eq. 20'1. In advancing money on securities : Swale v.

But the cestui que trust should join in the proof : see Exp. Gray, 4 D. & C. 778, 2 M. & A. 283 ; Exp. Dubois, 1 Cox, 310 ; Exp. Battier, Buck, 426. Should not sever de- fence : costs in such case. Trustees should not sever in defending actions to which they are defendants, except under special circumstances ; and if they do, one set of costs only will be allowed, the appointment being left to the Taxing Master : Gaunt v.

If there is a case for severance, the whole costs are paid to the innocent trustee : Webb v. Webb, 16 Sim. 55.

Where trustees live far from one another so that they cannot confer as to their defence: Wiles v. Cooper, 9 Bea. 294, and cases cited in note, p. 299. And generally on this point, see Gaunt v.

It follows that as executors in trust are each entitled to receive assets, the one who does not is liable only for misapplication if he knew of the fraud and acquiesced in it ; not if he were innocently ignorant of it : Williams v. Nixon, supra ; Booth v. Booth, 1 Bea. 125 ; and see further as to the liability of executors : Sadler v. Hobhs, 2 B. C. C. 114 ; Scurfield v. Howes, 3 B. C. C. 91 ; Chambers v. Minchin, 7 Ves. 185 ; Joy v. Campbell, 1 Sch. & L. 341 ; JDavis V. Spurting, 1 E. & M. 66. The absence abroad of an authorised agent of the trus- tees does not excuse them from accounting, unless they can show that the possession of the vouchers by the agent was not by their wilful neglect or default : Turner v. Corney, 5 Bea. 515. Trustees renouncing, and conveying to a devisee or stranger who does not perform the trusts, remain liable : Hardwick v. Mynd, 1 Anst. 110 ; and see Burt v. Dennet, 2 B. C. C. 225 ; Bradwell v. Catchpole, 3 Swans. 78, n. ; Doyle V. Blake, 2 Sch. & L. 239. Trustees should not commit to their solicitor the duty of receiving trust-money, for he cannot give a valid receipt for it: Anon. 12 Mod. 560; Ghost v. Waller, 9 Bea. 497. And on a sale of trust property, a solicitor cannot give a receipt for the purchase-money without the written authority of the trustees : Viney v. Chaplin, 2 D. & J. 468, 482 ; Robertson v.

Walker, 14 Bea. 556. Trusts of leaseholds given to trustees, their executors, and administrators, cannot be exercised by a person to whom the trustee bequeaths his trust estates, although such person, with another executor, be also appointed executor : Re Burtt, 1 Drew, 319. The survivor of two persons appointed trustees and exe- cutors without a limitation of any estate to them, cannot effectually devise the trust : Mortimer v. Ireland, 11 Jur. 721 ; 16 L. J. Ch. 416. Devise not hreach of trust. A devise of trust estates is not a breach of trust on the part of the devisor ; though if the heir of the devisor is a proper person to perform the trust, and not under dis- ability, such a devise is not advisable : Titley v.

As the Statute requires the trust to be only manifested Proof of and proved by writing, any signed document clearly con- ^''^^^"t;* taining the terms of the trust will be sufficient to satisfy the Statute, though such document be not contempora- neous with the actual creation or declaration of trust : Forster v.

T. N. S. 443. CHAPTER VII. OF VOLUNTARY TRUSTS BY TRANSFER OR DECLARATION. In order to make a voluntary settlement valid and Modes of effectual the settlor must have done everything, which p^j^ec"^ according to the nature of the property, was necessary to voluntary' be done in order to transfer the property and render the settlement binding upon him. He may do this by actu- ally transferring the property to the persons for whom he intends to provide, and the provision will then be effectual or it will be equally effectual if he trahsfers the property to a trustee for the purposes of the settlement, or declares that he holds it in trust for those purposes ; and if the property be personal, the trust may be declared either in writing or by parol (see ante, p. 25) ; but in order to render the settlement binding, one or other of the above modes must be resorted to ; for there is no equity to perfect an imperfect gift : Milroy v. Lord, 4 D. F. & J. 274 ; Warriner v. Rogers, 16 Eq. 340 ; Richards v. Del- bridge, 18 Eq. 11; Heartley v. Nicholson, 19 Eq. 233; and see note to Ellison v. Ellison, 1 W. & T. L. C. Eq. 282, et seq. Richardson v. Richardson, 3 Eq. 686, and Morgan V. Malleson, 10 Eq. 475, are disapproved in the above cases. If the settlement is intended to be effectuated by one Imperfect of the modes above referred to, the Court will not give aettlem'^^t effect to it by applying another of those modes. If it is not con- intended to take effect by transfer, the Court will not declaration hold the intended transfer to operate as a declaration of "* *'^"^*- trust, " for then every imperfect instrument would be made effectual by being converted into a perfect trust " : 28 VOLUNTARY TRUSTS — DECLARATIONS OF TRUST. Milroy v. Lord, supra ; followed in Warriner v. Rogers, Richards v. Delhridge, and Heartley v. Nicholson, supra. Mode of making complete legal trans- fer. Voluntai7 settlement of equit- able estate. Trust of equitable reversion. Of interest under agreement for lease. Notice. Communi- cation to cestui que trust. Acceptance by original trustees of new trust. In accordance with the doctrines stated above it is necessary in each case to consider by what means a com- plete legal transfer may be made, as to which see Parnell V. Hingston, 3 Sm. & G. 347 ; and May on Fraudulent Conveyances, p. 380, et seq.; Byles on Bills, 5th ed. 1603 ; and see Wheatley v. Purr, I Keen, 551 ; Stapleton v. Stapleton, 14 Sim. 180 ; Moore v. Barton, 4 De G. & Sm. 517; Gee v. Liddell, 35 Bea. 621, in which voluntary trusts were under the circumstances considered, by the complete- ness of the transactions, to have been established. It is now decided that a voluntary settlement of the equitable estate is effectual as giving a right to the as- signee to enforce it by obtaining the legal estate from the original trustees : Kekewich v. Manning, 1 D. M. & G. 187 ; Sloane v. Gadogan, Sugd. V. & P. App. 26, 9th ed. ; Gilbert V. Overton, 2 H. & M. 110 ; Tierney v. Wood, 19 Bea. 330 ; Kronheim v. Johnson, 7 C. D. 60. A trust may be declared of an equitable reversionary interest : Sloane v. Gadogan, Sugd. V. & P. App. 26, 9th ed. Or of the lessee's interest under an agreement for a lease to be granted under a building agreement, though he may not be entitled to a lease at the date of the settle- ment : Gilbert v. Overton, 2 H. & M. 110. The title of the volunteers is complete without notice : Fortescue v. Barnett, 3 M. & K. 36 ; Pearson v. Amicable Assurance Off., 27 Bea. 229 ; Justice v. Wynne, 12 Ir. Ch. R. 299. It is not necessai-y to the binding effect of the trust that it should be communicated to or accepted by the volunteer : Re Way, 2 D. J. & Sm. 365 ; see Lambe v. Ortou, 1 Dr. & Sm. 125 ; Tate v. Leithead, Kay, 658. If the owner of the equitable estate directs his trustees to hold for others than himself, and the trustees accept such new trusts, and act upon them, the volunteers' title IMPERFECT VOLUNTARY ASSIGNMENTS. 29 is good : Rycroft v. Christy, 3 Bea. 238 ; McFadden v. Jenkyns, 1 Ha. 458, 1 Ph. 153.

"'^'^*- So an indorsement on a lease of the words, " This deed Indorse- and all thereto belonging I give, &c.," and signed, was held lease, not to pass the leasehold and stock-in-trade, as the intend- ing donor had not absolutely parted with his interest or effectually changed his right and put the property out of his power : Richards v. Belbridge, 18 Eq. 11. "Where a cheque was given to one in trust for another. Cheque, with a verbal direction that the amount was to be in trust instead of a legacy given by will to the proposed cestui que trust, the declaration was held to be inoperative : Hughes v.

Where a paper was put into a box containing title deeds, the key being retained by the owner, the property affected to be passed by the document was held not to be impressed with any sufficient trust : Warriner v. Rogers, 16 Eq. 353. A deed poll professing to be a complete gift of land by a husband to his wife and not a declaration of trust, is not supported as a declaration of trust : Fi^ice v. Price, 14 Bea. 598. The interest under a mortgage deed cannot be trans- ferred by the mortgagee to a volunteer without a transfer of the mortgaged property : Woodford v. Gharnley, 28 Bea. 96. So long as the trusts are not specifically and finally indicated, though a legal conveyance or assignment may have been executed, the gift is revocable : Re Sykes, 2 J. & H. 415. A volunteer has no equity to enforce a mere voluntary promise to assign against the assets of the person who made the promise : Marler v. Tommas, 17 Eq. 8, 13. A voluntary covenant to transfer stock is a mere imper- fect gift which equity will not assist : Ellison v. Ellison, 6 Ves. 656, 662 ; Ward v. Audland, 8 Sim. 571, 576. So is a voluntary covenant to transfer shares : Dillon v. Cop- pin, 4 M. & Cr. 647, 671 ; and see Exp. Pye, Exp, Dubost, 18 Ves. 149 ; Payne v. Mortimer, 4 D. & J. 447 ; Dill- wyn V. Llewelyn, 4 D.

But there must be a clear declaration of intention to become an accounting party as a trustee : Bipple v. Corles, 11 Ha. 183. A mere parol declaration, therefore, that the owner will distribute property among others, or a mere promise to divide the property, without declaring that he will hold in trust for them is insufficient : ibid. And the Court will not act on mere loose conversations the accuracy of which cannot be distinctly proved -.Paterson V. Murphy, 11 Ha. 92 ; Peckham v. Taylor, 31 Bea. 2.50. If the settlor shews no intention of keeping a control Ketaining over the settled property otherwise than as a trustee for °°g'™J.Q. the objects of his bounty, the trust will be effectual : Exp. perty sub- Pye, 18 Ves. 140 ; Wheatley v.

A provision allowing the settlor to draw on funds sub- ' ject to the trust, or one declaring the property to be subject to the order of his executors, was construed as being intended only as a means for making the property available for the beneficiaries : Vandenberg v. Palmer, supra. * u VOLUNTAEY TEUSTS — DEOLAEATIONS OF TRUST. Informal testament- ary gift no trust. Death of settlor hefore trust per- fected. Effect of power of attorney. After death of donor. Collateral security. Settlor retaining deed. But where no communication of the trust had been made, and there was no antecedent agreement or promise, an intention was inferred that no trust was to be created to take effect until after the settlor's death ; and as he retained the dominion of the property, the trust was held to be altogether negatived : Hughes v. Stubbs, 1 Ha. 476 ; Smith V. Warde, 15 Sim. 56 ; but see Bentley v. Mackay, 15 Bea. 12. If the gift is of an informal testamentary character not amounting to a donatio mortis causa (as to which see Ward V. Ttorner, 1 W. & T. L. C. p. 983 et seq.), the Court will not give effect to it by construing it as a declaration of trust : Warrjner v. Rogers, 16 Eq. 353 ; see Re Mills, 7 W. E. 372 ; Johnson v. Ball, 5 De G. & Srn. 85. A mere memorandum of intention "to leave at my death " cannot be treated as a declaration of trust : Re Glover, 2 J. & H. 186. Even if a perfect voluntary settlement is in course of being prepared, it will be void if the settlor dies before actual completion : Coningham v. Plunkett, 2 Y. & C. C. C. 245 ; Lambert v. Overton, 13 W. E. 227. Where the relation of trustee and cestui que trust is clearly established, a power of attorney may be a sufficient declaration of the trust : Exp. Pye, 18 Ves. 140 : ante, pp. 29, 32 ; and see Blalcely v. Brady, 2 Dr. & Walsh, 311, 328. As to the effect of acting upon a power of attorney after the death of the donor, with reference to the com- pletion of the trust, see Kiddill v. Farnell, 3 Sm. & G. 428 ; Farnell v. Hingston, 3 Sm. & G. 387 ; Peckham v. Taylor, 31 Bea. 251 ; and see 22 & 23 Vict. c. 35, s. 26. Handing over a promissory note with title-deeds to secure the sum is a good declaration of a trust verbally declared at the time : Arthur v. Clarkson, 35 Bea. 458. The retention of the deed by the settlor does not alter its binding effect : Antrobus v. Smith, 12 Ves. 46 ; Shane V. Gadogan, Sugd. V. & P. App. 26, 9th ed. ; Fletcher v.

The object of the deed being to prevent bankriiptcy they cannot have the beoefit of it if they have not acceded to it before the debtor's bankruptcy : Biron v. Mount, 24i Bea. 642. In general, no person can be considered to have im- pliedly acceded to the deed, who has not put himself in precisely the same situation with regard to the debtor as if he had executed it, the principle of the rule being that the creditor claiming the benefits of the deed must also bear its obligations : Forbes v. Limond, 4 D. M. & G. 315. If the trustees have power to enlarge the time, they should do so, if necessary to permit those to execute it who from absence abroad or other cause are unable to execute it Avithin the earlier period : Raworth v. Parker, 2 K. & J. 163. It seems that the consideration of a covenant not to sue for a given time does not prevent non-executing creditors from coming in after the peiiod limited by the deed : Re Baber, 10 Eq. 554, in which Lane v. Husband, 14 Sim. 656, contra, is disapproved. Where the trustee under the deed is also beneficially entitled, no express assent is necessary, and the deed is irrevocable : Siggers v.

Where the trustee under a devise to pay debts is him- self a creditor he has no right of retainer whether he is also executor or not : Bain v. Sadler, 12 Eq. 570. If the deed be in consideration of antecedent specific debts and provides for their payment by a trustee who is solicitor to the creditors as well as to the debtor, the trust is still good, though the creditors do not execute : Wilding V. Richards, 1 Coll. 661. TEUSTS FOE CREDITORS — BARRED DEBTS. 39 A trust deed by a debtor for payment of "moneys What debts owing by him " extends only to debts contracted at the deed, time of making the deed ; Purefoy v.

Trustees of creditors' deeds are empowered to require creditors to prove their debts before they execute ; but having once allowed the creditor to execute for a certain sum, they cannot afterwards contest the debt, except in an action to cancel or rectify the execution of the deed on the ground of deceit, fraud, or the like : Lancaster v. Mce, 81 Bea. 325. After an administration by the Court, trustees to pay debts may not repossess themselves of the estate to pro- vide for a further claim, however liable the legatees may be to pay it : Underwood v. Hatton, 5 Bea. 36. But the Court will not control the exercise of a power of selection given to the trustees : Wain v. Egmont, 2 M. & K. 445 ; Brever v. Mawdesley, 16 Sim. 511. As to giving a secret preference to one creditor over others, see Mare v. Sandford, 1 Giff. 288 ; McKeivan v. Sanderson, 15 Eq. 229 ; 20 Eq. 65. It is not an objection to the irrevocability of the deed that it is executed just before proceedings taken by one of the creditors : Maclcinnon v. Stevjart, 1 Sim. N. S. 76. In the absence of a provision to the contrary, a secured creditor, unless he gives up his security, must have it valued or realised, and can only prove for the deficiency in accordance with the rules of bankruptcy : Judicature Act, 1875, s. 10.

CHAPTEE IX. OF EXECUTORY TRUSTS. "An executory trust, as opposed to a trust executed What is an [which is one declared by and contained in the instru- *^°^ "'^ ment itself], is a trust raised by a stipulation or direction in marriage articles, or in a deed or will, to make a convey- ance, settlement, or assurance to uses, or upon trusts, ■which do not appear to be formally and finally declared by the instrument containing such stipulation or direction : " Fearne, § 489 ; Stamford v. Hobart, 3 B. P. C. 31—33 ; Sackville West v. Holmesdale, L. E. 4 H. L. 553. Where, therefore, an executory trust arises, the Court I'ower of will not direct a conveyance according to the informal ex- tion by the pressions, but one to be made in a proper legal manner *^''"'^- so as may best answer the interest of the parties : Stam- ford V. Hobart, 3 B. P. C. 31—33 ; Glenorchy v. Bosville, 1 W. & T. L. C. 16. The instances of the application of this rule are gene- Effect of . . 1 . 1 • 1 , 1 • the rule in rally those of marriage articles m which there being a sheiky's limitation to the husband for life, with a remainder to the ""**■ heirs or heirs male of his body, or his issue, or the like, an introduction of such a limitation into the formal settle- ment would, according to the rule in Shelley's case (1 Go. Rep. 93), vest an immediate estate of inheritance in the husband, which he could forthwith dispose of by convey- ance or statutory bar ; thereby destroying the very intent of the settlement : Sackville West v. Holmesdale, L. R. 4 H. L. 553, 561, 572. But the application of this modifying power in the Distinction Court is different in the cases of wills ; for, whereas in case of 44. EXECUTORY TRUSTS — IN MARRIAGE ARTICLES. ■wills and the case of articles the nature of the case, the propriety of articles. providing for the issue, &c., afford sufficient ground for treating the articles in such a way as that the purposes shall not be defeated, in a will there is no such guide, except the intention to be gathered from the document itself, and thus if the testator has been " his own convey- ancer" and has left nothing incomplete, but has shewn the limitations to be inserted in the formal settlement, such limitations cannot be moulded by the Court, and will be treated as executed legal gifts : Hochfort v. Fitzmaurice, 2 Dr. & W. 21 ; Egerton v. Brownlow, 4 H. L. C. 210 ; Austen v. Taylor, 1 Ed. 861 ; 8ackville West v. Holmes- dale, L. R. 4 H. L. 561. This distinction (which was apparently denied by Lord Hard wick in Bagshaw v. Spencer, 1 Ves. Sen. 150) is now clearly established with regard to the means of testing whether a trust is executory or not ; in the mode of executing it there is no difference when its executory nature has been ascertained ; Jervoise v.

Mayn, 5 Eq. 150. In that case there would also be inserted a provision limiting over the property on death of children iinder 21 : ibid. ; Cogan v. Duffueld, 2 Ch. D. 44, and the cases there cited. If, however, a limitation be to children simpliciter, a joint tenancy must be inferred on the ground that the instrument is not executory : Le HavillandY. Be Sauma- rez, 14 W. R. 118 ; Mayn v. Mayn, 5 Eq. 152 ; Re Bel- lasis, 12 Eq. 218. The Court refuses to vary the limitations against a pur- chaser for value without notice : West v. Ernssey, supra; Warrick v. Warrich, 3 Atk. 291.

Executory Trusts in Wills. In the case of wills, the object of the testator can be In wills when trusts gathered only from the words he uses ; and therefore there is not the guide to his • purpose which is furnished in the are execu- case of marriage articles by the nature of the intended when not. relation between the parties. Thus the Court will mould executory limitations in a will only where the testator has declared the trust in an imperfect or inaccurate manner. In other words, if the testator has been " his own convey- ancer," i.e., has sufficiently shewn the limitations to be inserted in the contemplated instrument, no deviation from those limitations will be permitted : Blackburn v. Stables, 2 V. & B. 369 ; Egerton v. Brownlow, 4 H. L. C. 1 ; Jervoise v. Buke of Northumberland, 1 J. & W. 559 ; Rochfort v. Fitzmaurice, 2 Dr. & W. 1 ; Donca^ter V.

Personalty to be settled under words applicable to realty only Avill be limited in the manner which will best show the testator's purpose : Loch v. Bagley, 4> Eq. 122.

These various forms of expression are not of equal force and cogency ; words of recommendation, or request, or of hope, are hardly so strong as those of entreaty or confi- dence, and their construction as a command must depend upon the language used in each particular instrument: Eaton V.

The principle that a trust with all its consequences may be created by precatory words, though now well settled, has not been universally approved and is not likely to be extended : Sale v.

A devisee in tail cannot be prevented from, barring it by words of trust or confidence that he will not do so : BawJdns v. Penrhyn, 6 Ch. D. 318 ; see post, p. 84. So a gift trusting to the donee's " liberality " to reward others and to retain the estates in a particular line is not upon trust : Knight v. Boughton, 11 CI. & F. 513. If the testator uses such words as the " bulk " or " what is left '' as intended to be affected by his desire or recom- mendation, no trust arises : Palmer v. Simmonds, 2 Drew. 221; Pushman v.

"Descendants" are ascertainable within the rule: Pier- son V. Garnet, 2 B. C. C. 38, 226 ; Parsons v. Baker, 18 Ves. 476.

With respect to realty, " family " if not otherwise controlled by the context may mean the heir-at-law: Wright v. Atkyns, supra; Green v. Marsden, supra. "Heirs," without some indication as to Avho were in- tended to take is too vague, where the gift includes both realty and personalty : Meredith v. Heneage, 1 Sim. 542. If it be once established that a trust was intended, the legatee cannot take beneficially, although the objects may be too vague to be enforced : Briggs v. Penny, 3 McN. & G. 546 ; Bernard v.

But where the whole legal interest is given for a particular purpose with an intention to give to the devisee or legatee of the legal estate the beneficial interest, if the whole is not exhausted by that particular purpose, the surplus goes to the devisee or legatee, as it is intended to be given, and there is no resulting trust : King v. Denison, 1 V. & B. 273 ; Hill v. Bishop of Lon- don, 1 Atk. 618 ; Culpepper v. Aston, 2 Ch. Ca. 115, 223 ; Roper v. Radcliffe, 9 Mod. 171 ; Cook v. Hutchin- son, 1 Keen, 50. The same principle applies to the case of a grant : Norilien v. Carnegie, 4 Drew. 587. According to this principle land devised upon trust to pay debts, &c., in aid of personalty, results if the personalty prove sufficient : Wych v. Packington, 3 B. P. C. 44; Bug- gins V. Yates, 9 Mod. 122. Land devised to trustees and their heirs, but without any limitation of the ultimate beneficial fee simple, results to the heir : Hobart v. Suffolk, 2 Vern. 644. A fund arising from the sale of land and directed to be set apart to serve annuities, but not itself disposed of, results to the heir : Watson v. Hayes, 5 M. & Cr. 125 ; and see Sherrard v. Harborough, Amb. 165. KESULTING TJRUSTS. 59 Mere negative words will not exclude the trust for the Heir not ->- cxcludGcl heir: Cook y. Duclcenfield, 2 Atk. 566; Fitch v. Weber, by negative 6 Ha. 145. "o^''^- Nor will a bare intention be allowed to disinherit the Norbybare heir, but only a clear intention to be inferred from the expressions used throughout the will : Hill v. Bishop of London, 1 Atk. 618 ; King v. Denison, 1 V. & B. 273 ; Phillips V. Phillips, 1 M. & K. 649. And even then it must appear distinctly to whom the estate is to go : Dun- nage V. White, 1 J. & W. 583 ; Salter v. Gavamagh, 1 Dr. & Walsh, 686. Words of tenderness or importing an intention of ^'/*'.*° '^ ° , . relatives. bounty towards a relative will have their effect as circum- stances in favour of a beneficial gift as against the resulting trust : Lloyd, v. Spillet, 2 Atk. 148 ; Cook v. Duckinfield, supra ; Coninghar)i v. Mellish, Pr. Ch. 31 ; King v. Denison, 1 V. & B. 273 ; Rogers v. Rogers, 8 P. W. 193 ; Buggins v. Yates, 9 Mod. 122. A legacy to the heir is also regarded as an indication ^'^P"? *° of intention to exclude him, not as necessarily rebutting the trust : Starkey v. Brooks, 1 P. W. 390 ; Salter v. Cavanagh, 1 Dr. & Walsh, 684 ; Saltmash v. Barrett, 3 D. F. & J. 279. The use of the word "trust " or the description of the Gift devisee as a "trustee" may be met hj the context of the trust." will showing a strong intention to give a beneficial inter- est : Hill V. Bishop of London, 1 Atk. 620 ; Dawson v. Clarke, 15 Yes. 409 ; Cook v. Hutchinson, 1 Keen, 42. But the use of such words of trust where no trust is sufficiently declared, affords ground for a strong presump- tion against the trustee being intended to take beneficially, and there is a resulting trust accordingly : Dawson v. Clarke, 18 Ves. 254 ; Morice v. Bishop of Durham, 10 Ves. 537 ; Barrs v. Fewkes, 2 H. & M. 60 ; Aston v. Wood, 6 Eq. 419. So also where the trusts declared are too uncertain : Trusts Stubbs V. Sargon, 3 M. & Cr. 507 ; Kendall v. Granger, 5 Bea. 800. 60 RESULTING TRUSTS— WANT OF CONSIDERATION. Or unde- clared. Or illegal. Or fail. Words ap- plicable to personalty. Or where the trusts are proposed to be afterwards declared but are not so declared : Emhlyn v. Freeman, Pr. Ch. 541 ; Fitch v. Weher, 6 Ha. 145 ; see Biddulph v. Williams, 1 Ch. D. 203, in which case, however, an appointment of trust funds had been made upon trusts intended to be, but which never were, declared, and evidence was admitted to shew the intention that there should be a resulting trust for those taking under the original settlement ; and it was so held. Or where the trusts if carried into effect would be illegal : Tregonvjell v. Sydenham, 3 Dow, 194 ; Gihhs v. liumsey, 2 V. & B. 294. Or where the trusts fail : Ackroyd v. Smithson, 1 W. & T. L. C. 949. Where a testator in a will of land has used words of limitation applicable to real estate but has declared trusts applicable to personal estate only, the resulting trust enures for the benefit of the heir: Dunnage v. White, 1 J. & W. 583; Lloyd v. Lloyd, 7 Eq. 458; Longley v. Longley, 13 Eq. 133. For the cases of resulting trusts arising upon the doctrine of conversion, including the distinction between a devise upon trust and a devise subject to a particular purpose, which are matters arising rather upon the construction of wills than upon the law of trusts proper, see the notes to Ackroyd v. S'mithson, 1 W. & T. L. G. 949 ; 1 Jarm. Wills, Ch. xix. ; Theobald, 9.5—108. Eesulting trust for grantor. Exception in case of wife or child. Resulting Trusts from Want of Consideration. On the ground that a feoffment to a stranger without consideration raised a use in the feoffor, where no other trust was declared, a grant or lease to a stranger without consideration results to the grantor or lessor : Norfolk v. Brown, Pr. Ch. 80 ; Warman v. Seaman, 2 Free. 308 ; Orey v. Grey, 2 Swans. 598. A grant to a wife or child is taken to intend an ad- vancement, and no trust results to the grantor in that EESDLTING TRUSTS — PURCHASE IN CHlLC's NAME. 61 case : Grey v. Grey, 2 Swans. 598; Christ's Hospital v. Budgin, 2 Vern. 683 ; see infra. A nominal consideration in the case of a grant to a Nominal stranger -will not avail to rebut the resulting trust ; Scul- j™^'''"'^^' thorp V. Burgess, 1 Ves. Jun. 92. Securities and money simply made over without consi- Gift of deration must be taken to have been given absolutely "'""'^y' ^'^■ unless such an inference can be rebutted : George v. Howard, 7 Price, 651, and see ante, ch. vii., on Volun- tary Trusts. Resulting trusts are unaffected by the Statute of Resulting Frauds, which enacts that where any conveyance shall „™ers. 8 be made of any lands or tenements by which a trust or °^ Statute confidence shall or may arise or result by the implication or construction of law, or be transferred or extinguished by an act or operation of law, then and in every such case such trust or confidence shall be of the like force and effect as the same would have been if this Act had not been made : 29 Car. 2, c. 3, s. 8. Parol evidence may therefore be given to rebut a re- Parol suiting trust: Laniplugh v. Lamplugh, 1 P. W. 112; ^"''«™® BeUasis v. Coinpton, 2 Vern. 294. But it is admissible only where the trust arises from not against presumption of law — not to override the expressed inten- in^nyor. tion of an instrument : Langham v.

McBoual, 13 Ves. 148 ; SUd- viore V. Bradford, 8 Eq. 134. The receipt of rents, or dividends, or interest, by the father by the permission of the son, whether an infant or adult, is of no avail to make the son a trustee ; Mumma V.

But coupled with other acts of ownership, the receipt of rents or dividends will help to show that no advance- ment was intended : Murless v. Franklin, 1 Swans. 13 ; Grey v. Grey, supra; Stock v. McAvoy, 15 Eq. 55. A purchase by way of advancement is not within 27 Eliz. c. 4; Gorge's Case, Cro. Car. 550 ; Glaisterw. Hewer, 8 Ves. 195 ; Drew v. Martin, 2 H. & M. 130. But it is within 13 Eliz. c. 5, so as to be a ground for an inquiry as to the parent's solvency at the time : Town- send V. Westacott, 2 Bea. 340 ; 4 Bea. 58 ; Christy v. Cour- tenay, 13 Bea. 96 ; but see Drew v. Martin, supra. If the purchase be of copyholds for lives, and the father put in the lives of himself, his wife, and his son, the son takes beneficially : Dyer v. Dyer, 2 Cox, 92. The fact that the father does not put in his own life is not enough to countervail the rule: Finch v. Finch, 15 Ves. 43 ; Murless v. Franklin, 1 Swans. 13.

A custom in a manor that the persons for whose lives a Custom to grant is made should take beneficially, will not be good j™*^^^ against a resulting trust : Lewis v. Lane, 2 M. & K. 449. In the case of a purchase of freeholds in the joint Purchase names of the father and son, in the absence of fraud, the JJ^^°g°of trust is equally rebutted by the relationship : Scroope v. fatlier and Scroope, 1 Ch.

Where a father transfers Consols into the names of his Intention two daughters under circumstances shewing that he did control of not mean to part with the control of the fund, or that he property. did it to save- legacy duty, the balance and accretions at his death are part of his estate : Bone v.

But if a trust for another be expressed by him at the time, though not declared on account of the banker's ob- jection to notice it, the husband's acquiescence in leaving the property in the joint names of himself and his wife, does not create an advancement for her : Smith v. Warde, 15 Sim. 56. So also a mere transfer of his banking account into the joint names for convenience, as if he is in failing health, does not constitute an advancement : Marshal v. Crut- well, 20 Eq. 328 ; but see Batstone v. Salter, 19 Eq. 250. 10 Ch. 431 ; Lloyd v. Pughe, 8 Cb. 88. Nor does payment by the husband to the wife's ac- count : Lloyd v. Pughe, 8 Ch. 88. Where the husband invests funds in the names of the trustees of his settlement, but does not give them notice of it, such funds will be held to be an augmentation of the trust property : Re Curteis, 14 Eq. 217 ; but see Re Eyhyn, supra. -Where the husband, after a purchase of stock in the joint names of himself and his wife, makes a will, it must clearly appear from it that he intended to pass the same stock in order to raise a case of election against the wife : Bummer v.

A discretionary power given by a testator to sell any of his estates is well exercised by a sale of all of them : Rendlesham v. Meux, 14 Sim. 249. If the trustees have done all they can to get the best price, they are not chargeable for a sale at an undervalue : Ord V. Noel, supra. If the sale be by auction they should advertise it pro- perly : Ihid. They must not fix an auction on a day on which a good attendance cannot be expected : OriDie v. Wright, 3 Jur. 19. They may fix a reserve price : Re Peyton, 30 Bea. 252 ; and see Levy v. Pendergrass, 2 Bea. 415. But without fixing a reserve they may not buy in {Taylor v.

The practice of opening biddings under sales by the Court is not extended to sales by trustees : Harper v. Hayes, 2 D. F. & J. 549. When two rival offers are made trustees need not ask one of the intending purchasers to increase his offer before accepting the other : Harpier v. Hayes, 2 D.

If one of the trustees be a female and she marries, she cannot afterwards exercise the trust for sale, and the con- tract cannot then be enforced : Avery v. Griffin, 6 Eq. 606. Trustees or executors directed to sell with all con- venient speed must sell within a reasonable period, which is usually held to mean a year from the death of the testator : Buxton v.

But if, in the bond fide exercise of their discretion, they do not sell within the year, they will not be made liable for a loss arising soon after: Buxton v. Buxton, supra; Marsden v. Kent, 5 Ch.

But where there is a mere charge of legacies, trustee.? for sale may defer the sale for a year without paying interest till that time : Turner v. Buck, 18 Eq. 301. A direction to sell, with a power to postpone the sale for a given number of years, is held to be directory, and does not preclude the trustees from making a good title after sucli period : Witdicot v.

But trustees postponing or accelerating the sale cannot thus alter or prejudice the cestuis que trust, who must have their remedy if any loss is occasioned thereby : Hawldns v. Chappel, 1 Atk. 623 ; Gaskell v. Harman, 11 Ves. 507. So, even against a purchaser, a sale made during the life, instead of at the death, of a person, was not enforced, as there were parties interested who were infants or not sui juris : Blacldow v. Laivs, 2 Ha. 40 ; and see Want v. Stallibrass, L. E. 8 Ex. 175. But though a power to charge may not be accelerated by the surrender of a prior life estate, a power of sale may be so accelerated : Truell v. Tysson, 21 Bea. 437, and cases cited arguendo ; Mills v. Dugmore, 30 Bea. 104. And a revei-sion may, with the consent of the tenant for life, be sold, though he was not intended to be so bene- fited by the settlement: Clarh v. Seymour, 7 Sim. 67; 31inet v.

Trustees under different trusts may sell, or concur with Joint sales other trustees or owners in a joint sale of, the different ^i*™o«ier trust estates, or of the trust estate with another property property, if such joint sale is obviously beneficial, and if the trust estate will not be affected by questions or conditions relat- ing to such other trust estate or property : Rede v.

But now the fact of a mistaken payment of timber money to the tenant for life will not invalidate the sale, if the money be brought into settlement as the Court directs : 22 & 23 Vict. c. 35, s. 13. Under 25 & 26 Vict. c. 108, trustees may, with the leave of the Court, sell the surface with a reservation of minerals. As to the practice under this Act see Morgan and Chute, Chancery Acts, 269, 5th ed. The petition under this Act need not be served on remaindermen : Re Pryse, 10 Eq. 531 ; Re Na.gle, 6 Ch. D. 104. And the mines may also be reserved on a sale under the Settled Estates Act, 1877 (40 & 41 Vict. c. 18, s. 19). Powers of sale by trustees are construed strictly ; and if the sale is to be with the consent of all the cestuis que trust, it is probably not exerciseable after the death of one ; Sykes v.

And on a sale by trustees for building purposes, they may charge expenses of preparing the land on the pro- ceeds : Cookson v. Lee, 23 L. J. Ch. 473. Trustees must give a good marketable title, like any other vendors : White v. Foljambe, 11 Ves. 343 ; McDonald v. Hanson, 12 Ves. 277 ; Sugd. 69 ; and see Pyrke v.

In a proper case they will be allow^ed what they may have applied in settling claims interfering with the clear- ness of the title : Forshaw v. Higginson, 8 D. M. & G. 827. And trustees will be relieved from personal under- takings given to purchasers to settle such claims : Wedgwood v. Adams, 6 Bea. 600 ; 8 Ibid. 103.

An outstanding legal estate must be conveyed to the trustees of the equitable estate without requiring the beneficiaries to join : Angier v. Stannard, 3 M. & K. 506. Trustees are primarily liable for the costs of a specific performance suit ; but may recover them from their cestuis que trust : Edwards v. Harvey, G. Coop. 40 ; Hill V. Magan, 2 Moll 460; Turner v.

May, 3 K. & J. 58.5 ; Farwell, Powers, p. 367, et seq. A trust for conversion out and out is not duly executed by a mortgage : Haldenhy v. Spofforth, 1 Bea. 395 ; Stroughill v. Anstey, 1 D. M. & G. 643 ; Page v. Cooper, 16 Bea. 396 ; Devaynes v. Robinson, 24 Bea. 86. This is especially the case where leaseholds are given generally to persons in succession with the consequences arising from the rule in Hoive v. Barhnouth, 7 Ves. 150, ante, p. 91 : Stroughill v. Anstey, 1 D. M. k G. 643. But if a particular charge is to be raised, a mortgage and not a sale may be allowed under circumstances of benefit to the estate : Ihid. 642. Where the Court supports a mortgage instead of a sale out and out for the reasons mentioned above, it does so not because a " power to sell implies a power to mort- gage," (as stated in Mills v. Banks, 3 P. W. 1, 9; Halden- hy V. Spofforth, 1 Bea. 390, 395 ; Ball v. Harris, 4 M. & Or. 264, 267), but as a conditional sale, or a 2^i'oper mode of raising the money : Stroughill v. Anstey, 1 D.

Under instruments executed since 2Sth August, 1860: — " The receipts in writing of any trustees or trustee for any money payable to them or him by reason or in exe- cution of any trusts or powers reposed or vested in them or him, shall be sufficient discharges for the money therein expressed to be received and shall effectually exonerate the persons paying such money from seeing to the appli- cation thereof, or from being answerable for any loss or misapplication thereof " : 23 & 24 Vict, c. 145, s. 29 (Lord Oran worth's Act).

But a power to invest on " securities " implies no power to give receipts on an investment on mortgage of land, which is a real security : Hanson v. Beverley, Sugd. V. & P. 848, 11th ed.

An inquiry by the purchaser as to subsisting debts, if addressed after a long period of time since the death of the testator to beneficiaries who had become absolutely entitled to the legal estate, being unanswered, the pur- chaser was held to be sufficiently discharged : Sabin v.

Cotton, 34 Bea. 615 ; but see, contra, Carlyon v. Truscott, 20 Eq. 348. If the trust directs that lands shall be sold for the pay- ment of certain debts, mentioning in particular to whom those debts are owing, the purchaser is bound to see the money applied for the payment of those debts , Elliot v. Merryman, supra; Rogers v. Sldllicorne, Amb. 189 ; Smith V. Guyon, 1 B. C. C. 186 ; Lloyd Y.JBaldiuin, 1 Ves. Sen. 173 ; Culpepper v. Austin, 2 Ch. Ca. 223 ; Johnson V. Kennett, 3 M. & K. 630 ; Horn v. Horn, 2 S. & S. 448. This rule also is applicable to cases where the instru- I'^ule ap- ment is dated before the 13th August, 1859, for it appears casesbefore that s. 23 of the Act (cjted above) is not retrospective : J""^'^ ^*- , Bennett v. Lytton, 2 J. & H. 158; Lewin, 394. Act.' After a general charge of debts has been satisfied, the Does not purchaser need not see that legacies also charged have f^JadeT*" been paid: Johnsons. Kennett, supra; Page Y.Adam, ■wtere 4 Bea. 269 ; Stroughill v. Anstey, supra. chargetr Upon the question as to who is entitled to sell and give ^'^ I'^i'^- receipts, Avhere there is a charge of debts and no trust for ^gj^^f ^n^ their payment by sale or otherwise : Lord St. Leonards' no direc- Act (22 & 23 Vict. c. 35) enacts as to wills subsequent to paym^ent 13th August, 1859 :— That the trusteesfor the time being may sell or mortgage, 22 & 23 notwithstanding the absence of any express power in the Jg'^i^Lis' will : ss. 14, 15. That if there be no devise to trustees the executors may sell or mortgage in like manner:- s. 16. That purchasers or mortgagees need not inquire whether a sale or mortgage thus effected has been correctly effected according to the statutory power : s. 17.

Charge of dehts and no devise : heir cannot sell but should join with exe- cutors, out an express power to sell, has been held to give the trustees such power : 8haw v. Borrer, 1 Keen, 559 ; Ball V. Harris, 4 M. & Cr. 264 ; Eidsforih v. Armstead, 2 K- & J. 333 ; Sabin v. Heape, 27 Bea. 553; Gorser v. Cart- wright, L. E. 7 H. L. 731. But in other instances it was supposed that the executors had in such a case an implied power of sale : Wrigley v. Sykes, 21 Bea. 337 ; Golyer v. Finch, 5 H. L. C. 905. In one case, however, it was held that the executors had the power, coupled with that of calling on the trustees to conve}' the legal estate : Hodkinson v. Quinn, 1 J. & H. 303, 309; 30 L. J. Ch. 118 ; and see Hooper v. Strutton, 12 W. R. 367 ; see Dart, 567. 2. A devise to a beneficiary charged with debts and legacies, or annuities, gave him a power of sale : Elliot v. Merryman, 1 W. & T. L. C. 64 ; Page v. Adam, 4 Bea. 269 ; Golyer v. Finch, 5 H. L. C. 922 ; Lewin, 406, 410 ; Dart, 568 ; but see 2 Dav. Conv. 990. From the words of s. 18 of Lord St. Leonard.?' Act it seems that the Legis- lature assumed this power existed, for after excepting this kind of devise from the Act it also saves " the power of any such devisee or devisees to sell or mortgage as he or they may by law now do." 3. A devise, subject to debts, to a series of persons, but without a direction as to payment, has been lield to give the executors a power of sale : Robinson v. Lowater, 5 D. M. & G. 272; Bolton v. Stannard, 4 Jur. N. S. 576 ; 6 W. R. 570 ; Sabin v. Heape, supra ; Greetham v. Golton, 34 Bea. 615; but see Gooh v. Dawson, 3 D. F. & J. 127. Mr. Lewin thought that here the executors had an equit- able power, with the right to call upon the depositaries of the legal estate to convey : p. 410. See s. 16 of Lord St. Leonards' Act, supra. 4. A charge of debts without a devise of the land gives the heir no power of sale, but if the executors sell it seems that the heir should join in the conveyance : Gosling v. Garter, 1 Coll. 644 ; and see Golyer v. Finch, 5 H. L, C. 922 ; Lewin, p. 408, 410, SALES BY TRUSTEES — RECEIPTS 01? TRUSTEES. 129 5. A charge of debts, where the devisee dies in the life- 5. Charge time of the testator, leaves no power in any one to sell, devise and the Court alone can probably effect a sale : see Lewin, l^^P^ss. p. 409. Notwithstanding a general charge of debts or legacies, Notice to and notwithstanding the statutory provisions referred to, ^^^^ sTiris circumstances amounting to notice to the purchaser that a breach the sale is improper, or his actual participation in such prevents impropriety, will leave him unprotected by the trustee's ^^^ '^'^" receipt : Stroughill v. Anstey, 1 D. M. & G. 651 ; and see WatJmis v. Cheek, 2 S. & S. 199, 205 ; Colyer v. Finch, 5 H. L. C. 923 ; but see Corser v. Cartwright, L. R. 7 H. L. 731, 737. A purchaser, knowing that a sale is being effected by a Sale not person who is not beneficial owner and not for the pay- "J °J^^^t ment of any charge on the property, would not be absolved paying from seeing to the application of the purchase-money : " ^'^^^' WatJcins v. Cheek, supra ; Barrow v. Griffith, 11 Jur. N. S. 6. A sale by trustees ostensibly for the payment of Sale by debts, at a time so long after the date of the charge ^^'^JJen dlbts that the debts must probably have been paid, should must have put the purchaser upon his inquiry as to the propriety paid. °°° of the sale: Stroughill v. Anstey, supra; Devaynes v. Robinson, 24 Bea. 93; but see Sabin v. Heape, 27 Bea. 553. As a suit paralyses the powers of trustees, a sale by Sale after them after its institution must be at least a matter for ^Jou^ht inquiry: Lloyd v. Baldiuin, 1 Ves. Sen. 173; Walker y. Smallwood, Amb. 676. Notice of registered judgments will not affect a pur- Notice of chaser from a trustee for sale and distribution who is J'l'is™^^'^- also executrix : Drummond v. Tracy, Johns. 608. Notice that the personal estate is sufficient, and that Notice that the debts are paid, where the realty was to be sold only ^^§""^1*^ in the case of a deficiency, is notice to a purchaser of a breach of trust within the above rule : Carlyon v.

The onus is on the objecting creditor to show that the purchaser had notice of a breach of trust : Corner v. GartivrigM, supra; Oram v. Richardson, W. N., 1877, 13. CHAPTER XIX. TRUSTS FOE, AND POWERS OF, INVESTMENT. Unless expressly forbidden by the settlement, trustees Lord St. may now invest any trust fund on mortgage, Bank Stock, ^5™^ or East India Stock : Lord St. Leonards' Act, 22 & 23 Vict. c. 35, s. 32 ; see post, p. 132. Indefinite or Iviperfect To-ust to Invest. Previously to this enactment it was much doubted Absence of whether any trust moneys, not subject to a trust for towct'-"^ investment in specified securities, or merely coming to purchase persons clothed with a trust, could be invested on mort- gage or on other than Consols : Holland v. Hughes, 16 Ves. 114 ; Robinson v. Robinson, 1 D. M. & G. 247, 255 ; Raby v. Ridehalgh, 7 D. M. & G. 104. See also 23 & 24 Vict. c. 145, s. 25, infra. Mortgages were not allowed where the trust was to Mortgage, invest in Consols : Pride v. Fooks, 2 Bea. 432. And the Court required a very special case to be made Unau- to sanction a mortgage to secure funds not subject to an *''°™^'^ express trust to invest : Exp. FranJdyn, 1 De G. & Sm. 528 ; Baud v. Fardell, 7 D. M. & G. 633 ; Shaw v. Bunny, 2 De G. J. & Sm. 68 ; and see Raby v. Ridehalgh, supi-a. However, as between Consols and other Government Choice of stocks, ti-ustees were not held liable for fluctuations : '^°^®™" Clough V. Bond, 3 M. & Cr. 496. securities. And it was held that a power to invest on " Government Eeteution or other good security " justified the retention of Navy p-^r^ K 2 133 INVESTMENT — EXCHEQUER BILLS. Of India Stock.

But India Stock was not allowed to be retained where the trust was to invest in Government or real securities : Bimes v. Scott, 4 Russ. 195. An evident discretion as to investment will not allow trustees to invest in other than permanent or irredeemable securities ; and they may be liable for depreciation in such cases, especially where infants are entitled in remainder : Stewart v. Sanderson, 10 Eq. 26, a case of investment in 7 per Cent. Preference Railway Stock ; and see Waite v. Littlewood, 41 L. J. Ch. 636. If a settlor simply directs interest to be paid to a bene- ficiary on certain days, that Government security on which tlie dividends are payable on or about such days is a proper security : Galdecott v. Galdecott, 4 Madd. 189. Exclieqixer Bills. For a tem- porary pur- IMse. Practice of Court. Exchequer Bills. Trustees may not invest in Exchequer Bills as a Government security, except under the Order of February, 1861, presently noticed : see Knott v. Cottee, 16 Bea. 77. But for a temporary purpose, as for employing money until a mortgage is completed, such an investment was allowed : Matthews v. Brise, 6 Bea. 239. The Court has temporarily invested funds in Exchequer Bills : see Exp. South Eastern Railway Covipany, 9 Jur. 650 ; but see Exp. Chaplin, 3 Y. & C. 397, contra. Lord St. Leonards' Ach. 23&24 Vict. c. 38. s. 12. Money arising from sales Statutory Powers of Investment. The 32nd section of Lord St. Leonards' Aet, above re- ferred to, being held not to be retrospective {Re Miles, 27 Bea. .579), it was made so by s. 12 of 23 & 24 Vict. c. 38. Rights accrued between the dates of these two Acts are not affected by the latter Act : Hume v. Richaixlson, 8 Jur. N. S. 686. Where no provision is made, money arising from sales or exchanges of land are to be laid out on other land in STATUTORY POWERS OF INVBSTMKNT. l33 England or in paying off incumbrances : 23 & 24 Vict, or ex- c. 145, ss. 4, 0, and 6. " ^"^*^" These Acts do not apply where moneys have been in- Where no powei ' vary. vested in Bank Annuities and the trustees have no power ^"^^^ to vary : Re Warde, 2 J. & H. 191. But in another case (in which Re Warde was not cited) Lord Romilly allowed such a variation, provided that the trustees did not invest in redeemable securities at a premium : Waite v. Littleivood, 41 L. J. Ch. 636. By s. 12 of the 23 & 24 Vict. c. 38, trustees to invest in " Cash Govorument or Parliamentary securities may invest on trol^th^' securities in which " cash under the control of the Court " Court." may by General Order be invested. By the General Order of 1st February, 1861, such cash (jen. Ord. may be invested in Bank >Stock, East India Stock, Ex- l^^^' chequer Bills, 2^ per Cents., freehold or copyhold mort- gages, Three per Cent. Reduced, and New Three per Cent. Annuities. The power to invest in East India Stock did not, before East India 30 & 31 Vict. c. 132, s. 1, extend to other than the stock ^*°'=''- of the old East India Company : Peillon v, Broolcing, 4 L. T. N. S. 732 ; Exp. Golne Valley Railway, 1 D. F. & J. 53 (where, however, such an investment was held not to be a breach of trust) ; Re Fromovj, 8 W. R. 272 ; Equit. Rev. Soc. V. Fidler, 1 J. & H. 382. But that enactment extends to East India Stock, charged New India on the revenue of India, created after 13th August, 1859, . "^ ' though named in the Acts creating it as "India Stock": Exp. Golne Valley RaAlway Co., supra ; see Lewin, p. 272. Railway Stock charged on the revenue of India is not Indian within the Acts above referred to : Green v. Angell, W. N. gtock.*'^ 1867, p. 305 ; but such investment is now permitted tinder s. 1 of 30 & 81 Vict. c. 132 ; and by s. 2 of the same Act investments on securities guaranteed by Parliament are authorised. Under 23 & 24 Vict. c. 145, s. 25, trustees^ with power 22 & 23 to vary, having money in hand which it is their duty to u^' ^'iz- invest, may buy and transpose Parliamentary or public or investment 134 STATUTORY POWERS OP INVESTMENT.

Under the Land Improvement Act, 1864 (27 & 28 Vict. c. 114, s. 60), trustees with power to lend on real security may (unless expressly forbidden) advance moneys on charges under that Act. Under 30 & 31 Vict. c. 132, s. 2, trustees may invest in securities guaranteed by Parliament. Under 33 & 34 Vict. c. 34, corporation and charity, or public, trustees may invest on mortgage without the re- strictions or formalities required by the Mortmain Act. Under 34 & 35 Vict. c. 27, trustees having power to invest in mortgages 'or bonds of a railway or other com- pany maj' (unless expressly forbidden) invest in Debenture Stock. Under 34 & 35 Vict. c. 13, trustees having power to invest in public securities may (unless expressly forbidden) invest in Consolidated Stock issued by the Metropolitan Board of Works. Money in Court has been ordered to be invested in Metropolitan Stock : Re Redhead, W. N. 1878, 194. Under the Settled Estates Act, 1877 (40 & 41 Vict. c. 18, s. 36, which is substituted for s. 25 of the Act of 1856), sale moneys \intil applied may be invested in securities in which cash under the control of the Court may be in- vested. This enactment gets rid of the doubt expressed in Re Cook, 12 Eq. 12 ; Re Thorold, 14 Eq. 31; Re Taddy, 16 Eq. 532 ; Re Boyd, 42 L. J. Ch. 506. Under the Lands Clauses Act, 1845 (8 & 9 Vict. c. 18, s. 70), interim investments may be made in East India 4 per Cent. Stock ; Re Foy, W. N. 1875, p. 150 ; Re Fryer, 20 Eq. 468. So also, under a special Act which authorises invest- ments only in Navy Victualling or Exchequer Bills, or Eeduced Annuities : Re Birmmgham Blue Coat School, 1 Eq. 632 ; Re Wilkinson, 9 Eq. 343. Under Lynch's Act (4 & 5 W, IV. c. 19), where trustees STATUTORY POWEKS OF INVESTMENT. 135 have power to advance on real security in England, Wales, Irish mort- or Great Britain, it is no breach of trust to invest on real security in Ireland ; but in case persons under disability' are interested, the sanction of the Court is necessary. For the form of an order under this Act, see ^xp. French, ^°^^ °i 7 Sim. 510 ; Exp.

Guedalla, W. N. 1868, p. 87. The Court treats India Stock as involving a possible loss of capital by redemption, and prefers Bank Stock: Re Langford, 2 J. & H. 458. It is usual to order that if the exchange be not com- pleted before a given date, the next dividend is to be also laid out in the new investment, so as to prevent three dividends occurring in a year: Vidler v. Parrott, 12 W. R. 976. But this may be dispensed with in a proper case : Re Ingram, 11 W. R. 980. Trustees may not, unless otherwise Ijrovided, lend on bills, bonds, notes, &c. Solvency of borrower Power must be express. Power "to place out at interest." ■' To lend on best security.'' Personal Security. It has long been settled that trustees are debarred, unless permitted by the settlement, from lending trust money on bills, notes, bonds, or other personal security : Wilkes V. Steward, G. Coop. 6 ; Vigrass v. Binfield, 3 Madd. 62; Pliillipson v. Gatty, 7 Ha. 516; Groom v. Booth, 1 Dr. 548. Harden v. Parsons, 1 Ed. 148, is not law. The solvency or credit of the borrower is no excuse to the trustees : Terry v. Terry, Prec. Ch. 273 ; Forbes v. Ross, 2 B. C. C. 430 ; Walker v. Symonds, 3 Sw. 63 n. (6); Adye v. Feuilleteau, 3 Sw. 84 n. ; 1 Cox, 24. Even where the words of the investing power may seem to give a discretion to lend on personal security, trustees are, not permitted to exercise it : Wilkes v. Steward, supra. Thus they were not justified so to lend by a power to " place out at interest at their discretion : " Pocock v. Reddington, 5 Ves, 794. And a trust to lay out on the best security that could be got is not fulfilled by taking a promissory note, which is evidence of a debt, but not security for money. The INVESTMENT ON PERSONAL SECURITY. 137 security should be on land, or something that would be answerable for the money : Ryder v. Bicherton, 3 Swans. 80 n.

If the consent is to be in writing to a loan on bond, a loan with an unwritten consent and without a bond is unauthorised and improper : Cocker v. Quayle, 1 R. & M. 535. A large power of advancement for the benefit of a wife may authorise a loan to the husband : Re Kershciw, 6 Eq. 322 ; and see Talbot v. Marshfteld, 3 Ch. 622. Where there was power to lend to the husband a specific sum on a bond and a policy, and new trustees were to have the same powers as the original ones, the whole sum having been lent and repaid, the new trustees were held to be empowered to lend it again, the power being held unexhaustible and transmissible : Versturme V.

Freehold ground rents are not an objectionable security; and the value of the houses may be added, as the lessor can re-enter on non-payment : VicJcery v. Evans, 33 Bea. 376. If the rack-rental of the property is barely enough to answer the interest, that is good ground for charging'^ trustees with loss : Macleod v. Annesley, 16 Bea. 600, 606. In re-advancing the trust fund to the same borrower, trustees must obtain a new valuation, and should demand an abstract, and whether any fresh incumbrances have been made : Hopgood v. Parian, 11 Eq. 74. And if it turns out, through the negligence of their solicitor, that any such incumbrances take priority over their security, they are liable : Ihid. A breach of trust by a trustee, through lending on in- sufficient security, is not cured by repayment after his death ; and a subsequent loss by a re-advance will be chargeable to his estate : Lander v. Weston, 3 Dr. 389. As to whether it is not, under any circumstances, a breach of trust to take a second mortgage, see Waring v. Wari^ig, 3 I. Ch. R. 337 ; Fowler v. Reynal, 3 McN. & G. 500 ; Norris v. Wright, 14 Bea. 307 ; Droaier v. Brereton, 15 Bea. 222 ; Loclchart v. Reilly, 1 D. & J. 464, 476. Trustees must not advance the money without a proper instrument of charge; a subsequent executifln of a mort- gage, where the rights of mortgagors may be altered, will leave them still liable: Fowler y. Reynal, 3 McN. & G. 500. It is evidently improper for trustees to be represented by the same solicitors as the borrower : Waring v. Wanng, 3 Ir. Ch. R. 337 ; Fyler v. Fyler, 3 Bea. 550. Trustees are liable for the fraud of their solicitor: Sutton V. Wilders, 12 Eq. 373 ; and as to his forgery, see Bostock V. Floyer, 1 Eq. 26. So, where he represented the security ■ as good, when, in fact, the mortgagor, who was also his client, had a life interest only, the loss was made to fall on the trustees : Svtton v.

Lessor's title not to capital is settled on a remainderman, the fact that the trustees themselves are interested in the residue does not prevent them, if they act bond fide, and lend on per- fect security, from taking a security at a high rate of in- terest so as to invest a smaller sum, and thus to increase their own residue : Vickery v.

Pr. 117, et seq), it would seem that trustees may be satisfied with a good holding, though not strictly a marketable, title : and see Re Sheffield &c.. Railway Co., 1 Sm. & G. App. iv. The Court, however, Avliere it takes upon itself to direct the trust for investment (as it does after action brought, Bethell v. Abrahaon, 17 Eq. 27 ; and see Minors v. Bat- tison, 1 App. Ca. 428), directs a reference as to title generally, and does not add "having regard to the con- ditions of sale." The Judge at Chambers considers whether any defect appearing on the title can be waived : Meyrick v. Laivs, supra; Exp. Christ's Hospital, 2 H. & M. 166. Under the Vendor and Purchaser Act, 1874 (37 & 38 Vict. c. 78) s. 1, a forty years' title is substituted for a sixty years' title ; but earlier title than forty years may be required in cases similar to those in which earlier title than sixty years might before the Act be required. Under s. 3 of the same Act trustees may buy without excluding the operation of the provisions of s. 2, which are : — (1.) That under a contract to grant or assign a term of years, whether derived or to be derived out of a freehold INVESTMENT IN LAND.

(3.) The inability of the vendor to furnish the pur- Equitable chaser with a legal covenant to produce and furnish "^ ¥ *". copies of documents of title shall not be an objection to sufficient, title, in case the purchaser will, on completion of the contract, have an equitable right to the production of such documents.

Where trustees are directed to purchase " with all con- Direction venient speed," the income of the fund to be meanwhile *?^;t^°,.^ii^ accumulated, they must be diligent to find an investment, convenient in which case the tenant for life takes the accumulations ^^'^^ ' from the date of the conveyance ; if they are not, he takes them from the end of a year from the receipt of the money by the trustees : Parry v.

L 2 CHAPTER XX. OF TRUSTS AND POWERS RELATING TO RENEWABLE LEASEHOLDS. 23&24 Vict. V. lis, ss. 8 and 9. Statutory power for trustees to renew. Where estate for life is legal and no custom to renew. Where life- tenant is a ce-itui que vie. Advance of fine re- couped. Intention to obligo him to renew. Trustees under instruments dated after 28th of August, 1860, of renewable leaseholds may in their discretion, and if called upon by any beneficiary, must, do their best to obtain a renewal ; but not in case the tenant for life is under no obligation to renew or to contribute to the ex- penses of renewal ; and, except in such case, trustees may use money in hand, or raise money by mortgage, for the expenses of renewals ; 23 & 24 Vict. c. 145, ss. 8, 9. As the Act expressly excepts the case of a tenant for life being under no obligation to renew, it is necessary to show in -what cases that obligation does or does not exist. Where renewable leaseholds are given through legal limitations to persons in succession, and there is no custom or direction to renew, it is in the discretion of the tenant for life to renew or not : Nightingale v. Lawson, 1 B. C. C. 440 ; Stone v. Theed, 2 B. C. C. 248 ; and see White v. White, 4 Ves. 24 ; 9 Ves. 561. In the case of a lease for lives, it seems that if a legal tenant for life is one of the lives he cannot be called upon to renew : Verney v. Verney, 1 Ves. Sen. 429 ; White v. White, 4 Ves. 32 ; Lawrence v. Maggs, 1 Eden, 455. And any money he may have paid will be a charge upon the estate : Adderley v. Glavering, 2 B. C C. 659 ; 2 Cox, 192. But if there are indications in a will that the estate is to be kept up, as, for payment of an annuity out of the rents, the obligation to renew arises : Lock v. Lock, 2 Vern. 666. direction to renew. TRUSTS FOR RENEWAL OF LEASES. 149 And eveu where the tenancy for life is by construction Tenant for legal (see ante, Ch. I.), it is subject to an implied duty to rected to renew if the tenant for life is directed to pay the fines : P'^y ^°^^- Hullces V. Barrow, Taml. 264 ; and see Montfoi-d v. Cado- gan, 19 Ves. 633. It is still doubtful whether, where the tenant for life is Doubt as one of the lives, the fact that the legal estate is given to ^jje^g ical trustees affects the tenant for life's position with regard to ^^^^^ ™ his obligation to renew, in the absence of any express or and i implied trust for renewal : (see White v. White, 4 Ves. 32 ; Verney v. Verney, 1 Ves. Sen. 429,) though in one case the point was determined in the negative : O'Ferrall v. O'Ferrall, LI. & G. (Plunk.) 79. In the absence, therefore, of such express or implied Effect of trust, it seems that the statute would not authorise trustees *• to renew, if there was no custom or direction imposing that duty on the life tenant if his estate wete legal. That a trust to renew may be implied, was decided in Implied Montford v. Cadogan, 19 Ves. 638, where the trust to renev." pay the fines was held to imply a trust for renewal : and see Trench v. St. George, 1 Dru. & Walsh, 417. And a trust for renewal is imported into a settlement Under executed pursuant to marriage articles : Pickering v. l^^^_ "^ Vowles, 1 B. C. C. 197 ; Graham, v. Londonderry, cited 2 B. C. G. 246 ; see ante, p. 50. In cases falling under the statute, the absence of a trust Direction to renew is supplied ; and in cases of ti'usts to renew, created },o^ (,£„.' before the Act, though discretionary in form, they have strued. been treated as imperative, supposing the trustees are able to renew on terms not disadvantageous to the estate : Mortimer v. Watts, 14 Bea. 624 ; and see Milsington v. Mulgrave, 3 Madd. 491. Tenants for life subject to a direction to renew are Tenant for trustees for that purpose, and may not surrender without 1'^^ ^"'^"'^ the concurrence of the ^'emainderman : White v.

How pay- ment by tenant for life secured. No distinc- tion as to term of years. Apportionment of Renewal Fines and Expenses. Where there is no express direction of the settlor, the expenses of renewal are to be borne by tenants for life in proportion to the actual enjoyment they have of the renewed lease : Nightingale v. Laivson, 1 B. C. C. 440 ; Stone V. Theed, 2 B. C. C. 243, and 5 Ha. 451 n. ; White v. White, 9 Ves. 554 ; Jones v. Jones, 5 Ha. 440 ; Giddings V. Giddings, 3 Euss. 241, 259 ; Bradford v. Brownjohn, 3 Ch. 711 ; Isaac v. Wall, 6 Ch. D. 706. The extent of enjoyment is not to be determined by mere speculation, or by a calculation of probabilities : Jones V. Jones, 5 Ha. 465. If the tenant for life renews, he will enjoy during his own life, and will have a lien upon the residue of the term for any overpayment he may have so made : Ibid. If the remainderman renews, it seems that the only way of ensuring that the tenant for life shall pay the full amount due from him beyond the interest of the charge created for the purpose of the renewal, is to take security from the tenant for life : White v. White, sujjra ; Green- tuood V. Evans, 4 Bea. 44; Reeves v. Creswick, 3 Y. & C. 715; Jones v. Jones, 5 Ha. 466. There is no distinction between the mode of apportion- ment to be followed in the two cases of the renewal of leases for lives and leases for years, the diflSculty of arriving at the value being only greater in the former case : Jones v. Jones, sttpra ; Bradford v. Brownjohn, 3 Ch. 714 ; Isaac v. Wall, C Ch. D. 706. EENEWAL OF LEASES— APPORTIONMENT OF FINES. 151 For the mode of apportionment, see Bradford v.

Marlborough, 2 M. & K. 118 ; Bennett v. Colley, ibid. 234 ; Greenwood v. Evans, 4 Bea. 44. Where a provision has heen made by the settlor for the Kenewal expense of renewal by sale or mortgage of the estate mortgage^ itself, the tenant for life loses the rents of the part sold in the case of a sale, and keeps down the interest in the case of a mortgage : Ainslie v. Harcourt, 28 Bea. 313 ; Bradford v. Bro^.vnjohn, 3 Ch. 715 ; and see Isaac v. Wall, 6 Ch. D. 706. The result is the same where the sale or mortgage is of another estate, in which case the tenant for life of that estate is in a similar position : Ibid. Where the expenses of renewal are directed to be Renewal paid out of the rents and profits, the whole burden is rents. thrown upon the tenant for life : Montford v. Cadogan, 19 Ves. 635 ; Shaftesbwi^ v. Marlborough, supra ; Solley V. Wood, 29 Bea. 482. Trustees in this case must retain a sufficient part of the Sinking rents as they accrue to meet the renewal when it becomes "° ' necessary : Ibid. But it seems that if, notwithstanding the direction to Annnal pay out of rents, the intention is not that the payment should be made out of the annual rents, the corpus of the estate maj' be made to bear the expense according to the rules for apportionment above referred to : Allan v. Back- house, 2 V. & B. 65 ; explained in Solley v. Wood, supra; and see Shaftesbury v. Marlborough, supra ; Lewin, 324. And where the direction is to raise out of rents or by Renewal mortgage, the power to mortgage is not conclusive as o^t^o^eiits to the ultimate incidence of the charge, which will mortgage, still depend upon the intention just referred to : See Milsintown v. Portmore, 5 Madd. 471 ; Jones v. Jones, supra; Greenwood v. S vans, supra; Ainslie v. Harcourt, supra ; Solley v. Wood, 29 Bea. 482. CHAPTER XXI. RULE AGAINST PERPETUITIES AS APPLICABLE TO TRUSTS — TRUSTS FOR ACCUMULATION — THELLUSSON ACT. Application of the rule. Limitations of terms. Charge raisable by excessive term. Accumula- tion or manage- ment during re- curring minorities. The rule against perpetuities prevents the settlement of property beyond a life or lives in being and 21 years after, and if this rule is infringed in creating a trust, the excessive trust is illegal and void: Boughton v. James, 1 H. L. C. 406 ; Browne v. Stoughton, 14 Sim. 369 ; Curtis V. Lukin, 5 Bea. 147. An attempt to' engraft limitations on a term tending to a perpetuity, and not merely in trust to attend the inheritance, cannot be supported, and the term -will still go to the executor : Duke of Norfolk's Case, 3 Ch.

A distributive share of the portion fund of a deceased portionist does not merge in the eldest son's interest when he takes the estate : Richards v. Richards, Johns. 754.

In all cases, -where any property is held by trustees in Statutorj' trust for an infant, either absolutely, or contingently on mainten- his attaining the age of 21 years, or on the occurrence y°°V'„., of any event previously to his attaining that age, it shall worth's be lawful for the trustees at their sole discretion to pay to "*' the guardians (if any) of such infant, or apply for, or towards the maintenance or education of such infant, the whole or any part of the income to which such infant may be entitled in respect of such property, whether there be any other fund applicable to the same purpose, or any other person bound by law to provide for such mainten- ance or education or not, to accumulate the residue of such income ; and to apply any part or the whole of such accumulations as if the same were income in the then current year : 23 & 24 V. c. 145, s. 26. This section is not retrospective, and applies only to Not retro- instruments dated since the 28th of August, 1860. ^^^° '^®' It is held that the power given by the section stops Not avail- short at majority, and does not apply to the interval tween^21 between 21 and 25, where the legacy is postponed to the ^^^ 25. latter age: Ee Breeds, 1 Ch. D. 228. Independently of the Act, and where no other provision Rule as to exists, maintenance may be given where the property is ^^^^? *" ^ given by a parent, though the gift be contingent : Harvey V. Harvey, 2 P. W. 21 ; Hearle v. Greenhank, 3 Atk. 716 ; Wynch v. Wynch, 1 Cox, 433 ; Brown v. Temperley, 172 MAINTENANCE. Grand- children. Child must be entitled ti income.

Mostyn, W. N. 1878, 180. Or by a person in loco parentis : Re Cotton, 1 Ch. D. 232 ; Re George, 5 Ch. D. 837. But grandchildren are not within the benefit of this rule : Festing v. Allen, 5 Ha. 579, and cases cited ; Roper, Leg. 224. Where the gift is contingent on attaining 21, the Court ■will not, even since Lord Cranworth's Act, give maintenance, unless the income also would belong to the infant on attaining that age : Re George, 5 Ch. D. 837 . Where the Court is administering the estate of the parent, it will, when the contingencies are equal and the adult children, if any, consent, apply the income of the presumptive shares of the infant children for their main- tenance : Evans v. Massey, 1 Y. & J. 196 ; Marshall v. Holloway, 2 Swans. 436 ; Cavendish v. Mercer, 5 Ves. 195 n. ; Cannings v. Flower, 7 Sim. 523 ; Re Breeds, 1 Ch. D. 228. If there are remainders over under which people not in being may take, it is not enough that all the persons in esse who are presumptively entitled are before the Court and consent : Marshall v. Holloway, supra ; Exp. Kehble, ] 1 Ves. 606 ; Turner v. Turner, 4 Sim. 430 ; Parsons v. Coke, 10 W. R. 641 ; Re Arbuckle, 14 W. R. 535. Nor where the class may be increased by children coming into existence: Exp. Kehble, supra; Lomax v. Lomax, 11 Ves. 48. The application of the income in the manner specified is not open to trustees; the rule being a rule of the Court, inapplicable where the estate is not under adminis- tration : Re Breeds, 1 Ch. D. 228. Where a future legacy is given to an infant, though not a child, or one to whom the testator was in loco parentis, with words showing that it was intended for the support of the infant, interest by way of maintenance may be provided out of it : Pett v. Fellows, 1 Swans. 561 : Leslie mainteu- ance given MAINTENANCE. 173 V. Leslie, LI. & G. (Sugd.) 1 ; Boddy v. Dawes, 1 Keen, 362 ; and see Lambert v. Parker, G. Coop. 143. Though the provision for maintenance does not extend where over the entire period of minority, it may still be given by way of interest until majority : Lambert v. Parker, supra; till age less Chambers v. Goldwin, 11 Ves. 1 ; Martin v. Martin, * ^^ ' I Eq. 369. The indulgence to children of the testator is extended Direction even to the case where there is a direction to accumulate : j^^e not Jlole v. Mole, 1 Dick. 310 ; McDermott v. Kealy, 3 Russ. considered. 2G4 n. ; Stretch v. Watkins, 1 Madd. 253 ; Evans v. Massey, 1 Y. & J. 196 ; unless the accumulations are given to another person: Re George, 5 Ch. D. 837. Even prior to Lord Cranworth's Act trustees were Where allowed sums paid out of the interest on a legacy given to may allovr the child, if his father was unable to maintain him, without i°a">t«?- ' . . auce witu- the consent of the remaindermen, provided the case was out power, one in which the Court would have given maintenance : Sisson V. Shaw, 9 Ves. 288 ; Maberly v. Turton, 14 Ves. 499 ; Prince v. Hine, 26 Bea. 634. A discretion in trustees to apply maintenance, notwith- Discretion standing the father's ability to maintain his children, will g^^'* " not be controlled by the Court, as they may pay it to the father's father : Brophy v. Bellamy, 8 Ch. 798. - ^'''^''^• But where the father alleges himself to be unable to InquiT as , . , 1 1 /-w , T J • • to ability ; support his child, the Court directs an inquiry as to his ability : Thompson v. Griffin, Cr. & Ph. 317. And where trustees have a mere power of maintenance "^tere a "DOWGr IS under a settlement, the father of the children cannot given ; compel them to exercise it by payment to him or other- wise : Ihid. ; Ransome v. Burgess, 3 Eq. 780. But if there is a trust for maintenance in a marriage ^herea settlement it is held that the father contracted that consti- it should be exercised, and that it must be performed *'^^^ without regard to his ability : Mundy v. Howe, 4 B. C. C. 224 ; Meacher v. Young, 2 M. & K. 490 ; Stocken V. Stocken, 4 Sim. 152 ; 4 M. & Cr. 95 ; Ransome V. Burgess, 3 Eq. 780 ; secus in the case of a purely 174 MAINTENANCE. Extent of inquiry. After removal from father's custody. Widow's ability. Exercise of dis- cretionary power. After pro- voluntary settlement: Re Kerrison, 12 Eq. 422 ; and see Joyce V. Gottrell, 12 Eq. 566, 569. In cases where the claim for maintenance is grounded on the father's inability, it is unnecessary to show any- thing like insolvency, but the order will be made on its being shown that he is unable to bring up his children and give them such an education as their position and fortune require : Buclcworih v. Buckworth, 1 Cox, 80 ; Jervoise v. Silk, G. Coop. 52. For the form of inquiry see Seton, p. 710. When the Court has removed the children from tlie custody of the father, it does not resort to his property for their maintenance : Wellesley v. Beaufort, 2 Russ. 29. It seems that a father is not entitled as a matter of right to past maintenance : Hill v. Chapman, 2 B. C. C. 231; but see Maberly v. Turton, 14 Ves. 500. The Court ■will, however, allow past maintenance under circumstances showing that the infants would be benefited by such allowance : Maberly v. Turton, 14 Ves. 499 ; Davey v. Ward, 7 Ch. D. 762. A reference as to the ability to maintain the children is dispensed with on making an allowance to the mother during widowhood : Exp. Petre, 7 Ves. 403 ; Hodgena v. Hodgens, 4 CI. & F. 323 ; Douglas v. Andrews, 12 Bea. 310. Or after a second marriage : BiUingsley v. Critchet, 1 B. C. C. 268. As to the right of the mother to be recouped past maintenance, see Kottley v. Palmer, 11 Jur. N. S. 968; Joyce V. Gottrell, 12 Eq. 569. A discretion in trustees to apply funds for maintenance will not be interfered with by the Court so long as it is exercised according to a sound and honest judgment, which fact the Court will determine in an administration suit, and will possibly require the trustee to exercise the discretion under the view of the Court : Costabadie v. Gostabadie, 6 Ha. 414; Da/uey v. Ward, 7 Ch. D. 754. But the discretion is not gone by the institution of an MAINTENANCE. 175 action even by the trustees themselves : Sillibourne v. Newport, 1 K. & J. 602. Payment of the fund into Court under the Trustee Relief Act is a renunciation by the trustees of their power : Re Coe,A K. & J. 203. And payments made by them after action brought may be allowed to them upon clear evidence that the discretion was exercised bond fide: Slllibour'ne v. Newpo^'t, supra; Talbot v. Marshfield, 4 Eq. 661. But the expense of proving the payments to be proper will have to be borne by the trustees in any event : Talbot v. Marsh^eld, supra. The High Court will not interfere with the action of a Court of co-ordinate jurisdiction (e.g., the Palatine Court) in the exercise of its discretion in allowing maintenance : Re Alison, 8 Ch. D. 1. An implied trust arising from a gift to a widow for the support of herself and her children is limited to such children as require support : Carr v. Living, 28 Bea. 647. And a daughter living with her mother was held to be entitled though adult : Carr v. Living, 30 Bea. 474 ; Scott V. Key, 35 Bea. 291. Under such a trust sons may also be in a position to requii'e maintenance though adult: Berry v. Briant, 2 Dr. &Sm. 1. As to the maintenance of persons of weak mind, see Buncombe v. Nelson, 9 Bea. 211. The state and condition of the family must regulate the amount of maintenance to be allowed : Heysham v. Hey- sham, 1 Cox, 179 ; Allen v. Coster, 1 Bea. 202. And the allowance may be increased to enable the children to support their parents : Allen v. Coster, supra. A discretion to apply income for " maintenance or sup- port " extends to expenses of education : Re Breeds, 1 Ch. D. 228. Whether in cases not coming within Lord Cran worth's Act, and without the usual power for that purpose, trustees are justified in resorting to income which has been accu- ceedings begun. Payment into Court. Costs. Control over oiher Courts. Widow's implied trust to maintain self and children. Daughter living with mother. Adult sons. Non compos. Amount allowed. Discretion to increase.

Where two trusts ap- plicable mulated, for maintenance in future years : see Ediuards v. Grove, 2 D. F. & J. 221. Questions as to the duty of trustees with reference to maintenance may be submitted to the Court upon an advice petition under 22 & 23 "Vict. c. 35, s. 30, see ante, p. 109. So much only as has been expended is allowed in taking an account of past maintenance, though that may be less than the income of the child's fortune : Bruin v. Knott, 1 Ph. 572. And maintenance by a stranger from feelings of kind- ness is not recoverable : Grove v. Price, 26 Bea. 107 ; Worthington v. McCraer, 23 Bea. 83 ; and see Joyce v. Cottrell, 12 Eq. 569. The Court will, in a proper case, where the fund is a small one, order payment out of capital of sums which the income applicable to maintenance is insufficient to bear : Barlow v. Grant, 1 Vern. 254 ; Franklin v. Green, 2 Vern. 136 ; Exp. Chambers, 1 R & M. 577 ; Bridge v. Brown, 2 Y. & C. C. C. 181 ; Davies v. Bavies, 2 D. M. & G. 53; Nottley v. Palmer, 11 Jur. N. S. 968. But trustees should not so apply capital without the sanction of the Court : Davies v. Austen, 1 Ves. Jun. 247 ; Walker v. Wetherell, 6 Ves. 473 ; cases in n. (1) to Barlow v. Grant, sup^a. The Court may, however, in the absence of opposition, sanction the outlay, with an inquiry as to its application : Prince v. Hine, 26 Bea. 634 ; Robison v. Killey, 30 Bea. 520. The Court has, without action, raised sums due for past maintenance by means of a charge on an infant's fee simple : Re Howarth, 8 Ch. 415 ; Re Allen, cited Ibid., p. 417, n. (5). Also upon an infant's reversionary property, coupled with a life insurance by way of collateral security : De Witte V. Palin, 14 Eq. 251. An infant entitled to maintenance out of two different funds should be supported out of the fund which it is MAINTENANCE. .177 most for his benefit to apply for the purpose : Foljambe v. *" main- Willoughby, 2 S. & S. 169 ; Martin v. Martin, 1 Eq. 369 ; *'™""'' Lucas V. King, 11 W. E. 818 ; and the same principle is followed in the case of lunatics : Methold v. Turner, 4 De G. & Sm. 249 ; Re Ashley, 1 R. & M. 371 ; Gisborne v. Gisborne, 2 App. Ca. 300. Thus if the infant have a defeasible interest and an Defeasible absolute one, maintenance should be provided out of the lutehi-^" former : Bruin v. Knott, 1 Ph. 575. tciests. And if he have been maintained out of one fund, whereas Recouping he should have been maintained out of another, he is *"■"' , wrongly entitled to be recouped out of the past income of the latter chosen. fund : Furley v. Hyder, 41 L. J. Ch. 583 ; and see Lucas V. King, supra. But if a discretion is given to pay maintenance out of Discretion either of the two funds, the Court will not interfere with ^f^^d""^ the exercise of that discretion : Gisborne v. Gisborne, 2 App. Ca. 300. Children who have been maintained under a trust for Trustees that purpose cannot obtain an account of the income so ^'^"'^ °°' ^ ■*■ _ ^ account as applied, in the absence of special circumstances, or of an to applica- allegation that they have not been properly maintained : ^^^^te- Hora V.

Where no trust for advancement is reposed in the trustees, they should not apply any capital or other sums for that purpose without the sanction of the Court, which may be readily obtained upon a petition for the opinion of the Court : see p. 108 as to Advice Petitions. But where they have so applied funds they will be allowed them, if the case was one in which the Court would have made an order for the purpose : FranHin v. Green, 2 Vern. 137 ; and see Lee v. Brown, 4 Ves. 362. And out of interests upon contingencies which are equal, advancement out of capital may be given with the proper consents under the same conditions as maintenance is given in similar circumstances : see ante, p. 176. A power to advance to a child, "being a minor," is strictly construed and ceases at majority : Clarice v. Hogg, 19 W. R. 617. But a general direction will include advancement to an adult at any age before the funds fall into possession : Eoper-Curzon v. Roper-Curzon, 11 Eq. 452 ; Lowther V. BentincJc, 19 Eq. 166. Thus the Court has allowed advancement for the pay- ment of the debts of a man who had been married for 30 years, the fund being applicable' for certain purposes, " or otherwise for his benefit " : Lowther v.

A married woman has been set up in a farming busi- ness, the husband covenanting that the business should enure to her separate use : Talbot v. Marshfield, 3 Ch. 622.

Donner, 23 Bea. 285, 290 ; and see Spring v. Pride, 4 D. J. & Sm. 395, 406. The trusteeship of an estate does not prevent transac- tions between the trustee and cestui que trust foreign to the trust : Knight y. MarjoribanJcs, 2 McN. & G. 10. In the case of a purchase of the trust estate, though the character of trustee may be at an end, the transac- tion must be marked by the strictest honesty and open dealing : Gibson v. Jeyes, 6 Ves. 266 ; Farhes v. White, 11 Ves. 226 ; and see Tate v. Williamson, 2 Ch. 55. But the onus of proving fairness is removed from the trustee where the cestui que trust, being sui juris, sug- gests the sale to him and threatens to force it upon him, the trustee being an unwilling purchaser : Luff v. Lord 34 Bea. 220. In order to sever the fiduciary relation the cestui que trust himself, and not his solicitor for him, must make the new contract for that purpose : Downes v. GrazebrooJc, 3 Mer. 209. Married women selling their land to their trustees must acknowledge the deed ; for, if not, their interest can be got back if they survive their husbands : Franks v. Bollans, 3 Ch. 717. If the cestui que trust be under any disability to con- tract, the trustee can buy the trust estate only with the leave of the Court ; and he must show that he is willing to give an enhanced price : Campbell v. Walker, 5 Ves. 682 ; 13 Ves. 601. A trustee has been allowed to purchase at the reserved price after a failure to sell by auction, it appearing that such a course was beneficial to all parties : Clarke v.

A solicitor buying from his client can never support the Purchase transaction, unless he can prove that his diligence to do l^y solicitor, the best for the vendor has been as great as if he was only an attorney dealing for that vendor with a stranger : Gibson v.

But if the solicitor obtains an advantage by accidental or Accidental unforeseen circumstances only, that is not to be taken as ^ ^^^se- shewing that the transaction should not have taken place: Montesqideu v.

Loynes, 4 D. M. & G. 281; and see Gibbs v. Daniel, 4 Gitf. 36. And the absence of separate advice is a circumstance which makes the task of the solicitor to prove fairness more difficult : Gresley v. Mousley, 4 D. & J. 9G ; Pisani V. Attorney-General for Gibraltar, 5 P. C. 517. But the mere fact that the purchaser is a solicitor deal- ing with a layman, without separate advice, is no ground for setting aside the sale : Edwards v. Williams, 32 L. J. Ch. 763. Where the relation of solicitor and client does not, or has ceased to, exist, the parties are treated as having dealt at arm's length, if information obtained while acting as solicitor does not give the solicitor an unfair advantage : Cane v.

Even if great ad- vantage to trust by his exer- tions. Bonus dis- allowed. The office of trustee is an honorary one ; and no trustee or executor in trust under an express or constructive trust, and no person in a fiduciary position, is entitled to any benefit or to any remuneration for his care or trouble, unless an allowance for that purpose is provided by the instrument under which he acts ; and any profit so ob- tained is taken subject to a constructive trust for the persons at whose expense it is made : Robinson v. Pett, 3 P. W. 249 ; Ellison v. Airey, 1 Ves. Sen. Ill ; JSTew v. Jones, 1 Macn. & Q. 668 n. ; Pollard v. Doyle, 1 Dr. & Sm. 319 ; Douglas v. Archbutt, 2 D. & J. 148 ; Aberdeen Town Council v. Aberdeen University, 2 App. Ca. 544, 557. The fact that great advantage has accrued to the estate by reason of the trustee's exertions will not entitle him to reward : Robinson v. Pett, su^jra ; Barrett v. Hartley, 2 Eq. 789. Thus a sum of s£400 claimed by the trustees for extra- ordinary pains, trouble, and expense of time in and about the affairs of the testator, particularly for having made up some very intricate accounts, and got in some desperate debts, was disallowed : Robinson v. Peit, supra. A mortgagee, appointed, a trustee by certain cotton- spinners, to get in debts and to manage the property, was held not to be entitled to charge an annual bonus in his accounts, though it was shown that he had greatly bene- fited the estate : Barrett v. Hartley, siqv-a. PROFITS MADE BY TRUSTEES. 197 A mortgagee with power of sale, being a member of a Mortgagee firm of auctioneers, or a broker, cannot charge commission tioneer. upon a sale effected by his firm : Matthison v. Clarke, 3 Dr. 3 ; Arnold v. Garner, 2 Ph. 231 ; Kirkman v. Booth, 11 Beav. 273. A mortgagee in possession cannot charge for receiving For receiv- rents, though he may employ a receiver or bailiff, if ^'^^ "° ^' required, and debit the estate with the expense ; Godfrey V. Watson, 3 Atk. 518 ; Langstaffe v. Fenwich, 10 Ves. 404 ; Leitli v. Irvine, 1 M. & K. 286 ; Davis v. Bendy, 3 Madd. 170 ; Sclater v. Cottam, 3 Jur. N. S. 630. A mortgagee in possession cannot charge for commission No com- on the amount of bills paid on consignments, or on costs bills paid, of insurance of supplies for a colonial estate : Leith v. <=onsign- '^'^ ments, &c. Irvine, 1 M. & K. 277. If he acts as his own solicitor in a suit to defend his Acting as own title, he can have his costs out of pocket only, not- himself, withstanding the rule that a mortgagee is entitled to the costs of defending his title : Sclater v. Cottam, 3 Jur. N. S. 630. Though there is nothing to prevent a solicitor who is Solicitors a trustee acting as solicitor to the trust, he can charge his tees acting cestuis que trust with costs out of pocket only, not with jjj *™^* profit costs : JSfew v. Jones, 1 Macn. & G. 668 n, ; Moore v, Frowd, 3 M. & Cr. 45 ; Christophers y. White, 10 Beav. 523 ; Clack V. Carlon, 30 L. J. Ch. 640. And it makes no difference that he is employed by the other trustees : Manson v. Baillie, 2 MacQ. 80, in which Cradock v. Piper, 1 Macn. & G. 664, was in effect over- ruled ; see Broughton v. Broughton, 5 D. M. & G. 160. In one instance, where a solicitor-trustee employed his partner in the matter of the trust, on the terms of such partner being alone entitled to the profits, the Court allowed full professional charges : Clack v. Carlon, supra ; but see contra, Collins v. Carey, 2 Bea. 128 ; Christophers V. White, 10 Bea. 523.

Guardians, being constructive trustees, are subject to the general rule ; Matheiu v. Brise, 14 Beav. 341 ; Slee- man v. Wilson, 13 Eq. 36. Committees of lunatics are allowed no remuneration except under special circumstances : Re Walker, 2 Ph. 630 ; Re WestbrooJce, 2 Ph. 631 ; JExp. Fermor, Jac. 404. Inspectors under creditors' deeds cannot charge profits against the estate for goods supplied for its use : Chaplin V. Young, 33 Beav. 414. Alloiuances. The cases in which the Court has relaxed the general rule are as follows : — A trustee acting as solicitor in a number of suits affecting the trust estate would, it seems, under special circumstances, be allowed a reference to Chambers to fix a remuneration, but not by way of profit costs : Bainbrigge V. Blair, 8 Beav. 588 ; and see Marshall v. Holloiuay, 2 Swans. 453 ; Re Newton, 3 De G. & Sm. 584. Where he agrees not to participate in the profits, his firm may do the trust business : Clack v. Carlon, 30 L. J. Ch. 640. And he may charge with costs another client who lends money to the trust : Whitney v. Smith, 4 Ch. 513. Where he had managed the testator's business and leaseholds for two years, he was allowed £120 by the Court without a reference being directed : Forster v. Ridley, 4 D. J. & S. 452. As a surviving partner continuing the business with a deceased partner's capital must account to his estate for his share of the profits, the Court makes some pecuniary allowance for the time and trouble of the surviving partner : Broiun v. De Tastet, Jac. 284, 299. ALLOWANCES TO TRUSTEES. 199 So the mate of a ship, who had traded advantageously To mate with the deceased captain's money, was bound to account ^here'cap- for the profits to his estate, but was allowed a fair sum ^^^'^ liies- for his care and trouble : Brown v.

Where an annuity is given to a trustee for his trouble so long as he continues to act as trustee, it ceases when the property is paid over to a person absolutely entitled : Hull V.

A trustee to whom a legacy is so given as to be clearly annexed to the office, will not take it if he has never acted : Piggott v. Green, 6 Sim. 72 ; Slaney v. Watney, 2 Eq. 418. A legacy is not in a proper case a bar to remuneration ; and where a trustee refuses to act without payment, it will be referred to Chambers to enquire if it is for the advantage of the beneficiaries that he should continue to act, and to fix an allowance for both past and future ser- vices : Marshall v.

But if the trusts are such as that it is doubtful whether they ought to have been declared in the mode adopted by the deed appointing the trustees, though they may know of the doubt before accepting the trust, still if they after- wards receive information making it doubtful whether they ought to execute them, they have a right to come to the Court for its direction whether the trusts ought to bo executed : Neale v. Davies, 5 D. M. & G. 2.58. If the cestui que trust refuse to allow him to retire, or to take any steps to replace him, the trustee would be entitled to go to the Court to be relieved : Forshaiu v. Higginson, 20 Bea. 485 ; see v. Osborne, 6 Ves. 455 ; Gardiner v. Bownes, 22 Bea. 395. If the cestui que trust take the benefit of the action by asking for an account against him, the action becomes one for ordinary administration, with the usual result as to costs : Forshaw v Higginson, 20 Bea. 485. Where a jointure term was vested in trustees, and the wife afterwards released her jointure, upon the sale of the estate charged, without the concurrence of the trustees, it was held that they were entitled to full proof that their duties were at an end, and to their costs of a suit to com- pel them to assign the term to the purchaser of the estate : Holford V. Pliipps, 3 Bea. 434. But in a case where the equitable estate is assigned to other trustees for sale, the original trustees are not entitled to demand that their cestuis que trust should be parties to the assignment of the legal estate : Angier v.

Trustees are not indemnified by an appointment by the Court further than they would have been if appointed under a power : Trustee Act, 1850, s. 36. It is necessary to apply to the Court where a trustee^ wishing to retire, has acted, and has power to appoint, only in the case of " dying, declining, or becoming in- capable to act " : Re Woodgate, 5 W. R. 448 ; Re Arm- strong, ibid.; compare Travis v. Illingtvorth, 2 Dr. & Sm. 344. Payment into Court under the Trustee Relief Act, is a case of " refusing or declining to act " : Re Williams, 4 K. & J. 87. A proper disclaimer is construed as a desire to retire ; and whether the disclaiming trustee had acted or not, the donee of the power, who was the settlor, was held entitled to appoint new trustees : Nohle v. Meymott, 14 Bea. 471. Where three trustees were appointed and one dis- claimed, and one died, the remaining one was held entitled to appoint new trustees, though the power was given to the "surviving trustee": Cafe v. Bent, 5 Hare, 24. A disclaiming trustee may reserve his power to appoint new trustees in his own place and in the place of one who had died in the settlor's life time : Re Hadley, 5 De G. & Sm. 67. If the power is given to executors and one renounces, the others may exercise it : Granville v. McNeile, 7 Ha. 156. A power for the survivors, or survivor, of two trustees "so acting in trusts, &c.," is exercisable only by the trustees continuing to act, and not by both who decline to act : Sharp V. Sharp, 2 B. & Aid. 405. Two retiring trustees cannot appoint two new trustees under a power given to surviving or contin uing trustees : Stones V. Rowton, 17 Bea, 308 ; and see Nicholson v. NEW TKUSTEES. 209 Wright, 5 W. R 431 ; Travis v. Illingworth, 2 Dr. & Sm. 344. A power to the surviving, or continuing, or other trustee or trustees, authorises an appointment by the survivor of four trustees who was desirous of retiring, he being thus "another" trustee: Gamoys v. Best, 19 Bea. 414. Where it is held that a trustee, by reason of bankruptcy.

As to the appointment of new trustees where several Sets of classes of trustees are appointed in respect of several parts of the property, see Sharp v Sharp, 2 B, & Aid. 404 ; see Re Dennis, 12 W.

But the form of a mortgage deed may, by its terms, embrace trusts which would bring the case within the Acts : Re Underwood, 3 K. & J. 745.

Unless the power expressly limits the original number, the number may be increased : MeineHzliagen v. Davis, 1 Coll. 335 ; Sands v. Nugee, 8 Sim. 130 ; and see Hill- man V. Westwood;, 24 L. J.

Where it appeared by evidence that the intention of the settlors was that there should not be less than two trustees, it was held to be a breach of trust to appoint a single one ; Hulvne v. Hulme, 2 M. & K. 682. The Court is guided by the selection of the cestuis que trust, the state of the property, and the time at which the appointment is brought to the notice of the Court, and it will not declare the appointment of a diminished number of trustees a breach of trust after the trust has for a long time been administered by them : Re Poole Bathurst, 2 Sm. & G. 173 ; and see Emmet v.

And if the original number be reduced to one, he should not retire unless the original number be filled up : Barnes v. Addy, 9 Ch. 244. In charitable trusts, a power to appoint when the Appoint- 1 . , 1 , . , , .1 ment when number is reduced to a given number may be exercised, number though the number may have fallen below that specified : reduced Attorney-General v.

In consequence of this enactment, only one deed is necessary for the appointment of new trustees and the vesting of all kinds of property in them ; for the Act allows of assignments by the continuing trustee to himself and another. Equitable interests require no assignment, if the intention to assign suffi- ciently appear ; and real estate is now considered to be properly vested by a simple conveyance : Lewin, pp_ 357—359.

After an appointment has been duly made, even where the instrument does not provide for the immediate acting of the new trustees, they may exercise a power of sale before the conveyance to them of the trust estate ; Welstead v. Colvile, 28 Bea. 537 ; but see Foley v. Wont- ner, 2 J. & W. 248. In such a case the continuing trustees can maintain an action for specific performance, and give a discharge for the purchase-money : Wai^burton v. Sandys, 14 Sim. 622.

It will be observed that the concluding words of the 27th sect, of Lord Cran worth's Act, " Every trustee appointed by the Court of Chancery, either before or after the pas- sing of this Act, shall have the same powers, authorities, and discretions, and shall in all respects act as if he had been originally nominated as trustee by the deed, will, or other instrument creating the trust," are retrospective, and get rid of the former doctrine that new trustees ap- pointed by the Court could not exercise certain of the powers entrusted to original trustees : Hall v.

But if some of the trustees refuse to act with a co- trustee, -who is in their opinion not dealing fairly, the cestui que trust can obtain the removal of the latter : Uvedale v. Ettrick, 2 Ch.

The removal of a trustee must be asked for within a reasonable time : Attorney-General v. Cuming, 2 Y. & C. C. C. 150. A refusal by trustees for no corrupt motive to exercise a purely discretionary power, is no reason for removing them : Lee v. Young, 2 Y. & C. C. C. 532. Nor was a refusal by the trustee of a request by the settlor to take steps to rectify the settlement, under which the settlor found that certain intended contingent interests arose, held to be a ground for removal : O'Keeffe v.

In the pleadings of the plaintiff to remove a trustee, it is not scandalous or impertinent to challenge every act of the trustee as misconduct, nor to impute to him any REMOVAL OP TEUSTEBS. 217 corrupt motive, nor to allege that his conduct is the vindictive consequence of some act of the cestui que trust, or of some change in his situation : Portsmouth V. Fellows, 5 Madd. 450. But it is impertinent, and may be scandalous, to state any circumstance as evidence of general malice or personal hostility : Ibid.; and see Reeves v. Baker, 13 Bea. 436; and Daniell, Prac. 290 et seq. As to the removal of trustees on the ground of bank- Bank- ruptcy, see ante, p. 209. "'^ °^" CHAPTER XXVIl. EFFECT OF TRUSTEE'S BANKKUPTCY. Tnist pro- perty not affected. Order and disposition clause. Trust pro- perty not "within clause. Principle stated. By the Bankruptcy Act, 1869, s. 15, property held by the bankrupt in trust for any other person is not divisible amongst his creditors. But "all goods and chattels being, at the commence- ment of the bankruptcy, in the possession, order, or dis- position of the bankrupt, being a trader, by the consent and permission of the true owner, of which goods and chattels the bankrupt is reputed owner, or of which he has taken upon himself the sale or disposition as owner," are comprised in the property of the bankrupt divisible among his creditors, with a proviso " that things in action other than debts due to him in the course of his trade or business shall not be deemed goods and chattels within the meaning of this clause " : s. 15, subs. 5. It is held that a trustee being the true as well as the rightful owner, trust property is not within this clause : Copeman v. Gallant, 1 P. W. 314 ; Exj). Martin, 19 Ves. 491 ; Joy v. Campbell, 1 Sch. & L. 328 ; Finkett v. Wright, 2 Hare, 120 ; Murray v. Pinkett, 12 CI. & F. 764 ; Re Bankhead, 2 K. & J, 560 ; Pennell v. Befell, 4 D. M. & G. S72;'i;xp. Geaves, 8 D.

" Whatever be the nature of the investment (as shares held by a bankrupt chairman in trust for his company), into which the trust money invested by a trustee can be traced, unless the cestuis que trust are affected by the consent which the statute contemplates for the creation of EFFECT OF TKUSTEE's BANKRUPTCY. 219 reputed ownership, it is clear that the money so invested does not pass to the assignees, but remains the property of the person for whom it was originally held : Great Eastern Railway Go. v. Turner, 8 Ch. 149, 153 ; Re Cald- well, 13 Eq. 188. But if the foi'ms of a trust are gone through merely in Fraud, order to conceal the true ownership, the exemption of trust property from the order and disposition clause is barred : Ibid. ; and see Exp. Watkins, 2 Mont. & A. 348 ; Exp. Ord, 2 Mont. & A. 724. Proof against Bankrupt Trustee. The remedy of the cestui que trust against a bankrupt Breach of trustee who has been guilty of a breach of trust, as where ing stock, stock has been improperly sold, is to prove either for the sale moneys or for the price of the stock at the date of the bankruptcy: Exp. Shakeshaft, 3 B. C. C. 197; Exp. Wat- son, 2 V. & B. 414 ; Exp. Gurner, 1 M. D. & D. 497; Ex23. FaircMld, 1 G. & J. 221 ; Exp. Montefiore, Be G. 171, 9 Jur. 562. Interest may also be proved for : Bick v. Motly, 2 M. Interest. & K. 312 ; Moons v. Be Bernales, 1 Russ. 301. If the money be traced into a mortgage, the cestui que Mortgage. trust may prove for the debt and also take the benefit of the mortgage pro tanto : Exp. Geaves, 25 L. J. Bk. 53 ; Exp. Biddulph, 3 Be G. & Sm. 587. Where the trust was to accumulate income, the whole Trust to amount of the accumulations which ought to have been fat™"" made is provable : Dornford v. Bornford, 12 Ves. 127. Where the trustee is also equitable tenant for life, his Trustee's interest is available for those in remainder in priority impounded, to other creditors : Exp. Turpin, 1 D. & C. 120 ; Exp. King, 2 M. & A. 410 ; Jacubs v. Rylance, 17 Eq. 341.

As to the right of the bankrupt to set off his interest against the debt arising from the breach of trust, see Exp. Bishop, 8 Ch. 718; Exp. Stone, ibid. 914. The debt arising from a breach of trust is a simple con- tract debt : LocJchart v. Eeilly, 1 D. & J. 464 ; but the importance of this point is for many purposes destroyed by 32 & 33 Vict. c. 46, which places debts of all kinds upon an equal footing. See post, p. 332. The debt occasioned by a breach of trust will now be a good petitioning creditor's debt : Bankruptcy Act, 1869 (32 & 33 Vict. c. 71), s. 6 ; and see Exp. Sturt, 13 Eq. 309. Where one of several trustees becomes bankrupt, the cestui que trust may prove against his estate, leaving him to recoup himself against his co-trustees : Exp. Shakeshaft, 3 B. C. C. 197 ; Exp. Beilby, 1 G. & J. 175. If all are bankrupt, proof to the extent of the debt will be allowed against all their estates : Keble v. Thompson, 3 B. C. C. 112; Exp. Poulson, De G. 79.

The discharge of a bankrupt trustee does not release him from the consequences of his breach of trust : Bankruptcy Act, 1869, s. 49. As to the effect of his bankruptcy on the liability of the trustee to attachment for non-payment of money ordered to be paid into Court, see post, p. 278. As to the removal of trustees on the ground of bank- ruptcy, and the appointment of new trustees in the place of bankrupt trustees, see ante, p. 209. CHAPTER XXVIII. TENANT FOR LIFE'S RIGHT TO POSSESSION. The trustee has no right to keep the cestui que trust out of possession of the estate : Brown v. How, Barnar- diston, 357. It is not of course that possession is given to the tenant where wiu for life under a devise. The intention of the testator is shows con- trary in- to be considered, and where the cestui que trust for life tention. was a fcTne covert, and two of the trustees were entitled in remainder, it was held that, as the testator thought fit to give the management to them, and not to entrust the estate to the permanent management of the cestui que trust, it was not for the Court to take it away from the trustees : Tidd v. Lister, 5 Madd. 429 ; but see Horner V. Wheelwright, 2 Jur. N. S. 367, where there was sepa- rate use, and Hoskins v. Campbell, W. N. 1869, 59, where the married woman was separated from her husband. But in the case of a family mansion, or where it appears Personal to be for the benefit of the cestui que trust that he should iSded.'' occupy the property personally, possession should be given to him: Tidd v. Lister, supra. A cestui que trust in possession may distrain and serve Powers of notices to quit upon tenants : ParJcer v. Manning, 7 T. ^^^!'^ ^°^ E. 537 ; Blake v. Foster, 8 T. R. 487 ; Jones v. Phipps, possession. L. K 3 Q. B. 567. And when the cestui que trust who is entitled to Gross mis- receive the rents and profits is in possession, the Court mentby will not take that receipt away, unless there has been tenant for some gross mismanagement by the cestui que trust : AttorTiey-General v. Gore, Barnard 145, 150 ; and see KIGHT OF TENANT FOR LIFE TO POSSESSION. Trustee turning out cestui que irust. Where charges to be kept down. Where tenant for life wrong- fully fells timber. Uight to vote. Perrot v. Perrot, 3 Atk. 94 ; Garth v. Cotton, I Ves. Sen. 555. Trustees who colluded with the remainderman to turn ihe tenant for life out of possession, and received the rents from the tenants, some of whom had failed to pay, were decreed to make good the whole rents which the tenants were hound to pay : Kaye v. Powel, 1 Ves. Jun. 408. Where there are payments to he made by the trustees, the tenant for life may he let into the receipt of the rents upon terms. Thus, where annuity deeds, granting a term to trustees, with powers of distress and entry, were executed by the tenant for life, he was allowed to take the rents as agent, and in the names, of the trustees, but so that they might re-enter if the annuitants became in arrear: Jenkins v. Milford, 1 J. & W. 62'.); and see Hoskins v. Campbell, W. N., 1869, 59. Or upon terms of his giving sufficient security : Baylies V. Baylies, 1 Coll. 547. In Blalce v. Bunbury, 1 Yes. Jun. 514, it will be seen that the tenant for life himself had the legal estate. An equitable tenant for life permitted by the trust to receive the rents and profits, was allowed after a wrongful fall of timber to retain possession upon an imdertaking to cut no more without the consent of the trustees : Denton V. Benton, 7 Bea. 388 ; but see Pugh v. Vaughan, 12 Bea. 517, in which, however, the trust was to "pay" the rents to the tenant for life. See further as to waste by tenant for life, notes to Garth v. Cotton, 1 W. & T. L. C. Eq. 751. The cestui que trust, whether in possession or not, is entitled to vote for members of Parliament: 6 Vict. c. 18, s. 74 ; and see Gainsford v. Freeman, L. R. 1 C. P. 129 ; Trotter v. Watson, L. E. 4 G. P. 434 ; Wallis v. Birks, L. R. 5 C. P. 222. And see Rogers on Elections, 35—40. But the trustee, as having the legal estate, votes for coroners : Reg. v. Day, 3 E. & B. 859. CHAPTER XXIX. CONVEYANCE BY TRUSTEES BY ORDER OF CESTUIS QUE TRUST. Trustees who hold the trust property for beneficiaries Duty of who are absolutely entitled must convey or transfer as co°^eT*° they direct, and if they refuse without sufficient reason must pay the costs of an action to compel them so to do : Jones V. Lewis, 1 Cox, 199 ; Willis v. Hiscox, 4 M. & Or. 197 ; Hainpshire v. Bradley, 2 Coll. 34. When the equitable owner has conveyed his interest, ^fter sale the trustee must clothe the grantee with the legal title : ^y ''^''*"^ Angier v. Stannard, 3 M. & K. 566. If cestuis que trust are to consent to a sale, the trustee Upon sale must not, without cause, refuse to sell and convey to a pur- *^ ooni>nee chaser proposed by them : Pcdairet v. Carew, 32 Bea. 564. ficiaries. If, notwithstanding the loss of a document supposed to Where have accompanied the deed vesting the estate in the j^^V'' trustee, nothing appeared to show that the beneficial in- apparent terest was less than absolute, the trustee was held bound to convey at the request of the beneficiary: Penfold v. Bouch, 4 Ha. 271. A married woman entitled to her separate use, and not Separate restrained from anticipation, may call upoa the trustees to "^*' convey to her husband or otherwise : Thorhy v. Yeats, 1 Y. & C. C. C. 438 ; and see post, 257. Under a devise to a trustee for a female's separate use without power of anticipation, with remainder to the use of her children as tenants in common in tail, with re- mainders over, the woman on becoming discovert can compel a conveyance ; for the trustee would be protector 224 CONVEYAKCE OF THE LEGAL ESTATE. luquiries by trustee.

Bare trus- tee. of the settlement only so long as the legal estate is re- quired to be in him, and the trust ceases when she becomes sui juris and discovert : Buttanshaw v. Martin, Johns. 89. The trustee must of course inquire whether the title of the cestuis que trust is complete : Goodson v. Mlisson, 3 Russ. 583. And he must show that he has tried to discover whether the title is affected by transactions which might arouse suspicion ; and if he refuses to convey without in- quiry, and the title was in fact good, he is within the rule above stated as to his liability to the costs : Firmin v. Pulham, 2 De G. & Sm. 99 ; Hannah v. Hodgson, 30 Bea. 19 ; Kin^ v. Kin^, 1 D. & J. 663 ; but see Campbell V. Home, 1 Y. & C. C. C. 664. Trustees are justified in refusing to execute a deed con- taining incorrect recitals, but not in refusing to execute one containing no recitals in a case where everyone in- terested concurs : Hartley v. Burton, 3 Ch. 368. They cannot be asked to convey the fee to a mere tenant in tail : Saunders v. Nevil, 2 Vern. 428. Nor to convey the estate piecemeal at various times : Goodson V. Mlisson, 3 Russ. 594. Or by a description other than that by which it was con- veyed to them : Ibid. It seems that a purchaser may obtain the legal estate from the trustee in an action against him without joining the beneficiaries : Goodson v. Ellisson, 3 Russ. 583 ; Hol- ford V. Fhipps, 3 Bea. 434. As to the effect of acting upon counsel's opinion in re- fusing to convey, see post, p. 232. It would seem that a trustee to whose office no duties were originally attached, but who would on the requisition of his cestuis que trust be compellable in equity to convey the estate to them or by their direction, is a " bare trustee" within the meaning of the Land Transfer Act, 1875 (38 & 39 Vict. c. 87), s. 48 : Christie v. Ovington, 1 Ch. D. 279 ; and see further as to the meaning of the term " bare trustee," Lysaght v. Edwards, 2 Ch. D. 499. CONVEYANCE BY TRUSTEES. 2,^5 A vendor of real estate, who died before conveyance and receipt of the purchase-money, was held not to be a " bare trustee " within the same section, and his heir-at-law and not his legal personal representative to be the proper person to convey : Morgan v. Swansea Urban Sanitary Authority, W. N., 1878, 179. And if the heir is an infant, there must still be an action in such a case to declare the infant a trustee, and for a vesting order : Ihid. CHAPTER XXX. CUSTODY OF TITLE-DEEDS. Uiglit of equitable tenant for life. Where rents received by trustees. Where taken out of country. Order to bring deeds in on mis- conduct. Where action pending. Misuse of deeds to obtain As an incident to the possession of tlie estate, the cestui que trust for life has a right to retain the title-deeds^ unless it is suggested that they are endangered by re- maining in such custody : Taylor v. Sparrow, 4 Giff. 706 ; Langdale v. Briggs, 8 D. M. & G. 416 ; Leathes v. Leathes, 5 Ch. D. 221. But if the trustees are to receive the rents and pay them to the tenant for life, they may retain the deeds : Garner v. Hannyngton, 22 Bea. 627 ; and see Stanford V. Roberts, 6 Ch. 310. ' Where the tenant for life had on one occasion taken the deeds out of the jurisdiction, but afterwards, when ordered, brought them into Court, they were not delivered out to him again': Jenner v. Morris, 1 Ch. 603. Turner, L. J., was iaclined to allow their delivery upon security being given by the tenant for life : lb. In a case where the equitable tenant for life was allowed to remain in possession upon terms after wrong- fully cutting timber, he was also ordered to bring the deeds into Court : Denton v. Denton, 7 Bea. 388. Where the estate is subject to a pending action, the Court will not part with the deeds in favour of the equit- able tenant for life if it sees reason for retaining them : Stanford v. Roberts, 6 Ch. 307 ; Leathes v. Leathes, 5 Ch. D. 221. Whether a trustee who delivers deeds to a tenant for life, and so enables him to make a mortgage in fee, is CUSTODY OF TITLE-DEEDS. 227 liable to those in remainder who are damnified by such mojtgage in IC6 an act, see Evans v. Bicknell, 6 Ves. 174. Any person entitled to a vested interest in remainder Action by may bring an action against the tenant for life, for the man for sole purpose of production and inspection of deeds in his Production, possession : Davis v. Bysart, 20 Bea. 414. But the Court has a discretion as to granting such relief : Lempster v. Pomfret, Amb. 154, 1 Dick. 2.38' ; Davis V. Dysart, supra. And the relief will not be granted if the title of the remainderman is not clear : Pennell v. Dysart, 27 Bea. 542. Trustees must produce all cases and opinions of counsel Cases and (not intended only for their own defence) to the cestui que "P""-'"'^- trust : Wynne v. Humberston, 27 Bea. 421. As to the liability of trustees for the safety of securities in the custody of their co- trustees, see ante, p. 100. CHAPTER XXXI. DUTY OF TRUSTEES TO KEEP ACCOUNTS AND FURNISH INFORMATION. Accounts must be ready ; must not Ire mixed up with other accounts. Costs on refusal to account. Discretion as to costs. Trustees must be constantly ready with their accounts : Hardwiclce v. Vernon, 14 Ves. 510 ; Freeman v. Fairlie, 3 Mer. 29, 43. Such accounts must be clear and distinct accounts referring to the trust property ; and if the trustee mix the trust accounts with his own, he cannot therefore refuse to produce his own books ; and if he have partners, and they have allowed him to use the partnership books for the purpose, or have used any of the trust-money in their trade, the partnership books must be produced : Freeman V. Fairlie, supra. If a trustee has allowed his co-trustee to keep accounts, which turn out to be falsified, they will bind him : Horton V. Broclclehurst, 29 Bea. 504. If the inability or refusal of the trustee to account renders a suit necessary, he must pay the costs of it : Pcarse v. Green, 1 J. & W. 135 ; Netuton v. Asliew, 11 Bea, 145, 152 ; Jefferys v. Marshall, W. N., 1870, 227. The matter of costs, however, is within the discretion of the Court, and if there has been no actual misconduct, the Court may limit the payment of costs to the period of the bringing the action, or of the hearing, or otherwise according to the circumstances of the case : Springett v. Dashwood, 2 Giff. 521 ; 7 Jur. N. S. 93 ; and see Ottley V. Gilby, 8 Bea. GO 2 ; Thompson v. Clive, 11 Bea. 475 ; While V, Jackson, 15 Bea, 191, ACCOUNTS — FUENISHING INFORMATION. 2,2!) So where there was a refusal to account except upon Refusal .

Trotuer, W. N., 1867, 83. By 15 & 16 Vict., c. 86, s. 54, where accounts are re- Directions quired to be taken, the Court may give special directions taking as to the mode of taking and vouching them ; particularly a^eouits. that books of account may be taken as pvimd facie evi- dence of the truth of their contents. Under this enactment, old trust accounts to which the Admitting cestui que trust had had access, were allowed to be taken counts as primd facie correct : Banks v. Cartwright, 15 W. R. ^^l^™* 417. ^™ ■ It is also the duty of trustees to afford to their cestuis FurnisMng que trust accurate information as to the condition and ^^^^_ disposition of the trust property : Clarke v. Ormonde, 1 Jac. 120 ; Walker v. Symonds, 3 Swans. 58. If trustees withhold information as to the nature of the title of their cestuis que trust, so that the latter are unable to put into force rights which they have against third parties, the trustees must recoup them the loss occasioned by their neglect to give the necessary information : Bur- rows V. Walls, 3 D. M. & G. 233. CHAPTER XXXII. PAYMENT BY TRUSTEES TO CESTUIS QUE TEUST. — RE- LEASES. — INDEMNITY. — LIABILITY FOR CO-TRUSTEES. — DE FACTO TRUSTEES. Trustees are justified in refusing to pay over the trust fund to persons claiming it beneficially, or to those claiming under them, if by so doing they would incur a responsibility; and unless the motive of the trustees is obviously vexatious, they have a right to the protection of the Court in the execution of the trust, and if a reasonable question arises as to the distribution of the property, to obtain that protection without being liable for costs : Taylor v. GlanvUle, 3 Madd. 178 ; Curteis v. Candler, 6 Madd. 123 ; Ooodson v. Ellisson, 3 Euss. 583. Trustee's This right to costs does not apply to an appeal by the appeal. trustees : Rowland v. Morgan, 13 Juv. 23 ; in the case of bankruptcy trustees, JtJxp. Angerstein, 9 Ch. 479 ; and ofiicial liquidators, Buckley, 227. Fraudulent A trustee who on untenable grounds withholds trust money from his cestui que trust, may commit what in equity may be considered a fraud, without being charge- able with personal fraud : Thortison v. Eastwood, L. R 2 App. Ca. 215. Refusal If a trustee refuses to pay without the sanction of the ancTof""' Court, merely from ignorance and not from a bad motive, law. he will not be made to pay costs : Knight v. Martin, 1 R. & My. 70. So, it being proved that trustees did not know the Scotch law, by which others than those to whom they paid were entitled, they were held not to be liable for paying ■withhold ing. PAYMENT TO CESTUIS QUE TRUST. 231 to those entitled by English law : Leslie v. Baillie, 2 Y. & C. C. C. 91. An absolute discretion to postpone payment of shares of Discretion ■ 1 • 1 T p 1 -1 *° postpone residue may be good against the creditors of the residuary payment, legatees : see Chambers v.

A trustee, paying on an erroneous supposition that the Recovery of recipient is immediately entitled, may recover the amount in error.^ out of future income or other trust property of the person so wrongfully paid : Livesey v. Livesey, 3 Russ. 287 ; Dibbs V. Goren, 11 Bea. 483 ; Eaves v. Hichson, 30 Bea. 136. And if a share in respect of which the mistake was Against made has been assigned for value, the assignee's interest ^Tm^^ is also subject to recoup the money : Dibbs v.

If, on the footing of a supposed illegitimacy, the title of the cestui que trust is disputed and denied by the trustee, and the former is thereby induced to accept from the trustee a smaller sum than that to which he is entitled under the will, and by deed to release the trustee from the payment of his share, equity will not allow such a trans- action to stand : Thomson v. Eastwood, L. E. 2 App. Ca. 215. Trustees are not excused from the consequences of a wrong payment because they have acted on the advice of counsel, however eminent : Doyle v. Blake, 2 Sch. & L. 243 ; Peers v. Geeley, 15 Bea. 211 ; Devey v. Thornton, 9 Ha. 232 ; Re Knight, 27 Bea. 45, 49 ; Boulton v. Beard, 3 D. M. & G. 611 ; and see Re Gull, 20 Eq. 561 ; and Rogers v. Ingham, 3 Ch. D. 351. But if they have acted bond fide, costs would probably not be ordered against them in such a case : Angler v. Stannard, 3 M. & K. 566. Trustees must not refuse to pay because the beneficiary to receive is dead, and the money is receivable by his personal representative, who might misapply it : Smith v. Bolden, 33 Bea. 262 ; Hayes v. Oatley, 14 Eq. 1. Where the donee of a general power appoints the property to certain persons beneficially, the original trustees are bound to act in carrying the appointment into execution : Re PhilbricJc, 34 L. J.

But if the donee appoints the propertyto trustees, those trustees are entitled to receive the property to be held upon the trusts declared by the donee : Re Philh'ick, 34 L. J. Ch. 369 ; Hayes v.

Under s. 50 of 15 & 16 Vict., c. 86, the Court will declare the rights of parties in an action which does not seek consequential directions. This enactment has been held not to apply where no consequential relief could be given : Jackson v. Turnley, 1 Drew. 617 ; Rooke v. Kensington, 2 K. & J. 753 ; Bristoiu V. Whitmore, 4 K. & J. 743. But this view has been considered to be too narrow : Cox V. Barker, 3 Ch. D. 370. Future reversionary or contingent rights will not be declared under the section : Langdale v. Briggs, 8 D.

When trustees have received notice of assignments they cannot require a release from the assignor before paying the assignee, and they must not refuse payment if tho acts of the beneficiary have raised mere equities in which they are not concerned ; Re Foligno, 32 Bea. 131. Those entitled by assignment of equitable interests can obtain perfect security, besides giving notice, in three ways ; by obtaining a distringas on the funds ; by having their deed, if any, endorsed on the settlement ; or, by obtaining a transfer of the funds into Court : Phipps V.

A release obtained by a misrepresentation by the trustee of the rights of the cestui que trust, will be set aside : ThoTnson v. Eastwood, L. R. 2 App. Ca. 21.5. If the cestui que trust refuses to admit that the account is correct, and to give a discharge, the trustees would be justified in having the accounts taken by the Court, though that course is not to be encouraged as beneficial to the cestuis que trust in general : Ibid. It has also been declared that in the case of a declared trust, where the trust is apparent on the face of the deed, and the trustee is paying either the interest or the capital of the fund, if he is paying in strict accordance with the trusts, he has no right to require a release under seal : King v. Mullins, 1 Drew. 308 ; and see Warter V. Anderson, 11 Hare, 301. But where there is no deed, and only a verbal expres- sion of the trusts, and nothing to show the amount of the trust fund, the trustee may demand a release : King v. Mullins, supra. Especially if he has been aslsed to do what is not iu strict accordance with the trusts : Ihid. See on this case Lewin, p. 314.

By s. 31 of Lord St. Leonards' Act (22 & 23 Vict.^ c. 35), Statutory every trust instrument, without prejudice to the clauses ™ ^™"' ^' actually contained therein, is now deemed to contain a clause to the effect that the trustees shall be respectively chargeable only for such moneys and securities as they shall respectively receive, notwithstanding their respec- tively signing any receipt for the sake of conformity, and shall be accountable only for their own acts, receipts, neglects, or defaults, and not for those of each other, nor for any banker, broker, or other person with whom any trust moneys or securities may be deposited. It will be seen from the cases cited below that in effect. Effect of even before the Act, the doctrine of the Court afforded as ^f^^ -^ much protection, as is secured by the clause in the Act or clause. in its usual form in settlements or wills to non-receiving trustees : Worrall v, Harford, 8 Ves, 8 ; Dawson v, Clarke, 238 INDEMNITY — LIABILITY FOR CO-TRUSTEES. 18 Ves. 254; Bone v.

The principles on which the Court acts with regard to the liability of trustees for the acts of their co-trustees are now to be considered.

If trustees by conduct or acquiescence such as defined Exceptions in Wilkins v. Hogg, (8 Jur. N. S. 25), as stated above acqilie^s- (p. 238), contribute to the loss by allowing money to get <=ence, &c. into the hands of their co-trustees, and by taking no steps to see that it is properly secured, they will be chargeable : Thompson v.

It should be remembered that an executor who assents to, and sets apart, a specific legacy, becomes a trustee, and is liable to the consequences of his co-executor's default, and is subject to the above rules : Phillipo v. Munnings, 2 M. & Cr. 309 ; Egbert v. Butter, 21 Bea. 560 ; but not where the residue is unascertained : Davenport v. Stafford, 14 Bea. 331.

There is not necessarily culpable negligence in leaving title deeds or securities in the hands of one of the trustees, who in receiving interest, &c., will be regarded as a trustee liable for breach of trust, and not as an agent of the other trustees : Cottam v. Eastern Counties Rail. Co., 1 J. & H. 243 ; Mendes v. Guedalla, supra. An arrangement that each of two trustees should retain a moiety of bonds transferable by delivery is improper, and each is liable in case of the other misappropriating those in his custody : Lewis v. Nobbs, 8 Ch. & D. 595. But where a trustee is a debtor to the estate on an equitable mortgage by deposit of deeds, which his co- trustee allows him to retain, the latter is answerable : Candler v. Tillett, 22 Bea. 257. As to the power of one of several trustees with deeds in his hands to make a title to a purchaser without notice, see Ibid. Of the Liability of Voluntary and De Facto Trustees. When the relation of trustee and cestui que trust is once created, it matters not that the trustees have become sq VOLUNTAEY AND DE FACTO TRUSTEES. 241 merely from motives of kindness, or have themselves given the fund which they have afterwards lost by a bad invest- ment : Drosier v.

If the nature of the transaction affords intrinsic evidence that the executor on a mortgage or sale by him is not acting in the execution of his duty, but is committing a breach of trust, as where the consideration for the mort- gage or sale is a personal debt due from the executor to the mortgagee or purchaser, there the mortgagee or purchaser, being a party to the breach of trust, does not hold the property discharged from the trusts, but equally subject to the payment of debts and legacies as it would have been in the hands of the executor : Watkins v. Cheek, 2 S. & S. 205 ; but see Corser v. Cartwright, L. R. 7 H. L. 731. Persons who, as commercial correspondents of executors, and knowing that stock remitted to them, in payment of a debt due by the executors, was subject to the trusts of a will, are thus personally liable to those entitled under the will : Wilson v. Moore, 1 M. & K. 143, 146. See further as to the right to follow assets disposed of by executors, Mead v. Orrery, 3 Atk. 238 ; Hill v. Simpson, 7 Ves. 152, and Williams, Exors., p. 934. In all cases where the purchaser cannot make out a title except by a deed which leads him to another fact involving notice of a trust, he is not allowed to set up the defence of purchase for value without notice of that fact, but is presumed to be cognisant of it ; for it is crassa negligentia that he did not discover it : Plumh v. Fluiit, 2 Anst. 438 ; Jackson v. Eoive, 2 S. & S. 472, 4 Russ. 514.

All property thus circumstanced is equally recoverable from the trustee in bankruptcy of the factor, as it was from the factor himself before his bankruptcy : Taylor v. Plumer, 3 M. & S. 562, 573, 574 ; Frith v. Cartland, 2 H. & M. 417. If the property in its original state and form was covered with a trust in favour of the principal, no change of that state and form can divest it of such trust, or give the factor, or those who represent him in right, any other or more valid claim in respect to it, than they had before such change : Ibid, at p. 574. As between cestui que trust and trustee, and all parties claiming under the trustee, otherwise than by purchase for value without notice, all property belonging to a trust, however it may be changed or altered in its nature or character, and all the fruit of such property, whether in its original or its altered state, continues to be subject to, or affected by, the trust : Pennell v. Deffell, 4 D. M. & G. 372. Where a trustee employs a broker to sell trust stock, giving him full notice thai it is trust stock, and to invest the proceeds on behalf of the trust estate, the money arising from the sale is trust money, and by no bargain between the trustee and the broker, nor by any rule of the Stock Exchange, can it be made anything but trust money, liable to be followed as such, if it can be traced, the difficulty of doing which does not affect the principle : Ex'p. Cooke, 4 Ch. D. 123, following Taylor v. Plur^ier, 3 M. & S. 562. It seems, moreover, that even if there had been no notice to the broker that the money was trust money, the rule in Taylor v. Plumer would have applied to this case : Ihid. The difficulty which arises is a difficulty of fact and not of law, and the dictum that money has no ear-mark must be understood in the same way, viz., as predicated only of an undivided and undistinguishable mass of current WRONGFUL CONVERSION — TRACING TRUST FUNDS. 301 money. But money in a bag or otherwise kept apart from other money, guineas or other coin marked (if the fact were so) for the purpose of being distinguished, are so far ear-marked as to fall within the rule on this subject, which applies to every other description in the hands of the factor [or trustee] or his general legal representative : Taylor v. Plumer, 3 M. & S. 575. The general use of cheques now makes it more difficult to trace money, as the cheques go into a banking account, so that the sum is mixed up with other moneys of the customer. But the money, so far as it can be traced as the property of the client, is covered by the reason of the thing, and the authority of Taylor v. Plumer : per Bram- well, L. J., in Ex2x Cooke, 4 Ch. D. 128. The guiding principle is that a trustee cannot assert a Where ■ 1 ^ T ■ xp 1 1 trust fund title 01 his own to trust property, it he destro3's a lost. trust fund by dissipating it altogether, there remains nothing to be the subject of a trust. But so long as the trust property can be traced and followed into other property into which it has been converted, that remains subject to the trust : Frith v. Oartland, 2 H. & M. 417, 420. The sole question is whether the property can or cannot be identified : Ibid., p. 421 ; see Liebman v. Harcourt, 2 Mer. 513 ; Harford v. Lloyd, 20 Bea. 310. If a man mixes trust funds with his own the whole will Mixing be treated as the trust property, except so far as he may moneys be able to distinguish what is his own : Frith v. Cartland, "^^^ 2 H. & M. 420 ; Cook v. Addison, 7 Eq. 471. mmeyl An injunction may be obtained to restrain the transfer injunction of stock by the trustee [or person affected by the rule], !" ™^*"^^™ upon evidence that it is trust money, at least until the trustee have distinguished any part which is not trust property : Chedworth v. Edwards, 8 Ves. 46 ; Lupton V. White, 15 Ves. 432. But no injunction can be obtained in a case where the Extinction trust fund has been paid into a bank to the trustee's own °* f^^ , account, and by the application of the rule in Clayton's in Clayton's ac2 WRONGFUL CONVERSION — TRACING TRUST FUNDS. Jfoney paid into bank. Liability of banker. Money in bank at death of trustee. Money in bank how appro- priated. Banker is not trus- tee. Case (1 Mer. 572) infra, the fund has been extinguished : Brown v. Adams, 4 Ch. 764. A trustee who pays money into his own account at his banker's is liable to his cestui que trust for the moneys he has so paid in, for he has no right to mix the trust moneys with his own, or to subject his cestui que trust to the difficulty of separating them : Massey v. Banner, IJ. & W. 241. The liability of the banker depends upon whether or not he has notice that the account is a trust account ; and he may be fixed with such notice by the nature of the heading of the account : Pannell v. Hurley, 2 Coll. 241 ; Bridgman v. Gill, 24 Bea. 302. So if a person, keeping an undoubted trust account, draws upon it, and pays the proceeds into his private account, the bankers may be liable for his breach of trust : Bodenhavi v. Hoslcyns, 2 T). M. & G. 903 ; and see Exp. Kingston, 6 Ch. 632. And if a trustee pays into a bank trust money, and also his own private mone}', to an account not marked or dis- tinguished as a trust account, that does not prevent the balance at his death being properly distributed between the trust and his own estate : Pennell v. Deffell, 4 D. M. & G. 372. The result of tracing the money standing to the ac- count into the trust, is however subject to the rule that money drawn out of the account is to be applied or ap- propriated to the earlier items on tlie opposite side of the account, so that it might well happen that no part of the balance would represent the trust fund originally paid in : Clayton's Case, 1 Mer. 572 ; Brown v. Adams, 4 Cli. 764. It must be borne in mind that there is no fiduciary relation between the banker and his customer : Foley v. Hill, 2 H. L. C. 28. And, regarding their true position as that of debtor and creditor, " by every payment which he makes, the banker discharges so much of the debt which he first contracted. If that debt arose from trust moneys WRONGFUL CONVEUSION — TRACIKQ TRUST MONEYS. 303 paid in by the customer, so much of tbose trust moneys is paid off, and unless otherwise invested on account of the trust, falls into the customer's general estate, and is lost to the trust, because it cannot be distinguished from the general estate of which it formed part. If, on the other hand, the earliest debt due from the banker arose from the customer's own money paid in by him, that debt is pro tanto discharged, and the trust moneys subsequently paid in remain unaffected. The same principle runs through the whole account : each sum drawn out goes to discharge the earliest debt due from the banker, which is remaining iinpaid ; and thus, when it is ascertained what moneys have been paid in belonging to the trust, it be- comes clear to what portion of the balance which remains, the trust estate is entitled " : Pennell v.

Money paid by order into Court by trustees of a settle- ment, but being in fact money subject to the trusts of another settlement, cannot be followed into the hands of the Court by the beneficiaries under the latter settlement: Thorndike v. Hunt, 3 D. & J. 564. The rules as to following trust funds in the hands of a defaulting trustee apply against his trustee in bankruptcy as fully as against the trustee himself ; and the circum- stance that the trust fund was acquired on the eve of bankruptcy, and when the bankrupt was about to abscond with it as well as with money of his own, gives no equity to the creditors as against the cestuis que trust: Frith v. Cartland, 2 H. & M. 417. Following land pur- chased by trustees. By tenant for life of trust funds. Lien. Following Trust Money into Land. If the trust money have been invested by the trustee in the purchase of land it may be followed by the cestuis que trust into the land ; and whatever doubts may have been formerly entertained on the subject, a claim of this sort may be supported by parol evidence : Lane v. Dighton, Amb. 409 ; Lench v. Lench, 10 Ves. 511 ; Hopper v. Conyers, 2 Eq. 549. The land may be made subject to the requirements of the trusts in the hands of the tenant for life, who pays for it in part with trust moneys directed to be re-invested in land, and procures a conveyance of it to himself instead of, as in a case where the amount so paid out of trust funds was clearly ascertainable, to the trustees : Price v. Blake- more, 6 Bea. 607. In such a case the Court declares a lien on the purchased FOLLOWING TRUST MONEY INTO LAND. 305 lands to the extent of the trust moneys traced into it : Ibid.; Hopper v. Conyers, 2 Eq. 549. Where a man is under an obligation to lay out £30,000 in lands, and he lays out part as he can find purchases, ■which are attended with all material circumstances, it is more natural to suppose these purchases made with regard to the obligation than without it ; more natural to ascribe it to the obligation he lies under than to a voluntary act independent of the obligation : Lechmere v. Lechmere, Ca. t, Talb. For. 80 ; Sugd. V. & P., App. I., 1117, 11th ed. Thus, if there are no facts proved which show that the purchases were made for any other purpose, the trusts will attach to the land : Lewis v. Madocks, 8 Ves. 150 ; Mathias v. Mathias, 3 Sm. & G. 552. A tenant for life taking a conveyance in fee to himself of lands so purchased, without any subsequent declaration of trust or settlement, does not interfere with the rights of remaindermen : Beacon v. Smith, 3 Atk. 323, 326 ; Mathias V. Mathias, supra.

But unless there is a ground of presumption, it does not When pur- follow that a purchase even by a trustee for purchase is *^^/"^°' made in execution of his trust : Perry v. Phelips, 4 Ves. 116. under Such a presumption may arise where the money laid out is very nearly identical with the fund subject to the trust : Ibid.; and see Sowden v. Sowden, 1 B. C. C. 581 ; Tubbs V. Broadwood, 2 R. & My. 487. But " the mere fact that [the trustee] had trust money in his hands when he made the purchases is not sufficient to attach the trusts on the lands bought with his own money:" per M. K of Ireland in Sealy v. Stawell, I. R. 2 Eq. 347. CHAPTER XL. THE ENFORCEMENT OF TRUSTS AS AFFECTED BY STATUTES OF LIMITATION, DELAY, AND ACQUIESCENCE.

A fund established for granting pensions to certain members of the Civil Service in India was vested in persons appointed to manage it, and who were called the " trustees of the Fund." It was held that these persons were not mere trustees for the association, but express trustees, and that the members of the Fund were cestuis que trust, against whom the Statute did not run : Ed- wards V.

Charges and Trusts to pay Money or Legacies. By s. 10 of the Keal Property Limitation Act, 1874 (which will come into force on the 1st January, 1879), it is enacted that " after the commencement of this Act no action, suit, or other proceeding shall be brought to recover any su7)i of money or legacy charged upon or payable out of any land or rent, at law or in equity, and secured by an express trust, or to recover any arrears of rent, or of interest in respect of any sum of money or legacy so charged, or payable, and so secured, or any damages in respect of such arrears, except within the time within which the same would be recoverable if there were not any such trust : " 37 & 38 Vict. c. 57. A trustee, under an express trust, of money, or of a legacy charged on land, will therefore under this section be entitled to the benefit of s. 8 of the same Act, by which it is enacted that money charged on land at law or in equity, or any legacy, shall be deemed to have been satisfied after twelve years next after a present right to receive the same shall have accrued to some person capable of giving a dis- charge for or release of the same, unless in the meantime some part of the principal money, or some interest thereon, shall have been paid, or some acknowledgment of the right thereto shall have been given in writing signed by the person by whom the same shall be payable, or his agent, to the person entitled thereto, or his agent ; and in such case within twelve years after such payment or acknow- ledgment.

Though trusts are excepted from the operation of the Trusts by Statutes of Limitations, the rule holds good only between ta^erby" trustees and cestuis que trust; and though a trustee laches, cannot set up the Statute against his cestuis que trust, a mere trustee by implication, and as such affected by an equity, can be proceeded against only within a reasonable time, for both Courts of Law and of Equity preserve an analogy to the Statutes of Limitations : Toiunshend v. Townshend, IB. C. C. 551 ; Bonney V. Ridgard, 1 Cox, 145 ; Andrew v. Wrigley, 4 B. C. C. 125 ; Beckford v. Wade, 17 Yes. 87, 96 ; Chalmer v. Bradley, 1 J. & W. 51 ; Clanricarde v.

Lord Annesley (2 Sch. & L. 630), Lord Eedesdale says that " the Statute of Limitations, applying itself to certain legal remedies, for recovering the possession of lands, for recovering of debts, &c., equity, which in all cases follows the law, acts on legal titles, and legal demands, according to matters of conscience which arise, and which do not admit of the ordinary legal remedies : nevertheless, in thus administer- ing justice, according to the means afforded by a Court of Equity, it follows the law : and see Salter v. Gavanagh, 1 Dr. & "Walsh. 668 ; and per Lord Westbury in Knox v. Gye, L. E. 5 H. L. 674. Thus wherever the legislature has limited a period for Analogy proceedings at law, equity will in analogous cases consider t„ry ^^^' the equitable rights as bound by the same limitation : Hovenden v.

Evans, 1 Y. & C. 434 ; and see Sugden, Essay of the Eeal Property Statutes, p. 99. The analogy of the Statute of Limitations cannot be set up by an executor in answer to a claim founded on a breach of trust by his testator ; and Courts of Equity are not, in dealing with equitable debts, bound by the Statute of 21 Jac. 1, c. 16, providing a six years' limitation to a simple contract debt, or a twenty years' limitation to a specialty debt, of a testator: Baker v. Martin, 5 Sim. 380 ; Story V. Gape, 2 Jur. N. S. 706 ; Ohee v. Bisho'p, 1 D. F. & J. 137 ; Brittlebank v. Goodwin, 5 Eq. 555, in which Dunne T. Doran, 13 I. Eq. R. 545, and Brereton t.

The liability of the executor, or devisee of a testator, or the administrator or heir of an intestate, does not depend on any new assumpsit, but originates from, and depends entirely on, the liability of the testator or intestate, and a demand founded on such, a liability for a breach of trust or misappropriation committed by him is not barred by the lapse of six years after his death : Obee v. Bishop, supra ; Brittlebank v. Goodwin, 5 Eq. 553. Where there is a trust, whether for raising portions or annuities, and the legal estate remains iindisturbed in the trustees, the parties who have that estate may immediately recover possession, and the cestui que trust's right is saved by the 25th section : Young v.

Mr. Lewin further ob- serves that " where the subject-matter of the trust is a personal debt, it seems difficult to avoid the conclusion that where the trustee is barred the cestui que trust is barred also," and that " the proper remedy of the cestui que trust is to proceed at law in the name of the trustee," and further, " that the same resulb would seem to follow where the subject-matter of the trust is land, and the possession has been held adversely to both the trustee and cestui que trust, without any species of privity, as when the trustee is disseised ....

Gray, 1 Y. & C. C. C. 205 ; Purcell v. Blenner- hassett, 3 J. & L. 24 ; Byron v. Cooper, 11 CI. & F. 556. Inasmuch as the Statute of Limitations does not merely bar the right to recover land, but takes away the title to the land, it may be raised by demurrer : Dawkins v. Penrhyn, 6 Ch. D. 319. Presump- tion from delay. Belay and Acquiescence. — Stale Demands. It is provided by s. 27 of the Statute of Limitations of 2 & 3 Will. 4, c. 27 (which section is not repealed by the Real Property Limitation Act, 1874), that nothing in the former Act contained shall be deemed to interfere with any rule or jurisdiction of Courts of Equity in refusing relief on the ground of acquiescence or otherwise, to any person whose right to bring a suit may not be barred by virtue of that Act. After a great length of time, and in the absence of all explanation accounting for the delay in asserting the claim, every presumption, including that of actual payment, must be made in favour of the person originally bound to pay : Pickering v. Stamford, 2 Yes. Jun. 283 ; Pattison v. Hawkesworth, 10 Bea. 375. But where there is a statutory bar, mere length of time, short of the period fixed by the Statute, and unaccom- panied by any other circumstances, is not of itself a suffi- DELAY — ACQUIESCENCE — STALE DEMANDS. 317 cient ground to presume a release or extinguishment of a right : Eldridge v. Knott, Cowp. 214. Where cestuis que trust, knowing their rights, see the Standing estate in the possession of others, and improving at their expense, lie by and make no claim for many years, the Court would be bound to pi-esume a release or waiver or an agreement that it should be enjoyed as it has been : Chalmer v. Bradley, 1 J. & W. 51, 65. Calling for accounts is always much discouraged after Claim for the death of the accounting party, if he have lived long ^fter death enough to have accounted in his lifetime. Therefore, ?^ account- where a cestui que trust has lain by after his majority for a long period (e.g., 19 years), the relief will not be granted in the absence of very special circumstances : Chalmer v. Bradley, 1 J. & W. 51, 62 ; Huet v. Fletcher, 1 Atk. 467; Gregory v. Gregory, G. Coop. 201 ; Campbell v. Walker, 5 Ves. 678 ; Hercy v. Dinwoody, 2 Ves. Jun. 87; Varices v. White, 11 Ves. 226 ; Blair v. Ormond, 1 De G. & Sm. 428 ; Payne v. Evens, 18 Eq. 356 ; and see ante, pp. 194, 195. So in the case of gross laches on the part of the cestui Claim after que trust, even under an express trust, a Court of Equity resistance will not allow a dormant claim to be set up when the destroyed, means of resisting it, if unfounded, have perished, and would therefore not cast a burden of proving such an affir- mative as that forty years ago cottage rents were properly collected, when the witnesses who might have proved the fact have long ago been dead : Bright v. Legerton, 2 D. F. & J. 606, 617. In such cases the very forbearance to make the demand Presump- affords a presumption that the claimant is conscious it assent, was satisfied, or that he intended to relinquish it : Pickering v. Stamford, 2 Ves. Jun. 332 ; for length of time, where it does not operate as a statutory or positive bar, operates simply as evidence of assent or acquiescence : Life Association v. Siddal, 3 D. F. & J. 68, 72. But although the rule is that the onus lies on the party harden of relying on acquiescence to prove the facts from which the 318 DELAr — ^ACQUIESCENCE — STALE DEMAND. Commou mistake.

Slight delay after notice. consent of the cestui que trust is to be inferred, there may be cases in which, from great lapse of time, such facts might be and ought to be presumed : Life Association v. Siddal, S D. F. & J. 77. In tlie case of common mistake between the trustee and the cestui que trust the latter is not barred by acqui- escence ; Randall v. Errington, 10 Ves. 428 ; Morse v. Royal, 12 Ves. 355. If an account has been kept by the trustee of old trans- actions, the cestui que trust after a long time coming for relief against him must admit its correctness, or take upon himself the burden of proving its inaccuracy ; Ghalmer V. Bradley, 1 J. & W. 51, 65 ; Portlock v. Gardner, 1 Hare, 594. But though the Court will not, after a long lapse of time, direct trustees to account for a trust fund which the facts show has been duly distributed, it being the duty of the trustees to preserve evidence of that distribution, the Cotirt will not give the trustees their costs if they have neglected so to do : Payne v. Evens, 18 Eq. 356, 367. Where the relation of trustee and cestui que trust has continued — the transactions between them not closed, and the delay of the claim attributable to the trustee not having given that information to his cestui que trust to which he was entitled, and accounted with him, as the Court is of opinion he ought to have done, — no time will preclude an account from the commencement of the trust : Wedderburn v. Wedderhurn, 4 M. & Cr. 41, 53. Acquiescence imports knowledge ; for a cestui que trust cannot be bound by acquiescence unless he has been fully informed of his rights and of all the material facts and circumstances of the case : Cholmondeley v. Clinton, 2 Mer. 362 ; Marker v. Marker, 9 Ha. 16 ; Life Association V. Siddal, 3 D. F. & J. 74 ; Farrant v. Blanchford, 1 D. J. & Sm. 119. It is not necessarily a case of acquiescence by a cestui que trust who knows that the trustees have committed a breach of trust, if he nevertheless does not come imme- DELAY — ACQUIESCEKCE — STALE DEMANDS. 319 diately to complain of it, provided he has not connived at or received any benefit from the breach of trust : Phillipson V. Oatty, 7 Ha. 516 ; Hanchett v. Briscoe, 22 Bea. 49 G. This might be otherwise if he stood by and permitted another cestui que trust to misrepresent his interests, in order to induce the trustees to commit the breach of trust : Evans v. Bichnell, 6 Ves, 174 ; and see Phillipson V. Gatty, supra. As to the extent to which acquiescence will bind the Acquies- cence by representative of a deceased partner who delays the asser- executor tion of his rights to participate in the advantage of "f deceased renewals of leases by the continuing partners, see ante, pp. 76, 77. And it is to be observed that greater indulgence is Creditors, to be allowed to a body of persons, e.g., creditors, in asserting their rights, than to an individual, see ante, p. 195. The rules upon the subject of stale demands which apply Stale de- to ordinary cases, if they apply at all, do not apply with "'^bst equal force to cases of express trusts. They are counter- express vailed by the express duty incumbent upon the trustee to apply the trust funds according to the trusts ; but the Court will modify the account against trustees where there has been a delay or acquiescence on the part of the cestui que trust, and perhaps presume a release or abandonment of the right by the cestui que trust : Knight v. Bowyer, 2 D. & J. 421, 443. A cestui que trust under an express trust, whose Where interest is reversionary, is not bound to assert his title jeversion- until it comes into possession (as to which see s. 5 of the ^^y. Act of 2 & 3 Will. 4, c. 27, which will be replaced by s. 2 of the Real Property Limitation Act, 1874) ; but the mere circumstance that he is not bound to assert his title does not bear upon the question of his assent to a breach of trust ; he is not less capable of giving such assent when his interest is in reversion than when it is in possession ; whether he has done so is a question to be determined on the facts of each particular case : Life Association v. 320 ACQUIESCENCE — PO VEKT Y — FBAUD, Siddal, 3 D. F. & J. 58, 73 ; compare Thompson v. Simp- son, 1 Dr. & "War. 459, 489 ; Roberts v. Tunstall, 4 Hare, 257, 265 ; Mehrtens v. Andreivs, 3 Bea. 72, 76 ; Browne V. Gross, 14 Bea. 105 ; Lewis v. Rees, 3 K. & J. 132. But where the trust is definite, a clear breach of trust cannot be held to have been sanctioned or concurred in by the mere knowledge and non-interference on the part of the cestui que trust before his interest has come into possession ; Life Association v. Siddal, supixo ; see March V. Russell, 3 M. & Cr. 31. Thus, where the interest was contingent on failure of issue of a tenant for life, time was held not to have run against the remainderman until after the death of the tenant for life : Butler v. Garter, 5 Eq. 276. Where an expectant tenant for life in remainder sees a tenant for life in possession cut timber, and not only takes no step to prevent it during his life, but does not for nearly twenty years after his death seek to make his estate liable for those acts, a Court of Equity will not afford relief to the tenant for life in remainder : Sarcourt V. White, 28 Bea. 303, 308. Poverty. Relief will not be granted to a person who has slept upon his rights for an unreasonable length of time, though he allege that the fraud in question has left him in dis- tressed circumstances : Hovenden v. Annesley, 2 Sch. & L. 639. And where the equity to rescind a transaction depends wholly upon the nature of the transaction, as a sale of a reversionary interest (no misrepresentation, concealment, or ignorance of facts being relied upon), the sole fact of the poverty of the claimant is not enough to prevent time from running against the presumption of his acquiescence : Roberts v. Tunstall, 4 Hare, 257, 269. Fraud. Fraud: j^ eveiy case of a concealed fraud, the right of any person to bring a suit in equity for the recovery of any land or rent of which he, or any person through whom he STATUTE OP LIMITATIONS — FEAUD. '3?- 1 claims, may have been deprived by such fraud, shall be deemed to have first accrued at and not before the time at which such fraud shall or with reasonable diligence might have been first known or discovered ; provided that nothing in this clause contained shall enable any owner of lands or rents to have a suit in equity for the recovery of such lands or rents, or for setting aside any conveyance of such lands or rents on account of fraud against any bond fide purchaser for valuable consideration who has not assisted in the commission of such fraud, and who at the time that he made the purchase did not know and had no reason to believe that any such fraud had been committed : 3 & 4 Wm. 4, c. 27, s. 26, which section is not affected by the Real Property Limitation Act, 1874. The principle of this enactment was that of the Court of Chancery, under which, if a trustee is in possession and does not execute his trust, the possession of the trustee is the possession of the cestui qiie trust; and if the only circumstance is, that he does not perform his trust, his possession operates nothing as a bar, because his posses- sion is according to his title ; but where a person who is in possession by fraud, is not in the ordinary sense of the word a trustee, but is to be constituted a trustee by a decree of a court of equity founded on fraud, his posses- sion in the meantime is adverse to the title of the person who impeaches the transaction on the ground of fraud, and time will run from the time when the circumstances of the fraud were discovered : Hovenden v. Annestey, 2 Sch. & Lef. 633. In a case in which the cestui que trust alleged, after Inquiries forty years, that he had only lately discovered that the fra^ycil'™ trustee had kept the estate as his own, stating that he covered. had paid the testator's debts, inquiries were directed whether the cestui que trust had notice of the facts, whether he had released, and as to the value of the estate as compared with the debts : Chal/tner v. Bradley, IJ. & W. 51. But this relief will be much curtailed in a case where Case of „ suspicion only. 322 STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS — FRAUD. Fraudulent conceal- ment of rights. Keceiver of trust Property is a truste®- Borrower of trust- money. Particeps criminis. Want of intellect no excuse. the plaintiff's case rests upon suspicioa and is not clearly made out, and is submitted to the Court after an unrea- sonably long delay : Pennell v. Home, 3 Drew. 337. Time will not run against a person who has been care- fully brought up in the notion that he could not, owing to the existence of an elder legitimate brother (who, how- ever, was in fact illegitimate), come into possession, until with reasonable diligence he might have ascertained that he had been the victim of such concealed fraud : Vane v. Vane, 8 Ch. 383 ; and see Ghetham v. Hoare, 9 Eq. 571. The remedy given against a person who receives trust property with knowledge of a breach of trust is founded on fraud, and the right of the party defrauded is therefore not affected by lapse of time, or, generally speaking, by anything done or omitted to be done, so long as he re- mains, without any fault of his own, in ignorance of the fraud that has been committed : Rolfe v. Gregory, 4 D. J. & Sm. 576 ; see Gharter v. Trevelyan, 11 CI. & F. 714 ; Pyrah v. Woodcock, 24 L. T. N. S. 407 ; Lewis v. Thomas, 3 Hare, 26. If the person receiving the money takes it as a loan, his conscience is still affected with the trust, and he cannot separate the loan from the trust and insist that the loan, being barred by the statute, the trust is barred also : Ernest v. Croysclill, 2 D. F. & J. 175, 198. Where a trustee has also a beneficial interest in re- mainder contingent on the failure of issue of a tenant for life, although children might have made him liable for a misappropriation of the funds, the husband of the tenant for life, having been guilty of such misappropriation, was held not to be able to set up the Statute against the trus- tee in the absence of circumstances showing knowledge in, and acquiescence by, the latter : Butler v. Garter, 5 Eq. 276. The Court will not relieve a man from the consequences of concealed fraud practised by another on the ground that his intellect was dull, and that he had therefore failed to discover the fraud; actual lunacy would, however, be a sufficient excuse : Manhy v. Bewicke, 3 K. & J. 369, LIMITATIONS — ACCOUNT OF RENTS AND PROFITS. 323 Accoiont of Bents and Profits. Where there is a trust and a mere equitable title, the Limit of Court will give the cestui que trust an account of the rents and profits from the time the title accrued, unless upon special circumstances ; and then will, in its discre- tion, restrict it to the time of bringing the action : Dormer V. Fortescue, 3 Atk. 124, 130 ; Hicks v. Sallitt, 3 D. M. & G. 782 ; Morgan v. Morgan, 10 Eq. 99 ; Hickman v. Up- sall, 4 Oh. D. 144 ; Thomson v. Eastwood, L. Tl. 2 App. Ca. 216, 241. Such special circumstances include the case of the de- Special fendant having no notice of the plaintiff's title, nor having stances. had the deeds and writings showing the plaintiff's title in his custody, and also the case of the title of the plaintiff appearing by deeds in a stranger's custody : Dormer v.

Prescott, 7 Ves. 541 ; Bowes v. East London Waterworks Co., 3 Madd. 375 ; Hicks v. Sallitt, 3 D. M. & G. 782 ; Sturgis v. Morse, 3 D. & J. 1 ; Wright v. Chard, 4 Dr. 673 ; Thomson v. Eastwood, L. R. 2 App. Ca. 216, 241. In the case of an infant bringing an action to have pos- Profits of session of the estate, and an account of mesne profits, the J^^^°*^ account will be decreed from the time when the infant's title accrued : Dormer v. Fortescue, 3 Atk. 124 ; Blom- field V. Eyre, 8 Bea. 250 ; Nanney v. Williams, 22 Bea. 452 ; Schroder v. Schroder, Kay, 591 ; Hicks v. Sallitt, 3 D. M. & G. 782, 812 ; Pascoe v. Swan, 27 Bea. 508.

Unautlior- vestment. Non- invest- ment. Non- invest- ment by solicitor- trustee. SPECIFIC RELIEF FOR BREACH OF TRUST — JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY — EFFECT OF CONCURRENCE AND ACQUIESCENCE. In the foregoing chapters numerous instances of breach of trust are noticed, together with the appropriate reme- dies in some of such cases — remedies which necessarily vary according to the particular circumstances of each transaction. In the present chapter will be found some of the more salient points with regard to the decree obtainable by a cestui que trust against his trustee, the extent of the trustee's liability, and the effect of concur- rence in, or adoption of breaches of trust, by the cestui que trust himself A trustee who commits a breach of trust by investing on mortgage instead of in consols, is liable to make good the amount of stock which would have been purchased in consols, together with the amount of accumulation which would have been produced by a proper investment of the dividends in such stock : Pnde v. FooJcs, 2 Bea. 430. Where an executor with a trust to invest a legacy re- tains it, and pays interest on it to the cestui que trust, he must purchase so much stock as the amount of the legacy would have bought when he first had sufficient assets in his hands to have made the investment according to the trust : Byrcliall v. Bradford, 6 Madd. 235. See the Order, p. 241. Where trust money was sent to one of a firm of solici- tors who was himself one of the trustees, for investment on mortgage, and the money after having been placed to SPECIFIC RELIEF FOR BREACH OF TRUST. 325 the credit of the firm at their bankers', was drawn out by the trustee and never invested, his partner was held to be personally liable for the money : Eager v. Barnes, 31 Bea. 579 ; the trustee having died, the debt was ordered to be proved against his estate, his partner, on payment by him, taking the benefit of such proof ; and see Long v. Hay, W. N. 1871, 134. As to the general liability of a solicitor for the receipt of money by his partner in the ordinary course of business, see Bourdillon v. Roche, 27 L. J. Ch. 681, and the cases there cited ; Sawyer v. Goodwin, 16 L. T. N. S. 514. Trustees are liable to make good the whole loss caused Neglect to by their neglect to enforce the transfer of a sum of stock ^ebts?' forming part of the wife's property, covenanted to be settled by a marriage settlement, their default enabling the husband to obtain and misapply the fund : Fenwich V. Greenwell, 10 Bea. 412; Caffrey v. Barby, 6 Ves. 488; Maitland v. Bateman, cited, 10 Bea. 415. But this may not be the case where the husband is Where evidently in insolvent circumstances : Hobday v. Peters, i^oiyent. 28 Bea. 603. So also where a trustee whose co-trustee had been a Leaving partner with the testator, allowed him to retain and lose ™^g^ "^ the estate in the trade, he was, with his co-trustee, de- clared liable to account personally for the loss : Booth v. Booth, 1 Bea. 125. As to the liability of trustees who omit to get in and convert within a reasonable time, whereby a loss is caused to the tnist estate, see ante, p. 87 et seq. " If a partner, being a trustee, improperly employs the Kecovering money of his cestui que trust in the partnership business, fom^^ ""^ or in payment of the partnership debts, this alone is not '^^^'^ l«°*- sufficient to entitle the cestui que trust to obtain repay- ment of his money from the firm" : Lindley, p. 311 ; Exp. Apsey, 3 B. C. C. 265. The knowledge of the partners who are not trustees, must be proved : Exp. Heaton, Buck, 386 ; Exp. Barne- wall, 6 D. M. & G. 801. 3i6 SPECIFIC EELIBF FOR BREACH OF TRUST. But if the trust money can be traced by the cestui que trust into the hands of the firm, he can claim it against them on the principles stated ante, p. 299 et seq. If partners are implicated in a breach of trust, then- liability is joint and several : Devaynes v. Nohle, 1 Mer. 563, 614 ; Imperial Mercantile Assoc, v. Coleman, L. R. 6 H. L. 189. When trustees lend money to a firm which becomes bankrupt, they cannot obtain an account of profits realised with the money, nor charge more than ordinary interest upon it : Stroud v. Gwyer, 28 Bea. 130. Neglect to Where by a marriage settlement a husband assigned a '^oilc"^ policy to trustees, and covenanted to keep it up, the trustees, not having any power or duty to keep up the policy, and not having any funds available for that pur- pose, were not charged with the loss arising by the hus- band failing to keep up the policy : Hobday v. Peters, 28 Bea. 60-3 ; secus, where there is a trust to keep up the policy : Marriott v. Kinnersley, Taml. 470, 474. And " if the trustee have no funds to keep up the policy, he may do, and, in my opinion, it is his duty to do, what he can to obtain money for the purpose of paying the premium, and a lien on the policy will then be ob- tained because the trustee has no money applicable for the purpose, and he really does what is best for the cestui que trust, in obtaining money for that purpose. There- fore the cestui que trust, having the benefit of that ad- vance, cannot make the trustee pay personally that of which he has received the benefit. But if the cestui que trust supply funds, or if the trustee, by duly performing his trust ought to be in possession of funds applicable to that purpose, then he acquires no lien on the policy, and cannot confer one on another": Clack v. Holland,!^ Bea. 262, per Lord Eomilly, at p. 276. But a mere stranger, by paying premiums on a policy, cannot acquire a lien upon it. He can only acquire a lien by some contract with the persons beneficially interested in it, or with the trustee where the trustee himself might SPECIFIC EELIEF FOE BREACH OP TRUST. 337 have obtained a lien : Ibid. ; Re Layton, W. N. 1873, 49 ; and see Burridge v. Row, 1 Y. & C. C. C. 18.3, 583 ; PmJcett V. Wright, 2 Hare, 120, 12 CI. & F. 764. The lien of the trustee who has advanced money to pay- premiums is enforceable by sale by order of the Court: Hill V. Trenery, 23 Bea. 16. Or if the husband who has covenanted to pay the premiums becomes insolvent, the Court will allow the trustees to take the surrender-value of the policy : Beres- ford V. Beresford, 23 Bea. 292. When there are two separate funds subject to trusts, and Improve- the trustees commit a breach of trust as to one, by which gj^gj, p^^^ it is lost, they are not allowed to say that they have im- °i estate 1 ^° excuse. proved the other fund, and that that lund is bound to make up the loss on the other. If trustees lose one part of the settled funds, they must answer for it, whatever may be the improvement of the other fund : Wiles v. Greshmn, 2 Dr. 2.58, 271. And trustees were ordered to make good payments of Oyer-pay- income to a tenant for life on securities which might tenant for have been converted, so far as they exceeded the dividends i**^- of the stock which ought to have been purchased, though the proceeds of the unauthorised security turned out to be larger than the amount of such stock if so purchased : Dimes v. Scott, 4 Euss.^ 195, 207. But where, in taking the account, the trustees were Where debited with the cash and not the investment, iipon which allowed. a profit arose, they were allowed the benefit of such profit : Fletcher v. Green, 33 Bea. 426. In accounting for a breach of trust, trustees are re- Trustees garded as mere stakeholders, and cannot be affected with on^^with more than they have actually received without wilful de- ■what they fault: Pybus v. Smith, 1 Ves. Jun. 193; and even then the ceived. proof must be very strong : Palmer v. Jones, 1 Vern. 144, in which the Lord Keeper declared that " he would never charge a trustee with imaginary values ; but that he should be charged as a bailiff only." The rule of the Court has always been and still is, that Wilful default. 328 WILFUL DEFAULT — LIABILITY OF KEPEESENTATIVES. the plaintiff must aver and prove at least one act of wilful neglect or default in order to obtain a decree directing an inquiry as to wilful neglect or default : Coope v. Carter, 2 D. M. & G. 292, 297 ; Sleight v. Lawson, 3 K. & J. 292 ; Massey v. Massey, 2 J. & H. 728 ; King v. CorJce, 1 Ch. D. 57. The duty of the plaintiff cestui que trust is to point out and fix on any item he pleases and adduce proper evidence to show that, but for the wilful neglect or default of the defendant, it might have been received : Sleight v. Lawson, supra, in which Coope v. Garter, supra, so far as it ap- pears to be at variance with the above general rule, is ex- plained. Qn further directions, upon the ground that, in taking the accounts ijnder a common administration decree, a case of possible wilful default might be established, it is not the course of the Court to give an inquiry as to wilful default : Coope V. Carter, supra; Re Fryer, 3 K. & J. 318 ; Part- ington V. Reynolds, 4 Dr. 253 ; but see Brooker v. Brooker, 3 Sm. & G. 475, in which such an inquiry was added to the decree ; and see Tickner v. Smith, 3 Sm. & G. 42. Nor will the decree be added to by directing payment with compound interest: Nelson v. Booth, 3 D. & J. 119. Leave to amend the statement of claim, after issue joined, in order to supply an allegation of an act of wilful default according to the rule, was given to a plaintiff, but upon the terms of not entering into new evidence : King V. CorJce, 1 Ch. D. 57. Trustees Where trustees have been guilty of previous negligence uftimatr ^ ^°^ securing the trust property, by obtaining a decision conse- of a question of law, however doubtful, they are not ex- cused on the ground that the loss has ultimately happened by something that is not a direct and immediate con- sequence of their negligence ; and if after such previous negligence the loss happen by fire, lightning or any other accident, that would not be an excuse for them, as being their fault : Caffrey v. Da7^by, 6 Yes. 488, 496. quences. LIABILITY OF REPEESENTATIVES. 329 Thus, if trustees have, without authority, procured and accepted in lieu of so much stock an unauthorised hut ample security for so much money, they -will be responsible for any future loss traceable to that first error : Fyler V. Fyler, 3 Bea. 550; Kellaway v. Johnson, 5 Bea. 319. The representatives of a trustee are liable to the extent Liability of of his assets for the consequences of his breach of trust : y^gg Devaynes v. Robinson, 24 Bea. 86. If a trustee commit a breach of trust, and the conse- Conse- quences of it do not occur until after his death, his estate ^reach^of is liable though, if redress had been sought in respect of trust aris- that breach of trust, it was reparable in his Jiietime : death of Devaynes v. Robinson, 24 Bea. 95. *™^'^^- And this is true as well in the case of wilful default as of an active breach of trust : Ibid. Thus, if a debt is allowed to remain outstanding during a long period, during which the debtor was solvent, if shortly after the death of the trustee the debtor becomes insolvent, the estate of the trustees would still be liable : Ibid. 96. So, if trustees who ought to invest money leave it in their names in a bank, the estate of one of the trustees who dies is liable to refund it, if the other misapplies it, even after his death, unless it can be shown by his re- presentatives that the retaining the money in the bank was justified by necessity or otherwise : Gibbins v. Taylor, 22 Bea. 344. The administrator of a sole trustee who has died Ketainer insolvent and a debtor to the trust estate is entitled tratoror^ to, and at the request of the cestui que truest is bound to, defaulting exercise his legal right of retainer in order to recoup the trust estate : Sander v. Heathfield, 19 Eq. 21. And the cestuis que trust can sue not only the repre- Liability sentatives of the trustee, but may follow the assets into the leg^ees. hands of a paid legatee under the trustee's will : Gillespie V. Alexander, 3 Russ. 130 ; Greig v. Somerville, 1 R. & My. 338 ; March v. Russell, 3 M. & Cr. 31 ; Davies v. 330 TRUSTEE NOT BENEFITED — EQUAL LIABILITY, BeBefit derived by trustee not inquired into.

F. & J. 474. It is the constant rule of Courts of Equity to charge persons in the character of trustees with the consequences of a breach of trust, and to charge their representatives also, whether they derive benefit from the breach of trust or not : Adair v, Shaw, 1 Sch. & Lef 243, 272 ; Montford V. Cadogan, 17 Ves. 485, 48.9. It is upon this principle that, where there are two trustees, and one does not receive the money, but acts in such a way as mates him liable for the acts of the other, that liabihty is enforced against him : Scurfield v. Howes, 3 B. C. C. 91. The Court in effect does not enquire into the particular benefit that has been made, but fastens upon the party an obligation to make good the situation of the cestui que trust: Dornford v. Dornford, 12 Ves. 127. All parties to a breach of trust are equally liable ; thei-e is between them no primary liability : Wilson v. Moore, 1 M. & K. 126, 146. And when several trustees are involved in one common breach of trust, a cestui que trust suffering from that breach, and proving that the transaction was neither authorised nor adopted by him, may proceed against either or all of the trustees : Walker v. Symonds, 3 Swans. 1, 75 ; Attorney-General v. Wilson, Cr. & Ph. 1, 28 ; Fletcher v. Green, 33 Bea. 426, 429. And this is the case, though the plaintiffs do not seek to charge one of the trustees, who moreover they allege never to have acted in the trust : Taylor v. Tabrum, 6 Sim. 281. The right being joint and several, the estate of one of the trustees who becomes bankrupt is subject to proof for the breach of trust : Exp. Norris, 4 Ch. 280 ; see ante, p. 220. If the action is for breach of trust only, all or any of the parties may be sued without joining the others (subject to the right of the defendant to bring in, by notice, his co- trustee under Order XVI. r. 13) : Plumer v. G)'egory, 18 Eq. 627. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY — CONTRIBUTION. 331 Where two sets of trustees had committed a breach of Suing one. trust, it was held that one set could be sued without of trustees. making the other set parties to the action : McGachen v. Dew, 15 Bea. 84. The joint and several liability for breach of trust is of Speciiil course subject to any special arrangement under the terms ^entas to of the trust whereby the custody of the property is appor- liability. tioned between the trustees : Birls v. Betty, 6 Madd. 90 ; Form of but whether the plaintiff intends to recover the entire loss against one of the trustees, or equal parts against both, the order goes against both for the whole : Rehden v. Wesley, 29 Bea. 213, 215. If one or more of several trustees pay the whole amount Contribu- decreed to be paid in an action for breach of trust, a case i'™ ^^' J^ _ _ ' tween for contribution by those who have not paid arises ; and trustees. previous to the Judicature Act such contribution could not be had but in a new suit for the purpose : Fletcher v. Green, 33 Bea. 513, 515 ; Goppard v. Allen, 2 D. J. & Sm. 173, 182 ; but by rule 13 of Order XVI., which is to be read with sub-sect. 3 of s. 24 of the Judicature Act, 1873, this remedy Over against co-trustees would, it seems, now be triable, if not enforceable, in the same action. But by rule 5 of the same Order, " the plaintiff may at his option join as parties to the same action all or any of the persons severally, or jointly and severally, liable on any one contract, including parties to bills of exchange and promissory notes." And if it were held that this rule did not touch the joint and several liability of trustees, the 2nd rule of the 7th Consolidated Order would still apply : namely, "that where the plaintiff has a joint and several demand against several persons, either as principals or sureties, it shall not be necessary to bring before the Court as parties to a suit concerning such demand all the persons liable thereto ; but the plaintiff may proceed against one or more of the persons severally liable." Upon this rule it is held that it applies to a joint and several demand against trustees, but that where the case is not one of breach of trust merely, but a general account is also 33£ CONTRIBUTION BETWEEN TRUSTEES. Contribu- tion to costs paid. No equity for in- demnity tetween co-trustees ■where no breach of trust. iSecus, where breach of trust, though plaintiff wrong- doer. Cestuis que trust need not be parties. Indemnity by stranger benefited by breach. Nature of debt created by sought, the rule does not dispense with the necessity of all the trustees being represented in the action : Goppard v. Allen, 2 D. J. & Sm. 173, 181. The right of a trustee, who has paid what is found due for a breach of trust to be recouped by his co-trustee, extends to a sum of costs allowed to his co-trustee, and such costs will for that purpose be carried to a separate account, with liberty to apply : BirJcs v. Micklethwait, 33 Bea. 409. There is no equity by which one trustee can obtain, by an action against his co-trustee, an indemnity in respect of a security taken by the trustees upon property formerly belonging to the co-trustee, who thereupon receives pay- ment for it from the mortgagor ; for there is no breach of trust in such a transaction, and the Court will not go into remote consequences for the purpose of sustaining such a case : Butler v. Butler, 7 Ch. D. 116. If, however, there has been a breach of trust by both trustees, it is competent for one of them to bring an action, though he be a wrongdoer, to compel the other to refund his share of the loss : Baynard v. Woolley, 20 Bea. 583, and the cases in note (g), p. 585. As a general rule, in an action by a trustee for contribu- tion by his co-trustees, it is not necessary to make the cestuis que trust, qud cestuis que trust, parties to the action, yet anybody, whether he is a cestui que trust or a stranger, who has received the trust property and been guilty of breach of trust, must be made a party : Jesse V. Bennett, 6 D. M. & G. 609. A person who, not being a trustee, has induced the trustees to commit trust-money to him on loan or other- wise, is liable to indemnify the trustees if made liable for the consequences of their breach of trust : Greenford v. Wakeford, 1 Bea. 576 ; Fyler v. Fyler, 3 Bea. 550. As to the case where such person is also a cestui que trust, see post, p. 333. As between trustee and cestui que trust the debt created by a breach of trust is either a simple contract CONTRIBUTION — CONCURRENCE OF CESTUI QUE TRUST. 333 debt or a specialty debt, according as the trustee has bound breach of himself by a specialty in words expressly constituting *™^*' a covenant, or construed as intended to constitute a cove- nant : Adey v. Arnold, 2 D. M. & G. 432 ; Wynch v. Ch^ant, 2 Dr. 312 ; Newport v. Bryan, 5 Ir. Ch. R. 119 ; Isaacson v. Harivood, 3 Ch. 225 ; Holland v. Holland, 4 Ch. 449 ; Ee Dickson, 12 Eq. 154 ; and see Wood v. Hardisiy, 2 Coll. 542 ; Courtney v. Taylor, 7 Scott, N. R. 749 ; 6 Man. & Gr. 851; Marry at v. Marryat, 28 Bea. 224. But the debt constituted by the rie-ht of contribution As between between trustees, one of whom has paid the whole loss, '^^^ ^^^' is per se a simple contract debt only: Priestman v. Tindall, 24 Bea. 244 ; LocJchart v. Reilly, 1 D. & J. 464, except so far as it is constituted a specialty debt by s. 5 of the Mercantile Law Amendment Act (19 & 20 Vict. c. 97). Where, however, the claim is against the estate of a deceased trustee, the Act of 32 & 33 Vict. c. 46, which ' has destroyed the priority of specialty debts provable against estates of deceased persons, has in such cases rendered it immaterial whether the debt was by specialty or not. It is established by all the cases that if the cestui que Concur- trust ioins with the trustee in that which is a breach of '^^°'='^.°f •> _ _ cestui que trust, knowing the circumstances, such a cestui que trust can trust in never complain of such a breach of trust ; but the Court ^^ust • must inquire into the circumstances which induced con- inqviiry. currence or acquiescence : Walker v. Symonds, 3 Swans. 1 64 ; Fyler v. Fyler, 3 Bea. 550, 569 ; and see Butler v. Garter, 5 Eq. 276. Thus, where a trustee, on his retirement, a,ssigns the inquiry as trust fund contrary to the terms of his trust to the *o^ssent •' . . to breach continuing trustee alone, who misapplies it, both he and of trust. the continuing trustee are liable, but the Court directs an inquiry whether any and which of the parties in- terested in the fund have consented to or approved of the transfer, or the sale by the continuing trustee : Wilkinson v. Parry, 4 Russ. 272. 334 CONOUERENCE AND ACQUIESCENCE. Knowledge necessary to fix con- curring beneficiary. Not where assent is by person not sui jicyis. Feme coixrte. Infancy. Where cestui que trust re- ceives benefit. Acquies- cence. It must be shown that the cestui que trust was at least cognisant of the breacli of trust in order to deprive him of his right against the trustees : Buckeridge v. Glasse, Cr. & Ph. 126-, 135 ; and see Ryder v. Bickerton, 3 Swans. 83 n. No such inquiry will be directed in the case of a married woman, who, though consenting, is restrained from anti- cipation, and is, moreover, directed by the settlement to consent to an act which, without such consent, the trustees could not, without a breach of trust, perform : Cocker v. Quayle, 1 E. & My. 535. The knowledge or consent of a husband cannot bind a married woman : Underwood v. Stevens, 1 Mer. 712, 717 ; Montford v. Cadogan, 19 Ves. 633, 639 ; Cressvjell v. Dewell, 4 Giff. 460, 465. As to the liability of a married woman having separate estate to answer for a breach of trust, see ante, p. 265. Where the feme coverte has separate property, that pro- perty is bound by her acquiescence in a breach of trust, unless she is restrained from anticipation : Kellaway v. Johnson, 5 Bea. 319. Parties under disability, such as infants, cannot of course be taken to have concurred in a breach of trust : Wilkinson v. Parry, 4 Russ. 272. A person who has actually received the money arising from the breach of trust in which he has concurred, cannot afterwards, under his title as cestui que tnist or otherwise, obtain the repayment of it : Nail v. Punter, 5 Sim. 555 ; Jqcuhs v. Rylance, 17 Eq. 341. Acquiescence or adoption by a cestui que trust, having a knowledge of the breach of trust, but assenting to it, or taking no steps to obtain redress for a long lapse of time, releases the trustee and bars the cestui que trust from afterwards complaining of that breach of trust, of which he often has enjoyed the benefit during that time : Price V. Stokes, 11 Ves. 324 ; Wcdker v. Symonds, 3 Sw. 1, 64, 75 ; Thompson v. Finch, 22 Bea. 316, 324 ; O-rijffiths v. Porter, 25 Bea. 236 ; Farrant v. Blanchford, 1 D. J. & Sm. 107 ; Sleeman v. Wilson, 13 Eq. 36. ACQUIESCENCE — IMPOUNDING INTERESTS. 335 As to the extent of acquiescence which will constitute a bar, see supra, p. 316 et seq. A tenant for life joining in a breach of trust is answer- rrimary able in the first instance : Moniford v. Cadogan, 19 Ves. ^^'^^^lli°l 638. beneficiary. Where cestuis que trust for life have induced trustees, in Extent of breach of their trust, to invest in a_higher paying dividend '^ " ^" than their trust or the rules of the Court permit, as the loss which ought to fall on those who instigated the breach of trust is laid by the Court upon the trustees, the trustees are entitled to stand in the place of the cestuis que trust in remainder to recover what has been actually received by the tenants for life, but to the extent only of the sur- plus income actually received by them : Raby v. Ridehalgh, 7 D. M. & G. 104. And, therefore, if no benefit has been derived by the cestui que trust thus implicated, no right of indemnity exists as against him : Walsham v. Stainton, 1 H. & M. 322, 337. Trustees have a right to stop the receipt of dividends Impound- by a person having a partial interest in the trust estate, of^concur-^ and who has induced the trustees to commit a breach of ""s beue- trust : Goclcer v. Quayle, 1 R. & My. 538 ; Lincoln v. Wriglit, 4 Bea. 427; McGachen v. Dew, 15 Bea. 84; Vaughton v. Noble, 30 Bea. 34, 39. And a trustee cannot waive, or, by bargain for his own Right to benefit with the person whose interest is liable to assist in ^Qn^^jJe repairing the breach of trust, destroy the security of that waived, interest as a source of reparation to the cestui que trust : Fuller V. Knight, 6 Bea. 205. The beneficial interest of a trustee is also liable to be Impoimd- impounded ; and assignees and incumbrancers, not being in e^fi'l^'!^'^' the position of purchasers for value without notice, of the t^i^^st of interest of a trustee liable to be impounded for his breach of trust, take their title subject to the equity of the cestuis que trust to impound the interest assigned : Priddy v. Rose, 3 Mer. 86 ; Morris v. Livie, 1 Y. & C. C. C. 380 ; Cole v. Muddle, 10 Hare, 186 ; but see British Mutual 336 IMPOUNDING INTERESTS — RELEASE. Annuity. Income. Interest.

Smart, 10 Ch. 567 ; especially after notice of pro- ceedings to enforce that equity : Irhy v. Irhy, 25 Bea. 632. If the interest of the trustee is an annuity, it may be stopped until the amount is recouped : Sldnner v. Sweet, 3 Madd. 244. In other cases the income is ordered to be accumulated until the debt is paid : Exp. King, 2 Mont. & A. 410. It seems that, as the liability is in the nature of tort, no interest can be charged : Prime v. Savell, W. N. 1867, 227. The legal life estate of a trustee is not liable to be impounded to answer a breach of trust with regard to other parts of the property as to which he is a trustee only : Egbert v. Butter, 21 Bea. 560 ; Fox v. Buckley, 3 Ch. D. 508 ; and see Exp. Barff, De G. 613. A defaulting trustee who becomes entitled, as next of kin of a deceased cestui que trust, to a share not exceeding the amount of his debt to the estate, is not entitled to retain his share as such next of kin, but is regarded as having paid himself anything which could be due on that account; Jacubs v. Rylance, 17 Eq. 341. Where a breach of trust has been committed, from which a trustee alleges that he has been released, it is incumbent on him to show that such release was given by the cestui que trust deliberately and advisedly, with full knowledge of all the circumstances, and of his own rights and claims against the trustee : Life Association V. Siddal, 3 D. F. & J. 74 ; Warrant v. Blanchford, 1 D. J. & Sm. 119. A release from a breach of trust cannot be given by an infant ; and if the breach of trust have been committed during the infancy, a release on attaining majority without a knowledge of all the facts would not be binding (Walker V. Symonds, 3 Sw. 1, 69) ; but if such knowledge be in the possession of the person so situated, his release will be a good discharge : Aveline v. Melhuish, 2 D. J. & Sm 288, RELEASE — COSTS. 387 That a married woman may give a release to her trus- Married tees in respect of breaches of trnst by them with regard "''""^"• to her separate estate, and, so far as she is restrained from anticipation, so that her release does not affect future in- come, may be gathered from the statement of the law relating to the separate estate : ante, p. 257 et seq. Where an action is brought against trustees for a breach Costs. of trust, the decree against them is usually made with costs : Byrne v. Norcott, 13 Bea. 336, 346. And see gene- rally as to costs of and against trustees, Morgan & Davey, pp. 288 et seq. The order for costs against trustees guilty of a breach Order for ° O ./ costs IS of trust is made agaicst all of them, on the ground that against all the question is not whether one of the defendants is more *'"'' ^^^' culpable than the other, but whether the cestui que trust is to be deprived of the double security which a decree for costs against all the parties would give him : Lawrence v. Boxvle, 2 Ph. 140 ; and see Littlehales v. Gascoyne, 3 B. C. C. 73. But cestuis que trust who have concurred in the breach Costs pay- of trust are primarily liable for the costs : Eaves v.
