IS41 M r. SrvAtcn : The bill now before the House, ia lle result of a resolution referred to the committee on the Judieiary. It relates to a subject which has long been a matter for reflection b eyery leeal gentleman in tha Assembly. During a practice of tbe law for ' t many years, I have galheted that experience . which convinces rag. that the meaeure ia wise nnd salutary, and called for by a just - regard lor ttie interest ofthe creditor, the rep-1 - ntaiion of the deceased, and the welfare of f liia Qrpliarle,....,,..-... siopjf ofthe piJU I., .WJli .beflyatota Mia W fnt which it is designed as a remedy. By the common law, lands were not liable for the eali sfoctjon of debta, and ihia waa the law pf the colony till tha year 1 1 , when, by an act of Parliament, this ' species of es tate waa subjected to the saiiafactionol debta, ia as full manner as personal pronertyWTbeli. remedy; however, did not extend to elJtea which detctnded 10 heiia.nor was it thusjipf plied, lill the year 1784 :.,when it was pro- 1 1 .1.-. r. r ., ? viuru uy law, mai "11 luiium ui asvcia, uid creditor, after obtaining his judgment, might issue hie tcirt faciiu against heirs and de visees, in order to subject the lands which the debtor possessed. This law did not re strain the heir from selling tlie eetate, and in caae of sale before it was subjected, the remedy was lost. In order to prevent tha heir from appropriating to himself what ought, in justice, to be applied to, tlie pay. menl ofthe ancestor's debts, it was soon, af ter provided, that if the heir sold the estate descended en him, lie should be liable, per sonally, for the value" of the land.J 1 has Continued the law, until tlie year 1830. Tbe creditor was not ret fully ' secured : for the sale by tlie heir, of the land descended, con- J veyed a good and valid title to the purchaser, and if Ihe heir waa insolvent,' the personal redress againt him wu wholly unavailing. Caeca nf this kind itewtrred.' To remedy this evil, the act of 1830 was passed, the purpose of which was, lo prevent a ale by the heir under two- J-eara from the tiaae id 1 .X t
