Excerpt from Instructions for Preparing Abstracts of Titles: After the Most Improved System of Eminent Conveyancers, to Which Is Added, a Collection of Precedents, Shewing the Method Not Only of Abstracting Every Species of Deeds, but Also of So Connecting Them Together, by Collateral Documents, as to Form a Comp

Even principals are not unfrequently disposed to treat abstracts with less concern for their accuracy and completeness than they really deserve; assum ing, perhaps, that the imperfections would be brought out by the Opposite counsel or solicitor. But this is a great fault, and most unjust; for it not only throws the additional labour and expense of perfecting them upon the party who has no right to hear them, but also sometimes occasions serious litigation: for which there is no reasonable excuse whenever they can be perfected in the first instance. Leaving emissions for complaints, and defects to be drawn out by requisitions, is, moreover, as slovenly and tedious a mode of proceeding as it is un warrantable. And why the party receiving an abstract should be put to the additional expense of making discoveries or objections so as to sup ply the carelessness or want of judgment of the party preparing it, is not easy, on principle, to understand.

Born in Yorkshire, England, the sculptor Henry Moore was a dominant figure in British art from the 1930s to the present. During World War II, he was unable to sculpt and so instead sketched people in the London underground during bombing raids. His career reached international prominence when he represented Britain at the 1948 Venice Biennale. Because many of his monumental sculptures are displayed out of doors, he has a fame beyond that of most artists, whose work can be seen only in museums. Throughout his long career, Moore produced figural sculptures that seem to have a universal appeal. He was one of the first English artists to be aware of sculpture outside the Western tradition. He was one of the most successful public sculptors, and hundreds of his works can be seen in parks and squares throughout the world. Among the most well known are marble sculptures in Lincoln Center in New York City and UNESCO headquarters in Paris.
