PUBLISHERS' NOTE.

The system of registering title, originally introduced in

Germany in 1722, and afterwards (1857) independently worked

out into practical form by Sir Robert Torrens for South Aus-

tralia, has been now adopted by three of the United States -

Illinois, Ohio and Massachusetts. Some of its features have already become, and others soon must be, the subject of judicial decision in our courts. (See People v. Chase, 165 Ill. 527;

State v. Guilbert, 56 Ohio St. 575; People v. Simon, 176 Ill. 165;

of land titles in other countries, and the merits of this system as compared with that of recording the conveyances under which title may be claimed.

The author has made the subject a special study for years, and the results were summarized in a course of lectures delivered on the William L. Storrs foundation before the Law Department of Yale University, in April, 1900. These are given in this volume substantially in their original form.

Dr. Dumas has also published on this subject a brief article in the Revue Politique et Parlementairefor September, 1898, entitled "Le Nouveau Rogime de Publicit6 des Droits Rels en Angleterre," and other articles on the same subject in the

Revue d' Economic Politique.
