The Gazette 1971

originally issued in 1903, with supplements in 1930 and in 194/, is perhaps the best known to Irish practitioners. The third edition under the editorship ol J. Burke and P. Allsopp, appeared from 1951 to 1953, with supple- ments in 1956 and 1965. It seems to this reviewer that the learned editor of the fourth edition could have wisely decided to dispense citing any old case contained in say the second edition before 1900. Save for some brilliant exceptions, this reviewer does not consider that the nineteenth-century judges were necessarily the acme of legal knowledge as regards prevailing modern condi- tions. There are many more gems of legal learning to be culled from the Commonwealth, and it seems a pity that the learned editor should consider that all wisdom and learning is necessarily contained in the person of an English judge. However, the list of meanings given to the word "any" as well as the list of what is and what is not a "charitable purpose" is most impressive. It wou'd seem that under the heading "Words and Phrases" in the various Digests of Irish Law Reports, our learned author could have selected some very useful legal definitions; let us hope this will be done in subse- quent volumes, if this edition of Stroud is to appeal to the modern Irish lawyer; examples would be "anything else I have" in "r* Atkinson Deed" (1942) I.R. 268, and under "Alienation" many examples are given, but the expression "Alienation by operation of law" as defined by the Supreme Court in Cork Co. Council v O'Shea (1947) I.R., appears to be omitted. Otherwise this volume maintains the high standard which we have come to expect from Stroud. Apart from the learned An application has been received from the registered owner mentioned in the Schedule hereto for the issue of a land certificate in substitution for the original land certificate issued in respect of the lands specified in the Schedule which original land certificate is stated to have been lost or inadvertently destroyed. A new certificate will be issued unless notification is received in the Registry within twenty-eight days from the date of publication of this notice that the original certificate is in existence and in the custody of some person other than the registered owner. Any such notification should state the grounds on which the certificate is being held. Dated this 15th day of November 1971. D. L.
