Excerpt from Reports of Cases Decided in the Court of Common Pleas of Upper Canada, Vol. 5: From Hilary Term 18 Victoria, to Hilary Term 19 VictoriaIt is not enough that the plaintiffs' land was in arrear for taxes to some amount, and that a less amount than that for which it was sold might have been realized from it, The owner would by law be entitled to redeem it on pay ment of the arrears, &c., , to which it was legally liable, but a portion being sold for the arrears due. On that and the adjacent half lot, which-had been separately granted and returned, was an excess of authority, and exposed the owner to the burthen of paying rates to which his land was not liable to relieve it from that to which it was liable. Surely this lot could not have been sold for all the arrears in the concession or township, and the owner be told it was liable to some arrears and that would sustain the whole sale. It could not require as much land to realize the sum really due upon it as was sold to raise double the' amount.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
