Not illustrated. 1886 edition. Excerpt: ... PART II.--THEIR CHIEF FEATURES. The chief features of our present land system are best seen under two heads:--I.--The rule of descent in case of the owner's death intestate; or, in other words, the rule which points out to whom the land will go in case of the owner dying without having made a will. And II.---The enormous power the owner has over land (a) during life, and (b) by will at his death. 1.--What is the rule of descent in case of the owner's death intestate? The rule is, that if the owner of an estate of inheritance dies without having made a will, the estate descends not to the sons and daughters equally, but to the eldest son alone, to the exclusion of his brothers and sisters.

The only nation which favoured the eldest born were the Jews, who gave the eldest son a double portion of the inheritance. And we are told that the Greeks, the Romans, the Britons, and the Saxons all divided their lands equally among the children, at any rate among the males.
