It also explores the legal framework surrounding charitable trusts, including the rules of construction, the powers of the courts, and the rights and liabilities of trustees. The book is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the management or administration of charitable trusts, as well as for legal professionals and scholars interested in the history and development of charity law in England and Wales.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
