HC Deb 16 July 1861 vol 164 c1006

Order for Committee read.

House in Committee.

(In the Committee.)

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

proposed a new clause, the object of which was to prevent time running against the Crown during the existence of a demise.

MR. AUGUSTUS SMITH

complained that the Amendment proposed by the hon. and learned Gentleman had not been printed.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

said, he did not think it necessary to print an Amendment which did not at all militate against the provisions of the Bill.

Bill considered in Committee.

House resumed.

Bill reported; as amended, to be considered to-morrow.
