Pawn or Pledge

Pawn or Pledge [fr. pignus, Lat.], a bailment of goods by a debtor to his creditor, to be kept till the debt is discharged.A mortgage of goods is in the Common Law distinguishable from a mere pledge or pawn. By a mortgage the whole legal title passes conditionally to the mortgagee; and if the goods be not redeemed at the stipulated time, the title becomes absolute at law although equity allows a redemption. But in a pledge, a special property only passes to the pledgee, the general property remaining in the pledgor. Also, in the case of a pledge, the right of a pledgee is not consummated, except by possession; and, ordinarily, when that possession is relinquished, the right of the pledgee is extinguished or waived. But, in the case of a mortgage of personal property the right of property passes by the conveyance to the mortgagee, and the possession is not or may not be essential to create or support the title.As to things which may be the subject of pawn: These are, ordinarily, goods a...

Extinguishment

Extinguishment, the annihilation of a collateral interest, or the supersedure of one interest by another and greater interest in that out of which it is derived. It is of various natures as applied to various rights.The cessation or cancellation of some right on interest, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 604.(1) Extinguishment of common. It he who is entitled to common appurtenant purchase any part of the land which is subject to his right of common, that right is extinguished for the whole; and so, if he release his right over any part of the land. But it has been justly doubted whether in any case, and especially if all persons who have common appurtenant in the same land concur in discharg-ing some part of it, this legal trap should be allowed to operate, Burton's Comp., 8th Edn. 352. If one of the tenants of a manor purchase any part of the land over which he has a right of common appendant, his right over the rest will continue. So, on the alienation of any part of land to whi...


Funds, public

Funds, public, the name given to the public funded debt due by Government. The practice of borrow-ing money to defray a part of the war expenditure began, with us, in the reign of William III. In the infancy of the practice it was customary to borrow upon the security of some tax, or portion of a tax, set apart as a fund for discharging the principal and interest of the sum borrowed. This discharge was rarely effected. The public exigencies still continuing, the loans were continued, or the taxes again mortgaged for fresh ones. At length the practice of borrowing for a fixed period, or, as it is called, upon terminable annuities, was abandoned, and loans made upon interminable annuities, or until it might be convenient for the Government to pay off the principal. Such loans are called Funded Debt, or 'The Funds'; loans for a fixed period are said to be 'Unfunded'.In the beginning of the funding system the term 'fund' meant the taxes or funds appropriated to the discharge of the princip...
