Trust for sale
Trust for sale. Trusts for sale of land were commonly crated in settlements and well-drawn wills. The effect was to convert realty into personalty so that the proceeds devolved upon the beneficiaries as personalty unless they elected to take the property as realty (see CONVERSION), except that upon a lapse of the devise of realty in the testator's lifetime the property resulted to the heir-at-law, Ackroyd v. Smithson, (1780) 1 Bro CC 503. Another and more practical consequence was that the whole estate was vested as a rule in the trustees so that with or without consent of any other person as directed by the donor or testator they could vest the whole estate in a purchaser without his seeing to the application of the purchase money (Trustee Act, 1893, s. 14), and without participation of beneficiaries whose consent was not required, thus providing an expedient, which, together with the Settled Land Acts and other statutes giving analogous powers to mortgagees, personal representatives ...

Breach of trust
Breach of trust, a violation of duty by a trustee, executor, or other person in a fiduciary position.In some cases a breach of trust may be a comparatively venial offence, arising from the trustee having honestly misconstrued the deed or will creating the trust either as to the persons entitled, or as to his powers of investment of or dealing with the trust property, or having otherwise erred in the discharge of his strict duty; in other cases he may have been guilty of negligence or carelessness involving at least some degree of moral blame; or, in other cases again, he may have committed some gross fraud. But in all these cases alike the trustee is personally responsible at the suit of the beneficiaries for any loss which may have resulted, and the rules of equity on the subject were extremely strict and were enforced with great severity by the Court of Chancery. In later times, however, the Court was not quite so astute in fixing honest trustees with liability for breach of trust as...
