Registration of title of land
Registration of title of land. The (English) Land Registration Act, 1925 (15 Geo. 5, c. 21), repeals and re-enacts the (English) Land Transfer Acts, 1875 (38 & 39 Vict. c. 87) and 1897 (60 & 61 Vict. c. 65), with amendments in keeping with innovations which were introduced by the property laws of 1925.

They could pardon treasons, murders, and felonies; they appointed judges and magistrates; all writs and indictments ran in their names,and offences were said to be done against their peace and not contra pacem domini regis.
