Real representative.

Assent of personal representatives
Assent of personal representatives, At Common Law the personal estate passing by the will of a deceased person, including chattels real vested in the executor, virtute officii. The property passed to the legatee as soon as the executors assented to the bequest. The transfer was made not by the mere force of the assent but by virtue of the will, Attenborough v. Solomon, 1912 AC 76, and the assent might be given to one executor. No formalities were required. The assent might be implied, for instance, in the case of lease holds, by letting the person entitled into possession or the receipt of rent and profits, but the assent was required to be definite and unambiguous. When given it related back to the date of death and as a rule it could not be withdrawn [but see Whittaker v. Kershaw (1890), 45 CD 320]. This is still the law in regard to pure personalty, excluding chattels real. Before the (English) Land Transfer Act, 1897 (60 & 61 Vict. c. 65) real estate passed to the heir-at-law of th...
