Tithe Rent-Charge
Tithe Rent-Charge.

See Halsbury, L.E., vol. 13, and the person affected with constructive notice takes, if at all, subject to the title or claim, whether he knew of it or not; for instance, a purchaser of land who is satisfied to take a shorter title than he could call for by statute is affected by notice of all trusts and equities of which he would have had notice if he had seen the full title. See Cox and Neve's Contract, (1891) 2 Ch 109; Patman v. Harland, (1881) 17 CD 353 illustrates the doctrine. It was there held that: (a) notice of a material document is notice of its contents, and (b) although the (English) Vendor and Purchaser Act, 1874...
