Joining together
Joining together, the expression 'joining together' in paragraph 16(1) is apparently used in its broad meaning. According to the Webster's New World Dictionary, 1962 Edn. Page 789 the word 'join' has these meanings. '(1) to place together, bring to-gether, connect, pass on, combine; (2) to make into one, unite; (3) to become a part or a member of; enter into association with; (4) to go to and combine with; (5) to enter into the company of' a company; (6) to go and take one's proper place in.' The word has evidently got several meanings. When it is used in the sense of 'combine', it may imply mingling together of things, often with a loss of distinction of elements that completely merge with one another, Ramashankar Kaushik v. Election Commission of India, AIR 1974 SC 445: (1974) 1 SCC 271. [Election Symbols (Reservations and Allot-ment Order, 1968, Para. 16(1)]There is nothing in the context to restrict its meaning to a case of merger of two or more political parties and their resultan...

Civil Law
Civil Law, that rule of action which every particular nation, commonwealth, or city has established peculiarly for itself, more properly distinguished by the name of municipal law.The term 'civil law' is now chiefly applied to that which the Romans complied from the laws of nature and nations.The 'Roman Law'and the 'Civil Law' are convertible phrases, meaning the same system of jurisprudence; it is now frequently denominated 'the Roman Civil Law.'The collections of Roman Civil Law, before its reformation in the sixth century of the Christian era by the eastern Emperor Justinian, were the following:--(1) Leges Regi'. These laws were for the most part promulgated by Romulus, Numa Pompilius and Servius Tullius. To Romulus are ascribed the formation of a constitutional government, and the imposition of a fine, instead of death, for crimes; Numa Pompilius composed the laws relating to religion and divine worship, and abated the rigour of subsisting laws; and Servius Tullius, the sixth king,...
Mortgage
Mortgage [fr. mort, Fr., dead, and gage, pledge], a deed pledge; a thing put into the hands of a creditor.A mortgage is the creation of an interest in property, defeasible (i.e., annullable) upon performing the condition of paying a given sum of money, with interest thereon, at a certain time. This conditional assurance is resorted to when a debt has been incurred, or a loan of money or credit effected, in order to secure either the repayment of the one or the liquidation of the other. the debtor, or borrower, is then the mortgagor, who has charged or transferred his property in favour of or to the creditor or lender, who thus becomes the mortgagee. If the mortgagor pay the debtor loan and interest within the time mentioned in a clause technically called the proviso for redemption, he will be entitled to have his property again free from the mortgagee's claim; but should he not comply with such proviso, the legal estate becomes perfected in the mortgagee, i.e., indefeasible, and so los...

A concise statement, usually prepared for a mortgagee or purchaser of real property, summarising the history of a piece of land including all conveyances interests, lines & encumbrances that reflect title to property, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., an epitome of the evidence of title to property or power to deal with it.Every purchaser of land or real estate has an implied right to have an abstract of title delivered to him within a reasonable time, Compton v. Bagley, (1892) 1 Ch 313. As to registered land, see the Land Registration Act, 1925, s. 110, and Brickdale and Stewart-Wallace on the Land Registration Act, 1925.An abstract is said to be perfect if it deduces the title from the date fixed by the contract or by statute for its commencement and discloses every incumbrance affecting it, by setting out the material parts of all deeds, wills and other documents, and stating the facts on which it depends: fc. 1 Pres. 42, 207. The statutory period is thirty years,...
Hynden
Hynden, an association of ten men, first mentioned in In. 54, where it signifies the person from among whom the consacramentals were to be chosen in the case of deadly feud. From Ath. V. iii. It appears that the members of the 'first-guilds' (congildones) were formed into associations of ten, the enactment running thus: 'That we count ten men together, and let the senior direct the nine in all these things that are to be done; and then let them count their hyndens together, with one hyndenman, who shall admonish the ten (i.e., the ten hyndens) for our common benefit.' Hence it would seem that the eleven who are to hold the money consisted of the senior of each hynden, together with the hydenman who presided over the hynden of the hyndens, i.e., ten hyndens. The number XII. mentioned in Ath. V. viii. 1 is apparently an error for XI, Anc. Inst. Eng...
