Nothing could pass by the letter of attor ney but a bare naked power for ( creditor) to sell or lease the premises not coupled with any interest at all, and the power is only to be used in (vendor's) name; and therefore no occasion for (creditor) to be a party, but only to sign (vendor's) name for him, and deliver up the letter of attorney. Yet, as that may easily be lost or mislaid, I should think it more adviseable to send over the deeds of lease and release to be executed by (vendor) himself, in the presence of a notary public or some chief magistrate.-With respect to the objections made to this draft, I think those may be easily answered.-As to the costs of the copies of the deeds which belong to other estates, the agreement made for the purchase is silent there |
