The Execution of Sealed Instruments by an Agent

Authors

Floyd R. Mechem, University of Chicago

Abstract

Purpose of this article--The manager of the execution of instruments under seal, such as deeds, bonds and other solemn writings, is of so much importance and has been so frequently discussed, as to merit the more extended treatment, which it is the purpose of this article to devote to it. The word "deed" herein is used to describe all it instruments under seal, and not merely conveyances of land. It is to be observed that the question here is not how authority to execute sealed instruments is to be conferred, but how such an authority is to be executed.
