Sinecures

☞ Here how the whole property of the press might in the
rate be granted away in time, fixing estates in fee.
All thence is cast off inflate at the breast
But in a certain place it would find defenders.
Tend that practice is so ahead which if it was lucrative would
not find defenders in that same place.

2. 3. By the words An estate in fee is designated the amplest most ample
quantity of interest which of whatsoever nature be the proprietary subject of property
subject the subject matter of property, the law
of England has allowed any one man to make one confer one to
any other: an estate in fee by which if not in
process of time the subject matter is secured is a prescribed order no only
to the descendants but failing those such relations to all
other person by whom any connection can be made
appear in the way of natural relationship with the first possessor, whether
in the descending line in any collateral line and
eventually even in the d ascending line.

Of an interest of this kind a really existing as
well as immoveable mass – a portion of the earth's
surface constitutes the most natural subject matter:
the only subject matter which till after a considerable
advance made by the community in question in the career of civilization or at least
of complication such an interval could have had.
By degrees At length however the union of craft with power
succeeded in the creation of a set of fictitious entities
so being so many instruments devised by and employed
in the art of money catching by the imaginary
possession of which a man in power should be enabled to contrast
on various occasions and pretences to extract money
out of such individuals whose misfortune it became were likely
to fall find themselves within his reach. Their An imaginary subject
matter having thus been created and an appropriate denomination given to it was considered as being
were a field a house or a horse considered as being
placed in a mans hands: and thus it was that an office
amongst other such
creations of the imagination
an office – a profit yielding office as well as a house or piece of land became the subject matter of that quantity of interest subject to certain a few capricious exceptions which is called an estate in fee.
