An Inquiry Into The Rule Of Law Which Creates A Right To An Incorporeal Hereditament, By An Adverse Enjoyment Of Twenty Years is a legal treatise written by Joseph Kinnicut Angell in 1827. The book explores the concept of adverse possession, which allows a person to acquire ownership of a property by occupying it for a certain period of time without the owner's permission. Specifically, the book examines the legal principle that allows a person to claim ownership of an incorporeal hereditament, such as an easement or right of way, through adverse possession. Angell's analysis delves into the historical and legal origins of this principle, as well as its practical implications for property law. The book is considered a seminal work in the field of property law and is still referenced by legal scholars and practitioners today.With Remarks On The Application Of The Rule To Light, And In Certain Cases To A Water Privilege.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
