Philip Francis
The Law of Charities is a legal reference book written by Philip Francis in 1854. The book focuses on the Charitable Trusts Act of 1853, which was a significant piece of legislation in the United Kingdom that established a legal framework for the creation and management of charitable trusts. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the Act and its implications for charities and their trustees. It covers topics such as the definition of a charitable trust, the duties and responsibilities of trustees, the power of the courts to intervene in charitable affairs, and the procedure for establishing and administering a charitable trust. The Law of Charities is an important resource for anyone involved in the management of charitable organizations, including trustees, lawyers, and accountants. It is also a valuable historical document that sheds light on the development of charity law in the UK.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
