Entail Amendment Act 1848

XXVII Money vested in trust for the Purchase of Land to be entailed may be dealt with as if it were the entailed Land.

And be it enacted, That where any Money or other Property, Real or Personal, has been or shall be invested in trust for the Purpose of purchasing Land to be entailed, or where any Land is or shall be directed to be entailed, but the Direction has not been carried into effect, it shall be lawful for the Party who, if the Land had been entailed in Terms of the Trust, would be the Heir in possession of the entailed Land, and who in that Case might by virtue of this Act have acquired to himself such Land in Fee Simple by executing and recording an Instrument of Disentail as aforesaid, to make summary Application to the Court, as herein-after provided, for Warrant and Authority for the Payment to him of such Money, or for the Conveyance to him of such Land in Fee Simple; and the Court shall, upon such Application, and with such Consents, if any, as would have been required to the Acquisition of such Land in Fee Simple, have Power to grant such Warrant and Authority.
