" PRACTICE.
" Sir,—I should be obliged if you would give
publicity to the enclosed circular with reference
to the practice in bespeaking Land Certifi
cates, Copy Maps, &c., from this Department.
".We are frequently blamed for delay in
these matters, which can almost always be
attributed to the fact that proper care was not
taken by the person bespeaking the required
document.
" This refers only to the bespeaking of docu
ments by post.
" Solicitors should understand that the Regis
trar and officials of the various offices cannot
undertake to make searches on their behalf;
and, further, that very frequently it is really
unnecessary to bespeak the Land Certificate
or copy folio at all, seeing that an inspection
of the Register in either the Local or Central
Office, and an extract of the required particulars
taken by the solicitor, would be sufficient for
the purpose of preparing a transfer, or for most
other purposes.
"It is obviously of importance
that the
practice in regard to registration of title should
become well known to the profession ; and I
should, therefore, be obliged if you can devise
some method of giving publicity to the above
remarks.
" I am, sir,
"Your obedient servant,
" RAYMOND SMITH,.
"Chief Clerk.

" Incorporated Law Society,
" Four Courts."

BESPEAKING OF LAND CERTIFICATES, COPY
FOLIOS, MAPS, &c.
Dear Sir,—Referring to your letter of the
I am directed by the Registrar to ask
you to be good enough to note that in all
applications for Land Certificates,.Copy Folios,
Maps, &c., the correct
Folio Number
must be
specified (see Rule 38).
Every owner is
furnished on registration
with a form of requisition for Land Certificate,
in which the Folio Number and other parti
culars are given.
Should this form not be
forthcoming, before bespeaking a Land Certi
ficate the Register must always be inspected to
ascertain whether a Land Certificate has already
been issued, and, if not, whether the case
comes within the provisions of section 49 of
