ENGROSSING OF DEEDS.
The attention of the Council has been
drawn to the question of the lasting quality
of the inks now frequently used for the en–
grossment of deeds on parchment.
The
blue-black inks used at present for everyday
writing on paper would appear to be unsuit–
able for use on parchment.
An original Deed, engrossed on parchment
within the last twelve years, recently pro–
duced in Court proceedings, had become
practically entirely illegible owing to the
nature of the ink which had been used, and
which had almost completely faded out. On
the other hand, deeds are frequently in use
writtten on parchment more than a century
ago with
the writing still jet black and
perfectly legible. As a result of enquiry the
Council has been informed that an indelible
ink guaranteed to be fade proof, acid proof
and water proof can be procured at law
stationers.
The Council consider that this matter is
one worthy of the attention of the Profession.
