The motive or reason, however, why a person disposes of his property to another, is surely a point of little consideration, pro- vided he does in fact dispose of it according to the existing law. Lastly, their Lordships say, " and which proved ineffectual :" why did it prove ineffectual according to the sense here conveyed ? Was it because the cession had been made to me, to secure this property more effectually in my person, to prevent the possibility of its being dismembered? And admitting ev...en for argument's sake, an intent to delude the French government, and that notwithstanding that the French revolutionary government confiscated and sequestered it ; yet, on whatever grounds the revolutionary faction may have chosen to act, the cession was legal, and made according to the existing laws, and the property therefore at the time it was seized, was vested solely in me, a British subject. Did not their Lordships know that there is no gift so binding, so irrevocable as a cession (une donation entre vifs) ?
