BILL OF SALE (bouvier) | BILL OF SALE, Contracts. An agreement in writing, under seal, by which a man
transfers the right or interest he has in goods and chattels, to another. As
the law imports a consideration when an agreement is made by deed, a bill of
sale alters the property. Yelv. 196; Cro. Jac. 270 6 Co. 18.
2. The Act of Congress of January 14, 1793, 1 Story, L. U. S. 276,
provides, that when any ship or vessel which shall have been registered
pursuant to that act, or the act thereby partially repealed, shall in whole
or in part be sold or transferred to a citizen of the United States, in
every such sale or transfer, there shall be some instrument or writing in
the nature of a bill of sale, which shall recite at length the certificate
of registry; otherwise the said ship or vessel shall be incapable to be
registered anew.
3. In England a distinction is made between a bill of sale for the

bill of sale. In this country there does not appear to be such a
distinction. 4 Mass. 661.
4. In general, the maritime law requires that the transfer of a ship
should be evidenced by a bill of sale. 1 Mason, 306. But a contract to sell,
accompanied by delivery of possession, is sufficient. 8 Pick. 86 16 Pick.

by auction pro poses to sell it; the instrument containing these terms, when

2. It is always prudent and advisable that the conditions of sale
should be printed and exposed in the auction room; when so done, they are
binding on both parties, and nothing that is said at the time of sale, to
add to or vary such printed conditions, will be of any avail. 1 H. Bl. 289
