00R1UOBNDA, ETC., TO VOL. V. 459 Earldom of Mar [far from being ancient] was a peerage ereated late in the 16th oenturr with the then ordinary rem. to the hHni male of the body of the grantee, the form of the Reatitation Act of 1885 (reoognistng the aneient Earldom aa belonging to the heir of line) wan the obf ions way of eiTecting juatice without flatly oontra- ▼ening the eoceutric nnd baKrlem deciaiun of but ten yeara before. To effect thia 'The Bill [without affirming that there waa a lawful forfeiture or aurrender] proceeda upon the auppoeition that there may have been and probablp waa a lawful forfeiture or aurrender.' [Statement of Lord Selbome, Chairman of the Committee in 1885]. If there waa no forfeiture, the ancient Earldom waa poiacaaed by the Earl who died in 1866, and at hia death paaaed at once to the heir of line, but the anomalona dectaton of 1875 (which attnbuted a 16th oentury Earldom of Mar to that Earl) caattng doubt on auch poaaeeirion, the Act of 1885 put the heir of line in poeaeeaion of the ancient Earldom aa if it had been forfeited and he had been by that Act reatored to it."
