(b) No reference is made in the deed to the legacy duty, but both the trustees and the owner of the land ought to see that before the mortgage is made the legatee has satisfied the stamp-office in respect of duty, and that a properly stamped receipt has been given. For, by the stat. 45 Geo. 3, c. 28, s. 5, the duties on legacies payable out of real estate are to be paid by the owner of the estate and retained out of the legacy. And where there is more than one owner in possession, it seems that they are all liable. (Attorney-General v. Jackson, 2 Cro. & Jer. 101). It must, however, be remembered, that a direction that the legacy shall be paid without deduction and other similar expressions would throw the duty on the land. (1 Wm's Executors, Pt. 3, Bk. 5, Ch. III; Sanders v. Kiddell, 7 Sim. 356).
