18. When a village, field, or garden is referred to
in one and the same grant, they are (considered to
be) possessed of all of them, though possession be
held of part of them only. (On the other hand) that
title has no force which is not accompanied by a
slight measure of possession even.
19. Not to possess landed property, not to show
a document in the proper time, and not to remind
witnesses (of their deposition): this is the way to lose
one’s property.
20. Therefore evidence should be preserved care-
fully ; if this be done, lawsuits whether relating to
immovable or to movable property are sure to
succeed.
21. Female slaves can never be acquired by pos-
session, without a written title; nor (does posses-
sion create ownership) in the case of property be-
longing to a king, or to a learned Brahman, or to an
idiot, or infant.
22. It is not by mere force of possession that land
becomes a man’s property; a legitimate title also
having been proved, it is converted into property by
both (possession and title), but not otherwise.
