What is the effect of an advertisement in the advertisement of a change of possession?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Hovey v. Whiting, 1887 CanLII 16 (ON CA):

The advertisement gave notoriety to the fact of the change of possession; and if there were any dispute on the subject, one cannot doubt that the execution plaintiffs would be found to have known all about it, and that if it had been the case that the change of possession, though actual as between the company and the assignee, was not apparent to a casual observer, that circumstance could not benefit the parties who had knowledge of it. See Danford v. Danford, 8 A.R. 518, where the head-note scarcely conveys the effect of the decision.
