DEF

The bringing together of properties into a common lot so that equality of division may be assured. (Curzon, 2nd, p. 173)

CONT

In cases where the testator states by recital in his will the sum advances, a mistake in the amount is immaterial if the hotchpot clause clearly directs hotchpot of the sum recited to have been advances, but if the clause directs hotchpot of that sum or so much thereof as remains unpaid, the intention is inferred that only the amount actually owing is to be brought into account, and the mistake may be corrected. (Williams' Law Relating to Wills, 4th, p. 673)
