The fact, "simpliciter", that the parties to an instrument are described as "assignor" and "assignee" does not make the instrument, which in substance is a sub-agreement of sale, an assignment. There is no privity of contract between the head-vendor and a sub-purchaser. A sub-agreement does not operate as an assignment of the head agreement but is a separate and independent contract, and, thus, a sub-purchaser has no direct claim against the head-vendor and he is thus free to impose such terms as he sees fit as consideration for a transfer directly from himself to the sub-purchaser.(Di Castri, 2nd ed., 1975, p. 413)  1, record 9, English, - sub%2Dagreement%20of%20sale

Delivery, handing over, or giving for a specific purpose. (Oxford, 1933).  2, record 11, English, - bailment

Record number: 11, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Bailment is essentially a delivery on terms ... In Termes de la Ley it is written: "Bailment is a delivery of things whether it be of writings, goods or stuff to another, sometimes to be delivered back to the bailor, that is to him that so delivered it, sometimes to the use of the bailee, that is to say, of him to whom it is delivered, and sometimes also it is delivered to a third person." (Crossley Vaines, 5th ed., 1973, p. 76).  2, record 11, English, - bailment

Record number: 11, Textual support number: 2 CONT

(T)he quintessential characteristic of bailment (is) the division of possession and ownership, a division that results in the coexistence of two property rights - the bailor’s title and the bailee’s possession - in the same object. (Mendes da Costa & Balfour, 1982, p. 125).  2, record 11, English, - bailment

Record number: 11, Textual support number: 3 CONT

The bailment may be, and generally is, a contract, e. g., for storage and the like, but it may be independent of contract, as where a man becomes a bailee by finding a chattel and taking it into his possession for safe custody...(Crossley Vaines, supra, p. 70).  2, record 11, English, - bailment
