At Common Law. A term which is applied to land in its most enlarged signification. Ileal security, therefore, means the security of mortgages or other incumbrances affecting lands.
2 Atk. 806; s. c. 2 Ves. Sen. 547.
In Civil Law. That which relates to a thing, whether it be movable or immovable, lands or goods: thus, a real injury is one which is done to a thing, as a trespass to property, whether it be real or personal in the common-law sense. A real statute is one which relates to a thing, in contradistinction to such as relate to a person.
