RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------

Sale
Contracts. An agreement by which one of the contracting parties, called the seller, gives a thing and passes the title to it, in exchange for a certain price in current money, to the other party, who is called the buyer or purchaser, who, on his part, agrees to pay such price.
Gift
1) Conveyancing. A voluntary conveyance; that is, a conveyance not founded on the consideration of money or blood.

The act by which the owner of a thing, voluntarily transfers the title and possession of the same, from himself to another person who accepts it, without any consideration. It differs from a grant, sale, or barter in this, that in each of these cases there must be a consideration, and a gift, as the definitionstates, must be without consideration.
Legacy
A bequest or gift of goods or chattels by testament. This word, though properly applicable to bequests of personal estate only, has nevertheless been extended to property not technically within its import, in order to effectuate the intention of the testator, so as to include real property and annuities.
Transfer
Contracts The act by which the owner of a thing delivers it to another person, with the intent of passing the rights which he has in it to the latter.
Cession
1) Civil law. The act by which a party assigns or transfers property to a other; an assignment. 2) contracts. Yielding up; release. 3) Ecclesiastical law. When an ecclesiastic is created bishop, or when a parson takes another benefice, without dispensation, the first benefice becomes void by a legal cession, or surrender.
