Introduction to Evidence
Evidence, the means by which disputed facts are proved to be true or untrue in any trial before a court of law or an agency that functions like a court. Because American law is committed to a rational rather than a formalistic system of evidence, no value is assigned to the form or the quantity of evidence offered. Effectiveness is generally determined by how persuasive the evidence seems, especially to a jury.
In a few cases formal rules are enforced. Treason must be proved by the testimony of two witnesses, and in several states two witnesses are required for a perjury conviction. Some transactions, such as wills, transfers of land, and the sale of very valuable goods, must be evidenced by written documents." (1)
Trust, Evidence
From the book The Clergyman's Hand-book of Law, about Trust, Evidence (1): Without any trust being declared in writing, parol evidence can not be allowed to prove that the Catholic Church and parsonage is held in trust for the congregation by the bishop of the diocese, notwithstanding that the moneys for purchasing the lands and putting up such buildings were collected by subscriptions and contributions made to the priest in charge under the law, usage, and polity of the Roman Catholic Church.489 At common law land may be granted to pious uses before there is a grantee to take it
. In the meantime, the title is in abeyance.490 Where the title to parsonage lands is in the minister as a sole corporation, on his death the title remains in abeyance until a successor is appointed.491
