From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) :   [ bouvier ]

  RECITAL, contracts, pleading. The repetition of some former writing, or the 
  statement of something which has been done. Touchst. 76. 
       2. Recitals are used to explain those matters of fact which are 
  necessary to make the transaction intelligible. 2 Bl. Com. 298. It is said 
  that when a deed of defeasance recites the deed which it is meant to defeat, 
  it must recite it truly. Cruise, Dig. tit. 32, c 7, s. 28. In other cases it 
  need not be so particular. 3 Penna. Rep. 324; 3 Chan. Cas. 101; Co. Litt. 
  352 b; Com. Dig. Fait, E 1. 
       3. A party who executes a deed reciting a particular fact is estopped 
  from denying such fact; as, when it was recited in the condition of a bond 
  that the obligor had received divers sums of money for the obligee which he 
  had not brought to account, and acknowledged that a balance was due to the 
  obligee, it was holden that the obligor was estopped to say that he had not 
  received any money for the use of the obligee. Willes, 9, 25; Rolle's Ab. 
  872, 3. 
       4. In pleading, when public statutes are recited, a small variance will 
  not be fatal, where by the recital the party is not "tied up to the 
  statute;" that is, if the conclusion be contra formam statuti praediti. Sav. 
  42; 1 Chit. Crim. Law, 276 Esp. on Penal Stat. 106. Private statutes must be 
  recited in pleading, and proved by an exemplified copy, unless the opposite 
  party, by his pleading admit them. 
       5. By the plea of nul tiel record, the party relying on a private 
  statute is put to prove it as recited, and a variance will be fatal. See 4 
  Co. 76; March, Rep. 117, pl. 193; 3 Harr. & McHen. 388. Vide. generally, 12 
  Vin. Ab. 129; 13 Vin. Ab. 417; 18 Vin. Ab. 162; 8 Com. Dig. 584; Com. Dig. 
  Testemoigne Evid. B 5; 4 Binn. R. 231; 1 Dall. R. 67; 3 Binn. R. 175; 3 
  Yeates, R. 287; 4 Yeates, R. 362, 577; 9 Cowen, R. 86; 4 Mason, R. 268; 
  Yelv. R. 127 a, note 1; Cruise, Dig. tit. 32, c. 20, s. 23; 5 Johns. Ch. 
  Rep. 23; 7 Halst. R. 22; 2 Bailey's R. 101; 6 Harr. & Johns. 336; 9 Cowen's 
  R. 271; 1 Dana's R. 327; 15 Pick. R. 68; 5 N. H. Rep. 467; 12 Pick. R, 157; 
  Toullier in his Droit Civil Francais, liv. 3, t. 3, c. 6, n. 157 et seq. has 
  examined this subject with his usual ability. 2 Hill. Ab. c. 29, s. 30; 2 
  Bail. R. 430; 2 B. & A. 625; 2 Y. & J. 407; 5 Harr. & John. 164; Cov. on 
  Conv. Ev. 298, 315; Hurl. on Bonds, 33; 6 Watts & Serg. 469. 
       6. Formerly, in equity, the decree contained recitals of the pleadings 
  in the cause, which became a great grievance. Some of the English 
  chancellors endeavored to restrain this prolixity. By the rules of practice 
  for the courts in equity of the United States it is provided, that in 
  drawing up decrees and orders, neither the bill, nor the answer, nor other 
  pleading nor any part thereof, nor the report of any master, nor any other 
  prior proceedings, shall be stated or recited in the decree or order. Rule 
  86; 4 Bouv. Inst. n. 4443.
