...but what does it do?

[edit]

This is a bare-bones history: formed, altered, abolished. I get that. But what exactly did the Court of Chancery do? I see the term used in some old family legal documents, but don't understand what the court was about. Adding an description of the purpose and scope of the court would be appreciated.
