Ci'tate for life and a tenancy at will; for thofe who held large Rm: diitriels and tracts of lands, being unacquainted with the arts of hulbandry and tillage, found it their intereft to leafe out their de mefues, which for want of care and cultivation lay wafie, and afforded them little or no profit; and this way of letting for years was thought belt to anfwer the defign and intentions of the lord, as well as the eatpeflations of the tenant; for if they had let them for life, this had given the tenants too great a power over the lord, becaufe then they would have had a property in the freehold, and by fuffering difleifins, or feigned recoveries to be had againfl them felves, might have {halten or endangered the inheritance of the owner; and on the other fide, if they had leafed their land only at will, few would have been willing to befiow any great pains or in dufiry upon [0 precarious a pofl'efiion, which the arbitrary will and pleafure of a peevilh lord might have defeated.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
