Curious Leaseholds.
Some of the tenures are
exceedingly curious. A farm near

to the landlord a snowball in
midsummer and a red rose at
mus. The manor of is held
by a rental of two arrows and a loaf
of bread. An estate in the north of
England is held by the exhibition
before n court every seven years of
a certain race owned by the family,
another in Suffolk an annual
rental of two while doves. The
British government holds land in
Chatham by paying the heirs of the
man from whom it was bought two
peppercorns. The man's descend-
ants now live in Holland, and the
are annually sent
