RATHER SHARP PRACTICE.
Samuel Hart, farmer, Winfarthing, v. Sarah Wright, widow. This was a claim of £4 6s. for damage done to a house.
Defendantrsquo;s husband died in 1865, and she left the house at Michaelmas, 1866, having paid the rent up to that time,-but neglected, to give the legal notice to quit. It was also alleged that defendant had taken down some shelving, door posts, and other matters.
Mrs. Wright said her husband put up the shelving and the door posts and she therefore thought they were her property.
Plaintiff said he merely wished to show his tenants that-they could not leave just when they liked. The house stood empty from Michaelmas, 1866, to Michaelmas, 1867, and he never tried to let it. He also boarded up the windows.
His Honour thought plaintiff might have done better than by selecting a widow to make an example of, and as he had exercised an ownership by boarding of the windows, the rent would be disallowed.
Judgment for £1 for the; shelving, &c, at 2s. per month.
