CREWKERNE.

(Before Mr. Serjeant TINDAL ATKINSON, Judge.)
March 9.-Pattimore v. Parker and others.

Agricultural Holdings (England) Act, 1875-Meaning of term "holding."

In this case his HONOUR said,─This is an action brought by the plaintiff, in which he seeks to recover damages from the defendants for an alleged trespass committed by them upon land in the occupation of the plaintiff at Crewkerne. I reserved giving judgment at the hearing in order to have the opportunity of considering the point raised by Mr. Jolliffe for the plaintiff-namely, whether that portion of the Agricultural Holdings Act, 1875, which enacts that in cases where a half-year's notice expiring with the year of tenancy is by law sufficient to terminate a tenancy from year to year, a year's notice in such cases must be given, applies. After a careful consideration of the evidence, which was of a very conflicting character, I have arrived at the conclusion that the land the subject of this inquiry, the area of which is under two acres, was held by the plaintiff from the two defendants, Parker and Marks, under a separate and independent contract of tenancy totally distinct and apart from other land of the same tenure-namely, from year to year-which he held at the same time from the defendants. A six months' notice to quit the land the subject of the present action was given by the defendants to the plaintiff, and unless the provisions of the Agricultural Act intervene to prevent it, the notice would be sufficient to determine the tenancy between the parties. On the morning of the last day of the notice to quit -viz., the 29th of September, 1880-the son of the defendant Elizabeth French came upon the land by her direction, under an authority given to her by the two defendants, with a horse and cart and a plough, no doubt with the intention to take possession and to exercise acts of ownership over it. This being the trespass complained of, I do not find that any circumstances of aggravation or insult accompanied it. The horse and cart and plough were, at the request of the plaintiff, immediately removed by the defendant's son into an adjoining field, and the plaintiff was left in quiet possession of the land for the remainder of the day. Under any view of the case it is a fact that a trespass was committed, inasmuch as, apart from any question arising under the Agricultural Holdings Act, the plaintiff's tenancy was not determined under the notice to quit until 12 o'clock at night of that day. But then it may be asked what damage was caused by it to the plaintiff? In all actions of this nature, trespass or injury to land, the measure of damage is the diminished value of the property, or of the plaintiff's interest in it; and applying this rule to the facts of this case, I can see no perceptible loss that has been sustained by the plaintiff, and with regard to the action, although I find a verdict for plaintiff, it must be only with nominal damages. But the case does not end here. It is contended for the plaintiff that the notice to quit given by the defendant does not, under the provisions of the Agricultural Holdings Act, terminate the tenancy, and that the plaintiff's interest in the land continued until it was determined by a year's notice, and that the defendants having evicted the plaintiff and taken possession of the land he is entitled to substantial damages. It becomes, therefore, from this point of view, important to consider whether this contention is well founded Having found as a fact in the case that the land in question was the subject of a separate and distinct demise, originally for a term of six months, but afterwards, by the payment and receipt of rent, converted into a tenancy from year to year, and also that the plaintiff at the same time held other land on a

in the absence of any authority on the subject, whether the two holdings can, under the provisions of the statute, be coupled together so as form one holding, and thus render a year's notice necessary for the determination of the tenancy between the parties. The statute contains no preamble. The 51st section enacts that where a half-year's notice, expiring with a year of tenancy, is necessary for the determination of a tenancy from year to year in cases not within the statute, a year's notice is required for the same purpose in cases within it. The interpretation clause,

section 4, defines the word "tenant" to mean the holder of

words, "all land held of the same landlord," to land held by
the tenant as described and contained under one and the
same demise. With regard to separate holdings of land
under one landlord, it has always been the law from
the earliest times that a distress for rent must be
made on the land from whence the rent issues and not
elsewhere, save when the Crown is a party, and latterly in
the case of fraudulent removals. In Gilbert's "Law of Dis-
tress," a case is cited from "Strange's Reports," in which,
in a trespass for taking goods, the defendant justified that
he demised some tenements to the plaintiff for one term, and
others for another term, and, the rent being in arrear, he
distrained the goods; the justification was held to be bad in
law, on the ground that there being separate demises, there
ought to be separate distresses on the several premises subject
to the distinct rents. Mr. Jolliffe, in his argument at
the hearing, seemed to have anticipated the diffi-
culty which would arise from an illustration of this
kind, when he cortended that, conceding the fact that
the contracts of tenancy in the present case were separate
contracts, still, looking at the objects of the statute, which
were of a remedial character and intended for the benefit of
the tenant, that the term "holding" in the interpretation
clause must be construed so as to include all land held by
the tenant under the same tenure from his land, and thus
give him what was intended, the protection of the Act. I
have come to the conclusion, not without some doubt and
hesitation, that this construction cannot be supported, and
that the land the subject of the present action being less
than two acres, and held under a separate demise, that the
land sought to be coupled with it cannot be brought into the
account so as to enable the plaintiff to demand a year's
notice, and that the tenancy was determined by the defend-
ant's notice of March 22, 1880. With regard to the tres-
pass there must be, as I have already said, a verdict for the
plaintiff, with nominal damages of a shilling. As, however,
the point raised is new, and is of importance, I give the
plaintiff liberty to appeal, if he should be so advised, by way
of a special case, and if the court should take a different view
of the construction of the statute to that which I have done,
then, in order to save the parties the costs of a new trial, one
of the terms may be that the damages are to be increased by
the sum of £5.
