Geo Lave THE LAW OF COMPENSATION FOR UNEXHAUSTED Agricultural Improvements, AS AMENDED BY THE AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGS (ENGLAND) ACTS, 1883 to 1900, AND THE ALLOTMENTS & COTTAGE GARDENS COMPENSATION Taith the Statutes and Forms. THIRD EDITION. BY J. W. WILLIS BUND, ESQ., M.A., LL.B., OF LINCOLN'S INN, BARRISTER-AT-LAW. Editor of "Oke's Game Laws," "Oke's Fishery Laws," etc., AND HENRY STEPHEN, ESQ., OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE, BARRISTER-AT-LAW, AND OF THE UNITED STATES BAR. LONDON: BUTTERWORTH & CO., 12, BELL YARD, TEMPLE BAR, W.C. Law Printers and Publishers. PREFACE TO THIRD EDITION. HIS Edition of the Law of Compensation THIS for Unexhausted Agricultural Improvements contains the group of Acts known as the Agricultural Holdings (England) Acts, 1883 to 1900, and the Allotments and Cottage Gardens Compensation for Crops Act, 1887. The second Edition of Mr. WILLIS BUND's Book, contained the Agricultural Holdings (Scotland) Act of 1883, but it has been considered advisable in the present Edition to eliminate that Act, and to add the Tenants Compensation Act, 1890, the Market Gardeners' Compensation Act, 1895, and the Allotments and Cottage Gardens Compensation for Crops Act, 1887. This Edition also contains a list of the existing customs applicable to Agricultural Holdings, which has been brought down to the present time, and we believe it may be said to be as accurate as it is possible to get it, thanks to the kindness of many Land Agents, who have been good enough to revise the manuscript, and to whom we tender our thanks. The decisions upon the Acts dealt with herein up to the date of publication have been interpolated, by way of annotation to to the Statutes, and the changes made by other Legislation duly noted. A comprehensive list of forms, which it is hoped will be found useful in cases of landlord and agricultural tenants' agreements, is added. J. W. WILLIS BUND, LINCOLN'S INN.
