EVENING gUN

useful:—

Before you take lodgings, particularly those which are
unfurnished, you should see that the rent of the house is
paid up, and will likely continue to be paid; for if not,
your furniturenand goods will be liable. You should
also make inquiries on the subject of the housekeeper's
landlord, and also of the tax-gatherer and collector of
the parochial rates ; for if distresses are levied for them
also, it may cause you considerable inconvenience, though
for the latter your goods have no right to be seized. If
you take fixtures from an outgoing tenant, be careful to
ascertain that you are not paying for what in fact be-
long to the premises, and which the individual selling
has no right to dispose of. There should always be a
written agreement, specifying the terms of the letting ;
the amount of rent; the time of entry; the length of
notice to pit required, and such other matters as the
particular circumstances of y our case may require. If
the lodgings are furnished, it will be requisite for you
to have a schedule of the goods they contain affixed to
your agreement.
Is a lodger justified in quitting apartments without
notice, merely from a fear that his goods may be seized
for his landlord's rent?
No ; however reasonable his fears may be, he cannot
remove without notice.—Rickett v. Tullick, 6 Carr. and
Payne, 66.
A person who verbally agrees to take apartments in the
house of another, upon the strength of which the bill for
letting is removed from the window, cannot be compelled
to perform his undertaking, which is void within the
meaning of the 4th section of the Statute of Frauds ;
but it is otherwise if the party had paid anything in
earnest, or entered on the premises, which would ap-
pear as part execution of the contract ; which, if so,
would enable you to maintain an action of assunipsit
against him for not occupying the lodgings pursuant to
the undertaking.—lnman and Stamp, Stark 12.
