ing principles affecting landlords and
creditors oftenants, in manner worthy
Of being promulgated.
A creditor Of a tenant attached and
removed from the premises, the man..

and also attached and removed fence
procured and erected on the farm by
| the tenant, at the special request Of bis
landlord, & to be paid for from the rents
/ growing due, at the close ofthe term.
The action was trespass against the
officer for taking and carrying away
the property Of the landlord.
The defence rested upon two princi-

fit, and like other personal estate was
attachable; and as to the fence as the
agreement between The plaintiff and bis
tenant was not inchoate, to be complet-
ed at the close of the term, the pro-
perry belonged to the tenant and was
liable to be taken to pay his debts.

ed in the cause Of sufficient importance
to demand a deliberate opinion, and,
after mature consideration, decided
| that il at the time of the attachment
The fence was erected under such cir
cumstances as satisfied the jury that
the intention Of the parties was that j,
should permanently remain, it became
q part Of the reality, and not subject
of attachment.
As to the manure, the judge laid it
down as general principle, that such
as is made on farm in the ordinary
way, is made for the farm, rests upon
the soil Of the farm, is necessary to the
farm and inseperable from it, and con,
sequen,ly not liable TO attachment for
tenenl's debts. This decision is i'm.
portant to officers that they may not
buy wit too dear, and particularly to
/ landlords, that they may understand
| the relation they bear to those who may
occupy their lands.
