"The pretended lessee, the nominal plaintiff in Lady Ivie's case, was Elam Mossam, who alleged that he held under a lease from Thomas Neale, the real claimant.  Neale derived his title under a lease for lives from the dean and chapter of St. Paul's . . . The question to be tried was whether Neale as lessee, claiming under the Dean and Chapter, or Lady Iviehad the better claim to the land."--p. xx.
