This remedy by entry takes place in three only of the five species of ouster-viz., abatement, intrusion, and disseisin; for as in these the original entry of the wrongdoer was unlawful, they may therefore be remedied by the mere entry of him who has right. But upon a discontinuance or deforcement, the owner...
