Allotments
Allotments. Many (English) Acts (see chit. Stat., tit. 'Allotments') have been passed authorizing parish officers to let out to poor persons small quantities of parish land or land originally allotted under inclosure Acts for the benefit of the poor. The Small Holdings and Allotments Act, 1908 (Part II.), empowers parish, urban, borough or county councils to provide plots of land for persons belonging to the labouring population of the locality to cultivate as farms or gardens. Land for allotments may be acquired compulsorily by the above bodies (ss. 12 and 27, Land Settlement (Facilities) Act, 1919) (as amended by the 1925 Act, s. 1). This Act as amended by the Allotments Act, 1922, necessitates a six months' or longer notice to quit (but see s. 30(2) of the Act, 1908, and s. 1 of the Act of 1922), and provides, notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, for compensation to an outgoing tenant by the landlord for growing crops, manure, improvement, etc. (s. 47 of the Act of 1908, a...

Clerical error
Clerical error, an error in a document which can only be explained by considering it to be a slip or mistake of the party preparing or copying it. Clerical errors in judgments or orders may be corrected by the Court or a judge under R.S.C. Ord. XXVIII., r. 11, and in awards, by the arbitrator, under the Arbitration Act, 1889 (52 & 53 Vict. c. 49), s. 7; and for the inherent right of a Court to correct an error or supply an accidental omission, see Milson v. Carter, 1893 AC 640.As to contracts, clerical errors have frequently been corrected by application of the maxims, Qui h'ret in litera, h'ret in cortice, or, Mala grammctica non vitiat chartam. A clerical error in a lease for ninety-four years at a yearly rent 'during the said term of ninety-one years and a quarter' was corrected by the counterpart into ninety-one years and a quarter, in Burchell v. Clark, (1876) 2 CPD 88, by a majority of the Court of Appeal; and see Spyve v. Topham, (1802) 3 East 115; and other cases showing that c...
