Quit rent (quietus redditus), a rent payable to the lord by a freeholder or ancient copyholder of a manor, so called because thereby the tenant goes quit and free of all other services, 2 Bl. Com. 42. As no manor has been created since the statute Quia Emptores (see MANOR; QUIA EMPTORES), every quit rent must have become first payable at a date prior to that statute.A quit rent may be 'redeemed' by the owner of the land subject thereto, under s. 45 of the Con-veyancing Act, 1881, reproduced by the Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 191. Also to the remedies for non-payment, see s. 121 and ibid.Means a payment to a feudal lord by a freeholder or copyholder, so called because upon payment the tenant goes 'quit and free' (discharged) of all other services, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 1262....
Regress, Lettrs of
Regress, Lettrs of. They were granted by the superior of lands mortgaged to the wadsettor or mortgagor. Their object was this: by the wadset or mortgage, the mortgagor was completely divested, and when he redeemed, he appeared to claim an entry from the superior as a stranger, and the superior was no more bound to receive the mortgagor than he would have been forced to receive any third party; to remedy this, letters of regress were granted by the superior under which he became bound to re-admit the wadsettor at any time when he should demand entry, Bell's Scots Law Dict....
Rent
Rent [fr. reditus Lat.], a certain profit issuing yearly out of lands and tenements corporeal; it may be regarded as of a two fold nature--first, as some-thing issuing out of the land, as a compensation for the possession during the term; and secondly, as an acknowledgment made by the tenant to the lord of his fealty or tenure. It must always be a profit, yet there is no necessity that it should be, as it usually is, a sum of money; for spurs, capons, horses, corn, and other matters, may be, and occasionally are, rendered by way of rent; it may also consist in services or manual operations, as to plough so many acres of ground and the like; which services, in the eye of the law, are profits. The profit must be certain, or that which may be reduced to a certainty by either party; it must issue yearly, though it may be reserved every second, third, or fourth year; it must issue out of the thing granted, and not be part of the land or the thing itself.Consideration paid, usu. periodically...
Stock
Stock, a race, lineage, or family; also, the public funds [for definition, see (English) National Debt Act, 1870, Part VII., and 20 & 21 Geo. 5, c. 28, s. 49 (1)], considered merely as perpetual annuities redeemable at the pleasure of the Government; also, the capital of a public company, as to which see SHARES.The plain meaning of the word 'stock' in these provisions of the Act is 'to keep' and the injunction of the law means no more than this that no person shall keep for sale a misbranded drug or a drug in respect of which a valid licence is not held. It is not necessary that the drug should be 'stored' in a place in order that it can be said to have been 'stocked' for sale, S.K. Amir v. State of Maharashtra, AIR 1974 SC 469: (1974) 4 SCC 210: (1974) 3 SCR 84.
