Lease
Lease [either from locatio, Lat., the letting of property, or laisser, Fr., to let, or leapum, or leasum, Sax., to enter lawfully], sometimes also called demise (demissio), is a grant of property for life, or years, or from year to year or at will, by one who has greater interest in the property. The person granting is called the lessor, who is possessed of the reversion (as to a reversion being essential to a lease, see 1 Platt on Lease, pp. 9 et seq.); he to whom the property is granted, the lessee. The consideration is usually the payment of a rent or other annual recompense. The ancient operative words were 'demise, lease, and to farm let,' or 'demise and lease.'The (English) Law of Property Act,1925, makes a distinction between leases for years which become legal estates if they consist of terms of years absolute and leases for life which have been converted into merely equitable interests if created under a settlement, but by s. 149 of the Act leases for life at a rent or in cons...
Tithe Rent-Charge
Tithe Rent-Charge. A charge on land, substituted by commutation for that charge on the produce of the land for the benefit of the Church, which was called tithe from being the tenth part of the increase yearly arising and renewing from the profits of lands, the stock upon lands, and the personal industry of the inhabitants; the first species being usually called pr'dial, the second mixed, the third personal.This commutation was effected by a procedure set on foot by the (English) Tithe Act, 1836 (6 & 7 Wm. 4, c. 71), amended by subsequent Acts. See Chitty's Stat., tit. 'Tithe Rent-Charge.' The amount to be paid was annually adjusted, according to the price of corn.The commutation was effected in one of two ways-either by a voluntary parochial agreement, con-firmed by the commissioners, or by the compulsory award of the commissioners. The value, either voluntarily agreed upon or awarded by the commissioners, was considered as the amount of the total rent-charge to be paid in respect of ...

Highways
Highways, all portions of land, and passage which every subject of the kingdom has a right to use. See Pratt on Highways; also defined by the Highway Act, 1835 (5 & 6 Will. 4, c. 50), s. 5, 'All roads, bridges (not being county bridges), carriage ways, cartways, horseways, bridleways, footways, cause-ways churchways and pavements. They exist either by prescription, by authority of Acts of Parliament, or by dedication to the use of the public; and see the Rights of Way Act, 1932 (22 & 23 Geo. 5, c. 45). The right of the public, when once acquired, is permanent and inalienable except by the authority of Parliament-'once a highway, always a highway.' It cannot be lost by abandonment or non-user, and the public retain the right, though they may never have occasion to use it. But the right is only a right of passing and repassing, pausing only for such time as is reasonable and usual when persons are using a highway as such. A man has no right to stand on the highway in order to shoot pheas...

In the interest of
In the interest of, clause 2 of Article 19 protects a law imposing reasonable restrictions on the exercise of the right to freedom of speech and expression 'in the interests of' public order, which is much wider than 'for maintenance of' public order. If certain activities have a tendency to cause public disorder, a law penalising such activities as an offence cannot but be held to be a law imposing reasonable restriction 'in the interests of' public order although in some cases those activities may not actually had to a breach of public order, Ramji Lal Modi v. State of U.P., AIR 1957 SC 620 (623): (1957) SCR 860. [Constitution of India, Art. 19(2)]...
In all
In all, the words 'in all' which occur in clause (a), must be resolved by having regard to the underlying legislative purpose of the provisions contained in Chap. VIII of the Act which deals with third party risks. That is a sensitive process which has to accommodate the claims of the society as reflected in that purpose. Indeed, it is in this area of legislative ambiguities, unfortunately not receding, that Courts have to fill gaps, clear doubts and mitigate hardships, Motor Owners' Insurance Company Limited v. Jadavji Keshavji Modi, AIR 1981 SC 2059: (1981) 4 SCC 660: (1982) 1 SCR 860. [Motor Vehicles Act (4 of 1939), s. 95(2)(9)]...
