2. Candlemas-day. Scotch quarter-day. 6. Hereford-cattle, horses, and hops. Tenancy. A yearly tenant must take care that he gives notice to quit his premises half a year before the time of the expiration of the current year of his tenancy. If, by agreement, a quarter's notice is to be sufficient, such notice must also expire with the tenancy, if that is yearly.

Wills-After Jan. 1838, all wills made in England came under the provisions of the new Wills Act, of which an abstract was given in British Almanac for 1838. By it, all property may be disposed of by will; all wills must be in writing, and each must be signed at the bottom or end by the testator, or, if he is unable, by some person on his behalf, by his direction, and in his presence; and two, or more, attesting witnesses (who must be present at the same time) must also sign the will. If the testator wishes to acknowledge or reward

the attesting witnesses, he must do it in some other
way than by bequeathing them anything: for lega-
cies to attesting witnesses, or to the wife or hus-
band of an attesting witness, are void. No person
under twenty-one can make a valid will. Wills
are revoked by subsequent marriage; otherwise
a will can only be revoked by destruction, or by
the making of a new one; and alterations in wills
must be made in the same manner as a will is
made. Wills are to be construed as if made im-
mediately before the death of the testator, unless a
contrary intention is expressed; and properties be-
queathed in general terms include all property in
the possession of the testator at his decease, whe-
ther acquired before or after the will was made.
[If persons make their own wills, without legal
assistance, let them express themselves in a plain,
simple way, avoiding roundabout phrases, or at-
tempts to imitate legal phraseology.]
