A QUESTION.
TO Tilt; EDITOR. Sii:,— Will you kindly give a poor man advice under the following circumstances : I took a house some time ago at a fixed rental for two years. Tho agreement was stamped with a shilling stamp, and 1 had a witness. The landlord has since sold tho property, aud the present landlord tells me the agreement is not worth anything. Is this true, and have 1 any remedy? By answering this in your paper you will confer a very great favour on,—-J am, Ac, A CITIZEX. April 2-lth. [As the law of landlord and tenant is the most barbarous and unjust in the world, wo must refer you to a solicitor for advice on which to act. Put it seems to us that, whatever your position may be as regards the house, you ought to have ground for damages against your landlord, who has treated you disgracefully. The law pretends that it provides, a remedy for every tort. Try it.—Ed. N.Z. Mail]
