THE HISTORY OF LANDHOLDING IN ENGLAND.
BY JOSEPH FISHER, F.R.H.S.
Quote:
It may not be out of place here to allude to the use of the word property with reference to land; property--from proprium, my own--is something pertaining to man. I have a property in myself. I have
the right to be free. All that proceeds from myself, my thoughts, my writings, my works, are property; but no man made land, and therefore it is not property. This incorrect application of the word is the more striking in England, where the largest title a man can have is "tenancy in fee," and a tenant holds but does not own.
