HISTORY OF VERNON COUNTY.
ment of the fence viewers, within whose ju¬ risdiction the same may be, shallbe deemed legal and sufficient fences. Every partition of a fence, or line upon which a fence is to be built, made by the owners of the adjoining lands, in writing, sealed and witnessed by two witnesses, or by fence viewers in writing, under their hands, after being recorded in the town clerk's office, shall oblige such owners and their heirs , as long as they remain owners, and after parting with the ownership, until a new partition is made. A division of a parti¬ tion fence, or line upon which a partition fence between adjoining lands shall be built, may be made by fence viewers in the following cases :
1. When any owner of uninclosed lands shall desire to inclose the same, he may have the line between his land and the adjoining land of any other person divided, and the por¬ tion upon which the respective owners shall erect their share of the partition fence assigned, whether such adjoining land be inclosed or not.
2. When any lands belonging to different per¬ sons in severalty, shall have been occupied in common, or without a partition fence between them, and one of the occupants shall be desirous to occupy his part in severalty, and the oth¬ ers shall refuse or neglect, on demand, to divide with him the line where the fence ought to be built, or to build a sufficient fence on his part of the line, when divided, the occupant desiring it may have the same divided, and the share of each assigned.
3. When any controversy shall arise about the right ot the respective occupants in partition fences, or their obligations to maintain the same, either party may have the line divided, and the share of each assigned.
In either case, application may be made to two or more fence viewers of the town where the lands lie, who shall give reasonable notice in writing to each party, and they shall in writing under their hands, divide the partition fence or line, and assign to each owner or occupant
his share thereof, and in the second and third cases direct within what time each party shall build or repair his share of the fence, hav¬ ing regard to the season of the year, and shall file such decision in the town clerk's office. If either party shall neglect or refuse to build or repair within the time so assigned his part of the fence, the other may, after having completed his own part, build or repair such part, and re- ^ cover double the expense thereof.
Where the whole or a greater share than be¬ longs to him has been built by one of the occu¬ pants, before complaint to the fence viewers, the other shall be obliged to pay for his share of such fence.
Where uninclosed land is,afterward inclosed, the owner shall pay for one-half the partition fence upon the line between him and any other owner or occupant.
If any person shall determine not to keep in¬ closed any part of his land adjoining any par¬ tition fence, and shall give six months' notice of such determination to all adjoining occupants, he shall not be required to maintain any part of such fence during the time his lands shall lie open.
LANDLORD AND TENANT.
The common law right to destrain for rent is abolished.
The atonement of a tenant to a stranger shall be absolutely void, and shall not in anywise effect the possession of his landlord, unless it be made
1. With the consent of the landlord; or
2. Pursuant to, or in consequence of, a judg¬ ment or order of a court of competent jurisdic¬ tion; or
3. To a purchaser upon a judicial sale, who shall have acquired title to the lands by a con¬ veyance thereof, after the period for redemp¬ tion, if any, has expired. A tenancy, a will or sufferance may be determined by the landlord, giving one month's notice to quit, or the tenant giving one month's notice of his intention to quit, or if the terms of payment are for less than
