Henry II., but apparently not so See also:early as Domesday, the expression liberum tenementum was introduced to designate land held by a freeman by a See also:free See also:tenure. Thus freehold tenure is the sum of the rights and duties which
constitute the relation of a free See also:tenant to his See also:lord."2 In this
' Her See also:maiden name was See also:Mary See also:Ludwig. " Molly See also:Pitcher " was a See also:nickname given to her by the soldiers in reference to her carrying See also:water to soldiers overcome by See also:heat in the See also:battle of See also:Monmouth.

She lived for more than See also:forty years at See also:Carlisle, See also:Penn., where a See also:monument was erected to her memory in 1876.
2 See also:Digby's See also:History of the Law of Real Property.sense freehold is distinguished from See also:copyhold, which is a tenure having its origin in the relation of lord and villein (see COPYHOLD). Freehold is also distinguished from leasehold, which is an estate for a fixed number of years only.

office for life is sometimes said to be a freehold interest. The term customary freeholds is applied to a See also:kind of copyhold tenure in the See also:north of See also:England, viz. tenure by copy of See also:court-See also:roll, but not, as in other cases, expressed to be at the will of the lord.
