2.  Right  to  Allotments.'] — It  is  usual  to  allot  a  twentieth  part  of  the  waste
to  the  Imrd,  in  respect  of  his  right  as  lord  of  the  manor;  out  besides  this
allotaient,  he  is  entitled  to  an  allotment  under  an  inclosure  act,  in  respect
of  bis  demesnes  of  the  manor,  over  and  above  the  allotment  awarded  to
hhn  by  the  act  in  respect  of  his  right  as  lord  of  the  manor  (r).  After
anoAer  portion,  usually  two-fifteenths  or  two-sixteenths,  as  directed  by  the
ac^  has  been  allotted  to  the  parson,  the  remainder  is  divided  amongst  the
proprietors  possessing  rights  of  common.  In  making  this  division,  it  is
eonadered  that  the  owner  of  a  tenement  may  have  two  distinct  rights  of
common  for  his  cattle  levant  and  couchant  upon  such  tenement,  on  differ-
ent wastes  in  different  manors  under  several  lords ;  and  therefore  that  an
allotment  under  one  inclosure  act,  in  lieu  of  his  right  of  common,  upon
ene  of  such  wastes,  will  not  do  away  or  lessen  hb  claim  for  an  equal  al-
lotment widi  other  commoners,  un^er  a  subsequent  act  for  inclosing  the
other  waste;  although  it  would  be  otherwise,  if  the  different  wastes  had
iqppeared  to  have  been  originally  held  under  the  same  lord  (f).  Where
no  special  provision  is  made  to  the  contrary,  the  allotments  are  free-
hold {t) ;  but  a  provision  is  almost  universally  made,  that  the  allotments
shall  follow  the  nature  of  the  tenure  of  the  land,  in  respect  of  which  they
are  made.
