""A Letter To Sir Edward Knatchbull: Relating To The Bill Before Parliament, For The Enfranchisement Of Lands Of Copyhold Tenure"" is a book written by Edward Knatchbull in 1839. The book is a letter addressed to Sir Edward Knatchbull, a British politician who served as a Member of Parliament for several constituencies during the 19th century. The letter discusses a bill that was before the British Parliament at the time, which aimed to enfranchise lands of copyhold tenure. Copyhold tenure was a type of land tenure that existed in England and Wales until the 19th century, which involved a tenant holding land from a lord of the manor in exchange for certain services or payments. The bill sought to convert copyhold tenure into freehold tenure, which would give tenants greater security and ownership rights over their land. The book provides an insight into the legal and political debates surrounding land tenure in 19th century Britain, and sheds light on the efforts to reform the country's land laws.Contains A Letter From The Queen To The People, On The General State Of The Country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
