Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Renewals in Respect to Leases for Lives Renewable for Ever in Ireland, With the Cases and Decisions Thereon: Including an Extensive Report of the Important and Heretofore Unpublished Case of Fitzsimon V. Burton, Also the Cases in Respect to the Renewals of Ecclesiastical Leases in Ireland, With Tables for the Calculation of Fines A Lease for lives renewable for ever is a tenure in a great measure peculiar to Ireland. The nature of this tenure is better expressed by the phrase so usual in this country, namely, "a lease for lives, with a clause of perpetual renewal." It is not a fee, because a fee is the entire estate, whereas in this case the estate is divided and the fee remains in the landlord, with the accompanying right to rent and fines: neither is it a fee-farm, because in that case the fee is in the tenant, but it resembles a fee in duration, because it is a continuing freehold, and it depends on the tenant himself, by the performance of his covenants, to make it a freehold for ever, or what is termed "a perpetuity." When the rent is low, and the fine nominal, this tenure will resemble a fee, not only in duration, but value also.
