_Glass in Windows formerly not a Fixture._--In Brooke's _Abridgement_,

tit. "Chatteles," it appears that in the 21st Hen. VII., A.D. 1505, it

was held that though the frame-work of the windows belonged to the heir,

the _glass_ was the property of the executors, and might therefore be

removed by them, "_quar le meason est perfite sauns le glasse_." In A.D.

1599 Lord Coke informs us it was in the Common Pleas "resolved _per

totam curiam_, that glass annexed to windows by nails, or in any other

manner, could not be removed; for without glass it is no perfect house."
