Excerpt from The Law of Distress: With an Appendix of Forms, Table of Statutes, Practice
A second Edition of this Book having been called for, we have carefully revised the whole work, and included the Law of Distress Amendment Act, 1888, which contains important alterations with regard to bailiffs and appraisements, and adopts sects. 50 and 52 of the Agricultural Holdings (england) Act, 1888, making these sections now apply to any holdings, and not, as previously, to holdings under the Act.
It also confers a new exemption from distress upon wearing apparel, bedding, and tools of trade to the value of £5, following the provisions of sect. 96 of the County Courts Act, 1846, with regard to executions.

The book analyzes who possesses the right to distrain, ranging from landlords and mortgagees to executors and administrators, and dissects the types of goods that can or cannot be seized. The author examines the procedures involved in the distress process, encompassing aspects such as demand of rent, seizure, impoundment, appraisal, and sale of goods. The book also delves into the various legal remedies available to tenants facing a wrongful or irregular distress, such as rescue, pound breach, and replevin. The author discusses the limitations and exceptions surrounding the right to distrain, including statutory exemptions and legal agreements that can restrict or abolish this power.
