Excerpt from Trye V. Leinster: Or, an Englishman's Experience of the Working of the Landlord and Tenant (Ireland) Act, 1870 The principal defect in the Landlord and Tenant (ireland) Act of 1870 is, in inv humble opinion, that under it all disputes between landlord and tenant have to be decided either by a County Chairman or a Judge of Assize, unless both parties are willing to leave the matter to arbitration. If my experience of the working of the Act only helps to bring all persons interested in Irish agriculture to the same opinion, and to show them that in order to remedy this defect some such amendment as the following is necessary viz., that all such disputes should go before a mixed jury of landlords and tenants, or a court of arbitra tion, even when only one of the parties is willing, I shall feel'that I have helped forward the cause of the tenant-farmer, and that the money I have spent in law has not been altogether thrown away.
