Supreme Court of Pennsylvania September 15, 1850 (Sowers v. Vie)

Per curiam.

— There is no more reason that leasehold should be sold on the premises than that freehold should. It would frequently be difficult, and always unprofitable, to collect a crowd in a mine, or at a ferry, or on the shore of a fishery; for no man bids for either freehold or leasehold, without having investigated the qualities and value of the property.
