This notice must be signed by the tenant or his agent, or, in 
case of the tenant's death, by his executors, and must be ad- 
dressed to the landlord or his agent. The improvements speci- 
fied in this notice belong to each one of the three classes 
distinguished in the Act. It will be necessary, therefore, for 
the tenant or his representatives to bear in mind the different 
periods within which each of his improvements remains unex- 
hausted, and to see that he does not include any of which he 
has enjoyed the full benefit during his tenancy. Here also it 
may be mentioned that the claim will pass upon bankruptcy to 
the tenant's assignees, who may urge and realise the claim for 
the benefit of the estate. 
The notice may either be given personally to the landlord or 
agent, or left for the landlord or agent at his last known place 
of abode in England, or by posting it to his last known place of 
abode in England ; but if so sent by post, the letter must be 
registered. The time of service in the event of such a letter 
being sent will be deemed to be the time when the letter would 
be delivered in ordinary course of post (§ 41). It will be neces- 
sary, therefore, to post the letter so that the notice shall reach 
the landlord or agent, in the terms of § 20, "one month at least" 
— by which is meant one calendar month — before " the deter- 
mination of the tenancy." The same three modes of service — 
personally, by messenger, or by letter — apply to any " notice, 
request, demand, or other instrument " under the Act, whether 
on the part of landlord to tenant, or of tenant to landlord (§ 41). 
As it may be necessary to prove service of notices, &c., a me- 
morandum should be made and preserved of the time and mode 
of such service ; and in the case of a letter, it will be necessary
