RECONTINUANCE

seems to be used to signify that a person has recovered an incorporeal hereditament of which he had been wrongfully deprived. Thus, “A. is disseised of a mannor, whereunto an advowson is appendant, an estranger [i.e., neither A. nor the disseisor] usurpes to the advowson; If the disseisee [A.] enter into the mannor, the advowson la recontinued again, which was severed by the usurpation. And so note a dlversltie between a recon-tinuance and a remitter; for a remitter cannot be properly, unlesse there be two titles; but a recontinuance may be where there ia but one.” Co. Litt 8635; Sweet.
