1492. Demanding Rent
The landlord himself is the person most proper to demand rent; he may employ another person, but if he does, he must authorize him by letter, or by power of attorney; or the demand may be objected to.
1493. Receipt for Rent
When an agent has been duly authorized, a receipt from him for any subsequent rent is a legal acquittance to the tenant, notwithstanding the landlord may have revoked the authority under which the agent acted, unless the landlord should have given the tenant due and proper notice thereof.
1494. Legal Tender
A tender of rent should be in the current coin of the kingdom. But a tender of Bank of England notes is good, even in cases of distress.
