2. They are usually divided into two sorts, heriot service, and heriot
custom; the former are such as are due upon a special reservation in the
grant or lease of lands, and therefore amount to little more than a mere

merely upon immemorial usage and custom. These are defined to be a customary
tribute of goods and chattels, payable to the lord of the fee, on the
decease of the owner of the land. 2 Bl. Com. 422. Vide Com. Dig. Copyhold, K
18; Bac. Ab. h.t.; 2 Saund. Index, h.t.; 1 Vern. 441.
