Piggott, J. - This is an appeal by the plaintiff in a suit for ejectment. The defendant is occupying a house, situated on land which admittedly belongs to the plaintiff, as zemindar of one of the two mahals in the village Amka. The plaintiff's case was that the defendant had entered into occupation of this house by his permission some seven or eight years before the date of suit and that his possession was always that of a licensee under a license liable to revocation at any moment. The suit for ejectment was brought on the allegation that such license had been revoked. The lower Appellate Court has found that the plaintiff has failed to prove the principal allegations of fact on which his claim is based.
