Chat tels. The word amoug the Normans primarily signified only beasts of husbandry, or, as they are still called, “cattle,” but, in a secondary sense, the term was applied to all movabies in general, and not only to these, but to whatever was not a fief or feud. Wharton, Catalla juste possessa amitti non possunt. Chattels justly possessed cannot be lost, Jenk. Cent. 28.
