1. A fixture ls a personal chattel substantially affixed to the land, hut which may afterwards be lawfully removed therefrom by the party affixing it, or his representative, without the consent of the owner of the freehold. Cook’v. whiting, 16 111 480; Teaff v. Hewitt, 1 Qhio St. 511, 59
Anything of an accessory character annexed to houses and
lands, so as to constitute a part of them. This term is, however, quite
frequently used in the peculiar sense of personal chattels annexed to
lands and tenements, but removable by the person annexing them, or his
personal representatives. In this latter sense, the same things may be
fixtures under some circumstances, and not fixtures under others.
That which is fixed or attached to something as a
permanent appendage; as, the fixtures of a pump; the fixtures of a farm
or of a dwelling, that is, the articles which a tenant may not take
away.
