there were certain responsibilities or "duties" that came with receiving a free plot of land from the seigneur. firstly, habitants were expected to cultivate and live on the land. if a piece of land was not cultivated within a year, the seigneur had the "droit de réunion," meaning the right of repossession. secondly, there were several dues that habitants had to pay to the seigneur. one due was the "cens", which ranged between 2 and 6 sols. this charge was mostly symbolic, since it was a fairly paltry sum. rent was typically set at an annual rate of 20 sols for every "arpent" of land. seigneurs also received "lods et ventes" if habitants sold their land, which was equivalent to one-twelfth of the sale price. another duty of habitants was to grind wheat at the seigneurial mill and pay a fee of one-fourteenth of the wheat ground. some habitants also owed the seigneur one-thirteenth of the total amount of fish they caught. in addition, some habitants were responsible for completing 1–4 days of mandatory work during the sowing, harvesting, or haying season, which were called "corvées". habitants were expected to fulfill all of these obligations to repay the seigneur for granting them land in the first place.
