leased
Etymology
verb
-
simple past and past participle of lease
adj
-
Transferred under the terms of a lease. The resemblance borne by such a land carriage to a ship put under charter-party is, perhaps, closer where the entire business of one railway company, with its tracks, rolling-stock, equipments, and goodwill become leased for a certain term to another company. 1880, James Schouler, A Treatise on the Law of Bailments, Little, Brown, page 327
