   {Cattle}.] (Law)
   Any item of movable or immovable property except the
   freehold, or the things which are parcel of it. It is a more
   extensive term than goods or effects.

         movable, as goods, plate, money; real are such rights
         in land as are less than a freehold, as leases,
         mortgages, growing corn, etc.

      distinguished from one on real property.
