Section 13 of Evidence Act "Facts relevant when right
or custom is in question"
Where the question is as to the existence of any right or
custom, the following facts are relevant.
(a) Any transaction by which the right or custom in question
was created, claimed, modified, recognized, asserted, or
denied, or which was inconsistent with its existence;

was disputed, asserted or departed from.
Illustration
The question is, whether A has a right to a fishery. A deed
conferring the fishery on A's ancestors, a mortgage of the
fishery by A's father, a subsequent grant of the fishery by
A's father, irreconcilable with the mortgage, instances in
which A's father exercised the right, or in which the
exercise of the right was stopped by A's neighbors, are
relevant facts.
