1. Subject to the provisions of these Rules, the claimant may
   join in the same action several causes of action; but if it
   appears that they cannot be conveniently tried or disposed
   of together the Court may order separate trials of such
   causes of action or may make such order as may be
   necessary or expedient for their separate disposal.

2. (1) An action for recovery of land may be joined with an
   action for declaration of title, mesne profit, arrears of rent
   or damages for breach of any contract under which the land
   or any part of it is held, or for any wrong or injury to the
   premises.
   (2) An action for foreclosure or redemption may be joined
   with a claim for delivery of possession of the mortgaged
   property and a claim for payment of principal money or
   interest secured by or any other relief on the mortgage or
   charge on such land.

3. Claims by or against an executor or administrator as such
   may be joined with claims by or against him personally if
   such claims are alleged to arise with reference to the estate
   over which the claimant or defendant sues or is sued as
   executor or administrator.
4. Claims by joint claimants may be joined with claims by
   them or any of them separately against the same
   defendant.
