in_o hand_n that_o be_v who_o must_v make_v the_o letter_n of_o attorney_n on_o the_o feoffee_n part_n whether_o the_o lessee_n for_o year_n or_o he_o in_o the_o remainder_n or_o both_o of_o they_o for_o lessee_n for_o year_n it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o his_o estate_n have_v not_o any_o perfection_n thereby_o and_o he_o seem_v himself_o but_o a_o deputy_n and_o if_o so_o than_o a_o deputy_n can_v make_v a_o deputy_n but_o yet_o he_o be_v not_o mere_o a_o deputy_n for_o if_o there_o be_v two_o lessee_n the_o remainder_n in_o fee_n to_o i._n s._n one_o of_o the_o lessee_n may_v take_v the_o livery_n and_o seisin_n yet_o if_o a_o letter_n of_o attorney_n be_v make_v to_o two_o joint_o one_o of_o they_o can_v take_v it_o and_o if_o in_o our_o case_n the_o lessee_n have_v dye_v before_o entry_n the_o livery_n may_v have_v be_v make_v to_o his_o executor_n and_o power_n and_o authority_n can_v be_v apportion_v and_o come_v to_o executor_n in_o such_o manner_n ergo_fw-la it_o be_v more_o than_o a_o power_n of_o a_o letter_n of_o attorney_n for_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a and_o for_o these_o ensue_a for_o the_o lessee_n for_o year_n can_v be_v prohibit_v from_o take_v his_o livery_n by_o the_o lessor_n but_o a_o letter_n of_o attorney_n may_v be_v countermand_v yet_o the_o lessee_n alone_o can_v make_v this_o letter_n of_o attorney_n neither_o can_v he_o in_o the_o remainder_n make_v the_o same_o because_o he_o can_v not_o himself_o accept_v of_o the_o present_a livery_n neither_o can_v he_o meddle_v with_o the_o present_a possession_n which_o a_o livery_n and_o scisin_n yield_v but_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o lessee_n for_o year_n and_o he_o in_o remainder_n must_v join_v in_o the_o letter_n of_o attorney_n for_o these_o reason_n first_o they_o be_v both_o one_o party_n to_o the_o deed_n so_o ought_v they_o to_o be_v to_o the_o letter_n of_o attorney_n which_o be_v to_o give_v life_n thereunto_o second_o they_o be_v but_o in_o law_n one_o tenant_n three_o they_o shall_v join_v in_o advoury_a and_o in_o many_o case_n the_o lessee_n shall_v have_v aid_n of_o he_o in_o remainder_n for_o the_o privity_n between_o their_o estate_n and_o although_o the_o lessee_n get_v no_o estate_n by_o the_o livery_n yet_o he_o assist_v himself_o thereby_o with_o the_o aid_n and_o strength_n of_o he_o in_o the_o remainder_n and_o the_o livery_n go_v through_o his_o estate_n and_o so_o pass_v into_o the_o remainder_n therefore_o my_o conclusion_n be_v that_o they_o shall_v join_v in_o this_o letter_n of_o attorney_n and_o hereby_o i_o suppose_v i_o have_v convey_v a_o good_a estate_n in_o the_o manner_n to_o i._o s._n in_o the_o remainder_n to_o maintain_v my_o position_n for_o he_o in_o the_o end_n of_o my_o case_n and_o here_o i_o end_v
