so_o you_o can_v imagine_v that_o the_o duke_n be_v at_o all_o surprise_v therein_o but_o that_o when_o it_o be_v execute_v it_o be_v according_a to_o that_o design_n and_o purpose_n next_o sir_n thomas_n stringer_n who_o be_v the_o duke_n counsel_n to_o peruse_v and_o amend_v the_o draught_n as_o appear_v by_o his_o own_o hand_n swear_v by_o his_o son_n and_o his_o man._n to_o imagine_v

particular_o to_o advise_v with_o be_v by_o at_o the_o execution_n and_o a_o witness_n to_o it_o be_v to_o say_v a_o man_n be_v surprise_v when_o he_o have_v the_o advice_n of_o counsel_n about_o it_o and_o they_o be_v at_o his_o elbow_n at_o the_o execute_n of_o it_o now_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o be_o to_o seek_v and_o do_v not_o well_o know_v what_o be_v a_o fraud_n in_o equity_n that_o shall_v avoid_v a_o deed_n which_o be_v a_o good_a deed_n at_o law_n the_o case_n of_o bodmin_n and_o wynne_n and_o roberts_n mention_v by_o my_o lord_n chief_a justice_n and_o my_o bother_n powell_n that_o speak_v the_o last_o day_n this_o cause_n come_v on_o be_v i_o think_v a_o case_n of_o great_a authority_n in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n because_o it_o have_v a_o great_a transaction_n both_o in_o this_o court_n and_o in_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n before_o it_o come_v to_o a_o resolution_n and_o result_n i_o shall_v put_v the_o case_n in_o short_a as_o it_o be_v here_o in_o court_n mr._n roberts_n son_n to_o the_o late_a earl_n of_o radnor_n marry_v the_o daughter_n of_o mr._n bodmin_n bodmin_n have_v make_v a_o will_n and_o give_v his_o land_n to_o the_o child_n of_o his_o daughter_n

most_o plain_o appear_v in_o the_o deposition_n of_o this_o case_n that_o this_o will_n be_v obtain_v by_o great_a fraud_n and_o circumvention_n that_o be_v wynne_n get_v into_o his_o acquaintance_n by_o pretence_n of_o some_o little_a office_n of_o friendship_n and_o kindness_n he_o get_v he_o away_o from_o his_o friend_n and_o relation_n and_o during_o his_o sickness_n he_o do_v by_o false_a story_n withdraw_v his_o affection_n from_o his_o daughter_n keep_v he_o in_o secret_a place_n that_o no_o friend_n may_v come_v at_o he_o and_o while_o he_o be_v so_o secrete_v and_o wrought_v upon_o be_v this_o last_o will_n make_v whereby_o he_o give_v his_o estate_n away_o from_o his_o child_n to_o a_o stranger_n all_o these_o piece_n of_o practice_n be_v apparent_a before_o the_o court_n at_o the_o hear_n of_o this_o cause_n which_o be_v hear_v by_o my_o lord_n clarendon_n assist_v by_o who_o all_o unanimous_o declare_v that_o this_o be_v a_o will_n obtain_v by_o fraud_n and_o by_o practice_n and_o that_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n if_o they_o can_v to_o relieve_v against_o it_o but_o they_o search_v precedent_n and_o can_v find_v none_o that_o will_v come_v up_o to_o the_o case_n thereupon_o for_o difficulty_n there_o be_v advice_n take_v about_o it_o in_o the_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o there_o upon_o consideration_n be_v a_o order_n make_v by_o way_n of_o advice_n to_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n that_o he_o shall_v proceed_v to_o do_v justice_n to_o either_o party_n though_o there_o be_v no_o precedent_n find_v to_o govern_v the_o judgement_n afterward_o this_o cause_n come_v to_o be_v hear_v again_o 12_o june_n 1666_o when_o my_o lord_n chancellor_n be_v assist_v by_o my_o lord_n chief_a justice_n bridgman_n my_o lord_n chief_a baron_n hales_n and_o mr._n

of_o the_o heir_n at_o law_n who_o have_v never_o offend_v or_o give_v he_o any_o cause_n to_o disinherit_v she_o so_o the_o will_n be_v dismiss_v but_o the_o party_n complain_v in_o parliament_n be_v

find_v none_o this_o be_v so_o great_a a_o authority_n and_o do_v show_v the_o wariness_n of_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n that_o i_o think_v none_o can_v be_v great_a equity_n will_v not_o relieve_v

and_o you_o may_v be_v surprise_v into_o the_o do_n of_o it_o pray_v will_v you_o make_v a_o more_o solemn_a settlement_n to_o confirm_v this_o kindness_n by_o a_o deed_n and_o have_v prevail_v to_o

will_v put_v the_o case_n upon_o a_o like_a bottom_n of_o presumption_n the_o other_o way_n and_o then_o see_v what_o we_o shall_v make_v of_o it_o duke_n george_n prevail_v with_o king_n charles_n

that_o the_o duke_n call_v he_o cousin_n now_o after_o all_o this_o that_o the_o duke_n shall_v make_v this_o last_o will_n and_o give_v all_o this_o estate_n to_o a_o stranger_n for_o so_o as_o to_o

this_o i_o think_v be_v a_o very_a unaccountable_a thing_n and_o i_o confess_v i_o know_v not_o how_o to_o extricate_v myself_o out_o of_o the_o confusion_n it_o cause_v in_o i_o but_o i_o must_v set_v the_o one_o against_o the_o other_o as_o to_o that_o objection_n and_o leave_v the_o matter_n in_o the_o dark_a as_o to_o the_o duke_n honour_n as_o i_o find_v it_o though_o i_o think_v i_o may_v give_v a_o further_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n under_o the_o second_o head_n but_o i_o must_v speak_v something_o more_o under_o this_o for_o i_o will_v omit_v nothing_o that_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v material_a in_o the_o case_n there_o be_v another_o thing_n object_v that_o seem_v dark_a in_o this_o case_n and_o that_o be_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o some_o parchment_n that_o be_v ingross_v by_o thompson_n the_o summer_n before_o the_o duke_n go_v to_o jamaica_n the_o jury_n have_v find_v that_o this_o deed_n be_v execute_v in_o 81._o and_o if_o than_o the_o other_o side_n will_v make_v use_n of_o this_o as_o insinuate_v that_o they_o be_v the_o same_o deed_n then_o that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v as_o be_v express_o against_o the_o verdict_n but_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v that_o these_o deed_n in_o 87._o be_v make_v upon_o some_o design_n to_o have_v they_o execute_v then_o perhaps_o to_o settle_v the_o estate_n upon_o a_o firm_a foot_n than_o it_o be_v think_v before_o the_o earl_n of_o bath_n perhaps_o may_v be_v jealous_a that_o the_o duchess_n may_v prevail_v upon_o the_o duke_n to_o revoke_v the_o former_a deed_n in_o due_a form_n and_o therefore_o these_o deed_n may_v be_v prepare_v absolute_o without_o any_o power_n of_o revocation_n and_o think_v he_o may_v procure_v the_o duke_n to_o seal_v they_o so_o before_o he_o go_v to_o jamaica_n i_o say_v that_o may_v be_v the_o intention_n though_o what_o be_v the_o design_n i_o can_v real_o tell_v but_o admit_v that_o such_o write_n be_v prepare_v with_o such_o a_o design_n to_o get_v the_o duke_n to_o execute_v they_o i_o know_v not_o that_o all_o this_o put_v together_o will_v be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n in_o equity_n to_o set_v aside_o the_o deed_n of_o 81._o for_o all_o design_n in_o gain_v of_o deed_n will_v not_o avoid_v deed_n actual_o make_v and_o that_o be_v plain_a from_o the_o case_n of_o bodmin_n and_o roberts_n that_o be_v one_o of_o the_o precedent_n

to_o come_v hither_o for_o relief_n against_o it_o and_o as_o this_o deed_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v to_o be_v a_o good_a deed_n so_o in_o this_o debate_n all_o those_o circumstance_n that_o appear_v

that_o claim_v by_o the_o will_n of_o 87_o and_o whether_o upon_o that_o account_n there_o can_v be_v any_o equity_n raise_v in_o this_o cause_n and_o four_o i_o shall_v consider_v the_o person_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o albemarle_n and_o the_o particular_a circumstance_n he_o be_v under_o at_o the_o time_n of_o make_v this_o will_n in_o 87_o and_o whether_o by_o reason_n of_o he_o from_o who_o the_o

upon_o the_o frame_n and_o manner_n of_o this_o deed_n there_o be_v any_o ground_n of_o equity_n for_o the_o plaintiff_n against_o it_o there_o be_v several_a thing_n under_o this_o head_n that_o be_v insist_v upon_o by_o the_o counsel_n for_o the_o plaintiff_n as_o first_o that_o this_o deed_n of_o 81_o do_v partake_v of_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o will_v because_o it_o recite_v a_o will_n and_o it_o be_v make_v to_o confirm_v a_o will_n and_o therefore_o shall_v be_v revocable_a in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n as_o a_o will_n shall_v be_v in_o a_o court_n of_o law_n second_o that_o it_o pretend_v to_o recite_v the_o will_n of_o 75_o and_o there_o be_v several_a mistake_v in_o the_o recital_n and_o very_o great_a variation_n from_o it_o three_o that_o there_o be_v several_a disposition_n different_a from_o those_o in_o the_o will_n which_o it_o pretend_v to_o confirm_v now_o for_o the_o first_o to_o maintain_v that_o when_o a_o deed_n recite_v a_o will_n and_o do_v say_v itself_o be_v make_v to_o confirm_v that_o will_n therefore_o this_o deed_n shall_v be_v revocable_a in_o its_o nature_n in_o equity_n as_o a_o will_n be_v at_o law_n i_o must_v needs_o say_v be_v a_o motion_n that_o i_o never_o hear_v start_v before_o i_o must_v confess_v i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v with_o the_o proceed_n and_o practice_n in_o court_n of_o equity_n that_o may_v make_v it_o so_o strange_a to_o i_o it_o have_v be_v labour_v with_o no_o small_a apprehend_v clearness_n at_o the_o bar._n therefore_o for_o that_o i_o
to_o that_o other_o beside_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v as_o i_o remember_v for_o it_o be_v some_o time_n since_o this_o cause_n be_v hear_v that_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n do_v know_v to_o what_o purpose_n the_o duke_n do_v call_v for_o his_o will_n and_o that_o the_o deed_n and_o will_n be_v both_o in_o the_o custody_n of_o the_o duke_n for_o though_o at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o deed_n it_o be_v deliver_v to_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n yet_o that_o be_v only_o for_o the_o due_a execution_n as_o a_o deed_n for_o my_o lord_n in_o his_o answer_n say_v he_o know_v not_o where_o it_o be_v afterward_o till_o deliver_v to_o he_o by_o the_o duke_n with_o the_o will_n under_o one_o cover_v some_o short_a time_n before_o he_o go_v abroad_o and_o so_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o induce_v the_o belief_n that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o duke_n be_v own_o custody_n then_o as_o to_o the_o objection_n of_o secrecy_n it_o be_v keep_v secret_a all-along_a and_o no_o body_n can_v give_v any_o account_n of_o this_o deed._n take_v it_o for_o grant_v it_o be_v so_o shall_v a_o settlement_n in_o a_o family_n where_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n require_v secrecy_n because_o it_o be_v keep_v secret_a be_v set_v aside_o in_o equity_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v keep_v secret_a and_o that_o be_v no_o objection_n at_o all_o person_n do_v not_o usual_o intend_v that_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v know_v how_o their_o estate_n be_v settle_v but_o say_v you_o at_o least_o here_o be_v a_o general_a presumption_n take_v all_o together_o upon_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o whole_a case_n that_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o management_n in_o conceal_v of_o this_o deed._n now_o in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n shall_v presumption_n be_v sufficient_a to_o found_v a_o decree_n upon_o if_o that_o shall_v avail_v in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n according_a to_o the_o judge_n faith_n to_o presume_v a_o man_n out_o of_o his_o estate_n there_o be_v presumption_n of_o several_a sort_n some_o be_v violent_a and_o some_o probable_a a_o violent_a presumption_n that_o such_o a_o man_n have_v do_v such_o a_o fact_n must_v be_v when_o a_o fact_n be_v do_v and_o no_o other_o can_v be_v think_v of_o to_o have_v do_v it_o as_o if_o a_o man_n be_v kill_v in_o a_o room_n and_o another_o man_n come_v out_o of_o the_o room_n with_o a_o

as_o to_o the_o consideration_n i_o think_v have_v no_o ground_n in_o reason_n there_o be_v as_o much_o equity_n for_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o it_o be_v perfect_o at_o large_a and_o i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v a_o constant_a rule_n that_o where_o one_o party_n have_v more_o equity_n than_o the_o other_o the_o law_n must_v take_v place_n and_o that_o in_o this_o case_n be_v manifest_o for_o

of_o the_o power_n this_o be_v hold_v good_a in_o equity_n and_o all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n it_o shall_v because_o a_o man_n be_v oblige_v to_o provide_v for_o his_o young_a child_n and_o

the_o circumstance_n he_o be_v in_o the_o place_n where_o best_o of_o all_o throughout_o england_n he_o may_v have_v have_v three_o peer_n to_o be_v witness_n of_o it_o the_o will_n be_v execute_v in_o london_n at_o sir_n robert_n clayton_n house_n and_o there_o be_v then_o two_o peer_n in_o the_o house_n therefore_o since_o he_o have_v a_o opportunity_n to_o have_v do_v it_o well_o and_o will_v not_o do_v it_o this_o can_v never_o be_v construe_v a_o good_a revocation_n in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n and_o i_o think_v true_o that_o any_o such_o construction_n will_v induce_v many_o absurdity_n for_o first_o it_o be_v to_o set_v up_o a_o power_n in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n in_o direct_a opposition_n to_o the_o court_n of_o law_n and_o so_o let_v a_o man_n loose_a in_o equity_n for_o no_o other_o reason_n but_o because_o he_o have_v restrain_v himself_o at_o law_n by_o a_o law_n of_o his_o own_o make_n second_o it_o be_v as_o much_o as_o to_o say_v that_o because_o a_o man_n my_o dispose_n of_o his_o estate_n one_o way_n by_o law_n therefore_o in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n he_o shall_v dispose_v of_o his_o estate_n any_o way_n that_o be_v a_o very_a strange_a but_o a_o true_a consequence_n of_o this_o doctrine_n because_o a_o man_n settle_v his_o estate_n such_o a_o way_n with_o such_o a_o power_n to_o alter_v it_o in_o such_o circumstance_n therefore_o he_o shall_v do_v it_o any_o way_n at_o this_o rate_n tenant_n in_o taile_n may_v dispose_v of_o his_o estate_n without_o a_o fine_a in_o equity_n because_o he_o may_v have_v do_v it_o at_o law_n with_o a_o fine_a for_o the_o same_o equity_n there_o be_v in_o both_o case_n so_o a_o copyholder_n of_o inheritance_n may_v in_o equity_n dispose_v of_o his_o estate_n without_o a_o surrender_n because_o he_o may_v do_v it_o at_o law_n by_o a_o surrender_n three_o it_o be_v to_o enable_v a_o man_n to_o give_v away_o more_o than_o he_o have_v in_o he_o for_o he_o have_v no_o more_o in_o he_o than_o what_o be_v according_a to_o the_o power_n he_o reserve_v to_o himself_o and_o four_o it_o be_v to_o frustrate_v the_o intent_n and_o design_n of_o all_o settlement_n whatsoever_o so_o that_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o reason_n at_o all_o for_o this_o court_n to_o let_v a_o man_n loose_v that_o have_v thus_o restrain_v himself_o unless_o there_o be_v some_o special_a reason_n in_o the_o particular_a case_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o which_o a_o man_n ought_v to_o have_v his_o case_n vary_v from_o the_o ordinary_a rule_n then_o let_v we_o consider_v next_o the_o circumstance_n that_o the_o duke_n be_v under_o at_o the_o time_n of_o make_v this_o will_n you_o that_o be_v for_o the_o plaintiff_n say_v that_o he_o have_v forget_v this_o deed_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v a_o old_a and_o forget_a deed_n it_o shall_v not_o have_v any_o regard_n in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n it_o not_o be_v take_v any_o notice_n of_o by_o the_o party_n himself_o first_o i_o pray_v consider_v whether_o the_o

of_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n it_o do_v plain_o appear_v there_o be_v a_o most_o particular_a friendship_n and_o mutual_a confidence_n between_o they_o in_o matter_n of_o the_o high_a nature_n and_o
