before_o his_o own_o time_n and_o if_o you_o consider_v the_o time_n of_o that_o answer_n there_o be_v near_o fourscore_o year_n then_o past_a since_o the_o lease_n make_v and_o so_o long_o it_o have_v be_v out_o of_o the_o family_n render_v a_o pepper-corn_n rent_n and_o so_o the_o profitable_a interest_n be_v only_o the_o four_o acre_n surrender_v to_o he_o by_o the_o tenant_n before_o the_o licence_n to_o alien_n and_o it_o appear_v not_o that_o he_o have_v any_o notice_n of_o the_o reversion_n but_o i_o observe_v in_o the_o answer_n there_o be_v one_o passage_n remarkable_a that_o there_o be_v a_o way_n time_n out_o of_o mind_n that_o do_v part_v his_o land_n and_o that_o which_o be_v repute_v the_o dean_n and_o chapter_n land_n now_o that_o do_v not_o tie_v it_o up_o to_o

that_o i_o take_v it_o that_o be_v no_o conclusion_n upon_o we_o nor_o upon_o the_o same_o ground_n be_v that_o lease_n make_v 13_o jacobi_fw-la by_o john_n stepkins_n where_o he_o abutt_n his_o
