P. c. 73. f. 150 151. The choice of these Apprentices are to be out of the poorest sort of Children whose Parents are the least able to relieve them and they are to be above 7 and under 15 years of Age when they are first bound 7 Jac. c. 3. Wingates Stat. Tit. Poor People And these Officers are to have the consent of two Justices of the Peace in the placing out of such Apprentices and they may bind the Man-child till 24 years of Age and the Woman chiââ till 21 years of Age or till she be married whââ shall first happen And these Apprentices mââ be bound to Weavers Masons Dyers Fullen ââ any other Trade as well as to Husbandry ââ Housewifery See 43 El. c. 2. Dalt J. P. c. 73. f. 14â Wingates Stat. Tit. Poor People Now this placing of Apprentices may be â any Man whom the Officers and Justices thinkâ to receive them within the same Parish or elsâwhere in other Parishes within the same Hââdred either with or without Mony therefoââ it is fit in this case to consider if the Child ââ young and the Party to whom they place it iâ not very able then they may give Mony if theâ please as the Party and they shall agree ââ Judges 1633. Quest 1. All Men that-have or may have use for Servants as Knights Clergy-men Gentlemen aââ Yeomen as well as Tradesmen are bound to taââ Apprentices yea though wealthy Men Tabââ themselves or live so privately that they havenâ use for a Servant yet they may be compelled ââ take them or else to pay a Sum of Mony for putting them Apprentices elsewhere and if they refuse to pay the Sum imposed upon them twâ Justices of the Peace may make their Warraââ to levy the same by distress and sale of the Offenders Goods Res Judges 1633.

Or the Refusers to take Apprentices may be presented and indicted for the same upon the Stat. 43 El. c. 2. at the Assizes or Sessions of the Peace Dalt J. P. c. 73. f. ibid. Res Judges 1633 Quest 7.

Quest 2. Dalt J. P. c. 73. f. 151. If the Parents of poor Children shall refuse to let their Children be put forth Apprentices without good cause shewed such Parents may be bound over by the Justices to answer their said Default and if the Children shall refuse the Justices may send them to the House of Correction there to remain till they be content to be bound and serve Dalt J. P. c. 73. 58. f. 153. 119. Note That this binding must be by Indenture and may not well be done by a verbal Agreement and the Indenture must be either between the Justices Churchwardens and Overseers or them and the Apprentice on the one part and him that takes the Apprentice of the other part as appears by the Form of the Indenture in the end of this Chapter and he must be named by the Name of Apprentice expresly or else he is no Apprentice though he be bound Cromp. 184. Dalt J. P. c. 5. f. 120. And this binding is as effectual to all purposes as if the Children were of full Age and did bind themselves by Indentures and Covenants and all such as are bound by the Overseers as abovesaid may safely be received and kept â Apprentices by their Masters 1 Jac. c. 25. ââ Jac. c. 28.

Wingates Stat. Tit. Poor People The Party taking any Mony with suâh Apprentice shall give good Security by Obligatioâ to repay it at the end of seven years next ensuing the date of the said Obligation or withiâ the three months after the end of the said seveâ years and if such Apprentice shall die withiâ seven years then within one year after his or her death and if the Master Mistress or Dame happen to die within the seven years then withiâ one year after their death so as the Mony may be employed in placing the Apprentice with some other of the same Trade to serve out his time at the discretion of the Parties trusted as aforesaid 7 Jac. c. 3. And the Mony so given shall be imployed within three months after the Receipt thereof and if there shall not be apt Persons found in the places where it is given to the Apprentices it shall then be imployed in the Parishes next adjoyning by the Parties that are trusted with it in the place where it was so given and there also Bond shall be taken as afore is
