reason appears that the nature of the Lapse is to be taken hac vice and the King must take it then or not at all and where it is objected that by this means every Lapse may be taken from the King I conceive that far greater inconvenience will be to the Patrons on the other side for when a Lapse is devolded to the King and a stranger presents if then the true Patron may not present untill the death of such Incumbent perhaps the Incumbent will resign or be deprived and a stranger shall be presented again and again in like manner and so by this means the Patron shall never continue his advowson for by the Couin between the stranger and the neglect of the King to take his Lapse the Inc●mbent shall never die And afterwards in this term it was adjudged that such usurpation shall not take away the Lapse from the King because the avoydance accrued by the act of the Incumbent Cook ib. 7.27 a. Hillary 29 Eliz. Lassell's Case LAssell brought an action of debt upon an obligation the Defendant pleads that the condition was that he should personally appear before the Iustices and set forth how he was taken by a Latitat by the Plaintiff who was Shiriff who took this obligation upon his deliverance and urged the Statute of 23 H. 6. and said that the obligation was not according to the Statute And by the Opinion of three Iustices Anderson being absent If it were in such an action wherein a man may appear by Atturney then it is void And the Plaintiff shewed a Iudgment given in the Kings Bench wherein in such case Iudgment was given for the Sheriffs and it was between Seekford and Cutts 27. 28. Eliz. Rot. 373. And the next Terme it was moved again Anderson The Obligation is voyd for when an express form is limited by the Statute no variance ought to be from it But the other three Iustices were against him for they held that he ought to appear in his proper person in case of a Latitat Anderson I deny that for Latitats have not been of above 60 years continuance Vid. Cook lib. 10. Beufages Case and his first Institutes 225. a. Pasch 25 Eliz. Kayre against Deurat in C. B. Rot. 603. IN a Waste the Plaintiff declared how the Defendant was seized in Fee and made a Feoffment to the use of himself for life the remainder to the Plaintiff in Fee after which he committed waste The Tenant said that he was seized in Fee without that he made a Feoffment as the Plaintiff declared and upon issue joyned it was found that the Defendant was seized in Fee and that he made a Feoffment to the use of himself for life of J.S. without impeachment of waste the remainder ut supra and whether this was the Feoffment which the Plaintiff alledged they prayed the advice of the Court. Anderson Chief Justice If the impeachment of waste be not part of their issue then the Verdict is voyd for that point and that which is found more than their issue is voyd 33 H. 6. the Defendant pleaded that he was not Tenant of the Free-hold and the Iury found that he held joyntly with another there the Plaintiff shall recover And then at another day it was said by the Iustices that the Iury had found such an estate as was alledged by the Plaintiff and although that they further found this priviledge to be dispunisht of waste which upon the matter proves that the Plaintiff hath no cause of action yet because the Tenant may choose whether he would take hold of this priviledge or not the Iury cannot finde a thing that is out of their Verdict and whereof the Defendant will not take advantage by pleading and for this cause their Verdict was voyd 7 H. 6.33 21 H. 7.12 where one pleaded in Bar a Feoffment and traversed the Feoffment and hereupon they were at issue and the Iury found that he had enfeoffed the Tenant after the Fine levyed to the Plaintiff this cannot be found because it is out of their issue 31 Assi 12. and Iudgement was given for the Demandant Hillar 29 Eliz. Michell against Donton in C. B. Rot 639. IN an Ejectment a man makes a Lease rendring Rent with a Covenant that the Lessee shall repair the houses with other Covenants and Conditions of re-entry for not performance and then he devised the same land to the same Lessee for divers years after the first years expired yielding the same Rent and under the same Covenants as in the former Lease and he devised the remainder in fee to the Plaintiff and the first Lease expires and the Defendant being possest by force of his second Lease doth not repair the houses and if the Plaintiff might enter was the question Shuttleworth In as much as he devised the land under the same Covenants as the first Lease was and the first was with Covenants and Conditions the second shall be so also the rather because he deviseth the remainder over so that the Devisee cannot take advantage of the Covenants but of the Conditions he may and the second Lease is conditional But the whole Court was against him Shuttleworth To what purpose then are these words in the Devise Under the same Covenants Periam They shall be voyd And by all the Iustices the intent of the Will was not that the Lease should be conditional for Covenants and Conditions differ much for the one gives an action but not the other but the intent was that he should perform the Covenants upon pain to render damages in a Writ of Covenant Bottenham against Herlakenden 29 30 Eliz. in C. B. Rot. 1620. HErlakenden was seized of land and devised the same to the Plaintiff for years the remainder to his wife for life Proviso that the Plaintiff should pay to the woman 20 l. per annum and if he failed of his payment c. wherefore the woman entred and if this shall be called reservation or reversion was the question Anderson A man cannot make a Reservation on a Devise Periam A man may to himself and his heirs but not to a stranger Anderson Every Devisee is in in the sier by the Devisor and why shall not this then be a reservation to the Devisor and a grant of the reversion to the woman Gawdy Wherefore cannot a man devise land reserving rent when by the Statute 32 H. 8. he may devise at his pleasure Periam Because his pleasure must correspond with the Law Anderson If I devise land to another reserving rent to me and my heirs and then devise the reversion he shall have the rent as incident to the reversion and the Iudges were divided wherefore c. 29 Eliz. Glover against Pipe in B. R. Rot. 838. IN debt upon a Bond the Condition was that where Glover the Plaintiff had a Copyhold of inheritance and had leased it to the Defendant if the Defendant should not commit any manner of waste and
this is voyd And after viz. 31 Eliz. It seemed to all the Iustices that the consideration was not good and therefore the contract voyd But if goods he delivered to an Infant to be re-delivered if Afterwards his Executor assumeth to re-deliver them this is good Gawdy in the 13 H. 6. If a man be indebted in a simple Contract and dye and his Executors assume to pay the debt it is good but ●his seems to be contrary to the Law for it is contrary to that which hath been lately adjudged in the Common Pleas. And Egerton cited a Ca●e 10 H 6. where an Infant brought an Action of Trespass and submitted himself to an arbitrement this shall binde him at his full age and this was agreed by the Court but differs much from the Case at Bar for when an Infant commits a Trespass he is chargeable in an Action of Trespass and shall lose damages but it is not so here Wherefore Iudgement was given that the Plaintiff should be barred Mich. 30 Eliz. Stanton against Chamberlain Rot. IN an Action of Debt upon a Bond upon non est factum pleaded the Iury found that the Defendant sealed the Bond and cast it on the Table and the Plaintiff came and took up the Bond and carried it away without saying any thing and if this shall amount to a Delivery by the Defendant to the Plaintiff was the question And it was resolved by all the Iustices that if the Iury had found that he had sealed the Bond and cast it on the table towards the Plaintiff to the intent that the Plaintiff should take it as his Deed who took the Bond and went away that had been a good delivery or that the Plaintiff after the sealing and casting on the table had taken it by the commandment or consent of the Defendant but because it is found that the Defendant onely sealed it and cast it on the table and the Plaintiff took it and went away with it this is not a sufficient delivery for it may be that he sealed it to the intent to reserve it to himself untill other things were agreed and then if the Plaintiff take it and go away with it without the Defendants consent that will not make it the Descendants Deed. But it was said that it might be accounted to be the Defendants Deed because it is found that he sealed it and cast it on the table and the Plaintiff took it c. and it is not found that the Defendant said any thing and therefore because he did not say any thing it will amount to his consent Nam qui tacet consentire videtur But to this it was answered that it is not found that the Defendant was present when the Plaintiff took it and if the Defendant had sealed and cast the Bond on the Table when the Plaintiff was not there and then the Defendant went away and then the Plaintiff came and took it away then clearly it is not the Deed of the Defendant Hill 31 Eliz. Beron against Goodyne IN an Ejectment the Case was the King was seized of lands in Fee and a stranger intruded and the King grants this land to J. S. in Fee and the Intruder continues possession and dyes seized The question was if this descent shall take away the entry of I.S. Johnson It shall not for none will affirm that an Intruder shall gain any thing out of the King but that the land shall pass to the Patentee and the continuance of the Intruder in possession and his dying seized shall not take away the entry for he cannot be a Disseisor because he gained no estate at the beginning as if a Guardian continues possession after the heir is of full age he is no Disseisor nor shall gain any estate And 10 Ed. 3.2 where a tenant of the King dyes his heir within age and a stranger enters and after the heir is of full age dyes seized this shall not take away the entry of the heir Cook contr By his continuance of possession he shall be accounted a Disseisor and the Free-hold out of the Patentee for another estate he cannot have for tenant at sufferance be is not for he comes in at first by a title as in the 12 Assi The Dona's in Frank-marriage are divorced and the husband continues the possession and so where a Lessee continues possession after the death of the tenant for life these are tenants at sufferance and the Patentee hath a Free-hold in Law which is taken away by descent and denyed there was any such case as was vouched in the 10 Ed. 3. but compared the case to the 21 Ed. 3.2 where a Fine was levyed per conusans de droit come ceo c. if before the Conusee enters a stranger enters and dyes seized the entry of the Conusee is barr'd So is it where an Advowson is granted to J.S. and his heirs and a stranger usurps the Grantee hath no remedy And if a man deviseth land to J.S. and before he enters a stranger doth enter and dyes seized the entry of the Disseisee is taken away and so it is in our case But a further day was given Cook to shew cause why Iudgement should not be given against him Hillar 31 Eliz. Suttons Case in C. B. Rot. 533. IN an Ejectment the Iury gave a special Verdict that the Defendant nihil habens in terra did make a Lease thereof to the Plaintiff by Indenture according as the Plaintiff had declared and then the Defendant entred on the Plaintiff and whether this entry be good was the question Walmesley for the Defendant Iurors are sworn ad veritatem dicendum and therefore they shall not enquire of Estoppels because it is not in evidence But the whole Court was against him who held that the Iury might finde a matter that is not shewed in evidence for by Anderson in an Assize they may finde a Release although it be not given in evidence and he and Periam held that the Plaintiff ought to have Iudgement for that there was a good Lease between the parties and if Rent were reserved an Action of Debt would lye Windham contr For it is onely an Estoppell between the parties but the Court is at liberty and are not estopped when the truth appears to them and it is a Maxim in Law that he who hath nothing in the land cannot make a Lease and then the Plaintiff hath no cause of Action And afterwards viz. 32 Eliz. Anderson and Periam were expresly for the Plaintiff for whereas it hath been said that it was a Lease by Estoppell they held it was not so for that in Debt the Rent should be recovered And Anderson said If I levy a Fine of your land to you for years if you be put out I shall have an Assize but Windham was of opinion with Walmesley wherefore Periam said we will have the opinion of the other Iustices in the Exchequer Chamber wherefore c.

George Brooks Case in C. B. Rot. 1822. GIbson recovered in a Debt against Bro●k as Executor to J.S. 60 l. and 6 l. damages and upon a scire facias to the Sheriff he returns no Assets and then upon the estate which was in L●ndon which the Defendant had wasted and so●d a fieri fac●as was awarded to the Sheriff of L●…don with a Commission to the Sheriff of London to enquire if he had Assets at the day of the Writ c and by the inquest it was found that he had Assets at the day of the Writ purchased c. and that he had wasted the estate which was thus return'd by the Sheriff against which the Defendant took issue that he had not Assets and upon this was a a Demurr Walmesley A man may avert against the return of a Sheriff if the return be a matter collateral as if upon a Ca●ias the Sheriff returns a Rescous there may be an averment against this 4 Eliz. 212. a. But if it be in pursuance of the Writ as non est inventus there no averment shall be taken against this but here the return is the saying of the Inquest and not his own saying Warburton I conceive he shall have an averment and traverse or else he shall be without remedy for he cannot have an Action on the Case against the Sheriff because he returns that which was found by the Inquest and so not like where the Sheriff returns falsly without such Inquest and no attachment lyes because it is but an Inquest of office and after it was moved at another day and a president shewn 33 Eliz. in B. R. between Westner and Whitenore and there it was adjudged that such return of the Sheriff was traversable and Anderson and Kingsmill agreed to it wherefore Iudgement was given for the Defendant and that the issue was well taken Day against Fynn IN an Ejectment the Plaintiff declared of a Lease for years of a house and 30 acres of land in D. and that J. S. did let to him the said Messuage and 30 acres by the name of his house in B. and ten acres of land there sive plus sive minus it was moved in arrest of Iudgement because that 30 acres cannot pass by the name of 10 acres sive plus sive minus and so the Plaintiff hath not conveyed to him 30 acres for when 10 acres are leased to him sive plus sive minus these words ought to have a reasonable construction to pass a reasonable quantity either more or less and not twenty or thirty acres more Yelverton agreed for the word 10 acres sive plus sive minus ought to be intended of a reasonable quantity more or less by a quarter of an acre or two or three at the most but if it be 3 acres less than 10. the Lessee must be content with it Quod Fenner Crook concesserunt and Iudgement was staid Smith against Jones IN an Action of the Case upon an Assumpsit the Case was that the wise of Jones was Executrix to J.S. and had Assets to satisfie all Debts and Legacies The woman dyes and the goods remained in the hand of her husband who was the Defendant and Smith the Plaintiff being a Legatee demanded his debt of the husband who said to him Forbear t●ll Michaelmas and I will pay you and if this was sufficient cause of Action was the question on a Demurrer Davies The promise is voyd because it is after the death of the wife Yelverton The Action will lye because he hath the ●oods in his possession and therefore is chargeable and must answer for them and therefore there is a good consideration And he cited Godfreys Case who laid claim to a Copyhold and the Copyholder in possession said to him If the opinion of the Lord Cook be that Godfrey hath a good title to it I will surrender it to him and because he did not surrender to him Godfrey brought an Action on the Case and it was adjudged that the staying of the suit was a sufficient consideration to have an Action on the Case Yelverton If the promise had been to pay this Legacy in consideration he would not sue him then it had been good Williams If there be no cause of suit there is no assumpsit and here is no just cause for he cannot be sued for Legacies Flemming of the same opinion for the husband cannot be sued by the Plaintiff and although perhaps the Legatee may sue him in the spirituall Court yet that is only for the temporall administration And afterwards Iudgment was given for the Defendant Michaelm 9. Jacob. Kempe and James against Laurence in C. B. Rot. 3648. IN a scire facias the case was thus Gant having two daughters made his wife Executrix untill his daughters came to the age of 21. years or should be married and then the Executorship should cease and that then his daughters should be his Executors and the woman did recover a debt upon a bond made to the Testator after which the daughters marryed the Plaintiffs and they brought the scire facias upon the said Judgment against the Defendants as terre-tenants and the Sheriff return'd the Defendants terre-tenants and no others and upon Oyer of the scire facias the Defendants pleaded that H. was se●sed of those lands die Judicii reddit and made a Lease for years to them Iudgment c. Nichols The daughters shall have this judgment as Executors for they are in privity and in by the Testator and are not like an Administrator who comes in by the Ordinary after the death of the Executor 6 H. 8.7 Cook 5. Rep. Brudnells Case and the daughters are Executors and subject to debts of the Testator And as to the plea he said that forasmuch as the Defendants are returned terre-tenants they cannot plead that they are but tenants for years and that their Lessor is not warned for the scire facias is a personall action to have execution but of the goods but in a reall action it is a good plea because the lessor himself cannot plead in discharge of such action 8 H. 6.32 And note that Michaelm 43 44.

Butler against Archer IF two Ioyntenants be of land holden by Herriot service and one dies the other shall not pay Herriot service for there is no change of the tenant but the survivor continues tenant of the whole land But if a man seised of land in Fee makes a feofment to the use of himself and his wife and the heires of their two bodyes begotten the remainder to the right heires of the husband and the husband dyes a Herriot shall be paid for the ancient use of the reversion was never out of the husband Michaelm 29 30 Elizab. Stephens Case in C. B. IN an Ejectment the Case was Sir William Beale made a Lease by Indenture to William Pile and Philip his wife et primogenito proli Habendum to them and the longer liver of them successively during their lives and then the husband and wife had issue a daughter And it was holden by three of the Iustices that the daughter had no estate for that she was not in esse at the time of the grant Michaelm 30 31. Eliz. Lewin against Mandy in C. B. Rot. 2529. IN a Replevin the Defendant avowed for 20 l. Rent which was pleaded to be granted by Lovelace and Rutland by Fine to Stukeley and his heires who being seized thereof did recite that he with 7 others were Plaintiffs in a Writ of Covenant against Lovelace and Rutland upon which a Fine was levyed by which Fine the said Lovelace and Rutland amongst other things did grant a rent of 20 l. out of the Mannor of D. and other Lands to the said Stukely who granted it to Hoveden under whom the Defendant claymes in Taile The Question was if this were a good grant because there are many misrecitalls in the Indenture for whereas he recited that in the Writ of Covenant for the fine Lovelace and Rutland were Defendants in truth they were Plaintiffs and Stukely and the others Defendants and whereas he recited that the said grant was made to him it was made to him and his heires also he said that the said Rent Charge amongst other things was granted whereas nothing but the 20 l. Rent was granted and that only out of the Mannor of D. and not out of other Lands Anderson If a man recites that he hath a Rent of 10 l. of the grant of J.S. whereas he hath this of the grant of J.D. yet is the grant good And at last it was adjudged that the grant was good Note that Fenner at this time said that it had been resolved by Anderson and Gawdy and other Iustices very lately That if the Kings Tenant dies his heir within age yet the heir at full age before livery sued may bargain and sell by Deed inrolled or make a Lease for years and it is good but if he makes a feofment or leavie a fine ●ur conusance de droit come ceo c. this is voyd because it cannot be without intrusion upon the King Trinit 39 Eliz. Oldfeild against VVilmore in C. B Rot. 2715. IN Debt upon a Bond to performe the award of J.S. who did award that the Defendant should pay 10 l. or cause two strangers to be bound for the payment thereof the Defendant pleaded performance the Plaintiff replyed that he had not payed the money and the Defendant demurred Walmesley for the Plaintiff For although the award be in the disjunctive yet forasmuch as it is voyd as to one part now upon the matter it is single and on the non payment of the ten pound is forfeit 17 Ed. 4.5 Windham and Rhodes held that the Plaintiff should have pleaded so much of the award as was for it is a thing intire and the Law will adjudge that one is only to be done because the other is contrary to the Law Anderson and Peryam The plea is good for a man shall not be compelled to shew a voyd matter and although the Defendant had caused the two strangers to be bound the obligation is broken for as to this arbitrement it is meerely voyd and at another day the Plaintiff had judgment Goodridge against VVarburton IN an Ejectment The Iury gave a speciall verdict that Francis was seised of the land in Tayle and suffered a Recovery to the use of him and his heirs and afterwards did devise the same lands to his wife Margery untill his daughter Prudence came to the age of 19. years and then that Prudence should have the Land to her and the heirs of her body upon condition to pay twelve pound per annum to the said Margaret during her life in recompence of her dower and if she failed of payment then Margaret should enter and hold the Land during her life and afterwards it shall go to Prudence as before And after this John Francis the heire did reverse this recovery by a Writ of Errour and entred upon Margaret and she brought her Writ of Dower and was indowed of the third part and then she levyed a Fine of that third part to the said John Francis and he infeoft Tyndall who made the Lease to Goldsing and then Margaret marryed Warburton and Prudence came to the age of 19. years the Rent of twelve pound is not payd and Warburton and his wife entred and Goldsing brought this action VValmesley By the recovery of the third part in the Writ of Dower the Rent of twelve pound which was in recompence thereof is gone For at the Common Law if a woman recover in Dower she hath waived that which was assigned to her in lien of her Dower as in case of Dower ad ostium Ecclesiae and 10 Edw. 4. If the husband discontinues the Land of his wise and she brings a Writ of Dower she is concluded to have a Cui in vita Shuttleworth cont By this recovery the estate taile is revived yet as this case it is is not materiall for because he entred without a sult he is a Disseisor and that was agreed by all at the Bar and the Bench. And he cited 26 H. 8. 3d. 4th H. 7.11 And I conceive that the Dower will not conclude her of the twelve pound per annum for it is not a Rent and the title to have the Land for her Ioynture for non-payment the Rent was not in esse at the time of the recovery of her Dower but afterwards as if a Lease he made to a woman who marries the Lessor who dies within the terme and the wise enters this shall not conclude her Dower after the Lease is expired by the eleventh of H. 4. Also the twelve pound is not appointed to be issuing out of the Land and so it cannot be a Ioynture and therefore
Oathes and they who had eaten were fined five pounds and committed to the Fleet. And some of the Iustices did doubt if the Verdict were good and upon many Presidents had it was adjudged good and they relyed much on the President of the 12 H. 8. Rot. 102. where one of the Iury did eat before they were agreed and yet the Verdict was good And after a Writ of Error was brought and the Iudgment affirmed 20 H. 7.3 13 H 4.13 Pasch 27 Eliz. A Man gives land to I.S. in the Premisses Habendum to him and three others for their lives Et eorum diutius viventium successive The question was what Estate I.S. had and whether there be any occupancy in the case Coke h●ld that I.S. had but an Estate for his own life because he cannot have an Estate for his own and anothers life where the interest of both begin at one instant and the Habendum by no means can make a Remainder as if a Lease be made to one for life habendum to him and his first begotten Son this makes no remainder to the Son although some have held to the contrary so of a Lease to one for years habendum to him and another does not make any remainder to the other also the word Successive will not make a remainder as in the 30 H 8. Br. Joynt-tenant 53. Also one cannot have an Estate for life and for anothers life also in present interest for the greater doth drowne the lesse but if the greater be present and the other future as a Lease to him for life the remainder to him for anothers life or a Lease for life and three years over this is good but if a Lease be made for life and for years the Lease for years is drowned 19 Ed. 3. Surrender 8. where Tenant for life of a Mannor did surrender to him in the Reversion c. Gawdy If a Lease be made to one for life and so long as another shall live quaere what Estate he hath And as to the second point certainly there cannot be an Occupancy for if the Estate be void the Limitation is void also the Occupancy is pleaded Que un tiel and does not say Claymant comme occupant c. for if a man comes a hawking on Land he is not an Occupant and the Book of Entries is that he ought to plead it Clinch Iustice every Occupant ought to be in possession at the time of the death of the Tenant for otherwise the Law casts the Interest upon him in the Reversion But Gawdy and Chute denied this and after viz. 29 Eliz. the Case was moved again by Popham and he made three points 1. If the other three had a joynt Estate 2. If they had a Remainder 3. If there be an Occupancy And he was of opinion that they had nothing by the habendum for they were not named in the Premisses they cannot have a Remainder for the incertainty but if those three had been named in the Premisses habendum to them Successive as they had been named there they had a Remainder for there the certainty appeared 30 H. 8.8 Dyer 361. Also there can be no Occupancy during the lives of the other three but he agreed to the Book of the 18 Ed. 3.34 that a Lease for life the Remainder to him for anothers life was good And that if a Lease be made to I.S. and a Monk it is void to the Monk and the other hath all and that during the life of the Monk there can be no Occupancy And if I make a Lease to I. S. for the life of a Monk it is a good Lease And till the same terme Iudgment was given that they could take nothing in possession joyntly nor by way of Remainder and that no Occupancy could be in the Case and that I.S. had Estate for terme of his owne life onely Stile against Miles STile Parson did suggest that the Land was parcell of the Glebe of the Parsonage and that the said Stile did let the said Glebe being foure and twenty acres to Miles for years rendring thirteen shillings foure pence Rent and in a Prohibition the case was if Tythes were to be paid And Wray said that although it was parcell of the Glebe yet when it was leased out Tythes ought to be paid and if no Rent be reserved Tythes ought to be paid without question but there may be a doubt where the Rent is reserved to the true value of the Land but here the Rent is of small value wherefore Tythes shall be paid also And the Reservation of the Rent was Pro omnibus exactionibus demandis yet the Iustices took no regard of those words But Godfrey said that those words would discharge him but Wray on the contrary for that this Tythe is not issuing out of the Land but is a thing collaterall and if a Parson do release to his Parishioners all demands in the Land yet Tythes are not thereby released for such generall words will not extend to such a speciall matter And in the 15 of R. 2.

Beale Son of Sampson Beale should marry Margaret the Daughter of the said Lendall if she would assent and also that the said Lendall did covenant that the said Margaret should marry the said Thomas if he would assent Pro quo quidem Maritagio sic tum postea habendo the said William Beale covenanted that he would make or cause to be made an Estate to the said Thomas and Margaret and to the Heirs of their bodies for the Ioynture of the said Margaret and it was further found that afterward a Fine was levied between the said Thomas and Margaret Plaintiffs and Sampson Beale and William Beale

If when the Devisee enters into the terme devised to him without consent of the Executor by which entry he is a wrongfull Seisor and a Disseisor and after he grants his right and interest to the Executor if this Grant be good or no because he had not any terme in him but onely a right to the terme suspended in the land and to be revived by the entry of the Executor And adjudged that it was a good Grant and it shall inure first as the agreement of the Executor by the acceptance of the Grant that the Devisee had a terme in him as a Legacy And secondly the Deed shall have operation by way of Grant to passe the Estate of the Devisee to the Executor and so no wrong and the case was resembled to the case of surrender to the grantee of a Reversion which first shall inure as attornment and after as surrender and so was it adjudged Trin. 37 Eliz. IN an Action on the Case for these words Carter is a prigging pilfering Merchant and hath pilfered away my Corne and my Goods from my Wife and my Servants and this I will stand to And the Action was commenced in a base Court in the Country and Iudgment given and the Record removed by Writ of Error And it seemed to the Court that the words were not actionable wherefore Iudgment was reverst Sed quaere rationem Gowood against Binkes A Man did assume and promise to I.S. in consideration that he would forbeare a Debt due to him untill such a time That he would pay the Debt if A.B. did not pay it and he that made the promise died and the money was not paid and therefore an Action was brought against his Executors who traversed the Assumpsit and a Verdict found against them and in Arrest of Iudgment it was moved that an Action grounded on a simple Contract lies not against Executors unlesse upon an Assumpsit for a Debt or Duty owing by the Testator himself and not of such a collaterall matter as the forbearance of the Debt of another but by Gawdy Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff whereupon Popham said that he believed this Iudgment would be reversed by Writ of Error in the Exchequer Chamber and the same day at Serjeants-Inn such a case was depending in the Exchequer Chamber to be argued and reversed for the cause ut supra And the case was between Jordan and Harvey and entred Trin. 36 Eliz.

Castleman against Hobbs IN an Action of the Case for saying Thou hast stollen half an acre of Corne innuendo Corne severed the Defendant demurred upon the Declaration Fenner It is not Felong to move Graine and take it away Popham agreed to it and that the word Innuendo would not alter the Case unlesse the precedent words had vehement presumption the Corne was severed and in this case no man can think that the Corne was severed when the words are half an acre of Corne on the contrary if the words had been that he had stollen so many loads or bushels of Corne And Gawdy was of the same opinion and Iudgment against the Plaintiff c. Hil. 38 Eliz. IN an Account the Plaintiff declared that he delivered Goods to the Defendant to Merchandize for him the Defend said that the Goods with divers other of his own proper goods wer● taken at Sea where he was robbed of them And it was moved that this was no plea in Bar of an Account but if it be any plea it shall be a plea before Auditors in discharge But admitting it be a good Bar yet it is not well pleaded for the Plaintiff as it is pleaded cannot traverse the robbing and try it for things done super altum mare is not tryable here wherefore the Defendant ought to have pleaded that he was robbed at London or any other certain place upon the Land and maintain it by proofs that he was robbed on the Sea Gawdy It is no good plea for he hath confest himself to be accountable by the receipt 9 Ed. 4. and it is no plea before Auditors no more then the Case was in 9 Ed. 4. for a Carrier to say that he was robbed Popham It is a good plea before Auditors and there is a difference between Carriers and other Servants and Factors for Carriers are paid for their carriage and take upon them safely to carry and deliver the things received Gawdy If Rebels break a Prison whereby the Prisoners escape yet the Goaler shall be responsible for them as it is in the 33 H. 6.

Rot. 40. IN a Writ of Error upon a Iudgment given in Nottingham the Error assigned was because the Defendant had no addition for it appeared the Action was in Debt and the Record was that H. Hund complained against Richard Preston of c. in the County of Nottingham Husbandman the which addition is not in his first name but in the alias and that could not be good and therefore it was prayed that Iudgment might he reversed But by the Court the Court of Nottingham had no authority to outlaw any man so that addition is not requisite wherefore it is no Error and Iudgment was affirmed Trin. 37 Eliz. Rot. 553. Browne against Brinkley IN an Action of the Case for words the Declaration was That the Plaintiff was produced as a Witnesse before the Iustices at the Assises at Darby where he deposed in a certain cause and the Defendant said Browne was disproved before the Iustices of Assise at Darby before Mr. Kingsley Innuendo that he was disproved in his Oath that he took before the Iustices And adjudged against the Plaintiff for although he was disproved in his Oath yet it is not actionable in this case for that disproof might be in any collaterall matter or any circumstance but otherwise if the words had been that he was perjured and the Innuendo will not help the matter and so was it adjudged The chief Iustice and Fenner being onely in the Court. Trin. 36 Eliz. Higham against Beast IN an Action of Trespasse by the Parson of Wickhambrooke in the County of Suffolk against the Vicar of the same place for taking of Tythes and on the generall issue the Iury gave this speciall Verdict That the place where c. was a place called B. the Freehold of I.S. and parcell of the Mannor of Badmanshall and found that the Pope as supream Ordinary heretofore made such an Indowment to the Vicaridge in these words Volumus quod Vicarius c. habebit tertiam partem decimarum Bladorum Foeni quomodocunque pervenientem de
the words are in the negative which will not exclude him of his interest but in the Case at Bar they will because they are in the affirmative so That he shall occupy the Land solely And Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff Pasch 3. Eliz. Woodward against Nelson in B. R. WOodward Parson of Wotton in consideration of 120 l. payd by Bretman one of his Parishioners did accord and agree with him that he and his assignes should be discharged of Tythes during the time that he should be Parson Bretman made a Lease to Nelson Woodward did libell against him for Tythes and Nelson prayed a prohibition upon the said contract And it this was sufficient matter for a prohibition was the Question because it was by word only and without writing which amounts only to a cause of action upon a promise for Bretman but no action for his lessees neither can this amount to a Release of Tythes for as Tythes cannot be leased without Deed so they cannot be released or discharged without Deed. Gawdy Justice Tythes cannot be discharg'd without Deed unless by way of contract for a sum of money and he cited the 21 H. 6.43 Fenner for that year in which the discharge was made it was good by way of discharge without Deed because the Parson for that year had as it were an Interest but such discharge can have no continuance for another year for default of a Deed and so a promise being no discharge it is no cause of a prohibition But Gawdy held as afore And about this time Wray Chief Iustice dyed and Popham succeeded and the same day he was sworn Cook moved this Case again And the Court held that the agreement being by parol was not good And Fenner then said that without writing the agreement could not be good between the parties but for one year And the Court awarded a consultation But upon search made no Iudgment was entred in the Roll. Trinit 35 Eliz. Dr. Foord against Holborrow in B. R. Rot. 367. IN an Action of Debt upon a Bond the case was Dr. Drury to whom the Plaintiff was Executor made a Lease to Holborrow of the Mannour of Golding for years and Holborrow the Lessee entred into a Bond that if he his Executors or Assigns did pay to Anne Goldingham widow the sum of 20 l. for 17 years if the said Goldingham should so long live and so long as Holborrow the Lessee or any claiming by or under the said Holborrow shall or may occupy or enjoy the said Mannour of Goldingham and then Holborrow surreudred his Lease to the Obliges praecextu cujus the Defendant pleaded quod non occupavit nec potuit occupare c. wherefore he did not pay the said sum to Anne Goldingham and the Executor of the Obligee brought an Action of Debt upon this Obligation Johnson for the Defendant The term is gone for he cannot occupy after the surrender and also the Obligee is a party to the cause why it is not performed and therefore he shall take no advantage 4 ● 7.2 But the whole Court was against him for he to whom the surrender is made cometh in quodammodo by him and is his Assignee for he shall be subject to the charge that was before the surrender and also the Defendant shall be bound by these words in the Obligation viz. so long as he shall or may and although these words were not inserted yet he shall pay the annuity for where the first Cause does commence in himself he shall not have advantage thereby but otherwise where he is not party to the first Cause As if two Ioynt-tenants with Warranty make a partition the Warranty is gone because they are parties to the act which made the extinguishment but if one makes a Feoffment of his part the Warranty as to the other remains 11 Ed. 4.8 and in the Case at Bar the Obligor made the surrender and therefore he is party and the first cause and there is a diversity when the thing to be done is collateral and when not for if a Lessee does oblige himself to do a collateral thing as payment of money there he ought to do it although that he surrender for although the Obligee do accept of the surrender yet no act is done by him to hinder the performance of the condition but where the Obligee does any act to hinder the performance of the Condition the Condition is saved as if the Lessee be bound to the Lessor to suffer J.S. to enter into a Chamber during the Lease and he surrenders to the Obligee who will not suffer J.S. to enter the Obligation is saved and Iudgement was given for the Plaintiff 36 Eliz. Bedford against Hall in B. R. IN an Action of Covenant wherein the Plaintiff declared that the Defendant did devise and grant to him certain land with all his goods contained in a certain Inventory for 20 years and said that in the Inventory amongst other things were five Cows which the Defendant seized and that one J.S. took them away as his proper goods as indeed they were and hereupon he brought this Action Fenner The Action will not lye for no interest in the Cows doth pass to the Lessee by this Lease neither was there any right to them in the Lessor As if I demise to you the land of J. S. by these words Dem si concessi and you enter and J S. re-enters no Covenant lyes against me And so in the 11 H. 4. a Prebend made a Lease for years and resigned now is the term of the Lessee quite destroyed and if after he be outed by a new Prebend yet he shall have no Action of Covenant And so is it 9 Eliz. Dyer ●57 Lessee for life makes a Lease for years and dyes the Lessee shall not have a Covenant if he be outed by him in the reversion because he is not in as a Termor at the time of the disturbance But if in the principal Case the Lessor had been possest of the goods although by a wrong title and the Owner had seized them then a Covenant would lye And so if a Disseisor makes a Lease and the Disseisee re-enters the Lessee shall have a Covenant Gawdy If a man lets lands wherein he hath no estate together with his goods although the land will not pass yet the goods do and if a man lets goods for a year and re takes them within the year no Covenant will lye for the property was never in the Lessee C●…c● If a man lets anothers goods to me by Deed if I seize them and the Owner re-takes them a Covenant will lye and so will an Action on the Case if it be without Deed 42 Assi 8.

Scarret against Tanner in C. B. Rot 1458. IN a false Imprisonment the Defendant justified that he was High Constable of the Hundred of E. in the County of ●…p and that the Plaintiff made an affray within the said Hundred upon one Walm who came presently to the Defendant and told him of it and took his oath that he was in fear of his life whereupon the Defendant came to the Plaintiff and arrested him and carried him to Prison untill he could finde sufficient Sureties of peace Glanvill A Constable cannot arrest one to finde surety of the peace upon a complaint made to him unless he himself sees the peace broken 7 Ed. 4.

Anderson I grant that Constables are keepers of the peace at the Common Law and are to keep the peace as much as in them lyes and that is to take men that they finde breaking the peace and to carry them to a Iustice of peace to finde surety but the Constable cannot take security nor recognizance nor bail for he is not an Officer upon Record and if he do take a Bond how shall he certifie it and unto what Court Walmesley contr Who said that the Constable might take security by bond although not by recognizance or bail Beaumond A Constable may put him that breaks the peace within the Stocks but it must be where the breach of peace is committed in his view for he hath no authority to take an oath that a man is in fear of his life and then the foundation of his justification doth fail Owen The oath is not material for although he cannot take such oath yet his taking of surety is good and before Iustices of peace were made the peace was preserved by Constables and the Statute that creates Iustices does not take away the power of Constables and therefore he may justifie Sed adjournatur Pasch 38 Eliz. Worsley against Charnock in C. B. IN an audita quaerela the Case was thus The father and son were bound in a Statute-Merchant to Charnock who sued out an Execution against them and their lands were severally extended and they supposing that the Statute was not good because it was not sealed with both their seals according to the Statute they both brought a joynt audita querela and whether they could joyn in this Action or not was the question Warburton They shall not joyn for in all cases a man must make his complaint according to his grief and here their grief is several as it two men be imprisoned they shall not joyn in a false imprisonment The same Law in a Battery 8 Ed. 4. 18 H. 6. 10 Ed. 4.

Execution 45. 9 Ed. 4.31 12 Ed. 4.6 Harris contra And as to the last reason the Book in the 20 of Elizabeth is that no damages shall be recovered in an audita quaerela which if it be Law then is the doubt at an end And whereas it hath been said that they shall not joyn because their griefs are several methinks there is no reason but that if he that survives shall be charged with the whole that they shall joyn also in their discharge for if their charge be joynt their discharge shall be joynt also And in the 34 H. 6. and 30 Ed. 3. where an audita quaerela may be brought joyntly and he resembled this to the Case of a Monstraverunt where if a Tenant in antient demesn be distreyned all the Tenants shall joyn because the grievance to one may be a grievance to all the rest Yelverton of the same opinion Tho suing of the Execution was the cause of the audita quaerela but not the ground for the ground was the Statute-merchant and therefore it is here brought according to the Statute Anderson If two men do me several Trespasses yet I may have a joynt Action against them and the death of one of them shall not abate the Writ but if two are Plaintiffs in a personal Action the non-suit of one shall be the non-suit of the other and in our case the Statute was joynt and also the Execution then if all the Writs are so the audita quaerela which is to discharge them shall be joynt also especially in this Writ where they are as it were Defendants and therefore he resembled this Case to a Writ of Errour or an Attaint brought by two joyntly and one is non-sued yet this shall not abate the Writ because they are in a manner Defendants Walmesley contr The Action ought to be brought according to the cause of the wrong and the wrong begun in suing the Execution and that was several and therefore the audita quaerela ought to be several also but if this Statute had been good and had been discharged by release or defeasance then the audita quaerela might be brought joyntly for then the ground of the execution was joynt but here is but a colourable Statute and the cause of the Action is not begun before the Execution sued Owen and Beaumond agreed and after by assent of Anderson Iudgement was given that they ought to have several Writs Note Pasch 36 Eliz. in B.
