c. The same law if an Abbot make a Feoffment in Fee and afterwards is deposed and sometime after is made Abbot now he shall have an Action against his Deed which he himself made when he was Abbot because that now he comes in as Successor and not in the place as he was before The same Law of Warden and Schollars But it would have been otherwise if he had disseised a Parson and made Feoffment in Fee with warranty or without warranty and afterwards is made Parson now if he will use an Action his own Feoffment shall be a Barr against him because that all that he shall recover by this Action is to his own use The same Law if a man disseise a woman and makes a Feoffment in Fee and afterwards he takes the woman to Wife in this case the Husband shall be Barred because that he will have advantage of this Recovery to his own use If a man hath right to have Land where his Entry is tolle and releaseth to the Tenant all manner of Actions and dye his Heir shall have his Action and recover the Land because that by such release no right is extinguished and if the Tenant makes Feoffment in Fee or dyes seised he that made the release shall have his Action against the Heir of the Tenant or his Feoffee against his own release and the cause is because that nothing is released but his Action against the same person and not any right If the Son disseise his Father and make a Feoffment with warranty or without warranty and after his Father dyes he cannot ouste his Feoffee because that it was his own Deed. A man hath good cause of Action sometimes and yet by matter ex post facto and by the Act of a Stranger his Action is destroyed As I am disseisee and he is disseisor and I release to the disseisor Also I bail or lend Goods to one a Stranger takes them the bailor sells them to a Stranger c. Action of Debt upon an obligation brought by an Executor the writ shall be detinet and not debet and for this cause they joyn in the same Action for an Horse delivered by themselves to the same Obligor The same Law if a man recover Lands by default in which I have an Estate for life and he recovers by another writ by default Lands wherein I have an Estate Tail I shall have a Quod ei deforceat because the conclusion of the writ serves me And so a man may joyn two or three things in his Action where the conclusion of his Action is pertinent to the several matters and doth not vary If two or three Acres are given severally in tail and the party discontinue the whole his Heir shall have Formedon for the whole because that the writ is le quel un I. dit S. dona and although the Acres are given severally that is not material forasmuch as the common Writ will serve in this case But if the Acres are given by divers or several men or that the one shall be given to the Heirs Males and the other to the Heirs Females and the third to the Heirs General in this case the Heir shall have several writs and not one writ because that one writ cannot serve for such several Gifts If I deliver Goods to one who is indebted to me and he dyes against his Executors I may have a writ for the Goods and for the Debt because that the writ is against the Executors for the Debt in the Detinet and for the detinue it is in the Detinet and therefore the writ well warrants the count to declare partly for debt and partly for Detinue but such an Action he could not have had against the Testator because that for the debt against him the writ ought to have been in the debet and detinet A Feoffment is made upon condition of payment by the Feoffor he commits Trespass and afterwards enters by force of payment c. yet the Feoffee shall have Trespass because his possession is affirm'd 43 E. 3.

Where Debt or damages are recovered in a Court-Baron the Bailiff ought not to sell the Goods of the Defendant and deliver the money to the Plaintiff But to impound them and keep them as pledges until the Defendant makes his agreement but where it hath been the use of the Court to award a Levari facias it is good by Custome Where the younger son in Burrough-English dyes the Middle Son not the Eldest shall have the Land The same Law for Customary or Copy-hold Lands It was the Custom of the Kings-Bench every Term once or twice to send the Coroner of that place to the Marshal to view the Prisoners that are in the Marshals Custody by Commititur or matter of Record and if any of them are wanting that he could not find them there then to mark their names in his Coroners Book and to inform the Court thereof And thereupon the Court did pose the Marshal who was to inform the Justices what was become of those Prisoners And if he found not sufficient cause of excuse the Court would Record their escape against the Marshal And the abusing of an Office is the escape of Prisoners in the Marshal an abuse of his Office and just cause of Forfeiture If an Alien have a son that is also an Alien and after the Father is made free and then hath another Son and after purchaseth Lands and dyes The second Son born after the Freedom shall be Heir and not the Eldest by the Common-Law and usage of the Realm And also if there be three Brothers and the middlemost purchaseth Lands and dyes without Heir of his Body the Eldest Brother shall inherit and not the Youngest By the Custom of London a Feme Covert that is to say a Sole Merchant may sue and be sued in absence of her Husband Bulstrode part 1. fo 14. where you may read of three sorts of Customs that are void and against Law 1. a Custom against Justice 2. a Custom against the Benefit of the Common-Wealth and 3. a Custom that is to the Prejudice of a third Person Custom and usage in the intendment of the Law is such a usage as hath obtained the force of Law and is binding to such particular place as Gavelkind in Kent and Burrough-Euglish in many Corporations in England When the Custom of the Realm is the Common Law WHen it is the Common-Law a Custom ought not to be alleadged or Pleaded But an Action against a Carrier Hoyman Common Hosteler and for negligently keeping of Fire the Plaintiff may declare upon the General Custom of the Realm or not at his Election And note That a Custom is always Local and to be alleadged in one certain place but a Prescription is personal and ought to be alledged in some persons certain as in such a man his Ancestors or Predecessors or those whose Estate he hath 22 H. 6. 22. A Prescription is always to be of such a thing and in such manner as may be intended to have a lawful and legal commencement or otherwise it is not good but a Custom may be contrary to the Rules and Maxims of the Law as Borough-English Gavelkind Copy-hold Tenures So Lands devisable by Custom So that the Custom be reasonable Co. 6.
