if_o one_o part_n be_v revocable_a so_o be_v another_o also_o and_o thus_o revocation_n may_v spread_v itself_o over_o the_o whole_a nay_o doubtless_o the_o whole_a vno_fw-la flatu_fw-la may_v be_v

a_o debtor_n or_o creditor_n a_o executor_n as_o touch_v the_o first_o viz._n the_o bequest_n of_o a_o chattel_n real_a or_o personal_a which_o the_o testator_n have_v in_o possession_n

reason_n in_o both_o case_n be_v this_o viz._n that_o the_o law_n prefer_v debt_n and_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o they_o before_o legacy_n and_o tie_n executor_n also_o to_o that_o rule_n and_o therefore_o will_v transfer_v nothing_o from_o or_o out_o of_o the_o executor_n till_o he_o have_v consider_v of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o debt_n to_o be_v pay_v and_o good_n out_o of_o which_o the_o

his_o own_o good_n any_o damage_n or_o loss_n as_o a_o waster_n and_o thereupon_o shall_v assent_v to_o such_o legacy_n thus_o now_o be_v the_o law_n take_v but_o heretofore_o some_o opinion_n have_v run_v otherwise_o viz._n that_o he_o to_o who_o any_o bequest_n be_v make_v of_o a_o thing_n know_v and_o certain_a 8._o may_v take_v it_o without_o any_o assent_n of_o the_o executor_n before_o and_o that_o when_o to_o the_o executor_n himself_o any_o good_a or_o chattel_n movable_a or_o immovable_a be_v bequeath_v in_o case_n there_o be_v otherwise_o sufficient_a good_n for_o satisfaction_n of_o debt_n the_o same_o shall_v instant_o upon_o the_o testator_n death_n without_o any_o act_n or_o election_n by_o the_o executor_n be_v transfer_v into_o and_o unto_o he_o in_o his_o own_o right_n as_o a_o legacy_n and_o not_o remain_v in_o he_o as_o executor_n as_o for_o sum_n of_o money_n bequeath_v buy_v or_o so_o much_o in_o plate_n or_o ring_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o they_o must_v be_v have_v by_o the_o delivery_n of_o the_o executor_n yet_o have_v the_o legate_n such_o a_o interest_n before_o delivery_n as_o that_o die_v before_o payment_n it_o will_v go_v to_o his_o executor_n but_o as_o i_o take_v it_o no_o such_o to_o who_o any_o thing_n certain_a be_v give_v by_o will_n can_v make_v any_o gift_n or_o grant_n of_o it_o before_o the_o executor_n have_v assent_v to_o his_o have_v thereof_o thereabouts_o nor_o perhaps_o will_v the_o executor_n assent_v after_o the_o grant_n have_v such_o relation_n as_o to_o make_v good_a the_o grant_n precedent_n why_o so_o yet_o more_o than_o a_o atturnment_n of_o a_o leassee_n which_o be_v alike_o assent_v to_o the_o grant_n of_o another_o and_o quere_z if_o by_o the_o out-lawry_a of_o the_o legatee_n before_o the_o executor_n

recovery_n of_o debt_n against_o they_o by_o common_a law_n it_o be_v reason_n that_o law_n enable_v they_o to_o keep_v wherewith_o to_o pay_v and_o here_o yet_o note_v some_o seem_a opposition_n in_o

of_o this_o lease_n by_o his_o will_n be_v a_o breach_n of_o the_o condition_n as_o be_v a_o alienation_n in_o his_o life_n time_n 3._o of_o a_o discharge_n by_o will_n to_o a_o debtor_n some_o

of_o the_o executor_n on_o the_o one_o side_n since_o this_o give_n be_v a_o forgive_n for_o he_o to_o who_o it_o be_v bequeath_v can_v otherwise_o have_v it_o then_o by_o way_n of_o retainer_n it_o may_v probable_o be_v say_v that_o here_o need_v no_o such_o assent_n of_o the_o executor_n as_o in_o the_o case_n where_o any_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v transfer_v for_o here_o be_v rather_o a_o extinguishment_n and_o a_o exoneration_n than_o a_o passage_n of_o a_o chattel_n by_o way_n of_o donation_n on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o be_v probable_a that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o bequest_n and_o so_o a_o legacy_n since_o debt_n be_v in_o law_n and_o conscience_n to_o be_v satisfy_v before_o any_o legacy_n that_o therefore_o the_o executor_n have_v not_o sufficient_a otherwise_o to_o satisfy_v his_o testator_n debt_n may_v sue_v for_o this_o debt_n and_o refuse_v to_o suffer_v it_o to_o pass_v away_o as_o a_o legacy_n and_o to_o this_o opinion_n do_v i_o incline_v as_o best_a for_o creditor_n and_o satisfaction_n of_o debt_n be_v by_o law_n respect_v as_o a_o act_n great_o concern_v the_o testator_n soul_n but_o some_o will_v perhaps_o make_v a_o contrary_a doubt_n that_o although_o there_o be_v a_o assent_n of_o the_o executor_n to_o this_o discharge_n yet_o it_o will_v not_o amount_v to_o a_o legal_a release_n for_o that_o a_o debt_n at_o least_o esse_fw-la if_o it_o be_v by_o speciallty_n can_v be_v release_v but_o by_o deed_n and_o a_o will_n be_v no_o deed_n for_o a_o seal_n be_v not_o necessary_a thereunto_o though_o it_o be_v fit_a and_o convenient_a whereto_o i_o give_v this_o answer_n that_o a_o will_n though_o it_o be_v not_o proper_o and_o legal_o a_o deed_n for_o it_o may_v be_v good_a enough_o without_o a_o seal_n which_o be_v a_o essential_a part_n of_o a_o deed_n yet_o have_v it_o the_o force_n and_o effect_n of_o a_o deed_n for_o as_o a_o release_n can_v be_v make_v but_o by_o deed_n so_o neither_o can_v a_o estate_n or_o interest_n though_o but_o for_o year_n
by_o a_o wrongful_a person_n and_o in_o suttons_n case_n it_o be_v express_o hold_v that_o each_o executor_n shall_v answer_v for_o so_o much_o as_o he_o waste_v now_o for_o the_o five_o and_o last_o

case_n where_o the_o verdict_n pass_v direct_o against_o the_o plaintiff_n no_o devastation_n can_v come_v in_o question_n for_o that_o no_o judgement_n be_v for_o the_o plaintiff_n no_o writ_n of_o

the_o judgement_n extend_v only_o to_o the_o testator_n good_n in_o the_o executor_n hand_n let_v we_o find_v the_o way_n to_o relieve_v the_o creditor_n in_o case_n the_o testator_n good_n be_v

it_o be_v no_o verdict_n upon_o issue_n join_v but_o a_o inquest_n of_o office_n which_o exclude_v also_o all_o challenge_n of_o juror_n and_o whereas_o that_o book_n mention_n the_o sheriff_n
