E. 6. In the Guild-Hall London in the Hustings in time of Tent. AN Assise of Freshforce upon a plaint of Intrusion or of Novell Diseisen was brought by John Pollard Esquire and Mary his wife in the Hustings of the Guild-Hall London against Bartholomew Jekell Ralph Foxley and Anne his wife and eleven others 10. of them appear by Baily and plead nultiel in rerum natura as one named in the Writ this shall abate but for him onely and shall stand good for the others It was adjudged so in the quare impedit against the Bishop of Carlile many others where the death of one of the Defendants was pleaded by abatement for speed in avoiding of delays therein For voucher lyeth not in it unless the party himself be present in Court and Protection lyeth not because excepted in an Assise therefore it sufficeth if Tenant and Disseisor relinquish and the Land is the chief and Original cause of the Action otherwise in Trespass for there the person is chief and the death of one shall abate the whole Writ by 29. Ass fol. 62. adjudged but the contrary was held 44. E. 3.18 47. E. 3.18 The Parson of Honylanes Case AN Assise of Freshforce against Moore 7. F. 6. Panel Parson against Moore the Mercers of London and a Corporation The Corporation may not appear by Baily without Warrant for that it is to defend their wrong otherwise it is to justifie a Trespass which is but a personall thing And although the Assise Pone per vadios salvos plegios predict Defend vel Ballivum suum si ipse inventus non fuerit generally yet he shall be intended a Lawfull Baily by Warrant And the Defendant pleaded that the Plaintiff hath entred after the last continuance and Issue taken thereupon the Jury gave a speciall Verdict That he entred for to see the antiquity of the buildings at the request of the Defendant which had invited him to dinner and adjudged no entry to abate the Writ for that if he were a stranger he should not be a Trespasser by this because of the request because he had not any intent to enter and continue in possession The Jury may give a speciall Verdict and find the matter at large upon every issue by equity of the Statute of Westminster 2. cap. 30. if this tends to prove the part of the Issue onely per curiam Woodland against Mantle and Redsole THe Lord incroacheth services of another nature and avow for this 5. 6. E. 6. Replevin The Tenure shall be Traversed and not the Seisen otherwise it is if he encroach more of the same nature as where he holdeth by 12. d. to encroach 2. s. c. There the seisen shall be Traversed for the quality of the Tenure is Traversable and not the quantity But to avoid the incroachment of the quantity the Tenant is put to a Writ of Customs and Services or contra formam Feoffamenti and this is an Estoppell between true Lord and Tenant onely in Replevin and the Tenant may make Rescous if he Distrains for this incroachment And the Lord may not make Title in Assise for this incroachment And also this encroachment is intendable onely between true Lord and true Tenant and not Donor and Donee Lessor and Lessee for there they ought to avow upon the Reservation which the Tenants may Traverse notwithstanding the encroachment by Plowden The Lord may Seise or Distrain for Heriot Service adjudged because he hath property in this by the death of his Tenant and the certainty thereof appeareth by 6. E. 3 277. Matters of the Crown at Salop. IF one be present and abet a Murtherer he is principall as well as he that kils the man 1. Mar. at the Sessions in Salop. and shall be indicted although that the Murtherer flies and be not attainted because both are principals in the first and same degree And he which abets is not onely principall in the second degree but if one be Indicted as accessary to two he shall not be arraigned with the abettor untill he which flies is also attainted and adjudged which agreeth with 40. Ass 25.7 H. 4.29 and 36. b. And if the abettor be found guilty by one Verdict and the Murtherer by another Verdict is acquitted now Judgement shall be respited against the abettor for the Court will give more credit to the Verdict which was charged directly upon the principal act then another which is charged implicitely and oblique 1 Mar at the same Sessions FIve were Indicted of Murther of a Servant of Doctor Ellis's and one venire facias awarded against all and they severed in peremptory Challenges yet the Jurors which were challenged shall be drawn against all upon the Challenge of one although that the others challenge him not but allow him 1. Adjudged for that the venire facias is intire that the Court in discretion at the prayer of the Attorney of the King may sever the Jury and Tales thereupon 2. They may make one Jury serve severally against every of them by himself 3. The evidence given against the prisoners prove That the Servant was killed upon malice prepenced to Doctor Ellis himself which was in company at the time of the Murther And the Court resolved That this Malice to the Master extends to the Servant and all others which defend the Master and resist the malice of the Murtherers 4. Resolved also That if two are fighting of malice prepenced and a stranger which hath no malice takes part with the one and kils the other this is manslaughter in him and Murther in the other 5. Resolved if one be indicted of Murther and found guilty of Manslaughter and acquitted of the Murther yet Judgement shall be given against him that he shall be hanged for that the death of a man which is the substance is found although that the circumstance is not yet he was reprieved by the discretion of the Justices Fulmerston against Steward M. 1. 2. P. Mar. in the kings Bench in trespass PLeading that the Masters and confreres of a Colledge was seized in fee is good without saying in the right of the Colledge for it shall be so intended for that they are named by the name of corporation otherwise it is if they were named by their particular names 2. If one plead a Lease of a Mannor with an exception made to the defendant and will avoid this for parcel of the Mannor because of another Lease made to the first Lessee within a year after the making of the Statute of 31. H. 8. ca. 13. he ought to aver in pleading that the exception extends not to this parcel For otherwise it shall so intend strongest against him that pleads it and then pass not
it ought to be conjoyned to certainty as 9. H. 7.3 by Fineux and 6. H. 4.7 Debt upon payment at two days whereof the one is come abates by shewing of the Plaintiff the same because he hath shewed falsity So 20. H. 6.30 one ought to reherse the Stat. upon which he bringeth Champerty for to Warrant this certainly which ought to appear alwaies to the Court but not in one manner as sometimes by the replication in Assizes sometimes by Verdict as in aquare impedit the value of the Church In Ward the value of the Marriage in Detinue the value of the goods as in 20. H. 6. Champerty was brought which was not Warranted by any Statute and there Newton said That if the party could not shew to them some Statute by which it is Warranted that they would award that the Writ should abate And for that which hath been said that he needs not to recite the Statute and therefore misrecital is not material it seemed to them That howbeit he need not yet if he recites it and there is none such then he hath failed of his substance for the Court will not aid him nor think he intendeth any other thing then what he hath shewed and by this abundance in reciting more then needs hurts the party many times And therefore in 20. H. 6. fol. 42. contrary to 8. H. 6.33 Fitz. H. Count 15. of forging of false Deeds the Writ was of Diversa facta and minimenta c. and he counted but of one onely and by assent of all the Justices it was awarded That the Writ should abate and so abundance abated the Writ And if one maketh Title in Assize in his plaint where he need not yet if it be not formall all shall abate and yet it was abundance and more then he was compelled to do So in the principal case And where it was said That the Defendants by their Demurrer have confessed such Act of Parliament as the plaintiff hath declared they held that admitting this to be a confession yet this binds nor the Court which is a third person as appears by 10. E. 4. Wherein Trespass of Cattle taken brought by the Lessee for years the Defendant said That the Lessor held of him by Rent which was Arear and he took the beasts for it the Plaintiff said nothing Arear and there although the Defendant had admitted the Writ good yet the opinion of the Justices was That the Writ should abate for that the Lord was Defendant And so if the Defendant will admit good an appeal brought by the wife of the death of her Father yet the Court ought to abate it although the party affirm it and a Demur-is a Confession of all matters in Fact but not of matters in Law For by the Demurrer he puts it to the Judgement of the Court and confesseth not the Law against himself although the King may wave the Issue and so Demur in Law and recover afterwards fol. 236. and he hath many other prerogatives yet shall he be bound by misrecitall or by misusing or misconceiving of his Action and there shall abate the Writs where he is sole party as in the case of a common person à fortiori where another is party with the King as here the Plaintiff ought to shew certainty of the Lease here by Cook by other Justices not In Decies tantum certainty of the Summ received here because he shall not recover ten times as much and may not without shewing in Champerty the certainty of the first plea here because privy to the Record So in Trespass if the Defendant pleads Franck-Tenenemt the Plaintiff intitles himself by a Lease made by him the Defendant will shew that he made a Feoffment and that he entred for Forfeiture he ought to shew the name of the Feoffee and certainty of the Feoffment because he is privy and in all cases of privies he ought to shew the certainty as 2. H. 7.6 in Bar of Dower the Heir pleaded detainer of evidences he shall shew certainty for he is privy to them that he affirms to appertain to him of a bag sealed with Charters not 18. H. 8.1 because the bag sealed is certain Indictment cujusdam ignoti good Stamford fol. 95. and after fol. 129. Statute penal here not taken by equity by all the Justices as an Attaint shall not 14. H. 7.13 nor the Statute which augments bread by evil making nor things out of the words shall not be taken by equity But the words may be expounded beneficially as Treason by the Statute 25. E. 3. for killing of a Master so of a Mistris are of one effect 19. H. 6.47 but not by equity but rather within words Plural number contains singular by Hales So here pretenced Rights and Titles as shall be punished for forging one false Deed yet 1. H. 5. cap. 3. speaks of false Deeds So for Entry into one Tenement yet 5. R. 2. cap. 7. speaks of Entry into Tenements under this word any the lesser Estate is contained in the greater as 23. H. 6.10 prohibits that a Sheriff shall Lease his County to farm in any manner shall not Lease part thereof after fol. 124. contrary by Hales This Lease here made by one in possession is out of the Statute because it is not averred to be a pretenced right viz. the bargain and Lease to be made for maintenance contrary Cook for this was the point of the Statute as 9. H. 6.26 if published onely yet the Stat. is in the Copulative for forging and publishing this within the Statute but ought to aver That it was published to trouble the possession and Title of the Plaintiff for this is the point of the Statute So here the Lease ought to be averred for maintenance for this is the point of our Statute Montague Chief Justice He that is in possession may buy the pretenced right of another he which is out of possession if he promise or bargain to depart with the Land when he shall get the possession is within the Statute and maketh it void by the Common Law wherefore the Statute affirms it and adds a greater pain to the thing done against the Common Law and the Statute shall be meant to avoid a bargain of Right when out of possession he which hath possession but one hour alwaies may sell or it shall be a hard Exposition Acts expounded against the words of the Statute because Law and Reason allows it As Tenant hanging a Precipe Infeoffs his Son and Heir 6. E. 3. fol. 274. after fol. 204. good contray to the words of the Articuli super Chartas cap. 2. because the Son may not maintain to the Father but is bound to aid his father So an Heir may abet his Mother for to bring an appeal as W. 2. Cap. 12. So a Trespass in a Park without hunting shall not be punished by a year before refers to the Clause before onely so that the Clause being in possession Reversion or Remainder
the patol Demur in cui in vita per nonage of the second vouchee because he was not heir to the husband and so because penal here in savor of him it is restrained to the heir of the husband onely So by W. 2. cap. 11. an accomptant found in arrearages shall be imprisoned by Auditors and saith not when in 27. H. 6 8. In debt for arrearages of accompt it is adjudged That if the Auditors do not commit the accomptant to prison presently after the accompt and therefore the generality of time is restrained to a particularity by the rule of the Common Law in construction of Statutes and also by the intent of the makers for if the scope and end of the matter is satisfied all the matter and intent of the matter is accomplished and the scope of the Statute here was That the King shall have the Subsidie and the agreement here sufficeth for that because it authorizeth the King to weigh Woad by the Collector when he pleaseth and then the King hath Title of Action and so the surety of the King thereby is referred to will Also such agreement hath been allowed upon the same words of former Statutes for Subsidies Also if the Statute had expressed the agreement in certain yet agreement uncertain should have been good here and out of the penalty because the infringing of the words of the Law without the infringing of the intent of the Law for upon some accidents the law priviledges some things done against the words of the Law of the nature of the Law of this Realm and of other Realms and the Law of God viz. First for to avoid greater inconveniencies Secondly for necessity Thirdly by compulsion Fourthly by involuntary ignorance First for the avoiding of greater inconveniencies as 22. ass pl. 6. where a man of non sane memory and in his rage did great hurt and another man and his parents took him bound him and beat him with rods and here it is holden that they might justifie this in avoidance of greater damage being of non sane memory and yet the Law of nature and of the Realm prohibites battery but this particular case for the avoiding of greater mischief hath one exception and special priviledge So 1. H. 6.9 The Lord contrary to the Statute of Marlebridge may lead the Distress from the Land into another County where the Mannor is for it should be prejudicial to the Lord if he should not carry the distress to his Manor Amongst the Romans they had a Law That every one which should scale the walls in the night should be condemned to death and one in the night did scale the walls in the time of War to discry enemies to the Romans and he by the judgement of the Senate was not onely discharged but had a reward therefore so such interpreting of Laws is a tempering of the rigor of the Law Secondly necessitas non habet legem and therefore it is a good excuse in every Law as 38. H. 6.11 Increasing of water excuseth a default in a precipe quod reddat because he could not appear without danger of death yet the Law abhors every default because it is in contempt of the Court So David did eat bread for necessity although prohibited by the Law of God Thirdly compulsion excuses in Law as the avoiding of an obligation made by dares So if the arm of any man is drawn by compulsion and a weapon in his hand kill another this shall not be Felony nor he damnified because he did it by compulsion Fourthly involuntary ignorance doth excuse as 3. H. 7.1 Kell fol. 268. An infant killeth another it is not Felony because he hath not discretion and it shall be imputed to his ignorance which is involuntary by compulsion of nature so no default in him So Fitz. Nat. br 202. b. if one of non sane memory kill another because his ignorance by compulsion viz. the hand of God and such other things done by ignorance because not to be resisted and this involuntary ignorance is cause of the Act and therefore he which kills another by involuntary ignorance As by th● fall of a hatchet out of his hand shall have Sanctuary Deut. 19. But ignorance voluntary is not priviledged as if a man killeth another because this ignorance cometh by his own act and folly which he might have resisted and therefore shall not be priviledged because he himself was the cause of such ignorance if any were à fortiori in all the cases together before mentioned shall excuse for the Law is not offended for the said four causes the incertainty of the agreement here and therefore in as much as the Statute saith The Collectors not agreed with and so gives him authority to agree with the Collector and the Defendant hath made a special agreement with him which is an agreement and so within the words of the Statute if seemeth that by the rules of the Common Law used in construction of Statutes is by the intent of the makers and by all reason and equity shall be adjudged a sufficient agreement and warranted by the Statute and therefore demanded judgement against the King and so it was adjudged But all the Judges were of opinion against the King onely Hales and Montague and afterwards the King sent his Privy-Seal Colthirst against Bejushin 23. Tr●… E. 6 in the Common Pleas. En Trespass the Defendant pleads a Lease for life to H. B. and E. his wife remainder to his son W. for his life si ipse habitaret residens esset in and upon the aforesaid Grange and Farm and if he should dye in the life time of H. and E. then to remain to B. the Defendant for his life if he also would inhabite there during the Term aforesaid and saith That W. did dye in the life of H. and E. and after H. and E. dyed also and the said B. now Defendant entred without shewing in certain when and took averment that he had inhabited there alwaies after his entry and upon this Plea the Plaintiff Demurs and it was adjudged against him for the Defendant 1. For that the averment of his continual residence is surplusage and therefore the incertainty thereof nil refert by Harris Hinde and Montague 2. It is not a condition compulsary but a thing elegible at the discretion of the Defendant by Montague and then his entry is not material but at his pleasure 3. Admitting that it be a condition yet it is subsequent and in defeasance of his Estate and therefore ought not to be shewed by him which shall have benefit thereby the contrary is of a condition precedent 4. For that it is pleaded by way of Bar and being certain to a common intent it sufficeth and it shall be intended that he entred immediately after the Remainder happened but by Hales Justice this common intent ought to be of a vehement presumption and not indifferent 5. That this word if W. dye then
to the Livery So in the case of Plessington 6. R. 2. where the Condition was That if the Lessor die within the Term the Lessee shall have for life and there holden that his estate shall be enlarged if the Lessor die So Disseisen to the use of I. passeth not a Free hold of I. to I. without his agreement so here A remainder passeth when W. died not before by force of the words annexed to the Livery So by Litl a confirmation to the Husband and Wife Tenants for life passes the remainder to the Husband yet it passeth not at the time of the first Estate and the diversity where Fee upon Condition is appointed to privy and whereto a stranger is but a conceit which is worth nothing 29. according 24. to the contrary and is privity because it reserveth out of both so it shall bind him in remainder and also he in remainder shall have waste and so is privy to the particular Estate and the Lessor also and the words then which shall remain shall not be intended presently to destroy the particular Estate but shall remain as a remainder ought to divest then and is to be executed after their deaths as if Donee in Tail doth such an Act then to remain to his right heirs which vests when the Act is done and after the Tail ended shall be executed and not presently upon the Act done to avoid the Tail so here There is not any repugnancie or prejudice to any but a thing when it is done made in prejudice of another shall be void as a remainder that he shall have the land in the life of the particular Tenant So 21. E. 4.44 The King discharges an Abbot That he shall not be a Collector when any Titles should be granted by the Clergy of England and Canterbury Grants Tythes provided that the Collector returned by the Bishop shall not be discharged by the King and the Bishop returns the Abbot Collector there holden that the Grant by the Clergie in this point viz. to charge persons exempt is void because it is in prejudice of others And so the remainder here shall be void rather then a shranger shall have prejudice by it but for defaults in the pleading the Plaintiff ought to recover Hinde Justice to the 3. exception the death of the particular Tenant shall not be shewed which is onely conveyance of the execution of the remainder and is not Traversable nor Issuable To the first and Second exceptions he needs not shew his continual residence after the Remainder is fallen nor the day of his entry because it is a Condition subsequent and goes in defease of his Estate and he which hath benefit by it ought to shew it as 29. H. 6.22 the Grantee of an annuity pro concilio impendendo shall have the Annuity without shewing that he hath given Councel for that the shewing of it is not beneficial to him and the denial of Councel defeats the Annuity so he agrees to the diversity in case of Annuity 15. H. 7.1 bont fol. 25 by Pollard when one shall be promoted and therefore the shewing hereof that which is surplusage and the imperfectness of it shall not make the Bar vitious and the Remainder here by him commenceth not upon Condition but it is a limitation and explanation from the time that it first begun for nothing or words makes a Condition but such which restrains the thing given as If I. Lease for life upon Condition That if the Lessee die or maketh waste and I. recover the place wasted or any parcel of it That I. shall enter into all for it is a Condition for that part in which no waste is done because it restrains and defeats that part And if it be a Condition here yet the Remainder thereupon is good if it commenced and vested at any time during the particular Estates 24 29. 32 34. for when he hath Fee-Simple he may Condition with it as he pleaseth if it be not against Law as if I. Lease for life upon Condition That I. S. paies to me 20. l. that I. shall enter then the Remainder is void because the entry avoids the first estate and then no particular estate continues upon which a Remainder may depend Brown Justice to the same purpose The entry of the Defendant shall be intended immediately for this is the most common intent and a Bar good to a common intent shall be intended that he entred presently after his Title accrued and to the matter in Law hold that the remainder shall be good upon Condition Montague Chief Justice to the same intent The entry of the Defendant shall be intended presently for this is the most common intent and a Bar good to a common intent is good as 21. E. 4.83 in Assize the Tenant pleads a discent to him as Son and Heir and he entred and it was held good yet the Father of the Plaintiff might have abated and died seised and then the Plaintiff is in as Son and Heir in which case the Tenant might not enter But this is not intendable but the most common intent is That the Tenant entred immediatly after the death of of his Father So 9. E. 4.12 in Debt against five Executors at the Distress 3. makes Default 2. appears and pleads Recovery against them two of 300. and that more they had not in their hands Exception taken That because by intent there should be five Executors two might have abated the first suit and so the Recovery not duly had but holden good because it may be that then they two onely administred and then they did lie against them two onely and the most common intent is that it might be so rather than at first to lose advantage to have abated the Writ and therefore the Plea in Bar was held good and Execution duly had and if it were otherwise the Plaintiff ought to have shewed it So 21. E. 4.8.1 In formidon in discender The Tenant pleads the release of the Demandant without Warranty in Bar yet might be made by him in the life time of the father and then it is no Bar but it shall be intended to be made after the death of the Father if the Demandant replies not to the contrary but if he which pleads in Bar is bound at a time certain he ought to shew the day of his Act certainly 24 26 27. as the day of entry for Mortmain so that it may appear to be within the year So if one justifies for Common between Lammas and Candlemas So if one justifies by Warrant by Licence by Authority he alwaies ought to shew the time certain of his justification so that pleading in abatement of the Writ or a plea after the last continuance ought to plead certainly and these are observed as principles in our Law but he which pleads in the Negative ought not to plead certainly If he would dwell c. It is like that it is not a Condition here because it is not
imbesseling of a Habcas Corpora upon a Formedon between the Plaintiff and another holden good whithout shewing the Original and certainty of the Land and all the Record in certain because the Record is but a conveyance to the suit of Deceit and therefore for this cause cannot be gainsaid as to say Nultiel Record But where a Record is pleaded in Bar all shall be shewed certainly and is Traversable there in Conclusion or general Demurrer as petit judicium if the Plaintiff shall maintain the Action one shall have advantage of all defaults and of every thing mentioned in the Record and of every point that the Law gives him In Conclusion speciall of defaults onely alleadged in certain as here petit judicium if the Plaintiff shall maintain the action there if it be void for another cause then this which is mentioned he shall not have benefit of this of a thing void ab initio as the Obligation here because void by Statute so in avoidance of a Deed That he was not a man lettered and that it was read to him in another form So 24. H. 8. 28. because delivered as an Escrow upon Condition the Conclusion shall be so not his Deed because the matter proves that it was never his Deed of a thing voidable where it was void after because once is was a Deed the Conclusion shall be Judgement if Action because the duty is now extinct as 1. H. 7. 15. by release 35. H. 6. 18. for nonage 7. E. 4. 5. by dures When the Conclusion is nought and the matter in Law good Officium Judicis est for to give Verdict against the Plaintiff if it appeareth that he had not cause of Action howbeit that the Defendant hath lost the advantage thereof as it is here So 7. E. 4. 31. Trespass against B. and C. B. pleads not guilty C. pleads the gift of B. found guilty and found for C. no judgement for the Plaintiff because found against him So. appeal of a woman for the death of her father 10. E. 4. 7. because she shall not have an appeal of the death of any man except her husband or Trespass against the Lord by distress where nothing is in arear because the Statute is Non ideo puacatur dominus abate ex officio although the Defendant accepts the Writ good for the Plaintiff shall be barted by the Court ex officio and shall not have judgement although the Defendant admits his Title or by his Conclusion hath concluded himself of his advantage if it appeareth that he had no Title 1. The first branch is commanding and authorising the Sheriff to let to Bail persons manipernable by the Common Law viz. persons taken by Writ Bill or Warrant upon an Action personall or indictment of Trespass for it was indifferent if they were guilty or not made in affirmance of the Common Law 2. The second Branch viz. The exception was also made in the affirmance of the Common Law before for such persons which were in by condemnation execution Capias ut legat c. were not bailable before 3. The third is onely the purview which relates to the second branch as well as to the first for before refers to all this spoken of before as well the thing excepted as otherwise as a Lease for years of a Mannor except a Close rendring Rent the Lessee binds himself to perform all Covenants Grants and Agreements expressed or recited in the Indenture and after disturbs the Lessor of a thing excepted he hath forfeletd the Obligation because it is an Agreement for when he excepted the Close the other was contented with it and that the Lessor should occupy it and recited goes to the exception as to the rest 45. E. 3. 4. contained and recited goes to every Covenant in the Indenture An Act done Colore officii is extortion as if an Officer takes more for Fees then he ought And an Obligation taken of a prisoner for meat and drink is void because it is colore officii for he nor the Plaintiff are not bound to give him sustenance as he which distrains is not bound to give although he be in for Felony because 7. H. 4. 47. his goods are his untill he be attainted by the Common Law which is confirmed by 1. R. 3. c. 3. Rastal Forfeiture fol. 15. and if he dies for want of sustenance it is his own fault because that by presumption his ill demeanor bringeth him to such imprisonment The Statute of R. 3. restrains the Sheriff and other Officers to take Obligations of their prisoners except the Warden of the Fleet and the Kings Pallace at Westminster A Sheriff lets to mainprise one taken by Capias upon an indictment of Trespass which for the surety of the Sheriff makes an obligation to a stranger to keep his day is 7. E. 4. 5. held to be void because taken to another and not to the Sheriff onely according to the Statute Also there it is held if the Obligation hath not the Conditions expressed in the Statute That it is not the Deed of the party ex quo sequitur that he ought to conclude not his Deed keeping without dammage shall be intended by the generalty for all things Treasons Felonies Accounts and for all times if another thing is added by the Statute to be given it shall make all void as if a Condition be made according to the Statute and hath another thing not according to the Obligation is void So to add other words in a Formedon or Writ of Waste which are given by Statute all is void So to alien all the Land when he hath licence for part the licence is void in all by the Statute of 32. H. 8. because he hath exceeded the Authority thereby given to him The Statute saith That the Sheriff shall let persons mentioned therein to bail upon reasonable surety of sufficient persons in the plural number and because there is but one surety here the Obligation is void Also because the Statute saith That if it shall be taken in any other manner then is contained in the Statute if shall be void Also here by Plowden yet taken by one at large by the words of the first branch and those aid then third branch every person which extends to those at large nor for any person in their Ward which extends only to prisoners Kidwelly against Brand.

The Lessor cannot punish him because the entry was first with his assent and when the Lease ended he was Tenant at sufferance but he may make a Lease to another and it determines his will by Gawdy it is not good Void here shall be expounded void by Entry as W. 2. cap. 1. before fol. 82. Finis ipsojure sit nullus viz. to the right yet it is a discontinuance So by 8. H. 6. cap. 10 Outlary shall be void in Indictment or Appeal if no Capias in the County where he dwelleth Common Law 19. H. 6.2 expounds it shall be void by Writ of Error he that hath a possession in Law may Lease before entry after fol. 142. after a stranger hath abated not because another hath possession in Deed. So a Lease by the Husband for years shall not be void of the Wives land after his death before entry of the Wife for possession ought to be defeated by possession and possession ought to be gained by entry Catline fol. 142. b. By the not payment the first Lease is determined without entry because it may be made by word without other circumstance otherwise of Free-hold and therefore may make a Lease but cannot have Trespass without entry as Heir before fol. 137. he may make a Lease before entry but cannot have Trespess before entry 11. H. 7.22 So a Lessee may grant his Term before it commence 22. E. 4.37 yet he shall not have Trespass before entry 37. H. 6.18 To shew two matters where both are effectual and answerable makes a double plea as 3. H. 6.32 Feoffment up-Condition to infeoff the Heir and averment of the Collusion in Wardship of the body So 20. H. 6.7 Seisen in his Ancestor and himself by avowing So 22. H. 6.37 Two continuall claims viz. by the predecessor and the Plaintiff for to avoid a discent So 19. E. 4.4 by Vavisor and Brian Two discents in Fee bars not two discents is not double in Tail because one answer viz. he gave not makes an end of all for if he cannot shew one thing without the other it is not double nor if the one is pursuant to the other as fully administred and so nothing in his hands for the last is but a conclusion of the former But the other Justices held the aforesaid two exceptions effectual for the causes aforesaid and that the Rejoynder was vicious wherefore they said That it was in vain to argue them and therefore in consideration of them onely without respect to the other matters rising upon the Rejoynder and before debate they awarded for the plaintiff Throgmorton against Tracie M. Mar in the Common Plaes second deliverance A Man makes a Lease for life and after Grants the Reversion of the Land habendum the land at Michaelmas after the determination of the first Lease for life for one and twenty years and adjudged a good Lease for years of the Reversion and of the Land Reverting and that the Habendum stood well with the premises because that the land is the degree and state of the Grantor was included in the premises by the word Reversion and the degree and estate excluded by the Habendum and the other part onely granted viz. The land Reverting and so was the intent of both the parties Reversion is compounded of the remnant of the estate which is left in the Lessor and of the land Reverting and carties with him the land to be afterwards happening in possession and the land is the substance of both and by the grant of this both pass So the Mannor which is compounded of Demeasnes and Services and of stegno aqua priscarie 4. E. 3. or gurgite which consists of water and land The Habendum which is not pursuant to the premises is void as a grant of a Mannor Habendum a Rent parcell of the Mannor because in the grant it was Rent service and in the Habendum it is Rent Seck So a Grant of Services Homage Fealty and rent Habendum the rent to the Grantee in Fee this habendum is void because in the grant the rent was contained as a rent Service but here it is rent Seck Grant of it after the death of I. S. void for the nature of a Grant is that the thing Granted ought to pass presently after fol. 155. for it is a thing in possession and is granted as a Reversion where no Reversion was of it If one maketh a Lease of land for years and after maketh a feoffment of the same without livery it passeth not the Reversion by Attornment Quere because the Grant of a thing which includes all interests in it shall make the Reversion to pass but the Reversion granted shall not make the possession to pass 38. H. 6.34 and after fol. 399. The King Grants a Mannor to which an Advowson is appendant for life the Advowson passeth not nor if he grant the Reversion Habondum cum advocatione it passeth not because in gross because it was not mentioned in the first Grant but the Reversion of an Advowson may be parcel or appendant of or to a Mannor in possession not possession of or to the Reversion of a Mannor the Habendum passes not a thing not parcel nor appendant
Court of a Steward is a disseisen of his Fee For the doing of matter of labour is a claime of the Commodity for his paines So an Executor which hath a Terme devised to him upon Condition that he pay 10 l. to a Stranger payes the 10 l. this is consent and execution of the Legacy So the educating of the Children here determines her Election that she taketh the Terme as a Legacy and her grant after reproves it not but argues her inconstancy If a Termer be indebted to one in a hundred pounds and maketh his Will and by it devise his Terme to his Sonne and leaves assets to pay the debt the Executor cannot sell the Terme to pay the debt but shall pay it with the assets that he hath in his hands Adjudged because he ought to perform all the Will scilicet Debts and Legacies if there are assets If the Executor disagree in Deed to a Legacy certain this shall be presently in the second Devisee of this bequest of a thing incertain to the Executor as of 20 l. and the Testator oweth 40 l. and dies having Plate Oxen Horses of every of them to the value of 20 l. this is not executed untill 40 l. paid for he may Alien which of them he will and the others have no remedy if there be no more assetts and may pay and carve to himself before any other as it is in 12. H. 4.21 because he is neerest to himself And therefore the Execution of the Terme devised here shall not be hindered by the not payment of the Legacies to others nor Lease given to his Executor ought to be sold and then in Legacies it is reason that Executor shall have preferment A gift to his Executor of all his goods for performance of his Will is no devise and a void gift because the Law giveth them without these words As if a Man devise in Fee his Land to his Son and Heire it is voyd because he shall have it without the devise by discent So for to prescribe for to distrain for Rent service voyd because he may distrain without prescription A devise of Fee tayle to his Heire is good because it is another Estate then he should have by discent So here the Estate devised to the Wife which is but percell of the Estate scilicet during the Nonage of the Heire is good because severed from that which the Law would have given to him and the Clause for educating his Children is not a thing Testamentory nor Legecy to the Children but is an intent annexed to the devise made to the Wife by which she by her entry hath the Estate devised to her as Legatory And the Execution to the Wife is also to the Son because a devise although the Estates are severall and is of the same effect as if her Estate had bin devised to another with the Remainder to her Son and agreement or assent shall not be apportioned as attornment by Tenant for life to the Grantee of the Reversion for life extends to him in Remainder So notice given by Tenant for life to the Lord shall serve to him in Remainder in Fee to compell the Lord to avow upon him after the death of the Tenant for life So Rent accepted by an Infant at full age of his Lessee for yeares hath made good the Remiander over An Intruder cannot gain such Possession against the King upon which he may maintain an Action of Trespasse because the King may punish him 19. E. 4.2 and be shall not be doubly punished but against the Lessee of the King one may gain such Possession that he may punish a Stranger trespassor yet he shall not gain no Estate from the Crowne for the Freehold which irremoveablely rests in the Crowne And the King shall not alleadge Intrusion with a continuando but divers dayes vicibus because he gaineth not any Possession by wrong scilicet by the Intiusion against the King Walsinghams Case H. 15.

El. between Conway and Moulton that tenant in tayl shall not forfeit any thing First That the Feoffment of tenant in tayl had not discontinued nor devested the estate of fee in Reversion out of the King because it is but a matter in Deed which is tortious otherwise it is of a rightfull matter of Record as a Recovery upon a good title or rightfull matter in Deed as a Remitter or Condition performed As Alienee of tenant in tayle of the gist of a common person infeoffs the King by Deed inrolled which regives to the first tenant in tayle which dyes the issue euters it is a Remitter and therefore the Reversion in fee is devested out of the King and restored to the first doner because a former right matter in Deed and in Law concurr together So Lessee for life to have fee if he doth such an act after the Lessor grants by Deed inrolled the Reversion to the King the Lessee for life performes the Condition which is older then the title of the King this older title matter in Deed and operation in Law thereupon shall take the Reversion out of the King without other Suit or Circumstance because bound with the Condition and the fee simple ought to vest in him at the same instant that he performes the Condition or never But no tortious act as Disseisen Intrusion c. may take the Reversion out of the King Secondly That by the Feoffment he hath not given the fee determinable because he had it not nor an estate for life of the Feoffee but onely an estate for his owne life and so the Reversion in tayle continues in him which shall be forfeit by the Attainder and by consequence the estate of the Feoffee determines by the death of the Feoffor but the Feoffee hath an estate for the life of the Feoffor discendable and his heire shall be a speciall occupant of this estate in base fee simple Thirdly That the King shall have the estate tayle in point of Reverter for that he had the pure fee before and two fees of one thing cannot be together in one person otherwise in severall persons and then the King shall have the Land discharged of the estate tayle and by consequence of all estates charges and incumbrances derived out of it as Leases warranted by the Statute and then the laving in the Statute for a thing before determined is void as of a Lease voidable made by such tenant in tayle which the issue hath made good by the acceptance of the rent and after of the estate tayle Escheated for Treason or is determined for default of issue So that the King hath in point of Reverter there the Release shall be void and he hath nothing by the saving of the Statute Adjudged in Austins Case otherwise it is when the King hath it in point of forfeiture as if the Reversion be to a stranger fol. 559. b.
