Heir in England or to have one My third and last Reason is indeed more general tho' not so conclusive as the two former were upon the particular Reason of the Case tho' not altogether to be neglected viz. The Law of England which is the only ground and must be the only measure of the incapacity of an Alien and of those consequential results that arise from it hath been always very gentle in the construction of the disability and rather contracting than extending it so severely For Instance The Statute de natis ultra Mare 25 E. 3. declares that the Issue born beyond Sea of an English Man upon an English Woman shall be a Denizen yet the construction hath been tho' an English Merchant marries a Foreigner and hath Issue by her beyond the Sea that Issue is a natural born Subject In 16 Cro. Car. in the Dutchy Bacons Case per omnes Justic ' Angl ' And accordingly it hath been more than once Resolved in my Remembrance Pround's Case of Rent The Case of the Postnati commonly called Calvin's Case the Report is grounded upon this gentle Interpretation of the Law tho' there were very witty Reasons urged to the contrary and surely if ever there were reason for a gentle Construction even in the Case in question it concerns us to be guided by such an Interpretation since the Vnion of the two Kingdoms by which many perthance very Considerable and Noble Families of a Scottish Extract may be concerned in the consequence of this Question both in England and Ireland that enjoy their Inheritances in peace I spare to mention particulars So far therefore as the parallel Cases of Attainder warrant this extent of this Ability I shall not dispute but further than that I dare not extend Now as touching the Authorities that favour my Opinion I shall not mention them because they have been fully Repeated and the later Authorities in this very Case are not in my Iudgment to be neglected Touching the Case of Godfrey and Dixon it is true it doth differ from the Case in question and in that the Father was made a Denizen and then had Issue a younger Son who inherited the elder Son an Alien born but Naturalized after the death of his Father yet there is to be observed in that Case either the Naturalization of the elder Son relates to his Birth or relates only to the Time of his Naturalization whether it did relate or not depends upon the words of the Act of Naturalization which I have not seen If it did relate the Cause in effect will be no more but an Alien hath Issue a Natural born Son for so he is as I have Argued by his Naturalization and then is made a Denizen and hath Issue and dies the elder Son purchaseth Lands and dies without Issue the younger Son shall inherit the elder should not have inherited his Father by reason of the Incapacity of the Father But it doth not relate further than the Time of his Naturalization which was after the time of the Death of his Father and consequently he could not divest the Heirship of his younger Brother yet if he purchaseth and dies without Issue his younger Brother shall inherit him tho' there was never Inheritable Blood between the elder Son and his Father so much as in fiction or relation Vpon the whole Case I conclude First That there be two Brochers Natural born in England the Sons of an Alien the one shall inherit the other Secondly That the Naturalization puts them in the same Condition as if born here tho' it does not more Thirdly That John the Son of George stands in the same Condition of inheriting his Vncle the Earl as George should have done had he survived the Earl Fourthly But if the Disability of Robert the Father had disabled the Brothers to have inherited one the other the Naturalization of the Earl or George had not removed that Disability Fifthly But no such Disability of the Father doth disable the Brother George to inherit the Earl it neither doth Consequentially disable John the Son of George to inherit the Earl Consequently as to the Point referred to our Iudgment John the Son of George is Inheritable to the Land of John his Vncle.

TRin. 20 Car. 2. Rot. 719. A Custom that Lands should descend always to the Heirs Males viz To the Males in the Collateral Line excluding Females in the Lineal was held good Which it was said was allowed anciently in the Marches of Scotland in order to the Defence of the Realm which was there most to be looked to tho' it is said in Davis's Reports That the Custom of Gavelkind which was pretended in Ireland and Wales to divide only between Males was naught But the former Custom was adjudged good in this Court Hill 18 Car. 2. Rot. 718. Foot versus Berkly BErkly had Iudgment in an Ejectment in Communi Banco and Execution of his Damages and Costs Foot brings Error and the Judgment is affirmed Whereupon Berkly prays his Costs for his delay and charges but could not have them For no Costs were in such case at the Common Law and the Statute of 3 H. 7. cap. 10. gives them only where Error is brought in delay of Execution so 19 H. 7. cap. 20. And here tho' he had not Execution of the Term yet he had it of his Costs If one hath Iudgment in a Formedon in Remainder and before Execution the Tenant brings Error the Judgment is affirmed yet he shall pay no Costs because none were recoverable at first 1 Cro. Ante. Weyman versus Smith A Prohibition was prayed to the Mayor and Court of Bristol Suggesting that a Plaint was Entred there for 66 l and that the Cause of Action arose in London and not in Bristol and so out of their Iurisdiction Note An Affidavit was also made thereof and this is upon Westm cap. 35. and so is F.N.B. 45. Vnless the party pleading in Bar or Imparling admits the Iurisdiction of the Court 2 Inst Tarlour and Rous versus Parner AN Account brought by the Plaintiffs as Churchwardens against the Defendant the former Churchwarden for a Bell c. The Defendant pleads That it lacked mending and that by the Assent of the Parishioners it was delivered to a Bell Founder who kept it until he should be paid To which the Plaintiff Demurred For this Plea is no bar of the Account but a good Discharge before Auditors But it was said on the other side That the Matter pleaded shewed that the Defendant was never Accountable therefore it might be in Bar. The contrary whereof is Adjudged in the same Case in terminis 1 Rolls 121. between Methold and Wyn and so was the Opinion of the Court here But then it was alledged that the Declaration was not good for there were two Plaintiffs and yet it is quod reddat ei compotum and it is de bonis Ecclesiae whereas it should have been bonis Parochianorum For the first the Court said that it should be amended for it was the default of the Clerk But the other was doubtful For the Presidents were affirmed to be both ways but they rather inclined that the Declaration was not good for that cause Anonymus AN Indictment of Forcible Entry in unum Messuagium vel domum Mansional ' quaere if not uncertain and other Lands and Tenements tent ' ad voluntat ' Dom ' secundum consuetudinem Manerii and doth not express what Estate For which the Court held it ought to be quashed for the Statutes 8 H. 6. and R. 2. extend only to Freeholds and the Statute in King James's time to Leases for years and Copyholds And here tho' he saith at the Will of the Lord according to the Custom of the Mannor yet 't is not sufficient because he saith not by Copy of Court Roll. And it was Adjudged in 1653 in this Court that none of the Statutes extended to Tenants at Will Martyn versus Delboe IN an Assumpsit the Plaintiff Declared That he was a Merchant and the Defendant being also a Merchant was Indebted to him in 1300 l And a Communication being had between them of this Debt the Defenant promised him in Consideration thereof That he should have Share to the Value of his said Debt in a Ship of the Defendants which was then bound for the Barbadoes and that upon the Return of the Ship he would give him a true Account and pay him his proportion And sets forth That the Ship did go the said Voyage and returned to London and that after the Defendant with some other Owners had made an account of the Merchandize returned in the said Ship which amounted to 9000 l and that the Plaintiffs Share thereof came to 1700 l which he had demanded of the Defendant and he refused to pay it c. To this the Defendant pleads the Statue of Limitations and the Plaintiff Demurred Alledging that this Action was grounded upon Merchants Accounts which were excepted out of the Statute Tho' if an Action be brought for a Debt upon an Account stated between Merchants the Statute is pleadable as was Adjudged in this Court last Hillary Term between Webber and Perit yet here there being no Account ever stated between the Plaintiff and Defendant it is directly within the Statute And of that Opinion were Keeling and Rainsford But Twisden inclined otherwise because the Plaintiff declares upon an Account stated and tho' between Strangers yet he bringing his Action upon it admits it Et Adjornatur Nota Every Parish of Common Right ought to Repair the High-ways and no Agreement with any person whatever can take off this Charge which the Law lays upon them Crispe and Jackson versus The Mayor and Commonalty of Berwick IN Covenant after Verdict for the Plaintiff it was moved in Arrest of Judgment that there was a Mis-Trial the Venire being awarded to an adjoyning County Which the Court after Hearing of Arguments in it Ruled it to be well enough but one of the Plaintiffs died before the Court had delivered their Opinions It is prayed notwithstanding that Judgment might be Entred there be no default in the Plaintiffs but a delay which came by the act of the Court and that it was within the Statute of this King That the death of the Party between Verdict and Judgment should not abate the Action and that it was in the discretion of the Court whether they would take notice of the Death in this case for the Defendant hath no Day in Court to plead there being no Continuances entred after the Return of the Postea 1 Leon. 187.

Lion versus Carew THe Case was A Lease was made to two for 99 years if three Lives should so long live and this to commence after the end of a Lease for Life Reddend ' a certain yearly Rent and two Work-days in Harvest post principium inde reddend ' inde 3 l nom ' Harriotte post mortem of the Lessees or either of them and reddend ' two Capons at Christmass post

principium inde One of the Lessees died before the Lease for Life determined whereupon the Lessor brings Covenant for the 3 l and sets forth this Matter in the Declaration To which the Defendant Demurred supposing that the 3 l was not to be paid unless the Death had hapned after the Term had commenced And the Court having heard it spoken to divers times by Counsel on both sides by the Opinion of Twisden Rainsford and Moreton Iudgment was given for the Defendant For all the other Reservations but this were expresly post principium termini and Clauses in Companies are to expound one another as it is said in the Earl of Clanrickard's Case in Hobart It is in the nature of a Rent and Reservation which it is not necessary that it should be Annual And in Randall and Scories Case 1 Cro. such a Duty was distrained for and it shall attend the Reversion Rolls 457. And he that hath but an interesse termini is not to pay the Rent reserved for there is no Term nor no Reversion until it commences If A. lets to B. for 10 years and B. redemises to A. for 6 years to commence in futuro in the mean time this works no suspension of either Rent or Condition The Intention of the Parties is to be taken That it should not be paid until then However Reservations are to be taken most strongly against the Reserver As Palmer and Prowses Case cited in Suffeild's Case 10 Co. is The Reversion of a Lease for years was granted for Life reserving certain Rent cum reversio acciderit a Distress was made for the Rent arrear ever since the Grant Resolved that it was good for no more than was incurred since it fell into possession Keeling Chief Justice held strongly to the contrary For he said the words were so express in this Case that they have left no place for Construction which other Clauses or the Intention of the Parties may direct when the Expression is doubtful He took it for a Sum in gross for Distrained for it could not be being reserved upon the Death of the Lessees or either of them which was also the limitation of their Lease And that Interpretations were not to be made against the plain sense of words He relied upon Edriches Case 5 Co. where the Judges said They would not make any Construction against the express Letter of the Statute yet there was much Equity in that Case to incline them to it And he said As well as a Fine is paid upon the taking of such Lease before it begins why may not something be paid also when their Interest determines And in some Countries they call such Payments A fair Leave Miller versus Ward TRespass for breaking of his Close on the 1st of August and putting in his Cattel The Defendant Iustifies for Common which he prescribes for in this manner viz. That two years together he used to have Common there after the Corn reaped and carried away until it was sown again and the Third year to have Common for the whole year and that that Year the Plaintiff declares for the Trespass was one of the years the Field was own quod post grana messa c. he put in his Cattle absque hoc that he put them in aliter vel alio modo The Plaintiff Demurs which it was Ruled he might for the Defendant doth not answer to the Time wherein the Trespass was alledged and the Traverse will not help it for aliter vel alio modo doth not refer to the time Anonymus AN Administrator brings Debt upon an Obligation The Defendant pleads payment to himself Vpon which it was found for the Defendant Coleman prayed that he might have Costs As where an Executor brings an Action sur Trover and Conversion in his own time and found against him it was Ruled in Atkyes Case 1 Cro. that he should pay Costs and hereof his own knowledge he had no cause of Action the Money being paid to himself But the Court Resolved That there ought to be no Costs in this Case for the Action of Trover in his own time might have been brought in his own Name so it was needless to name himself Executor or Administrator but the Action here is meerly in right of the Intestate Harvey versus James AFter Verdict at the Assizes the Clerk delivered the Postea to the Attorney by whose negligent keeping it came to be eaten with Rats But the Court Examining the Clerk of Assize it appeared that he had Entred the Jurors Names Verdict and Tales in his Book and according to that the Court suffered the Verdict to be entred on Record Anonymus IN an Action of Battery against Baron and Feme the Jury find the Feme only Guilty and not the Baron It was moved in Arrest of Judgment That this Verdict was against the Plaintiff for he ought in this Case to have joyned the Baron only for conformity and he declaring of a Battery by both the Baron being acquitted he hath failed of his Action and so is Yelverton 106. in Drury and Dennys Case But here the Court gave Iudgment for the Plaintiff and said that that in Yelvetron was a strange Opinion Anonymus A Certiorari was prayed to remove an Indictment of Manslaughter out of Wales which the Court at first doubted whether they might grant in regard it could not be tryed in an English Country But an Indictment might have béen found thereof in an English County and that might be tryed by 26 H. 8. cap. 6. vid. 1 Cro. Soutley and Prices Case and Chedleys Case But it was made appear to the Court That there was a great cause to suspect Partiality if the Tryal proceeded in Wales for the Party was Bailed already by the Justices of Peace there which Twisden said it was doubtful whether they had power to do for Manslaughter They awarded a Certiorari and took Order that the Prosecutor should be bound by Recognizance to prefer an Indictment in the next English Country Collect versus Padwell IN Debt upon a Bond to perform an Award which was That one should make a Lease to another before the 21 of October which was 2 or 3 Months after the Award and that the other upon the making of the Lease should pay him 50 l The Question was Whether notice in this Case ought to be given when he would make the Lease for otherwise it was said the other must have 50 l always about him or be in danger to break the Award And it was resolved by the Court That no notice was necessary Noell versus Nelson MIch 21.

M. In Englefields Case there was no pretence to have more than to execute the Condition it ought here to have béen executed in the Life of S. M. and so it appears to be done in Englefields Case and Harding and Warners Case for I caused the Cases to be searched This is like the Case of the Statutes of 15 R. 2. cap. 5. 1 R. 3. cap. 1. 19 H. 7. cap. 15. these Statutes give the same advantage to Lords c. where persons have Uses in Lands respectively as if they had the very Lands but the Lord's c. cannot thereby claim any greater Interest than the cestuy que Uses had respectively in the Uses Now in this Case The Body of the Act and the Proviso fetch back and save the Trusts for all but S.M.

After Verdict for the Plaintiff the Judgment was entred quod recuperet the Sum pro misis custag ' instead of pro debito praed ' But this was ordered to be amended as the default of the Clerk tho' in another Term The Court having power over their own Entries and Judgments Anonymus IN an Account it was held by the Court that if a man delivers Money to his Bayliff or Factor to lay out for him in Commodities he cannot bring an Assumpsit but only his Action of Account For the Chief Justice said that he knew such an Action once brought and the Jury that were to try the Cause informed him That if they should Examine all the Accounts which were between the Plaintiff and Defendant it would take up three or four days time So that it hath been always holden that in such case he should be driven to his proper Remedy which is an Action of Account and it may be the Factor hath laid out more Mony that he received Eaton versus Barker IN an Action upon the Statute of 17 Car. nunc for residing in a place where he had formerly kept a Conventicle and demands the 40 l penalty After Verdict for the Plaintiff it was moved in Arrest of Judgment that there was no Costs or Damages given For it was said that where a Statute gave a certain Penalty if this be not paid upon demand he that sues for it shall recover his Costs and Damages as North and Wingate's Case in the 3 Cro. 559. is But the Court held that they ought not to be given in Actions Popular whether the Forfeiture be certain or not but where a certain Penalty is given to the party grieved there he shall recover his Costs and Damages 10 Co. 116. Vide postea Polexphen versus Polexphen IN a Prohibition the Case was that Henry Polexphen died Intestate Andrew his Brother gets Letters of Administration in the Inferiour Diocess One who pretended to be the Wife of H. surmizing Bona notabilia procured Administration from the Prerogative Court Andrew appeals to the Delegates and dies Henry his Son and Heir comes in and gets the Administration committed in the Prerogative Court Repealed and hath Letters granted to himself Vpon this the Wife prayed a Prohibition supposing that the Delegates could not proceed after the death of Andrew but that their Commission was determined For their Authority is by that to proceed in a Case between such parties one of which is dead To which it was Answered That the Commission is to hear and determine the Cause And both in the Civil and Ecclesiastical Law the Suit shall continue after the death of either party for those which shall be concerned as appears by the Bishop of Carlisle's Case in 2 Cro. 483. and in the 1st Leonard 117 and 178. it is said That if one party dies ante litis conrestationem then it shall abate but if after it is otherwise And there are a number of Presidents of this nature both in the Arches and Admiralty Courts c. And in this very Case Henry Polexphen having obtained Administration de bonis non of his Vncle Andrew in the Country the now Plaintiff got it set aside by the Delegates because granted while an Appeal was depending and that upon full debate before them who would yet now suggest that the Appeal was determined by the death of Andrew The Court were of Opinion that no Prohibition was to be granted and that the Delegates Authority to proceed in that case continued notwithstanding the death of Andrew For the Commission is to proceed in causis Administration c. una cum suis incidentibus vel annexis qualitercunque c. Summariè juxta Juris exigentiam So that the Ecclesiastical Law is appointed to be their Rule by the course of which a Suit doth not abate by the death of the parties And Hale said The Appeal is to the King in Chancery and it is by reason of his Original Jurisdiction and thereupon he grants a Commission to hear it Now if he could hear it in Person none could object but that he might determine the Cause after the death of the parties and by the same Reason they may to whom he hath delegated his Authority But the Attorney General coming in and desiring to be heard in it for the Plaintiff the Court gave further time Eaton versus Barker THe Case was now moved again upon the Statute for coming to a place where he had formerly Preached in a Conventicle And Exception was taken to the Declaration For that it was not averred that the Defendant was in Holy Orders For the words of the Statute are That if any one that hath been Parson Vicar Lecturer c. or within Holy Orders and have taken upon them to Preach c. But to this it was Answered that there is another Clause in the Act That all such persons as shall take upon them to Preach c. which is general and extends to all men whether in Orders or no which have been Preachers And of that Opinion were the Court.

Litt. It seems also to be stronger against the Remitter in this case because 't is not Absolute but only Conditional However the Lease may be good by Estoppel for it appears to have been by Indenture and if the Lessor cannot avoid the Lease the Lessee shall without question be subject to the Rent But it was Objected against the Estoppel that here an Interest passes and the Lease was good for a time As if the Lessee for Ten years makes a Lease for Twenty years and afterwards purchaseth the Reversion it shall bind him for no more than Ten. To which Pemberton Chief Justice said The difference is where the party that makes the Estate has a legal Estate and where a Defeasible Estate only for in the latter a Lease may work by Estoppel tho' an Interest passed so long as the Estate out of which the Lease was derived remained undefeated As to the Recovery it was held clearly good altho' a Stranger that had nothing in the Land was made Tenant to the Praecipe with the Tenant in Tail for the Recompence in Value shall go to him that lost the Estate and being a Common Assurance 't is to be favourably Expounded Et Adjornatur Termino Sancti Hillarij Anno 33 34 Car.

In Banco Regis Anonymus IN Error upon a Judgment in Ejectione Firmae in the Common Pleas where the Case was That the Bishop of London was seized injure Episcopatus of a Mannor of which the Lands in question were held and time out of mind were demised and demisable by Copy of Court Roll for Life in Possession and Reversion and J.S. being Copyholder for Life in Reversion after an Estate for Life in Ann Pitt and J.N. being seized of the Mannor by Disseisin J.S. at a Court holden for the Mannor in the name of J. N. surrendred into the Hands of the said J.N. the Disseisor Lord to the used of the said Lord. Afterwards the Bishop of London entred and avoided the Disseisin Ann Pitt died and an Ejectment was brought by J. S. And it was adjudged in the Common Bench that he had a good Title and now upon a Writ of Error in this Court the Matter in Law was insisted upon by Pollexfen for the Plaintiff in the Writ of Error That this Surrender to the Disseisor Lord to the Lords own use was good for all the Books agree a Copyholder may Surrender to a Disseisor of the Mannor to the use of a Stranger and why not to the Lords own use As if Lessee for years be ousted and he in Reversion disseised and the Lessee Releases to the Disseisor this extinguishes his Term. Here is a compleat Disseisin of the Mannor by Attornment of the Freeholders without which the Services cannot be gained and the Copyholders comeing to the Disseisors Court and by making Surrenders c. owning him for their Lords tantamounts Serjeant Maynard contra And he insisted that this Surrender was not good for the Disseisor had no Estate in this Land capable of a Surrender for the Copyholder for Life continuing in Possession and never having been ousted there could be no Disssesin of that And he endeavoured to distinguish it from a Surrender to a Disseisor Lord to the use of another for in such Surrenders the Lord is only an Instrument and does but as it were assent and until admittance the Estate is in the Surrenderer And he resembled it to the Attornment of a Tenant when è converso a Seigniory is granted and he put Cases upon Surrenders of Leases that they must be to one that hath the immediate Reversion as an under Lessee for part of the Term cannot Surrender to the first Lessor and he cited a Case of Lessee for years Remainder for Life Remainder in Fee to a Stranger he that had the Fee enfeoffed the Tenant for years by Deed and made Livery and the Conveyance held void for it could not work by Livery to the Tenant for years who was in Possession before and a Surrender it could not be because of the intermediate Estate for Life and it could not work as a Grant for want of Attornment He said it had been commonly received that a Common Recovery cannot be suffered where the Tail is expectant upon an Estate for Life not made Tenant to the Praecipe which he said was true in a Writ of Entry in the Post which are commonly used And the true reason is because such Writ supposes a Disseisin which cannot be when there is a Tenant for Life in Possession But as he said a Common Recovery in such case in a Writ of Right would be good Pemberton Chief Justice said his reason of Desseisin would overthrow Surrenders to the use of a Stranger for if the Possession of the Copyholder would preserve it from a Disseisin then was it pro tempore lopped off or severed from the Mannor and then no Surrender could be at all Et Adjornatur Berry
