the Book of Entries fo 63 c. 205. d. 519. c. where this word Abatement is called in Latin Intrusio And I think it better to call it in Latin Interpositio ot Intratio per interpos ● ionem make a difference between this word and Intrusio after the death of the Tenant for life Abbot ABbot was the sovereign head or Chief of those Houses which when they stood were called Abbies and this Abbot with the Monks of the same House who were called the Covent made a Corporation Such a Sovereign of any such House shall not be charged by the Act of his Predecessor if it be not by common Seal nor for such things which come to the use of his House Also an Abbot shall not be charged for the debt of his Monk before his entry in Religion though the Creditor have an especialty thereof except it have come to the use of his House but the Executors of the Monk shall be charged therewith Look for this in the Abridgements the same Title under which you shall see that some of them were elective some presentative and how they were made Governours and their Authority And in this Title are also comprehended all other Corporations Spiritual as Prior and his Covent Friers and Canons Dean and Chapter Abettors ABettors are in divers Cases diversly taken One Kind of Abettors are they that maliciously without just cause or desert do procure others to sue false Appeals of Murther or Felony against men to the intent to trouble and grieve them and to bring them to infamy and slander Abettors in Murthers are those that command or procure counsel or comfort others to Murther And in some case Abettors shall be taken as Principals and in some case but as Accessories So in other Felonies And their presence at the deed doing and their absence makes a difference in the case There are Abettors also in Treason but they are as Principals for in Treason there are no Accessories See more in the Book called Pleas of the Crown made by the Reverend Judge Sir W.

S. who is living at the time of the Grant now by this Grant the Remainder passes from the Grantor presently yet it vests not presently nor takes hold in the Grantee that is the right Heir of J. S. but is said to be in Abeyance or as the Logicians term it in posle or in understanding and as we say in the Clouds that is in the Consideration of the Law That if J. S. die having a right Heir and living the Lessee for life then this is a good Remainder and now vests and comes to the right Heir in such sort as that he may grant forfeit or otherwise dispose the same and ceases to be any more in Abeyance for that there is one now of ability to take it because J. S. is dead and hath left a right Heir in life which could not be living J. S. for that during his life none could properly be said to be his Heir Also if a man be Patron of a Church and presents one to the same now the Fee of the Lands and Tenements pertaining to the Rectory is in the Parson But if the Parson die and the Church become void then is the Fee in Abeyance until there be a new Parson presented admitted and inducted for the Patron hath not the Fee but only the right to present and the Fee is in the Incumbent that is presented and after his death it is in no body but in Abeyance till there be a new Incumbent as is aforesaid See Litt. Lib. 3 cap. 11. fo 145. and Perkins fol. 12.

Edward the Confessor a King of this Realm before the Conquest and was grounded upon the Law of mercy and for the Love and Reverence he and others his Successors did bear unto the House of God or place of Prayer and Administration of his Word and Sacraments which we call the Church Note this Law is now changed by the Statutes 21 H 8. cap. 2. 22 H. 8. cap. 14. and 32 H. 8. cap. 12. by which it appears that he at this day shall not abjure the Realm but all his Liberty of this Realm and all his liberal and free habitations resorts and passages from all places of this Realm to one certain place in this Realm thereto limited by 32 H. 8. cap. 13. and 33 H. 8. c. 15.
