a_o trial_n as_o ever_o any_o noble_a

it_o be_v pretty_a odd_o express_v for_o when_o a_o man_n be_v accuse_v of_o felony_n and_o other_o high_a treason_n it_o be_v of_o the_o death_n of_o a_o man_n unless_o he_o have_v land_n or_o tenement_n of_o the_o yearly_a value_n of_o 40_o s._n but_o i_o will_v take_v it_o as_o these_o gentleman_n do_v at_o this_o time_n it_o not_o be_v so_o at_o common-law_n nor_o in_o other_o criminal_a case_n but_o what_o be_v provide_v for_o by_o the_o statute_n as_o to_o other_o matter_n of_o felony_n and_o murder_n no_o doubt_n there_o these_o challenge_n be_v to_o be_v take_v upon_o the_o statute_n but_o not_o for_o treason_n because_o the_o statute_n of_o queen_n mary_n do_v express_o repeat_v their_o statute_n and_o no_o statute_n since_o take_v away_o the_o force_n of_o that_o of_o q._n mary_n that_o all_o trial_n for_o treason_n shall_v be_v as_o at_o the_o common-law_n and_o according_a to_o this_o the_o constant_a practice_n in_o all_o city_n not_o only_a london_n where_o person_n have_v be_v indict_v for_o high_a treason_n have_v be_v there_o be_v never_o any_o such_o thing_n pretend_v most_o of_o london_n so_o that_o the_o statute_n they_o speak_v of_o and_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o several_a other_o these_o gentleman_n have_v freehold_n but_o we_o will_v not_o have_v this_o point_n lose_v to_o the_o city_n of_o statute_n too_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n for_o we_o say_v by_o common-law_n all_o cause_n may_v be_v try_v by_o any_o person_n against_o who_o there_o be_v not_o sufficient_a cause_n of_o challenge_n and_o the_o common-law_n be_v by_o that_o statute_n restore_v in_o this_o point_n mr._n sol._n gen._n my_o lord_n i_o have_v little_a to_o say_v mr._n attorney_n have_v give_v a_o true_a answer_n to_o it_o the_o foundation_n do_v fail_v they_o it_o be_v not_o necessary_a at_o common-law_n for_o a_o juryman_n to_o have_v freehold_a but_o then_o they_o must_v show_v you_o my_o lord_n it_o be_v alter_v and_o make_v necessary_a the_o statute_n of_o h._n 5._o do_v not_o seem_v to_o extend_v to_o treason_n but_o if_o it_o do_v it_o be_v now_o out_o of_o door_n by_o that_o of_o q_o mary_n whereby_o all_o trial_n of_o treason_n be_v reduce_v to_o the_o common-law_n this_o be_v that_o we_o answer_v they_o fail_v in_o their_o foundation_n they_o do_v not_o make_v it_o out_o that_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o a_o juryman_n at_o common-law_n to_o have_v freehold_n sir_n geo._n jeff._n my_o lord_n i_o confess_v they_o have_v cite_v several_a act_n of_o parliament_n and_o upon_o they_o lay_v their_o foundation_n and_o draw_v inference_n from_o they_o but_o they_o will_v find_v that_o in_o several_a act_n of_o parliament_n which_o they_o have_v quote_v there_o be_v a_o particular_a regard_n have_v for_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o constant_a usage_n and_o custom_n for_o trial_n within_o the_o city_n of_o london_n that_o notwithstanding_o several_a act_n of_o parliament_n have_v in_o other_o place_n ascertain_v the_o value_n of_o juror_n yet_o they_o have_v still_o a_o eye_n that_o the_o city_n of_o london_n shall_v continue_v in_o its_o usage_n i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n of_o the_o case_n of_o the_o city_n of_o worcester_n it_o will_v be_v very_o hard_a say_v they_o because_o a_o attaint_n do_v not_o lie_v in_o criminal_a matter_n if_o you_o intend_v by_o that_o to_o have_v people_n of_o ability_n it_o be_v well_o know_v that_o the_o able_a people_n in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n have_v scarce_o any_o freehold_n in_o it_o for_o that_o most_o of_o the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o city_n of_o london_n remain_v in_o the_o nobility_n and_o in_o corporation_n now_o in_o the_o case_n of_o my_o lord_n russel_n he_o have_v a_o peremptory_a challenge_n to_o 35_o and_o i_o think_v i_o may_v adventure_v to_o say_v there_o can_v scarce_o be_v 35_o more_o that_o can_v call_v themselves_o freeholders_n in_o london_n consider_v the_o consequence_n then_o treason_n shall_v be_v commit_v in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n and_o there_o will_v not_o be_v enough_o in_o the_o city_n of_o london_n to_o try_v it_o in_o the_o case_n of_o the_o quo-warranto_a bring_v against_o the_o city_n of_o worcester_n to_o know_v by_o what_o warrant_v several_a take_v upon_o they_o the_o office_n of_o alderman_n the_o gentleman_n at_o the_o bar_n object_v that_o it_o be_v reasonable_a that_o no_o freehold_a shall_v be_v determine_v but_o by_o freeholders_n but_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o kings-bench_n the_o court_n be_v full_a for_o the_o necessity_n of_o the_o thing_n lest_o there_o may_v not_o be_v sufficient_a freeholder_n in_o the_o city_n have_v send_v one_o of_o the_o judge_n of_o that_o court_n to_o your_o lordship_n of_o the_o common-plea_n for_o that_o reason_n do_v agree_v the_o challenge_n be_v not_o good_a i_o know_v these_o gentleman_n will_v please_v to_o remember_v the_o case_n so_o that_o i_o say_v as_o in_o one_o case_n we_o ought_v to_o be_v tender_a of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o prisoner_n so_o we_o ought_v sure_o to_o be_v tender_a of_o the_o life_n of_o the_o king_n otherwise_o it_o may_v so_o happen_v that_o the_o king_n life_n may_v be_v encompass_v and_o treason_n commit_v in_o the_o city_n and_o there_o will_v be_v no_o way_n in_o the_o world_n to_o try_v it_o therefore_o we_o pray_v for_o the_o king_n the_o challenge_n may_v be_v overrule_v m._n north._n my_o lord_n it_o be_v the_o practice_n to_o make_v the_o venire_fw-la facias_fw-la without_o mention_v freehold_a for_o it_o do_v not_o command_n that_o they_o return_v so_o many_o man_n that_o have_v freehold_a but_o probos_fw-la &_o legales_fw-la homines_fw-la de_fw-la viseneto_fw-la therefore_o at_o the_o common-law_n those_o be_v good_a inquest_n to_o try_v any_o man_n that_o be_v not_o excommunicate_v nor_o under_o any_o outlaw_n it_o be_v true_a there_o be_v statute_n that_o say_v all_o juryman_n shall_v have_v freehold_a but_o we_o say_v these_o statute_n do_v not_o extend_v to_o the_o city_n of_o london_n but_o that_o it_o be_v govern_v by_o its_o own_o custom_n and_o we_o say_v it_o be_v the_o custom_n that_o citizen_n of_o ability_n have_v be_v return_v that_o have_v no_o freehold_a but_o grant_v what_o we_o do_v not_o but_o by_o way_n of_o supposal_n my_o lord_n it_o do_v not_o extend_v to_o this_o case_n because_o trial_n be_v to_o be_v according_a to_o the_o use_n at_o common-law_n by_o the_o statute_n of_o q._n marry_o which_o do_v set_v they_o at_o large_a again_o and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n the_o

common-law_n any_o good_a and_o lawful_a man_n may_v pass_v then_o take_v as_o introductive_a of_o a_o new_a law_n the_o statute_n of_o h._n 5._o i_o be_o of_o the_o mind_n that_o this_o statute_n of_o h._n 5._o peradventure_o may_v extend_v to_o treason_n and_o felony_n but_o when_o the_o statute_n of_o q._n mary_n come_v and_o say_v all_o trial_n shall_v be_v by_o such_o evidence_n and_o in_o such_o manner_n as_o by_o common_a law_n they_o ought_v to_o have_v be_v i_o do_v not_o see_v how_o it_o be_v possible_a to_o make_v a_o objection_n afterward_o of_o this_o nature_n for_o admit_v this_o act_n of_o parliament_n of_o h._n 5._o have_v alter_v the_o common_a law_n and_o give_v a_o challenge_n why_o then_o when_o the_o statute_n of_o q._n mary_n come_v and_o set_v all_o trial_n at_o large_a in_o the_o case_n of_o treason_n then_o certain_o the_o challenge_n be_v go_v again_o and_o i_o doubt_v you_o will_v not_o find_v one_o exception_n in_o this_o case_n ever_o since_o that_o statute_n concern_v the_o juries_n freehold_n in_o case_n of_o treason_n but_o it_o have_v general_o pass_v otherwise_o and_o there_o have_v not_o be_v any_o ever_o except_v i_o doubt_v it_o will_v be_v a_o very_a hard_a thing_n to_o maintain_v
