same_o woman_n and_o for_o lack_v of_o ●uch_n heir_n to_o the_o next_o kinsman_n of_o the_o say_a husband_n we_o do_v find_v that_o the_o custom_n of_o the_o manor_n be_v and_o so_o wa●_n mean_v to_o have_v be_v declare_v by_o the_o say_a article_n that_o after_o the_o death_n of_o such_o a_o woman_n such_o tenement_n shall_v disiend_v to_o the_o heir_n of_o the_o same_o husband_n according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o the_o common_a law_n and_o not_o otherwise_o and_o whereas_o by_o the_o thirteen_o article_n of_o the_o same_o indenture_n it_o be_v declare_v that_o all_o tenant_n by_o their_o custom_n may_v fell_a wood_n timber_n or_o tree_n upon_o their_o tenement_n we_o do_v not_o find_v it_o warrant_v by_o any_o roll_n or_o other_o proof_n that_o any_o tenant_n hold_v by_o free_a bench_n or_o other_o way_n for_o life_n may_v fell_v any_o wood_n timber_n or_o tree_n except_o for_o their_o necessary_a boot_n to_o be_v spend_v and_o employ_v upon_o the_o say_a tenement_n and_o therefore_o we_o hold_v it_o meet_v that_o the_o say_a article_n as_o to_o so_o much_o thereof_o as_o concern_v the_o fell_n any_o wood_n timber_n or_o tree_n to_o be_v explain_v not_o to_o extend_v but_o only_o to_o such_o tenant_n as_o have_v estate_n of_o inheritance_n and_o where_o in_o the_o same_o thirteen_o article_n of_o the_o indenture_n it_o be_v declare_v that_o every_o customary_a tenant_n may_v be●_n and_o let_v his_o land_n without_o licence_n we_o find_v the_o same_o custom_n warrant_v by_o sundry_a proof_n howbeit_o we_o find_v it_o prove_v that_o such_o lease_n be_v to_o hold_v no_o long_o then_o to_o the_o feast_n of_o st_n michael_n the_o archangel_n next_o after_o the_o death_n of_o he_o or_o she_o that_o make_v it_o and_o in_o cause_n of_o death_n to_o be_v determine_v at_o michaelmas_n after_o such_o death_n or_o by_o surrender_n or_o forfeiture_n of_o the_o estate_n in_o the_o mean_a time_n for_o what_o term_n of_o year_n soever_o the_o say_a lease_n be_v make_v and_o so_o much_o we_o hold_v meet_v to_o be_v add_v in_o the_o explaination_n of_o the_o say_a article_n and_o where_o by_o the_o twenty_o article_n of_o the_o same_o indenture_n it_o be_v declare_v how_o and_o in_o what_o sort_n the_o daughter_n of_o any_o customary_a tenant_n of_o the_o say_a manor_n aught_o to_o divide_v the_o inheritance_n of_o their_o ancestor_n we_o hold_v it_o meet_v to_o be_v add_v by_o way_n of_o explaination_n of_o the_o say_a article_n that_o in_o case_n any_o one_o or_o more_o of_o the_o say_a daughter_n of_o such_o copy-holders_n happen_v to_o die_v either_o in_o the_o life_n time_n or_o after_o the_o death_n of_o such_o copyholder_n that_o the_o heir_n or_o heir_n of_o she_o or_o they_o so_o die_v aught_o to_o have_v the_o like_a benefit_n in_o every_o respect_n for_o and_o touch_v any_o thing_n contain_v in_o the_o say_a article_n as_o the_o party_n or_o party_n die_v shall_v or_o ought_v to_o have_v have_v if_o he_o or_o they_o have_v happen_v to_o live_v and_o concern_v the_o fourteen_o and_o five_o and_o twenty_o article_n of_o the_o say_a indenture_n we_o do_v not_o find_v the_o same_o warrant_v by_o any_o proof_n nor_o do_v hold_v they_o fit_a to_o be_v coutinue_v but_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o the_o same_o shall_v be_v henceforth_o utter_o disallow_v but_o concern_v the_o rate_n of_o fine_n both_o upon_o death_n and_o surrender_n be_v the_o matter_n chief_o controvert_v between_o the_o say_a lord_n and_o tenant_n we_o find_v prove_v both_o by_o deposition_n of_o witness_n and_o by_o sundry_a copy_n and_o roll_n of_o the_o time_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o queen_n marry_o and_o queen_n elizabeth_n and_o some_o of_o ancient_a time_n that_o the_o tenant_n upon_o surrender_n use_v to_o pay_v four_o year_n rend_v for_o their_o fine_n and_o upon_o decent_a one_o year_n rend_v for_o their_o fine_n and_o in_o this_o we_o find_v a_o very_a constant_a course_n with_o little_a or_o no_o variance_n for_o threescore_o year_n now_o past_a or_o more_o until_o by_o the_o say_a indenture_n the_o fine_n upon_o surrenders_n be_v raise_v from_o four_o unto_o seven_o year_n rend_v at_o which_o rate_n they_o have_v continue_v ever_o since_o the_o make_n of_o the_o say_a indenture_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v very_o meet_v that_o the_o fine_n of_o the_o tenant_n of_o the_o say_a manor_n shall_v be_v continue_v and_o pay_v in_o certainty_n according_a to_o the_o say_a indenture_n and_o that_o no_o further_o question_n be_v hereafter_o move_v by_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o say_a manor_n that_o be_v or_o shall_v be_v concern_v the_o say_a point_n of_o incertainty_n of_o fine_a after_o consideration_n have_v of_o all_o which_o thing_n we_o find_v some_o difficulty_n how_o to_o compose_v the_o say_a cause_n unless_o we_o can_v settle_v some_o other_o question_v not_o mention_v in_o the_o say_a indenture_n between_o the_o say_a lord_n and_o tenant_n and_o therefore_o by_o assent_n and_o with_o the_o good_a like_n of_o all_o the_o say_a party_n we_o take_v consideration_n thereof_o also_o and_o to_o that_o purpose_n whereas_o some_o question_n have_v be_v between_o the_o say_a lord_n and_o tenant_n for_o that_o the_o lord_n claim_v to_o have_v the_o wardship_n of_o the_o say_a tenant_n heir_n be_v within_o age_n to_o his_o own_o use_n for_o as_o much_o as_o it_o appear_v to_o we_o that_o upon_o that_o point_n there_o have_v be_v a_o trial_n by_o verdict_n at_o the_o common_a law_n which_o pass_v against_o the_o lord_n we_o hold_v it_o meet_v that_o the_o lord_n for_o the_o time_n be_v be_v henceforth_o for_o ever_o exclude_v to_o have_v any_o further_a benefit_n or_o power_n by_o colour_n or_o pretence_n of_o such_o ward_n but_o only_o the_o commit_n of_o such_o heir_n to_o some_o of_o his_o near_a kindred_n by_o the_o advice_n of_o the_o homage_n for_o which_o commitment_n the_o lord_n for_o the_o time_n be_v shall_v have_v for_o a_o fine_a three_o year_n rend_v and_o no_o more_o save_v one_o year_n rend_v more_o which_o the_o lord_n be_v also_o to_o have_v in_o every_o such_o cause_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o dissent_n to_o the_o heir_n and_o if_o any_o land_n shall_v afterward_o defend_v to_o such_o heir_n during_o his_o non_fw-la age_n than_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v the_o like_a fine_a and_o fine_n in_o every_o respect_n according_a to_o the_o rent_n of_o the_o land_n so_o new_o descend_v as_o he_o have_v or_o shall_v have_v upon_o the_o first_o commitment_n and_o whereas_o there_o be_v within_o the_o say_a manor_n sundry_a land_n call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o demeasue_v land_n which_o we_o find_v have_v be_v time_n out_o of_o mind_n accustom_v to_o pass_v by_o copy_n and_o nevertheless_o because_o they_o be_v call_v demeasue_v the_o lord_n have_v of_o late_o make_v question_n whether_o they_o be_v grantable_a by_o copy_n or_o not_o a_o thing_n in_o our_o opinion_n of_o small_a weight_n to_o shake_v the_o validity_n of_o a_o thing_n so_o long_o continue_v and_o there_o also_o within_o the_o say_a manor_n certain_a land_n call_v chantry-land_n which_o be_v but_o of_o small_a quantity_n and_o lie_v intermix_v among_o the_o copy-holds_a of_o the_o say_a manor_n have_v of_o long_a time_n be_v grant_v by_o copy_n of_o court_n roll._n and_o there_o be_v also_o a_o certain_a ground_n call_v wickerige-hill_n which_o the_o lord_n pretend_v have_v be_v parcel_n of_o the_o waste_n of_o the_o say_a manor_n but_o we_o find_v that_o by_o long_o continue_v usage_n the_o tenant_n have_v enjoy_v several_a parcel_n thereof_o as_o part_v of_o their_o tenement_n which_o they_o hold_v by_o copy_n we_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v meet_v that_o the_o same_o demeasue-land_n and_o chantry-land_n shall_v be_v account_v and_o enjoy_v as_o copyhold_n by_o the_o respective_a owner_n thereof_o and_o that_o the_o say_a parcel_n of_o wickerige-hill_n shall_v be_v for_o ever_o here_o after_o likewise_o enjoy_v by_o the_o respective_a owner_n and_o possessor_n thereof_o in_o like_a sort_n as_o now_o it_o be_v without_o further_a claim_n let_v or_o interruption_n of_o the_o say_v henry_n jernegan_n or_o of_o any_o other_o that_o shall_v be_v lord_n of_o the_o say_a manor_n save_v that_o the_o lord_n may_v put_v in_o his_o cattle_n there_o as_o a_o commoner_n at_o all_o time_n when_o the_o same_o ground_n shall_v lie_v fall_v or_o otherwise_o open_a to_o the_o waste_n next_o adjoin_v thereunto_o and_o whereas_o their_o be_v another_o question_n between_o the_o say_a lord_n and_o tenant_n touch_v the_o fine_n to_o be_v pay_v to_o the_o lord_n upon_o any_o exchange_n of_o any_o land_n to_o be_v make_v among_o the_o tenant_n we_o find_v that_o the_o say_v tenant_n have_v
