verdict in the case by which it is helped Ierman Iustice said there is only an implication to shew in what Parish the lands lie and that is not a violent implication neither and therefore the Declaration cannot be good But Roll Chief Iustice answered What if the Plaintif had only said that the tithes belonged unto him And it is here after a verdict and the Declaration is helped by it Declaration but if you had demurred to the Declaration it would have been ruled to be naught Demurrer And if the tithes do belong to the Plaintif why may it not be implyed that they belong to him as Parson of the Parish and are of lands lying within the Parish But let us see a Book and speak to it again the next Term.
