nevertheless with several Annuities for Life 40 l. per Annum whereof is still in being Roger the Father being dead the said Roger the Petitioner being in Possession limited the Premisses in Jointure to Elizabeth his Wife but it being doubtfull whether such Power to Roger the Petitioner be sufficient and good in Law as was intended by his Father It is therefore prayed an Act may pass to confirm and make good that Power to him and his Brothers when in possession successively Reasons humbly offered for passing the Bill First for that it appears by the Settlement and Will the Father intended the Sons successively should have power to make such Jointure Secondly for that Elizabeth the Wife of the Petitioner brought a Fortune of 7000 l. into the Family Thirdly for that they have Five Sons and a Daughter living and the Eldest Son will have besides the Mannour of Westbury so intended for the Jointure of the Wife an Estate of 1500 l. per Annum which is now and hath been ever since the Petitioner's Father's Death in Trustees hands for raising of Portions for the Brothers and Sisters of the Petitioner Fourthly unless the Petitioner can make a Jointure according to his Father's Intention out of Westbury he will be disabled from making any Provision for his younger Children the rest of his Estate except 150 l. per Annum being entailed upon his Eldest Son Fifthly for that the Petitioner was forced to settle the said 150 l. per Annum and his Wives Estate in Houses and Land worth about 200 l. per Annum which is intended for the younger Children for a Collateral security that his Wife should enjoy her said Jointure until an Act of Parliament could be obtained to confirm the same and unless such Act be obtained the Collateral security cannot be discharged so that the younger Children cannot have any thing during their Mothers Life
