S. as of his Mannor of C. by Fealty rent suit of Court of I. S. And that within the said Mannor the Custom was That the Lord of the Mannor time out of mind c. after the death of every Tenant of any Messuage or Tenements of the said Mannor dying seised used to seise the best Beast of the Tenants found within the Mannor for an Heriot and if the Tenant had no Beast or if it were esloyned out of the Mannor before the Lord seized it Then the Lord had used to seise the best Beast Levant and Couchant upon the Messuage Lands and Tenements It was demurred upon the Custom and it was adjudged that the Custome was void and unreasonable and Judged for the Plaintiff 57. An Infant by his Prochin Amy brought a Scire facias to execute a Plea by Fine limited to his Grandmother The Defendant prayed that the Attainder might demur Resolved it should not But if the Defendant had pleaded the Deed of the Ancestour of the Infant in Barre there the Plea should have stayed 3 Eliz. Austin and Bakers Case 58. Attaint was brought into the Common Pleas upon the Statute of 23 E. 3. cap. 3. against the Executors of I. S. and the Terre Tenants and adjudged it was well brought although the Statute is that the Attaint shall be between the Parties of the first Judgement 59.

Judgement being against two upon an Avowry in Replevin They brought an Attaint depending which one of them dyed It was adjudged that the Writ should abate and it differs from the Case of Nonsuit for the Nonsuit is the Judgement of the Court that the Heir may proceed in Suit but when one is dead it is not so for then no act is done by the Court. 61. Note It was resolved That after a Verdict given it is no Plea for to say that the Jurors did eat and drink mean between the Court and their Verdict given but such Exception ought to be before the Verdict given 62. A Lease for years the Remainder for Life the Reversion in Fee Lessee for years committed Waste he in Remainder for Life dyed It was holden by the Justices That he in the Reversion in Fee should have an Action of Waste for waste done before the death of him in the Remainder because that the mean Remainder was the Cause that he could not have the Action at the first but when that Estate is ended the Action is maintenable because it was to the dis-inheritance of him in the Remainder in Fee 63. Tenant in Dower had power to cut down the Trees growing upon the Land and she covenanted with him in the Reversion that it should be lawfull for him every year to cut down 20. Trees and afterwards she cut down and destroyed all the Trees It was the opinion of the Justices That an Action of Covenant did lye against her and it was agreed by them That if a Covenant be that it shall be lawfull for the Covenantee to take the Trees and sell them or imploy them to his own use That in that Case the Covenantor cannot cut down the Trees because he hath given a propriety in the Trees to the Covenantee Mich 2 Eliz. 64. Trespass The Case was A man made a Lease for years of Lands a Stranger entred upon the Land let and cut down Trees growing and made them Tymber and carryed unto the Land where the Trespass is supposed and then gave the Timber to the Plaintiff and the Defendant entred into the Land and took the Timber It was the opinion of the Justices That in all Cases where a thing is taken wrongfully and altered in form If yet that which remains is the Principal part of the Substance the Notice of it is not lost and therefore if a man takes Trees and makes Boards of them The Owner may retake them quia major pars substantiae remanet and so in the principal Case But if an House had been made of the Timber there it had been otherwise 65. Father and Son made a Feofment in Fee with VVarranty the Father dyed The Feoffee impleaded brought a Warrantia Chartae against the Son unde Chartam Patris sui habet cujus haeres ipse est and in his Count shewed the Deed was made by them both It was the Opinion of the Justices the Count was agreeable to the VVrit and that the VVarranty against the Son was double the one of his Father the other of himself and that each of them warranted the whole so the Action well brought 66. Resolved by the Justices If Lessee for Life makes a Lease for years and afterwards purchaseth the Reversion and dyeth within the Term the Lease for years is determined But if one who hath nothing in the Lands makes a Lease for years and afterwards purchaseth the Lands and dyes if it be by Indenture his Heir is estopped to avoid the Lease 67. Two Copartners are one grants her Part and warrants that the Grantee shall have and hold it in common without partition It is a void Warranty because it is against Law 68. A Lease was made to Husband and VVife for years Provided that if the possession of the Lands came to the hands of any ther than the Husband and VVife and their Issues then upon tender of 100 l. it shall be lawful for the Lessor to reenter the Husband dyed the Wife took an other Husband the Lessor tendred the 1000 l. It was the greater opinion of the Justices That the Condition was not broken because that the second Husband was not possessed by vertue of the Lease but in the right of his Wife But the Court doubted of it It was adjourned 68. A Capias ad satisfaciend was awarded and an Extent and between the date of the Writ and before the Sheriff took the Inquisition the Defendant sold his Goods It was the Opinion of the Justices That the Sheriff might extend the Goods which were sold and it was said That if the Tenant in a Precipe allien after the date of the Writ and before the Retorn yet he continnes Tenant to the Action 69. Note it was holden by the Justices That if an Infant for Monies by Indentures bargain and sells Lands and afterwards levyes a Fine Sur Conusans de droit with Proclamations the Indenture is not void but voidable and
day and at the time of the delivery there was not any Day written in the Deed but a space for it and that after the Delivery the Plaintiff put in a Day and so Non est factum It was conceived the Plea had been better to have set forth the special matter per quod scriptum praedict perdidit effectum and Judgement if Action 85. Lands were given to Husband and VVife in tayle The Husband by Fine and Deed inrolled aliened the Land and dyed Resolved That the VVife might enter by the Statute of 32 H. 8. although the words are Of Tenements being the Inheritance or Freehold of the Wife And it was holden That by the Entry of the VVife the Inheritance of the Heir should thereby be recontinued 86. A man made a Feoffment to divers persons that they should infeoffe the Son of the Feoffor and his Wife in tail the remaynder to the right Heirs of the Feoffor who made the estate accordingly and the Son dyed It was Resolved the same was a Joynture within the Statute of 27 H. 3. cap. 10. for although she did not clayme it by the Ancestor himself but by his Feoffâ—rs yet because the Feoffes derive their Estate from the Ancestors of the Husband it is within the Statute But if he had bargained and sold the same upon trust to make the Joynture it had not been within the Statute 87. Resolved That an Action upon the Case doth not lye for calling one Adulterer because that is not punishable at the Common Law but in the Spiritual Court 88. Two Joynt tenants make partition by word and for equality of the partition one assignes to the other a Rent It is void if he hath not a Deed of it 89. In a Praecipe quod reddat at the Nisi Prius the Tenant made default and Petit Cap. returned at which day he in the Reversion prayed to be Received and was so received by the Rule of the Court notwithstanding he did not require it at the Nisi Prius 2. By the Equity of the Statute of West 2. he in the remainder shall be received upon the default of the Tenant for life although the words of the Statutes be ad quos spectat reversio 90. Resolved by the Justices That the Coroner super visum Corporis cannot enquire of an Accessary after the Murder 91. Two were joyntly and severally bound in an Obligation in Debt brought the Defendent said the Plantiff recovered against the other the same Debt and had Execution and adjudged a good plea notwithstanding it was not shewed by what proces he had Execution because the Execution is on Record and shall be tryed by the Record but if he paid the monies in pais to the Plantiff and not in Court It is not an Execution of the Judgement 92. A Recordare was to remove a Plaint in Curia nostra and the plaint was in Curia Mariae Resolved that for this variance the Record was not removed for it could not be the plaint whereof c. 93. It was said If the Defendant will plead to the Writ matter apparent within the Writ he must begin his plea with Petit Judicium of the Writ but if he plead matter de hors as Joyntenancy or Nontenure c. he shall make the conclusion in such manner only and not the beginning 94. Ejectione firme Of a Lease made by the Prebendary Ecclesiae Beatae Mariae whereof the foundation was Ecclesiae Beatae Mariae de Thornton and Thornton being omitted the Leaser to make it agree entertayned the words de Thornton It was the opinion of the Justices That non est factum is no proper plea because it was once his deed but he is to shew the special matter and demand Judgment of Action vide before 95. A Rent was granted to I. S. for life the remainder to I. D. in Fee I. S. dyed the Rent was behind he in the Remainder destraind and avowd for the Rent and good for the grant was good to him in the remainder which took effect with the particular estate and so adjudged 96. One made his Will in this manner I have made a Lease for 21. years to I. S. paying but 10 s. Rent adjudged a good Lease at Will and the word I have shall be taken in the present tence 97. Replevin The Defendant avowed for a Rent charge granted to him but did not alledge any seisin of it within the years according to the Statute of 32 H. 8. Cap. 2. and yet holden good for the Statute is to be intended where seisin ought to have been alledged before at the Common Law 98. Dower The Case was The Husband made his Will thereby devised all his Lands to his Wife the now demandment during her Widdowhood and dyed the Wife entred by force of the Will and after took Husband It was the opinion of the Justices that this estate devised being as great an Estate for her life and her acceptance of it she not being Compellable to Marry was in the nature of a Joynter to her and a good barre of her Dower 99. Note by the Justices If a man seised of a Rent charge be bounden in a Statute and Execution be sued upon it the Rent shall be extended in Execution and yet the Statute de Mercatoribus speaks only of the Goods and Lands of the debtour and doth not speak of Tenements or other things 100. I. S. Tenant in tail by Indenture upon Consideration of Marriage Covenants to stand seised to his own use for life and after his death to the use of his Son and heir apparant Resolved there is no change of the use but only during the life of the Tenant in tail 101. A man seised of Land in the right of his Wife makes a Lease for life the remainder in Fee and afterwards he and his Wife recovers the same Land in a Writ of Entry against the Tenant for life Dyer held the Wife should be remitted and no act shall be adjudged in the Wife for the bringing the Writ shall be adjudged the sole act of the Husband and not of the Wife Quaere if she shall not be estopped by the Record 102. Note by the Justices That a Writ of Curia Claudenda lyeth of a Close which lyeth in a Field aswell as where there are 2. Messuages Courts oâ— Gardens adjoyning But after Imparlance in this Writ the Defendant shall not have the view 103. In a Quid juris Clamat after Issue joyned upon Ne dona pass at the Nisi Prius the Jury gave a privy verdict the Court being risen for the Defendant and had License to eat and drink and at another day when the Court was sitting they returned and gave an open Verdict for the Plantiff Resolved That Judgement should be entred for the Plantiff for the last Verdict which is given openly in Court is the Verdict in fact and not the first and the eating and drinking of the Jurours before the second Verdict given doth not
his Heirs A scire fac issued against the Heir and Terre Tenants who made default and Judgment was given against the Heir aswell of his own proper Land as of those which he had by discent It was said by Cook that although the Heir upon default shall be charged above his Assets but that was where a man bound him and his Heirs in the Recognizance but here the Heir should not be charged because the words of the Recognizance are no obligation against the Heir but only upon the Land and therefor he prayed contribution against the other Feoffes The Court refused to grant it and said that one purchasor shall have contribution against another but the Heir shall not have it but shall be in the same degree as his Ancestors was Bantings Case 288. In Trespas the Case was John Banting contracted himself to Agnes A. after Agnes was Maried to F. and Cohabited with him Banting sued Agnes in the Court of Audience and proved the Contracts and sentence was there pronounced that she should Marry the said Banting and Cohabit with him which she did and they had Issue Charles Banting and the Father dyed It was argued by the Civilians that the Marriage betwixt Banting and Agnes was void and that Charles was a Bastard But it was Resolved by the Justices that Charles the Issue of Banting was Legitimate and no Bastard 289. The Case was Lessee for years assigned the Terme to the Wife of the Lessor and a stranger and afterward the Lessor bargained and sold for Mony by deed Inrolled the stranger dyed the the Wife claimed to have the residue of the Terme not expired Whether by the Bargain and sale the Terme of the Wife was extinct or not was the Question it was said it was not but Contrary if the Husband had made a Feoffment in Fee with Livery Quaere the Case was not Resolved Vide Plowdens Commentary Amy Townsends Case Treshams Case 290. Tenant in Capite made gift in tail to I. S. upon condition that if he aliened that it should be Lawfull for him to enter I. S. aliened Tenant in Tale entred for the Condition broken It was adjudged That a Fine for the Alienation of the Tenant in Tail was due to the Queen and that the Queen might charge the Lands in whose hands so ever they came for this Fine and the duty was not discharged by the entry of the Tenant in Tail for the Condition broken but the Tenant of the Land was Chargeable for the same 291. Debt against an Executor for 100 l. in C. B. Afterwards Debt was brought against the same Executor for 100 l. in B. R. in which he confessed the Action and pleaded the same to the first Action and that he had fully administred all but the said 100 l. The Court inclined to be of opinion that the plea was not good but that the Executor was chargeable to the first Judgment Quaere because not Resolved 292. A. for mony sold to B. all the Butter which should be made of his Cowes in a year and when he had made Butter he sold the same to C. C. paid his money and set his mark upon the Barrells and left them in the Custody of A. and afterwards A. delivered them to B. the first vendee C. brought a Replevin and B. claimed the property in the Butter by the first sale It was said that the property of it was in C. for the first Contract betwixt A. and B. was but a Covenant and agreement that A should sell the butter when it should be made for before that he could not sell it and before the making of it there was no property in it and so no contract and the second alienation was a change of the property and so B. hath no remedy for it but his Action upon the Case against A. Quaere not Resolved The Earl of Huntington and Lord Mountjoyes Case 293. The Lord Mountjoy bargained and sold Lands by deed enrolled Proviso that it is Covenanted granted and agreed that it shall be Lawfull for I. S. who was a stranger to dig in the Lands for Mynes It was adjudged in this Case that although the word Proviso absolutely taken be a Condition yet when it is coupled with other Words subsequent It shall be construed to be a Covenant and not a Condition Crocook and Whites Case 294. Debt upon an Obligation the condition was That if the Defendant Warrant and defend an Oxgange of Land to the Plaintiff against I. S. and all others that then c. It was Resolved the word defend shall be taken and shall not imply any other sense but a defense against Lawfull Titles and not against Trespasses and this Case was put by Anderson Chief Justice If one Covenants to make a Lease of all his Lands in D. and in D. he hath aswell Copyhold Land as Freehold Land he is not by the Covenant to make a Lease of the Copyhold Land for that he cannot Lawfully Lease without License and the for the Law shall construe the Covenant to be of Lands dimiseable and not of other Lands Roberts Case 295. The Bishop of Batb and Wells granted to King E. 6. by Deed enrolled all his Farmes and Hereditaments of W. in W. in the County of S. Habend to the King and his Heirs and in W. the Bishop had a Rectory which extended into the County of D. It was holden in this Case that the word Farme did not include the Rectory without a special averment that the same was in Lease before but the word Hereditament was sufficient to passe the Rectory 296. A Statute is Continued during the Will of the King It was Resolved that the Demise of the King had determined his Will 297. Note it was Resolved by the Justices that if Lands are devised to 2. men and to the Child with which the Wife of the Devisor is ensient It is a good Devise and the Child shall take by the Devise but if he shall be Joynt or Tenant in Common with the other Quaere Grises Case 298.

It was agreed by the Justices in this Case that if Lessee for years during his Terme set up Posts for out-doores and hangs doores upon them by Engines that he cannot take them away at the end of the Terme but otherwise they conceived if it be of Indoors within the house Mollineux Case 301. A. bound himself in an Obligation upon condition that if he did pay to the Obligee the sum of 20 l. within 40. dayes after his personal
being at Rome and his Return into England that the Obligation should be void In debt brought the Defendant pleaded and tendred Issue that the Obligor never was at Rome It was said by the Justices That where the condition contains matter not triable the condition is void but where the matter is parcell tryable parcel not that the Condition is good But in this Case the Justices doubted of it because 2. things are Coupled by a Conjunction so as they cannot be severed otherwise if they were mentioned in the Disjunctive 302. A man was Arraigned and Condemned of Felony and Imprisoned for it in Newgate and an Execution out of the Exchequer at the suit of a comon person was delivered to the Sheriff against him who served it upon him It was the opinion of all the Barons that the Sheriffs might choose to serve the Executon or not because the King had an Interest in the body of the person Imprisoned but if they do serve the Execution notwithstanding the pardon yet it is good by which it appeareth that the Attainder shall not extinct the debts of other Subjects but that if the Attainder be purged by a Pardon the Execution of all other duties are revived and stand good for the parties 303. A man made a Feoffment in Fee reserving Rent Suit of Court and Relief and by the deed granted that if the Feoffee his Heirs or assignes should be destrained for other services then are reserved in the deed that then it should be Lawfull for the Feoffee his Heirs and Assignes to distrain in his Mannor of D and keep the distresse till he was satisfied the damage of so much as he had sustained by the distresse The Feoffee made a Feoffment over It was Resolved that in such Case the second Feoffee might Destrain because it was a Covenant which ranne with the Lands 304. Words for calling the Plaintiff a Caterpiller for he liveth by Robbing of his Guests he being an Inholder Adjudge the words not Actionable otherwise if he say He is a Caterpiller and liveth by Robbing in the High way 305. Resolved that an Action upon the Case lyeth for calling an Attorney a Common Barretor It was Colborns Case 306. Note it was Resolved by the Justices that for a Common Nusans done in via Regia as for making a ditch in it so as he cannot passe the way with his Cart and Carriages an Action upon the Case will not lye without shewing some particular injury thereby done to his person for that he is thereby no more endamaged then the Kings other Subjects but such Offence is to be presented in the Leet being a Common Neusans and not punishable by a private Action but where there is to him a particular damage 307. Debt upon Obligation the Condition was if the Obligor his Excecutors or Assignes do pay to the Obligee 10 l. within 3. Moneths next after his Arrival from Rome the said Obligee proving the same by Testimonial or other Witnesses that then c. the Defendant said that the Plaintiff had not made proof that he was at Rome the Plaintiff shewed a Testimonial under the seals of several great Persons living at Rome that he was there It was Resolved in this Case that the proof might be by Witnesses or Testimonial and it is no Mischief for if the Testimonial be Counterfeit he may take Issue upon it that it is not a true Testimoniall James Case 308. A man seised of Lands in Fee took a Lease for years of a stranger by deed Indented of his own Land the Terme expired and the stranger entred and the other brough Trespas Resolved by all the Justices that it should be an estoppel against the Lessee but only during the Terme Linsâ—is Case 309. It was Resolved in this Case That an Action upon the Case doth not lye for calling the Plaintiff a Common Extortioner unlesse it be averred that the Plaintiff was an Officer for that none can be a Common Extortioner unlesse he be an Officer 310. An Action was brought for speaking these words viz. Thoâ— meaning such an one art a perjured man and a procurer of perjury and many the like words tending to that purpose The Court said that the Action did not lye for the words if they were not spoken directly and in the affirmative and an Action doth not lye for words by circumstance tending to slander Manxells Case 311. A man made a Feoffment in Fee of his Lands and bound himself in an Obligation that he and his Son would do all Acts devised by the Obligee The Obligee devised a Deed of Release the Father delivered it as his deed but the Son did not deliver it but because hâ— was unlearned he required the Obligee to read it unto him and refused to seal and deliver it where Debt was brought against the Fâ—ther It was Resolved that the Son was bound to deliver it at his peril because the Father had bound himself that his Son should do it and that Debt did well lye against the Father his Son not sealing and delivering the Release 312. Diverse persons brought one Joynt Quare Impedit and in the Declaration they varied upon the title It was adjudged that the Writ should abate for the Judgment ought to be according to the Writ unlesse there be Summons and severance and upon diverse titles a joynt Judgement cannot be given because there is but one Lawfull title 313. Note It was holden by the Justices That an Attaint did not lye upon a verdict given in a Rediâ—â—eisin before the Sheriff and Coroners notwithstanding the Register fol. 20. is that Attaint doth Lie 314 The Lord licensed his Copyholder to make a Lease of Copyhold for 21. years to begin at Mich. following the Copyholder made a Lease accordingly by Indenture and also before Mich. by deed made another Lease to another for 21. years to begin also at Mich. following Anderson Chief Justice said the making of the second Lease was a forfeiture Hide and Neuports Case 315.

Husband and Wife brought an Action upon the Case against the Defendant and his Wife because the Defendants Wife said that the Wife of the Plaintiff had procured one to Murder I. S. It was adjudgeâ— that the Action did well lye and it was said that where one said to another that he layed wait in the Highway to Rob him that the Action did lye for the slander though nothing succeeded upon it 317. In false Imprisonment the Defendant said at the time of the Imprisonment he was Sheriff of the County of W. and Justified by reason of a Capias directed to him to arrest the Plaintiff the Plaintiff said the Defendant was not Sheriff but one I. S. It was adjudged against the Plantiff for the Court said That all things which he did as Sheriff were
nostra Regia suscipimus in protectionem nostram Regiam corpus terras bona de Warren Et nolumus quod inquiratur neque quod Praerogativa nostra arguatur The Protection was disallowed by the Court and it was said That the Prerogative of the King which tends to the prejudice of the Subject is not allowble Baldwine and Cooks Case 359.

Debt upon Obligation The condition was That if the Defendant within a Month after the decease of his Mother pay to I. S. 20. l. or 20. Kyne at the Election of I. S. that then the Obligation should be void The Defendant pleaded that the Plantiff did not shew to him his Election which of the things he would have within the month Resolved that he ought to have shewed his Election to the Defendant within convenient time before the expiration of the month for it shall be against Reason that the Defendant shall be charged to make provision of both things 361. The Case was T. B. recovered in a Quare Impedit and before he had Execution he was Out-lawed The Queen brought a Scire facias to execute the Judgment It was resolved that the Scire facias to execute the Judgment was well brought and there was priviledge enough to sue execution of the Judgment because the thing as it was in the Plantiff is in the Queen and that is a thing in action and therefore it cannot be a thing in possession in the Queen and so she is not to present but is to prosecute the Execuâ—ion of the Judgment 362. Note where an Obligation was taken with a Condition that he should not exercise the Art and Mystery of a Black-Smith within such a Town Resolved the Obligation was void and the Condition a Condition against the Law Mascalls Case 363. A. leased an house to B. for years B. covenanted to repair the house and that it should be lawfull for A. his Heirs and Assignes to enter into the House and see in what Reparations it stood and if upon view any default should be found and thereof warning be given to B. his Executors c. then within four months after such warning it should be amended A. granted the Reversion over to C. in Fee who upon view gave warning to B. which upon warning was not repaired upon which C. as Assigne of A. brought Covenant it was said the Action did not lye because the house became ruinous before his interest in the Reversion Resolved the Action did well lye for it is not conceived upon the ruinous Estate of the house but for the not repairing within the time appointed and so it is not material at what time the house became ruinous Caines Case 364. C. and his Wife being Joynt-Tenants the Husband alone was impleaded and made default the Wife prayed to be received it was the opinion of the Court she was not receivable because she was no Party to the first Writ Then he prayed that he in reversion might be received It was said he was receivable because but one of the Tenants for life was impleaded The opinion of the Court that he should be received and might plead the Joynt-Tenancy in abatement of the Demandants Writ Purfreys Case 365.

H. 8. was the Question the Case is argued but not resolved 366. Note by Anderson Chief Justice there is a difference between general words infamous given to a private person and when to a publique Officer or Magistrate for a private person is not slandered without a particular Infamy but by general words a Magistrate or Officer may be slandered Wherefore Resolved that these words spoken of a private person were not actionable viz. Thou shouldst have sit on the Pillory if thou hadst thy desert The Lord Wentworths Case 367. The Case was The Lord Wentworth procured a Grant of the Wardship of Withypoll from the Master of the Wards Attorney and Auditor and dyed The Lord Wentworth his Son procured a Bill assigned and upon it Letters Pattents within four months to be made to him which Letters Pattents were to this effect That the Queen had granted to him Custodiam haeredis terrae de Withypoll Proviso that if the said Withypoll shall die within age not married nor the effect of his marriage taken that then the said Lord Wentworth the Son should have the Ward and marriage of his Heir at the end of his Letters Pattent there was a general Non obstante of all Statutes Restrictions c. The Lord agreed with Withypoll for his Wardship and in consideration of 400. l. to him paid did release to him the Wardship and gave liberty to him to marry at his pleasure Proviso if he did not pay 1200. l. at a certain day the Grant should be void before which day Withypoll died his Brother being his Heir within age and the Lord Wentworth sued to have the Wardship of him by his Letters Pattents There were four points in the Case 1. If the Patent be persuant to the Statute of 32. H. 8. of Erection of the Court of Wards 2.

A man was bound in Covenant and Obligation upon it to pay to the three daughters of a Stranger 10. l. a piece at their several ages of 21. years the party lying sick made his Will and in performance of the
one saith he hath Title or Interest to anothers Land an action doth not lye although he hath no Title but when he saith that another hath Title he cannot salve the same by applying the same to himself for his Justification Shaw and Thompsons Case 536. A Woman recovered Dower of a Copyhold within the Mannor and 40 l. damages because her Husband dyed seised and she brought Debt for the damages in B. R. adjudged it did not lye because the Court Baron could not hold plea not award Execution of 40 l. damages although the damages were there well assessed Huntbage and Shepheards Case 537. The Issue in an Ejectione firme was if Jemet the Wife of the Defendant was alive at the time The Jury found Julian the Wife of the Defendant was alive It was the opinnion of the Justices they cannot be intended one person without finding that by the Custome of the Country Weomen baptized by the name of Julian had been called Jemet Stile and Buts Case 538. Trespas for carrying away Clay the Defendant Justified by a Prescription as a Tenant of the Mannor but because the Clay was digged by another and not by the Tenant the Justification was ruled not to be good Doggerell and Pokâ—s Case 539. Covenant upon an Apprentiship the Defendant pleaded a By-law in London where he was Apprentice by the Common Councell That if any Freeman takes to Apprentice the Son of an Alien the Bonds and Covenants should be void It was adjudged no plea for that the Common Councel cannot make the Bonds and Covenants void but may Impose a Fine upon the Master for taking such an Apprentice Bab and Clerks Case 540. False Imprisonment the Defendat Justified That the Borough of St. Albans had authority by Charter to make By-lawes and they made a By-law That if any Burgesses give opprobrious words to the Major he should be Imprisoned of the Major at his pleasure and that he being Major sent an Officer to the Defendant being a Burgesse to come to the Common Hall for the affairs of the Town and he sent him this Answer Let the Major come to me if he will for I will not come to him Adjudged the Justification was not good that the By-law was not Lawfull and that the words were not opprobrious words Reynold and Purchowes Case 541. Assumpsit where the Plaintiff had recovered 4 l. against the Defendant in Consideration the Plaintiff had given him 3 l. he promised to acknowledge satisfaction and had not done it It was said it was no Consideration to pay that to him which is due The Court held the Consideration good because speedy payment will excuse and prevent travail and expense of Suit Gregory and Blasfields Case 542. Error of a Judgment in Ludlow upon the Statute of 4 and 5 Mar. for weaving of wollen Cloathes It was assigned that the Statute of 5 Eliz. had abrogated that Statute The Court said the Statute of 5 Eliz. had not abrogated it but encreased the penalty But because the Suit was there by Bill or plaint but ought not to be but by Writ or Information the Judgment there was Erroneous 543. The Custome of a Mannor was layed to be That if a Copyholder hath 2. Sons and a Wife and dyes and the eldest Son hath Issue and dyeth in the life of the Wife the younger Son shall have the Land The Issue being upon the Custome The Jury found the Custome That the younger Son shall have the Land unlesse the eldest was admitted in his life and paid the Lords Fine The Court held the verdict to be insufficient to prove the Issue Walter and Dawes Case 544. Assumpsit upon a promise to pay 20 l. yearly for 10. years to the Testator of the Plaintiff in consideration the Testator had granted him the Office of the Clerk of the Fines in the Counties of B. C. and Glamorgan The Defendant pleaded he did not exercise the said Office and the Venire was awarded in the County of Worcester It was adjudged against the Plaintiff because there they cannot take Notice of the Issue Necton and the Wardens of Wexchandlers Case 545. The Plaintiff sued a Prohibition against the Defendant upon Libell exhibited by them for a Legacy given to them by the Testator of the Plaintiff The Plaintiff surmised that there were divers Obligations for monies depending and Suits But in Conclusion the Defendants had a Consultation upon security to repay the Legacies to be there recovered by them if any things were Recovered by the Excecutors upon the Obligations Vide this case more largely Reported in Cr. 3. part 467. Wright and Major and Commonalty of Wickhams Case 546. Error was brought to reverse a Fine viz. that the Ancestor dyed mean between the Teste and the Return of the Writ of Covenant The Defendant pleaded that after the death of the Father the Plaintiff entred into parcell of the Land and made a Feoffment It was the opinion of the Court that he was barred by his entry and Feoffment of part upon the difference If a man hath an Action to Land if he suspend or extinguish it in part it is extinct in the whole but if he hath right to Land he may Release or suspend it in part and remain good for the Residue and upon this point the Judgment was reversed Welshes Case 547. Note It is the same case with the case of Attonwood Reported at Large in Cook 1. p. of his Reports upon the points there more largely debated and adjudged and therefore I have forborn here to abridge it I shall mention this case put by Pirriam Justice viz. If Tenant in tail be the remainder in tail the remainder to the Queen and Tenant in tail commits Treason and the Queen makes a Lease and the Tenant in tail dyeth without Issue and afterwards he in the Remainder dyeth without Issue that this Lease shall continue good upon the Reversion Lord Darcies Case 548. Quo Warranto for using a liberty to be exempt of Purveyance The Defendant pleaded that King Edward 4 granted to the Dean and Cannons of St. Pauls and their successors the said liberty within all their Lands and averres that they were seised of the Land in which at the time of the Grant and that afterwards the said Lands came to Edw. 6. who granted the same to his Grandfather and his Heirs with a Clause de tanta talia consimilia libertates c. quae quot qualia quanta the Dean and Canons or their predecessors ever had by reason of any Charter Grant of any of the Progenitors of the said King with a general non obstante aliquo Statuto c. It was Replyed that 27 H. 8. it was enacted by Parliament that the Kings Purveyors should execute their Commission in all places aswell within Liberties as without any Charter c. notwithstanding The Court was of opinion for the Queen because at the time of the Grant of tot tanta talia libertates the
Administratrix of W T. her Husband and that W. T. by his Bill such a day c. promised for him and his Executor to deliver to the Plaintiff 5000. Tyles before the Feast of All-Saints and to pay to the Plaintiff tantum quantum incrementuÌ„ and gaines which the Defendant should receive of the said Tyles for a year and averred the said W. T. received of the gaines 8 l. and that the Defendant in consideration the Plaintiff would suffer the Defendant to take and have the sole and only Administration of the goods of her Husband and give her day for the payment as well of the 8 l. as of the 5000. Tyles promised to pay the mony and deliver the Tyles upon request all which the Plaintiff did and yet the Defendant had not performed her promise Judgment upon Nihil dicit against the Defendant Error was brought it was adjudged that the consideration was insufficient because by the Law the Administration was to be counted to the Wife and it doth not appear that the Plaintiff had any Administration committed to him or that he exhibited any Caveat into the Spiritual Cour to hinder the Wife of the Administration and as to the giving day of payment that was not good because the Defendant was not his debtor nor chargeable in Law to pay him and for these causes the Judgment was reversed Hog and Blocks Case 898. Assumpsit The Defendant was indebted to the Plaintiff 10 l. and in consideration the Plaintiff would not sue him for the said 10 l. he promised to deliver to the Plaintiff 14. Quarters of Barley upon request Issue was joyned the Clerk of the Assizes returned the Postea and therein put John Puckering before a Serjeant which was omitted which was assigned for Error but the Court held it no Error and the Judgment was affirmed Levine Vanvive and Michael Vanvies Case 899. Debt upon Obligation to perform the award of A. and B. of for and upon all Actions and other Demands whatsoever had stirred depending having been between the parties till the date of the Obligation The Arbitrators awarded the Defendant should deliver to the Plaintiff before the last day of June next six Kentish cloaths which were battered by I. S. for the thred of the said Levine Issue was upon the deliver of the cloaths and found for the Plaintiff Error brought and assigned the arbitrament was of a thing out of the Submission It was adjudged it was within the Submission and the party was tied to the performance of it The Judgment was affirmed The Lord Mordant and Bridges Case 900. Action upon the case for these words viz. The Lord Mordant did know that Proud robbed Shotbolt and at such time as Proue should be arraignes therefore be willed Bridges to compound with Shotbolt for the same Robbery and told Bridges he would see him satisfied therefore if it cost him 100 l. It was found for the Plaintiff and damages a 1000 l. and the Lord Mordant had Execution by elegiâ— of the Lands of Bridges Bridges died the Administrator broughâ— Error in the Exchequer Chamber the Lord pleaded in abatement oâ— the Writ of Error his Execution by elegit and so the Administraton could not have Error Resolved the Writ of Error did lie for the Administrator because it might be the Land might be evicted and then the Plaintiff might resort to the Goods 2. It was assigned foâ— Error that words were not actionable in themselves for it waâ— said that one may compound for a Robbery knowing of it but noâ— for the Felony and the words are not to compound for the Felony Also it was said that it doth not appear in the Declaration that thâ— Lord was a Justice of Peace at the time of these words spoken tâ— Bridges although he was at the time that Bridges spake the words oâ— him in the Declaration upon the Writ of Error it doth not appeâ—â— if the words were actionable or not for it doth not appear in the boâ—â— that the Judgment in B. R. which was given for the Lord was affirmed or Reversed ideo quaere Callard and Callards Case 801. Ejectione firmae in B. R. The Case was E. C. seised of Lands in Fee in consideration of Marriage of Eustace his Son and Heir apparent being upon the Land spake these words to Eustace viz. Stand forth Eustace I do here reserving an Estate for my own and my Wives Life give unto thee and to thine Heirs for ever these my Lands and Barton of S. And afterwards he enfeoffed R. his younger Son in Fee with Warranty and died Eustace entred and demised to the Plaintiff It was there holden that the words did amount to a Feoffment and Livery being spoken upon the Land and the use to be to the Feoffor and his wife for their Lives and after to Eustace and his Heirs upon that Judgment Error was brought in the Exchequer Chamber and there the former Judgment was reversed for that the greater part of the Justices agreed that it was not any Feoffment executed because the intent was repugnant to Law to pass an Estate Eustace reserving any particular estate to himself and his wife and an use it could not be for the purpose was not to raise but use but by an Estate executed which took not effect and they all agreed if it was an use it could not rise upon natural affection without a Deed. The Judgment was reversed Westby Skinner and Catchers Case 902 A. was in Execution severally under the Sheriffs of London at the Suits of B. and C. the old Sheriffs delivered the body of A. by Indenture in which the Execution of B. was only mentioned and the other was omitted A. in the time of the new Sheriffs escaped It was adjudged in B. R. that the old Sheriffs should be charged in an Action for the Escape They brought Error in the Exchequer Chamber and the Judgment was affirmed because it was not found that the new Sheriffs were Sheriffs at the time of the delivery of A. to them and because they did not give notice to the new Sheriffs of all the Executions which were against A. Sacksord and Phillips Case 903. Assumpsit A. was endebted to the Plaintiff 460 l. the Defendant in consideration the Plaintiff would forbear to sue A. for the said Debt promised to the Plaintiff to pay it before Michaelmas next Upon non assumpsit it was found for the Plaintiff But in the postea the Verdict was not certified that the Plaintiff sustained damage by reason of the not performance of the promise for 460 l. for which the Plaintiff had judgment That was assigned for Error and also because the Declaration did not mention the forbearance of Suit at the Defendants request the Court ordered the postea to be amended and affirmed the Judgment Wiseman and Jennings Case 904. The case upon the matter in Law was this Tenant for Life the Remainder in tail the Remainder in Fee Tenant for Life suffered a common Recovery
Debt against Executors upon Obligation of 200 l. they pleaded a Recovery by a stranger of 200 l. upon another Obligation and averred it was a just and true Debt ultra which they had not in their hands the Plaintiff said the Recovery was by Covin It was adjudged in B. R for the Plaintiff Error brought and the Judgment reversed for it could not be by Covin if it was a just Debt and the Replication should have been absque hoc it was a just and true Debt Morses and Rosses Case 935. Assumpsit In consideration the Plaintiff would surcease his Suit which he had in Chancery against the Defendant the Defendant promised to save him harmlesse from all actions which should be brought against him for or Concerning a Lease which the Defendant had assigned to him and alledged he surceased his Suit and that a Stranger had brought an action against him in B. R. by reason of the said Lease and the Defendant did not save him harmlesse Judgment being for the Plaintiff in B. R. It was reversed because he did not shew the certainty of the Action brought against him nor that it was for any matter in esse at the time of the promise Wood and Bukleys Case 936. Action upon the Case whereas Wood exhibited his Bill against Buckley in Star Chamber containing he had nusselled Pirats Murtherers and other Malefactors he being a Justice of Peace and Vice-Admiral Wood afterwards in another place having speech with divers concerning as well of the ill carriage of the said Buckley as of the matter in his Bill against Buckley in the Star Chamber said I will Justify every matter therein to be true The Defendant Justified the speaking of the words being examined upon the truth of his Bill before I. S. and I. D. by Command of the Councell and traversed that he spake them at any other place or time upon demur being adjudged for the Plaintiff upon Error brought the Judgment was reversed because no action lying for the exhibiting of the Bill no action lay for saying the words of his Bill were true Sir Henry Berkley and Earle of Pembrooks Case 937. Action upon the Case by the Earl of Pembroke against Sir Henry Berkley and shewed he was seised of the Mannor of S. to which the Office of the Keeper of the Forrest of F. did appertain in Fee and to have omnia bona forfeited within the Forrest fugam facere bis per annum quicquid de hujusmodi fugatione accidere possit and to have Hony Wax mortuum boscum c. appertaining to his Office and the Defendant disturbed him to exercise the said Office The Defendant pleaded a Deed in Tail in Bar made by the Plaintiff In the Deed there was a Proviso viz. Provided alwayes and the said Sir Henry Berkley doth Covenant for him and the Heirs males of his body to and with the said Earl and his Heirs to preserve the game as far as commonly hath been used and that he nor his Heirs males shall cut or sell any woods there except for browse and necessary reparations and the Plaintiff said the Defendant had cut down four Oakes and converted them to his own use and averred they were not for browse nor reparations and that he entred for the forfeiture It was adjudged upon a demur in B. R. for the Plaintiff Error was brought upon the Exchequer Chamber upon the matter in Law that the Proviso was not a Condition but a Covenant but as to that point it was Resolved by all the Justices that the Proviso was a Condition 2. Error was that the damages were assessed entirely for divers things some of them being uncertainly and insufficiently alledged for he prescribed to have omnia bona forisfacta which could not be without Charter also to have de furgatione quicquid acciderit which was also uncertain and also the damages for them ought to have been severally assessed and not entirely The Court held that for that Cause the Judgment was erroneous and for that Cause only the Judgment was reversed Reymer and Grimstones Case 938. Assumpsit In Consideration he at the Defendants request had promised to wash the Defendants linnen and the linnen of his Servants and to provide meat and drink for the Defendant and his Servants the Defendant promised to pay so much money to the Plaintiff when he should require it so as it should not exceed the proportion used in O. for the like time and further declared that in Consideration the Defendant upon accompt between them made was in arrerage to the Plaintiff 18 l. the Defendant promised to pay him the said 18 l. and the Plaintiff shewed for how long time he had washed the Cloathes c. and that he required 8 l. which did not exceed the proportion in O. upon Non Assumpsit found for the Plaintiff and damages severally assessed for the Costs entirely Error was thereupon brought it was the opinion that the first Assumpsit was good and the second void and the Judgment given for the damages and Costs upon the first Assumpsit was good and the Judgment for them affirmed but for the damages assessed upon the second Assumpsit and for the damages de incremento entirely give for both the Judgment was reversed Goodall and Wyatts Case 939. In Ejectione firme The Case was A. made a Feoffment of Lands to B. in Fee upon Condition if A. paid within a year after the death of the Feoffee to his Heirs Executors or Administrators 100 l. that the Feoffment should be void B. made a Feoffment over to C. and dyed and afterwards within the year it was agreed betwixt A. and the Administrator of the Feoffee that the said A. should pay to the Administrator the 100 l. and that the Administrator should repay back all to A. the Feoffee but only 32 l. which was done accordingly and then A. entred into the Lands pretending the Condition was performed it was adjudged in B. R. that his entry was not Lawfull and that this fraudulent and Covenous payment was no performance of the Condition and upon a Writ of Error brought in the Exchequer Chamber all the Justices a greed that the Judgment given in B. R. should be affirmed Vitsey and Fermours Case 940. The King granted Manerium de H. in Parochia de R. omnia terras decimas haereditamenta sua in R A. in the tenur of I. S nec non omnia alia terras tenementa haereditamenta in R praedict ' It was adjudged in B. R. that the Tythes in H. which was a Town within the Parish of R. did passe But upon Errour brought the Judgment was reversed because R. praedict shall be intended R. the Town and not R. the Parish Adams and Dixons Case 941. Assumpsit the Plaintiff was Bail for I. S. in B. R. the Defendant in Consideration that he should pay him the Condemnation promised to deliver to him the Bond made for the principal Debt and a letter of
this case that if S. had died and no other was instituted by the Patron but the Church remained void that the King might Present otherwise it had been if the Patron had presented a new Parson to the Church before the King presented Pym and Gorwins Case 1165. It was Resolved by the Justices in this case that one cannt prescribe for a Seat in the body of the Church for that the Seats there are disposable by the Parson and Churchwardens but for a Seat in an Isle of the Church a man may prescribe because it may be presumed that he or his Ancestors who had house and lands within the Parish had edified and built the said Isle and so it was said it was adjudged in the Lady Grays case Norris and the Hundred of Gawtrys Case 1166. Debt against the Hundred upon a Robbery 9. Octob. 13 Jac. the Teste of the original was 9 Octob. 14 Jac. It was said the Action was not brought within the year for there is but one ninth of October within the year It was the opinion of the Justices that in this case a Fraction of a day should be by devision of time in a day viz. the Robbery committed 9 Oct. 13. post meridiem is within the year of the bringing of the Writ 9 Octob. 14 Jac. in the morning Vide Ludford and Grettons Case Plowd Com. 491. Dawks and Hills Case 1167. Upon an Information upon the Statute of 5 E. 6. an Ingrosser of Chattel justified for a certain number of Chattel and sold upon two several Licenses without distinction how much upon the one and how much upon the other and upon a Demurrer it was adjudged for the Plaintiff Middleton and Lawtes Case 1168. Two Patrons pretended title to present the one presented and the Bishop refused his Clerk He sued in the Audience and had an Inhibition to the Bishop and after there he obtained Institution and Induction by the Arch-Bishop Afterwards the inferior Bishop instituted and inducted the Clerk of the other for which Process issued out of the Audience against him he upon that prayed a Prohibition and a Prohibition was awarded as to the Incumbency because the Ecclesiastical Courts have not to meddle with Institution and Induction for that would determine the Incumbency which is tryable at the Common Law Stewkley and Butlers Case 1169. In Trespass the case was A. seised of the Mannor of D. made a Lease of the Scite and Demeans to the Defendant for three Lives except all Tymber-trees and covenanted that his Lessee should take all Woods Afterwards the Lessor bargained and sold to the Lessee all those the Trees Woods and Under-woods growing within the Mannor viz. within the Grounds called A. B. and C. Habendum una cum omnibus aliis arboribus within the Mannor which may conveniently be spared and the Bargainor covenanted that it should be lawful for the Barganee at all times within five years to enter and cut the Trees and Woods and convert them to their own uses In this case it was Resolved 1. That the Viz. was void for a Viz. may explaine or distribute a thing precedent but not restrain it 2. Resolved that the una cum aliis arboribus in the Habendum should make a new Grant of the other Trees 3. Resolved that the words which followed the una cum cest ' una cum omnibus arboribus within the Mannor which could be spared was void for the uncertainty and there is no means agreed betwixt the parties here to reduce the same to a certainty 4. Resolved that the Covenant of the Bargainor that it should be lawfull for the Bargainee to take the Trees and Woods within five years was not a Condition but a meer Covenant and the difference was taken where one sells all his Trees to be taken within 5 years after there the Vendee shall not take them after 5 years ended but if the time of taking of them be by way of Covenant there it shall not restraine the party to take them at all times as well after the five years as within the five years but the parties are to have their remedy by an Action of Covenant upon the disturbance Yet it was said by Hatton that if one grants his Corn growing and the Grantee doth not take it in convenient time so as the Grantor receive detriment thereby the Grantor shall have Action upon the case against him Hansons Case 1170. He was cast over the Bar because he gave direction in writing to an Under-Sheriff what persons he would have him return upon a Pannel for tryal of an Issue and named others who he would not have to be retorned Kingswell and Crawleys Case 1171.

N. who made a Lease to the Plaintiff for Life absque hoc that he had the estate of I. S. Resolved that the Traverse was void for after the Statute of 21 H. 8. the party is to avow upon the Land and then it is not material what Estate the Tenant had so he occupied the Land but before the said Statute it had bin a good Plea so as the Statute hath changed the Law for the Traverse in pleading although there is not any word of it in the Statute Andrews and the Bishop of Yorks Case 1172. It was Resolved that is a good Plea in an Assize of Darrien Presentment that the Plaintiff hath a Quare Impedit depending the same avoidance 1173. Words viz. He hath stollen my coâ—n out of my Barns Adjudged per curiam the words were actionable Hall and Wingfields Case 1173. The Defendant acknowledged a Recognizance before the Lord Hobart at Serjeants-Inn in Fleet-street London which Recognizance was enrolled in the Court of common Pleas The Plaintiff brought debt upon this Recognizance in the Common Pleas and layed his Action in London Whether it ought to be brought in Middlesex where the Record of the Judgment was or in London was the Question The Justices were divided in several opinions Winâ—h it ought to be in Middlesex where it is enrolled because the Debt is consummate Warberton it may be in any County where the party pleaseth Hutton it lieth where the Record is Hobert if no mention had bin made upon the Inrollment of the Recognizance before the Chief Justice at Serjeants Inn it ought to have bin brought in Middlesex but now it was in the Election of the Plaintiff to bring it either in London or Middlesex vide this case more at large Hob.
