To the READER READER WHEN I considered what great care our Parliament had taken of the publick good in enacting our Laws to be translateâ— into English theâ—â— which certainly nothing more equall that the people might in some measure instruct themselves in that to which they are bound to obedience and of which by the Law it selfe they cannot nor must not plead ignorance And when I had likewise considered the excellent and most usefull Law that is contained in this little volume called Petty Brock I thought it a labour servicable to the publick to Translate it which I here present you in your own Language make use of it and you will finde Magnum in parvo great benefit in this little work and I doubt not give him thanks for it who is ambitious of nothing more then to be yours and the Common-wealths most Faithfull Servant Jo MARCH THE TABLE Abridgment page 1 DAmages increased after issue and verdict upon it page 1 Costs ibid Acceptance Lease of a Tennant for life is void by his death 1 Void and voidable Lease diversity 2 Acceptance by the issue in Taile of the second Lessee ibid Privity ibid Diversity ibid Apportionment ibid Acceptance by him in remainder ibid Acceptance by the successor of a Bishop ibid Payment at another place 3 Action Popular 3 Within the yeer ibid Action upon the Case 3 Mill 4 Where an Action upon the Case lies where not diversity ibid Delivery of goods traversed in detinue ibid Negat Pregnans ibid Action upon the Case for calling a man perjured ibid Action upon the Case for caling him perjured and justification in it ibid Of his own wrong 5 Bar in an Action upon the Case by Law wager in det ibid Plea to avoid double charge ib Travers ibid Action upon the Case upon finding of goods 6 Evidence ibid Action upon the Case upon a devenerunt to the hands of the defendant ibid Evidence ib Place in an Action upon the Case Assumpsit is not local 7 Place in det is not traversable ib Action upon the Case against executors ib Not guilty a good plea in an Action upon the Case and where not 8 Hiis similia in an Action upon the Case ib Action upon the Case upon trover ib The conversion to use traversed ib Evidence ib Action upon the Case for not payment of marriage money 9 Action upon the Statute His freehold no plea in an Action upon the statute ib Upon the statute of 5.
