B. But because divers Presidents were shewn out of the Common Pleas from time to time since the making that Statute that damages shall be recovered by the Avowant who avowes for Amercements c. it was said that it would be very difficult to controll so many Presidents Gawdy no great credit is to be given to such Presidents as passe sub silentio without any exception taken to them Another Error was assigned because the Iudgment was to have return averiorum predictorum whereas there was but one Guelding wherefore Iudgment was reversed and the Roll markt Trin. 36 Eliz. in B.

Iudgment was given as aforesaid Pasch 36 Eliz. in B. R. Rot. 41. Leighs Case Ejectment THe Queen being seised of lands as Dutchesse of Lancaster did make a Lease thereof to the Plaintiff the Lessee is outed by A. the Plaintiff makes a Lease to B. for years and B. being outed brought an Ejectione firmae 1. It was resolved that the Queen as Dutchesse of Lancaster cannot be disseised for although she be not seised in jure Coronae yet is it in Seisin of the Queen and cannot be taken away from her in respect of her person 2. Gawdy and Fenner held that the Lessee being outed the terme is turned into a Right and therefore it hath been adjudged that an Ejectment will lye as the case is in Dyer 29 H. 8. It Tenant in taile the reversion in the King suffers a Recovery although this shall not be to the prejudice of the Kings Reversion yet shall it bar the Estate-tail So if a Parson makes a Lease for years and the Patron and Ordinary confirme it and the Parson dies and during the Vacation the Lessee is outed he is hereby outed of his terme yet is not the Frank-tenement touched Clench on the contrary That he who is outed hath an Estate but at sufferance for he cannot have an Estate for years without a Lease and it is agreed he shall not have an Estate of Freehold by reason of the Reversion in the Queen and the possession of the Lessor shall maintain the possession of the Lessee as well as the possession of the Lessee shall keep the Freehold of the Lessor and if he have but an Estate at sufferance then cannot the Lease to B. he good For if Tenant at sufferance of a common person makes a Lease for years this is a Disseisin And Popham was of opinion with Gawdy and Fenner wherefore Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff I have seen a Report 24 Eliz. in the Kings Bench upon a Demurrer between Edmund Frough and Henry Dixe where the better opinion was That if one enters on the terme of the Queen he shall not thereby gaine any possession but notwithstanding the Termor may grant over his Terme but it was agreed that he shall have an Ejectione firmae for by Plawden an Assise will lye of a Mill where the water is divers for the possession of the Mill continues in him But the Justices doubted whether it was an Ejectment wherefore the parties did compound In the 4.

Thurstons Case Ejectment GOffe brought an Ejectment against Thurston the Case was this The Abbot of Kingswold in Wiltshire being seised of Land in the 28th yeare of H. 8. did with consent of the Covent make a Lease for years by Deed indented and then the Abby came into the hands of H. 8. and from him to Edw. 6 and from him to the present Queen And it was pleaded that the Defendant hath the Lease and that Henry Thinne did intrude on the Defendant and made a Lease to the Plaintiff who being ejected by the Defendant brought this Action and on this matter the parties demurred 1. It was said that the Plaintiff cannot bring this Action inasmuch as Henry Thinne by his entry on Lessee for years the Reversion being in the Queen cannot gaine any possession so that nothing passeth by his Lease to the Plaintiff But the Court was against this for he is a sufficient Lessee to maintain an Action of Ejectment And it was adjudged in the Exchequer Chamber that the Queens Lessee for years being outed may have an Ejectione firmae which proves that he is put out of possession of his terme and this very point was in a manner agreed the last terme in the case of Norris Fenner If H. enters on the possession of the Queen and makes a Lease for years nothing doth passe and the Lessee cannot maintain an Ejectione firmae for he gains no possession at all but it is on the contrary he●e when he enters on the Queens Lessee Gawdy That is no difference for the Lessee for years of an Intrudor shall maintain at Ejectione firmae And I have seen
that the Action might be against the Husband onely because that the woman could not convert them to his own use during the Coverture but onely to the Husbands use And the opinion of the Court was that the Writ was good against them both and that the conversion was in nature of a Trespasse and so the Action would well lye Mich. 32. and 33 Eliz. Kent against Wichall IN a Trespasse Quare clausum fregit herbam conculcavit the Defendant pleaded that he tendied sufficient amends to the Plaintiff and he refused the same and demanded Iudgment c. And upon a Demurrer the opinion of the Court was that this is no plea in Trespasse but in a Replevin it is a good plea Sed non dierunt causam diversitatis 21 H. 7.30.9 H. 7.22 F.N.B. 69. G. 31 H. 4.17 Drew demanded of the Court that whereas Edmund Leusage had bound himself in an Obligation by the name of Edward Leusage if this was good or not and it seemed to the Court Quod non est factum and Anderson and Walmesley said expresly that it was void 34 H. 6.19 6. Dyer 279 21 H. 7.8 Sir John Arrundell and his Wife brought a Quare Impedit against the Bishop of Glocester and others who pleaded in Bar that William Sturton was seised of a Mannor to which the Advowson was appendant and bound himself in a Statute-merchant of two hundred pounds to one Long and the Statute was extended and conveyed the interest of the Statute to one of the Defendants and then the Church became void And by the Court the Advowson may be extended and if it become void during the Conusees Estate the Conusee may present Note it was said by the Iustices of the Common Pleas that if a man promise another that he shall have a Lease in his land for eight years or it is agreed amongst themselves that one shall have a Lease of the others land for eight yeares that is no lease of the land but onely a Contract and Agreement but if one promise another that he shall have his land for eight years or openly agree that one shall have the others land for eight years this is a good lease for eight years by force of the agreement A. came before the Major of Lincolne and acknowledged a Statute-merchant and the Seal of the Major was not put to it and it was adjudged that the Statute was not good but a man may sue upon it as an Obligation because the Seal of the party is to it Pasch 36 Eliz. IN a Waste the Case was that a Lessee for yeares purchased Trees growing upon the land and had liberty to cut them within eighty yeares and after the said Lessee purchased the inheritance of the land and devised it to his Wife for life the Remainder to the Plaintiff in see and made his Wife Executrix and died who after married with the Defendant who cuts the Trees whereupon the Action is brought And by opinion of all the Court the Action was maintainable for although the Trees were once Chattels yet by the purchase of the Inheritance they were united to the land and Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff accordingly Pasch 36 Eliz. UPon an Exigent the Sheriff returned that after Divine Service he made proclamation and did not say that there was no Sermon and therefore the Iudges held that the return was not good for by the Statute if there be a Sermon in the Church the Sheriff shall make his proclamations after the Sermon and if there be no Sermon then after Divine Service and because it did not appeare whether there were any Sermon or not the opinion of the Court was ut supra It was said that a man shall not aver against a Postea in the Kings Bench or the Common Pleas to say that it was contrary to the Verdict nor shall he be received to say that the Iudges gave a Iudgment and the Clarks have entred it contrary to their Iudgment but otherwise is it in Court Barons or other base Courts not Courts of Record 10 Ed. 3.40 35 and 36 Eliz.

That the Stile of the Court was not good for it was Curia Dominae Reginae Burgi praedict tent coram Majori de Plymmouth without saying secundum consuetudinem villae praedict and he who is Iudge of the Court ought to be either by Patent or Prescription and then for not expressing the stile of the Court nor by what authority they held their Court it is error and he cited the case in the Lord Dyer 262. and a Iudgment 30 Eliz. Rot. 32. given in the very point Another Error was that no day was prefixed for the Defendant to appear but generally ad proximam curiam which is Error although it be held every munday And for these Errors Iudgment was reversed Trin. 28 Eliz. Rot. 948. Mercer against Sparks MErcer had Iudgment to recover against Sparks in the Common Pleas upon an Action of the Case for words and Sparks brought a Writ of Error in the Kings Bench and assigned for Error that the Plaintiff did not expresse in the Declaration that the Defendant spake the words malitiose but it was adjudged that it was no Error because the words themselves were malicious and slanderous wherefore Iudgment was affirmed Savacres Case IT was adjudged in the Common Pleas that if a Baron or others mentioned in the Statute of 21 H 8. take divers Chaplaines which have many benefices and after they discharge their Chaplaines from their Service they shall retain their Benefices during their lives and if the Baron takes others to be his

Holcombe against Rawlins in B. R. Rot. 401. IN a trespass Quare Clausum fregit with a continuando from the 31 Elizab. to the 36. the Defendant pleaded that J.S. was seised in Fee and made a Lease to him c. The Plaintiff replyed that long time before J.S. was seised he himself was seised untill the said J.S. did disseise him and J.S. being so seised did make the Lease to the Defendant for years whereupon the Plaintiff reentred Tanfield It appears by the Plaintiffs Replication that the Defendant was in under the title of J.S. viz. the Lessee of the Disseisor of the Plaintif and therefore he cannot be a Trespassor to the Plaintiff notwithstanding his regress 34 H. 6 30. 37 H. 6 35. 2 Edw. 4 17. 13 H. 7.15 Atkinson contra At the Common Law the Disseisee being out of possession shall not recover any damages but only against the Disseisor and not against any other that comes to the land afterwards and for this cause the Statute of Gloceste● was made But at the Common Law when the Disseisee re-enters he is remitted as if he had not been out of possession at all and he shall have a trespass against the meane occupiers as in the 4 H. 7. A man was restored to his land by Parliament as if he had never been out of possession at all and he shall have a trespass against the occupiers that are in by title aswell as here he had against the Kings Patentee G●wdy If a Disseisor be disseised and the first disseisee enter he shall have a trespass against the second Disseisor And Popham and Fenner agreed but Clench cont But at last adjudged for the Plaintiff vid. Cook 11. Rep. fol. 57. Lyfords Case to the contrary Pasch 37. Eliza. VViseman against Baldwin in B. R. Rot. 341. IN a writ of errour to reverse a judgment given in the Common Pleas the Case was thus R●chard Baldwin did demise his land in Taile upon condition that the Devisee should pay to J.S. 20. l. and if he failed of the payment that then the land should remain to J.S. and his heires for ever and whether this be a Condition in Law that the heir shall take advantage of or a limitation of the estate so that J.S. shall take advantage was the Question Gawdy It is a limitation and not a condition as is apparent in Dyer Wilfo●ds Case 7.128 and Pewis and Scholasticas Case in the Comentaries and there is great diversity between an estate in Law and a devise in which the intent of the Devisor is to be observed and here if this shall be taken for a condition the intent of the Devisor is defrauded Clench agreed For this should be as a new devise to J.S. and not as a remainder as a devise to a Monk the remainder to J.S. the remainder is not good as a remainder but as a new devise Fenner of the same opinion and said it had been so adjudged in this Court in an Attournies Case of Devonshire and also in Sir Edward Cleeres Case Gawdy The received opinion of all learned Lawyers hath been such as hath been said viz. that to the end the intent of the Devisor should be observed it shall be a limitation Then I put this Case A man deviseth his Land to J.S. upon condition and for non-payment be devises that his Executors shall sell the Land if J.S. faile of the payment it is cleere that the Executors may sell the Land Godfrey I agree because the Executors have nothing devised to them but only an authority given them by the Will to sell Gawdy But when the Executors have sold the Vendee is in by the Devisor and then it is no other than a devise to one in Fee on condition of payment c. and if he fail then to another And the three Iustices agreed but because the Chief Iustice was absent it was adjourned to another day at which time Fenner said that he had spoken with ●…wen one of the Iustices of the Common Pleas who said he never agreed to the Iudgment but in case of a perpetuity And therefore the Iudgment in the Common Pleas was reverst The Earl of Lincolne against Fisher THe Steward of the Leete being in Court did say in Fisher who was resident within the precinct of the Leet that he must be sworn for the Queen to make presentments at the said Court. To which Fisher replyed in saying I ought to be sworn you lie For which Fisher was fined at the Court 20 l. And the Earl who had the Leet brought his action for the same Yelverton The action will not lie for he is not finable for such words for they are no disturbance to the Court nor hindrance of Iustice for this word you lie in ancient speaking is no more than to say you do not say true Gawdy agreed that the action would not lie But Fenner Clench and Popham cont For this is a misdemeanor for which the defendant is finable for every Leet is the Queens Court and a Court of Iustice to which respect and reverence ought to he given and these words are in great contempt to the Court and the authority thereof which is supreme And Posito that he should here say to the Iudge of a Court when he delivered his opinion in any Case Mr. Iudge you lie without question he may be fined and imprisoned and as it is of a Iudge here so is it of a Iudge of any inferiour Court because it is a Court of Iustice And Popham said That if any misdemeaned himself in the Leet in any outragious manner the Steward may commit him And Gaw●y changed his opinion Wherefore the Plaintiff had judgement to recover Pasch 36. Eliz. Allens Case A Scire facias issued out in the name of the Queen to shew cause why execution of a debt which is come to the Queen by the attainder of J.S. should not be had The Defendant pleaded that the Queen had granted over this debt by the name of a debt which came to her by the attainder of J.S. and all actions demands c. upon which the Plaintiff demurr'd And the question was if the Patentee might sue for this in the name of the Queen without speciall words And two presidents were cited that he may 1 Pasch 30 Eliz. rot 191. in the Exchequer where Greene to whom a debt was due was attainted and the Queen granted over this debt and all actions and demands and a ●c●re facias was sued for him in the name of the Queen also in the 32 El●z rot 219.

That a Lessee for years being in possession may take a Feoffment although it be by Deed and may take Livery after the delivery of the Deed and shall be deemed to be in by force of the Feoffment as in this case is pleaded although that the Lessee may take the Deed by way of confirmation and then the Livery is but Surplusage and void 4. It was resolved that this possibility which was in Reynald the Son to have the residue of the terme upon the inter-marriage which at the time of the Feoffment and of the Fine was but Dormant shall be accounted a former charge and before the Covenant because of the will which was before the Covenant and shall awake and have relation before the marriage As if Tenant in tail of a Rent purchaseth the Land out of which the Rent issueth and makes a Feoffment and covenants that the Land at that time is discharged of all former charges although this charge is not in esse but is in suspence as it is said 3 H. 7.12 yet if the Tenant in tail dye his Issue may distrain for this Rent and then is the Covenant broke for now it shall be accounted a former charge before the Feoffment Mich. 29 and 30 Eliz. in Com.

That he was robbed the same day alleadged in the Declaration but in another place and within another Parish then that he hath alledged in the Declaration but that both the Parishes were within the said Hundred Vpon which they prayed the Iudgment of the Court whether the Inhabitants were guilty Adjudged by the Court for the Plaintiff for it is not materiall in what Parish he was robbed so it were within the same Hundred Hil. 30 Eliz. in Com.

Spittles Case Replevin SPittle brought a Replevin against Davis the Case was this Turk being seised of Land in Fee did devise parcell thereof to his youngest Son Proviso and it is his intent that if any of his Sons or any of their Issues shall alien or demise any of the said Lands devised before they shall attain the age of thirty years that then the other shall have the Estate and does not limit any Estate And then the eldest Son made a Lease before his age of thirty years and the youngest Son enters and afterwards and before the age of thirty years he aliens the Land he entred into by reason of the limitation the elder Brother re-enters and demised to Spittle the Plaintiff for three years who put a Horse into the ground and Davis by the commandment of the younger brother entred and took the Horse Damage-feasant and Spittle brought a Replevin And upon the whose matter there was a Remainder It was resolved 1. That this is a limitation and that the Estate shall be to such use as by the Will is directed untill there be an Alienation and upon Alienation the Land shall go to the other Brother 2. When the youngest Brother hath once entred for the Alienation then is the Land discharged of all Limitations for otherwise the Land shall go and come to one and the other upon every Alienation ad infinitum wherefore all the Iudges agreed that after the one Brother hath entred by reason of the limitation the Land is then for ever discharged of the Limitation made by the Will And Iudgment was given accordingly Michaells Case Debt on a Bond THomas Michaell brought an Action of Debt on a Bond against Stockworth and Andrews the Iury gave this speciall Verdict That the said Stockworth and Andrews did seale a Bond and delivered it to the Plaintiff as their Deed and after Issue joyned and before the Nisi prius the Seale of Andrews was taken from the Bond. Shuttleworth The Plaintiff shall be barred for it is one entire Deed and the Seale of one is wanting And admit in case it goes against us the Iudgment be reversed by Writ of Error the Plaintiff can have no Action on such Bond But it was adjudged to be a good Bond and Iudgment for the Plaintiff See the like case in Dyer Trin. 36 H. 8.59 A.

Richmonds Case Debt for rent RIchmond brought an Action of Debt against Butcher the case was A man makes a Lease for years reserving Rent to him and his Executors and Assignes and during the terme the Lessor dies and his Heire who hath the Reversion brings an Action of Debt And it was urged that the Rent was incident to the Reversion and the Heire having the Reversion shall have the Rent also as incident to it as the case is in the 27 H. 8.16 If H. makes a Lease for years rendring Rent without saying any more words the Heire shall have this part because it shall go along with the Reversion So in the fifth of Edw. 4.4 If two Ioynt-tenants make a Lease for years rendring Rent to one of them yet the other shall have the Rent also although no mention were made of him so in the 7 H. 4.223 By the Court If I make a Feoffment in Fee rendring a Rent to me my Heires may distraine And if I grant over this Rent my Assignees in this case may distraine and avow so in this case an Action will lye for the Heire although he be not mentioned But adjudged to the contrary by the Court for when H. passeth Lands from himself the Law gives him liverty to passe them in such way and manner as he himself will and this liberty ought to take effect according to the expresse words for the Law will not extend the words further for the intent shall appeare by the words and then it cannot be here intended that his will was that his Heire shall have the Rent because the words are not sufficient to give it to his Heirs And therefore note a diversity when
5 H. 7.9 And afterwards vide Mich. 37 38 Eliz. It was adjudged that this was good enough in an Ejectione firmae for there the damages are the principall but otherwise in a Precipe for there ought to be a certainty but in an Assise of Novel Disseisin it is good enough but afterwards Mich. 38 39 Eliz. the case was debated in the Exchequer Chamber by Writ of Error and the Iudgment was reversed Hil. 36 Eliz. in B.

Walters Case LOve brought an Action of Debt against Wotton who pleaded the Statute of Vsury in Bar and by reason of Mispleader it was awarded by the Court that the parties should plead De novo and this Award was entred in this manner viz. Et quia placitum illud in modo forma placitat est sufficiens in lege the Court awarded that the parties should replead and hereupon they pleaded and Iudgment for the Plaintiff and the Defendant brought a Writ of Error in the Exchequer Chamber which was certified accordingly And there Gawdy moved that the Record in this point might be amended and to have the Record certified de novo into the Exchequer Chamber for that the first Award is repugnant in it self for it is awarded that they shall replead because the Plea est sufficiens whereas it ought to be that they shall replead because est minus sufficiens as the paper books are and the opinion of the Court was that it could not be amended because that the fault is in the Iudgement it self which is the act of the Court and therefore cannot be amended Glanvill It is no Error in the Iudgment for the Iudgment is only that they shall replead but the Error is in the Iudgment to the Iudgment and may be well amended and of the same opinion was Popham Mich. 36 and 37 Eliz. in B.

Bartwrights Case BArtwright brought an Action of Debt upon a Bond against Harris the Condition was that if the Defendant did acquit discharge and save harmlesse the Plaintiff against an Obligation in which he and the Defendant were bound to I.S. in 601 l. that then the Obligation should be void The Defendant said that Bartwright was sued on this Obligation by I. S. and upon default I.S. had Iudgment to recover and that the Defendant before execution did deliver to the Plaintiff the 601 l. and hereupon the Plaintiff demurred Humbert It is no plea for he confesseth that the Plaintiff was not yet taken in execution yet inasmuch as he may be taken therefore his body goods and lands are liable to the execution and he hath not acquitted nor saved him harmlesse against the Bond of I.S. vide Dyer 186.

Carpes Tenches Trouts c. and put them into his Pond for store and then died The question was whether the Heire or the Executors should have the Fish Popham The Heire shall have the Deer in the Park and by the same reason the Fish Clench If the Fish be stolne it is Felony so that it appears there is a property in them vide 18 Ed. 4. 10 Ed. 4.14 22 Ass 98. that stealing of Tench out of a Pool is Felony by which it seems they are but Chattels Popham the Book is so and so is the Law but that is of stealing Fish out of a Trunk or some narrow place where they are put to be taken at will and pleasure but otherwise it is where they are put into a Pond Fenner He which hath the water shall have the Fish And Popham ex assensu curiae gave Iudgment for the Heire And in the principall case the Executors did take the Fish with Nets and the Heire brought a Trespasse and adjudged maintainable See what Chattels Executors shall have and what not in 21 H. 7.26 10 H. 7.6 30. an account will lye for Fish in a Fish-pond so in the 5 R. 2.

Leighs Case LEigh brought an Ejectione firmae for a Chamber against Shaw the Case was A Lease was made of the Rectory of Chingford in Essex and of the Glebe excepting the Parsonage house saving and allowing to the Lessee a Chamber over the Parlor next the Church It was adjudged that the Lease of the Chamber was good for as well as a man by his exception may except part of a thing so as it shall be intended that it was never let or granted so in this case when he saies except the Parsonage house saving and allowing to the Lessee a Chamber this saving makes the Chamber as it were excepted out of it as if it had been leased so a saving out of a saving is as much as there had been no saving at all and then this Chamber not being excepted out of the Lease shall passe clearly by the Lease of the Rectory And Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff 37 Eliz. in B. R. Rot. 242. Wrights Case WRight brought a Writ of Error against the Mayor and Comminalty of Wickombe to reverse a Fine levied by his Ancestor of twenty acres of Land the Defendants in abatement of the Writ of Error did plead that the Plaintiff after the death of his Ancestor did disseise the Defendants of the Land and made a Feoffment to a stranger Iudgment c. The Plaintiff replied that they did re-enter upon him without that that he did enfeoff a stranger modo forma The Iury found that there was a Fine of twenty acres and that the Plaintiff being Disseisor of all made a Feoffment of six of the acres to a stranger Et si supra totam materiam c. And it was objected that the Record was intire and the Error is a Chose in Action and not a Chose in Droit and therefore cannot be divided but if it were a Chose in Droit it is otherwise as if a Disseisee of twenty acres releaseth all his right in five acres this doth extinguish all his right in the five acres so upon a Feoffment of parcell yet the right remaineth as to the remnant But of a Chose in Action which is meerly entire no apportionment can be as in the 31 Eliz. in the Kings Bench between Charnock and Wrothesley the case was Husband and Wife levied a Fine of the Wives Land and after because the Wife was within age they sued a Writ of Error to reverse the Fine The question was If this should be reversed as to the Wise onely or against the Husband according to the opinion of Belknap in the 50 Ed. 3. And after long debate it was resolved
that it should be against both for it is intire and cannot be affirmed in part and disaffirmed in another part And the Lord Norris case is very agreeable to this where Tenant for life did levy an erroneous Fine and then was attaint by Parliament and all the right which he had to any Land was given to the Queen and it was adjudged that there is no title of Error nor was it given to the Queen by this word Right and then if it be so the Title of Error is not of any right in the land but onely to the Suit and if it be a Suit it is a Suit intire for he cannot have severall Suits as is agreed in Sir Richard Knightleys case A man had judgment to recover 150 l. and did release 20 l. of it and after sued execution and the other brought an Audita querela upon the Releases and defeated all the execution But it is otherwise where such apportionment of such Suit is done by act in Law as in 7 Ed. 4. fol. ultimo The Sheriff levied parcell of the debt by Fieri facias yet shall he have an Action of Debt for the Residue upon the Record But in this case it is the act of the party himself that destroies his Suit for part of the Land for which it shall destroy the other suit for the Error is intire as to all the land and cannot be divided as in the 38 Ed. 3. and 12 H 6. if a false Verdict be found and the party greived does make a Feoffment of parcell he shall not have an attaint for any part So in the 19 H. 6. and the 39 Ass If he who hath cause to bring a Writ of Error or Attaint does take a Lease for years of parcell he doth suspend his Action and if he takes in fee it is quite gone But it was resolved by the Court that the Feoffment does not destroy the Title of the Writ of Dower for more then so much as a Feoffment was made of and thereupon they first took a difference between suspension and extinguishment of an Action for peradventure if he suspend his Action as to any part for any time this is a suspension unto all but extinguishment of part is a Bar to that part onely and Gawdy cited the case in 9 H. 6. where Iudgment was reverst for part only and it is not unusuall to have a Fine reversed for part as if a fine be levied of lands in ancient Demesne 47 Ed. 3.9 a. there by Parsley If there be Error in Law as to one parcell and Error in Fact as to another parcell the Iudgment as touching the matter of Law may be reversed Fenner He who hath Title to reverse a Fine or recovery by Writ of Error hath right in the Land and if he release all his right in the land the Error is extinct and the reason of the Lord Norris Case was not that the Title to the Error was an Action in privity annexed to the party to the Record and his Heires and cannot be transferred over to another no more then a Writ of partition between Coparceners or a Nuper obiit Popham He who hath Title to have the Writ of Error hath no Title to the Land although that thereby he be to be restored to the Lande for if the Land discend to one who hath Title to have the Writ of Error without doubt it shall not be accounted a remitter But as to the matter now in question he said that if two men bring a Writ of Error in the Realty and the Tenant plead the release of one this is a good Bar against both because the Error in the Record is released But if one who hath Title to a Writ of Error does make a Release of all his Right in one acre this is a Bar but for so much inasmuch as the Release is a Bar but as to the Restitution of the Land onely and no Release of Errors in the Record for by the Reversall of a Fine or Recovery the party may annihilate the Record and have Restitution of that which the Record before took from him and therefore it shall bar the Plaintiff And the opinion of all the Court was that the Fine should be reversed for that part of the Land onely whereof no Feoffment was made but for some defects in the Writ of Error Iudgment was stayed Mich. 37 and 38 Eliz. in B.

Barnards Case SMith brought an Action of Debt upon a Bond against Barnard the Defendant pleaded that the Plaintiff was outlawed and a day was given him to bring in the Record at which day he made default Daniel moved that the Iudgment for the Plaintiff in this case should be that the Defendant should answer for that the plea of Outlawry was but a dilatory Plea and no Plea in Bar as appears 21 Ed. 4 15. but this difference was taken by the Court. In an Action of Debt upon a Bond Vtlary of the Plaintiff is a Plea in Bar and the reason is because all the Debts in specialties are forfeited to the Queen by reason of the Outlawry and because the Queen is to have them it is a good Plea in Bar But in a Trespasse or Debt upon a Contract the Outlawry is but to the abatement of the Writ and the Queen shall not have Debts upon simple Contracts but after the Outlawry pardoned the Plaintiff may have an Action for them again And because he failed to bring the Record at his day appointed the Plaintiff recovered vide Dyer 6 Eliz. 227 228.

Iustices Cook being against it that this is not within the Statute but they agreed that if one bought corn and thereof made meale or oat-meale and sold it that this was within the Statute for that is usuall and is no alteration and therefore remaines the same corn but starch is altered by a trade or science which is a mysterie and so it is not the same thing that was sold But Cook Chief Iustice contra And cited one Franklinghams Cass Michaelm 39 40 Eliza. in B. R. where one bought Barley and because it was of such Quantity that he could not make Malt of it in his own house he made Malt thereof in anothers house by his own servants And it was resolved First That the conversion of corn into Malt in his own house with an intent to sell it was within the Statute unless there be a saving for it Secondly Forasmuch as it was in anothers house he is out of the proviso and so within the penalty of the Statute And in Pasch 42 Eliz. between Reynolds and Gerret That if a Miller buyes corne and grinds it and sells it within his house this is within the Statute And in the Checquer Chamber in a writ of Errour there between Baron and Brise adjudged there that a Coster-monger who buyes Pippins to sell them again was out of this Statute because they are necessary victuall And divers exceptions were taken to the Information viz. where he saith Ligamen anglicè Starch whereas there is no such word but it is Ligumen and the anglicè will not help this mistake Cook 10. Rep. 134. and this exception was taken by Iustice Winch. But Warburton Iustice cont for Starch is a thing newly devised and there is no Latin word for it and therefore the anglice there is good Foster Iustice took an exception because the information concluded contra formam Statuti whereas it ought to have been contra formam Statutorum For this Statute was of force untill the 8 Elizab. and then was determined untill the 13th of Elizabeth and then it was revived so there are two Statutes but 't was agreed that where a Statute continued de tempore in Tempus and was never discontinued nor determined there it shall be said contra formam Statuti and this diversity hath been twice adjudged upon this very Statute viz. 9 Eliz. in Palmers Case and in the 35 Eliz. Warburton cont for the Information doth intend only the Statute of 5 Ed. 6 and 14. and he did recite the words thereof in his Information also this Statute only makes the offence and declares the manner of it and no other Statute makes any addition to it or increaseth the penalty but only revives it to endure in perpetuum But if a Statute doth prohibit a thing and another Statute gives a penalty there upon Information upon the penalty both Statutes ought to be recited and to conclude contra formam Statutorum vid. Commentar 206. Morgans Case And so the Statute of Vsury 37 H. 8. is revived the 13th Eliz. and an addition made to it there such inclusion ought to be contra formam Statutorum but where the Statute is only revived it is otherwise as the Statute of Perjury 5 Eliz. was continued untill the 14 Eliz. and then it was determined and 27 Eliz. was revived yet all informations upon that Statute are contra formam Statuti 5 Elizab.

Also the Covenant was broken immediatly upon the sealing of the Lease to the Plaintiff And as to the second point he held it was a good livery because no time was limited in the Letter of Attorney Dodderidge Serjeant The Covenant is voyd because the Lease is voyd but contra if it had been a Covenant to enjoy for three lives and he relyed much on the difference between tempus annorum and terminum annorum in Cook 1. Rep. 124. Nichols cont The Covenant is good and yet in force for when an estate is created in which is implyed a Covenant in Law there if the estate be voyd the Covenant is voyd also but when there is an express Covenant in Deed there it is otherwise although the Lease be voyd or voydable as if he Covenant that the Lessee shall enjoy during the terme and the lessee resign yet is the Covenant good although the terme is gone And as to the second point The livery is good for untill the livery be made the lessor shall retaine his land and no Rent is due vid.

Where a man made a Lease for yeares rendring Rent to the Lessor and his Assignes here none shal have the Rent but the Lessor and it is void by his death for his Assignee cannot be privy to the Reservation and the words of the party shall not in any case be enlarged unlesse there be great inconvenience to be avoided and his intent and will is performed if he himself have the Rent And if a man reserve such Rent to him and his Executors this word Executors is to no purpose for that the Rent cannot be reserved to them but the Rent shall be extinct by his death And if he reserve the Rent to his Heire and not to himself he shall not have it but his Heire for he shall be estopped to claime it against his own words and reservation And if I make a Lease for years rendring Rent to me during the terme if I dye without Heire during the terme the Lord by Escheat shall not have the Rent which case may be compared to the case of Warranty 6 H. 7.2 That without mention of the Heires the Warranty shall not bind them But if a Rent be reserved to his Assignes and he grants over the Reversion here because the Assignes were mentioned in the Reservation and for that now there is a privity the Assignees shall have the Rent for it shall be intended that when he speaks of Assignes in the Reservation he prefixeth thereby to whom he will Assigne the Reservation wherefore it was adjudged for the Defendant vide Dyer 2 Eliz. 180 181.

Goddards Case Confirmation by the Lessor to the Assignee of Tenant for years H. makes a Lease for years of twenty acres rendring Rent the Lessee grants all his Estate in one of the acres to I.S. the Lessor confirmes the Estate of I. S. Resolved by the Court 1. That by this confirmation the entire Rent is gone in all the other acres for being an entire contract and by his own act there cannot be an occupation for part and an extinguishment for the other part and in this case there is no difference between a suspension in part and an extinguishment If A. makes a Lease for yeares of twenty acres rendring Rent upon condition that if he does not do such a thing that then the Lease shall be void for ten acres if he performes not the condition and the Lessor enters the entire rent is gone And it was resolved that a Lease for years was not within the Statute of Quia emptores terrarum for that Statute extends to an Estate in Land of Fee-simple See the Report of Serjeant Benlowes in 14 H. 7. A Warren did extend into three Parishes And a Lease was made for years rendring rent and after the Reversion was granted to another of all the Warren in one of the Parishes and the Lessee did attorne The question was if the Lessor should have any part of this rent during the terme so that the rent may be apportioned or not And the Iustices said in this Case that neither the Grantor nor the Grantee shall have any rent for the Law is that no Contract shall be apportioned 2. It was resolved that no Lessor shall avow for the arrearages of rent before the time of Confirmation and extinguishment for H. shall not avow for the rent determined but he may defend himselfe by way of Iustification See where a man may justifie the taking by speciall evidence 19 H. 6.41 by all the Court except Askew Mich 33 and 34 Eliz. in Ban.

Wardfords Case Error HAddock brought a Writ of Error against Wardford upon a Iudgment given in the Common Pleas the case was thus Two Coparceners of a house one of them lets her part to a stranger and the other lets her part to a stranger also and then both Leases come to the hands of one H. and then one of the Coparceners bargaines and sells her reversion to the other Coparcener The Lessee commits Wast Permittendo dictum Messuagium cadere and the grantee of the Reversion brought an action of Wast The Errors assigned were 1. That he brought but one action of Wast although of severall Demises by severall Lessors wheras he ought to have two actions of Wast Godfrey He cannot have an Action in other manner then his Grantor might have before the Grant and when the reversion came to him it can be in other plight then it was before Gawdy There is a diversity when the right is severall and when the possession is severall for although the possession be severall yet if the right be intire but one action will lys as appeares F.N.B. fol. 2. Godfrey There is difference between the Writ of Right in F.N.B. and this action for there he was never intituled but onely to the action but in our case the action was once severall and is like the case in F.N.B. 60. where it is said that a man may have one action of Wast and declare upon divers Leases but that is intended where the Leases are made by one person and he cited the case in 21 H. 7.39 where it is agreed by all the Iustices that if a man hold two acres of one H. by severall Services and dies without Heire the Lord shall not have one Writ of Escheat but ought to have two Writs Popham chief Iustice did agree with Gawdy for although that at first the Lessors were intituled to severall Actions yet by matter ex post facto the Actions may be united and said that H. might have an action of Waste and declare ex assignatione and also ex dimissione 2. Error was assigned that he had assigned the Waste to be committed in the whole house whereas he had
but part of the house and Waste may be brought for part of a house 3. Error was because the other Coparcener was not joyned with him in the Action But resolved that it was good enough And the Iustices made this diversity viz. When both the parties have an equall Estate and Inheritance and when one of them hath but a particular Estate as in the 27 H. 8.13 Lessee for life and he in the remainder shall joyne in an Action of Waste but where they had equal estate of Inheritance as two Coparceners or two Tenants in Common and one makes a Lease and the Lessee commits Waste there the Writ of Waste shall be brought by the Lessor only for it is not like to a personall injury done upon an Inheritance for an action of Waste is now in the nature of the realty although that at the Common Law before the Statute of Glocester there was but a Prohibition yet the Statute gives the place wasted and damages and therefore it is mixt wherefore both of them shall not joyne and the Writ saies to his ●isheritance that made the Lease vide 22 H. 6 24. by the Court and agreeing with this resolution 4. Error was that the Waste is a permissive Waste and no such Waste lies between Coparceners for each of them are bound to contribution and reparation but the Court would take no notice of this 5. Error was in the entring Iudgment for Iudgment was entred by default whereupon a Writ of Inquiry of damages issued out to the Sheriff and the Sheriff went to the place wasted which he needed not have done And the Iudgment was Quod recuparet locum vastatum per visum Juratorum which was nought for the going to the place was Surplusage But divers Presidents were produced to prove that that was the course as Hilar.

Gaytons Case Resignation of a Benefice RObert Gayton Parson of the Church of little Eyesingham in the County of Norfolk did by Instrument in writing resign his Benefice before Edmund Langdon publick Notary and others into the hands of the Bishop and the resignation was absolute and voluntary and to the use of Miles Mosse and Paul Britback or either of them And it was further inf●rred in the said Instrument of Resignation Protestatione sub conditione quod si aliqui eorum non admissi fuerant per assessionē Episcop infra sex menses quod tunc haec present resignatio mea vacua pro nulla habeatur nunc prout tunc tunc prout nunc and Cestuy que use came within the time limited to the Bishop and did offer to resigne to him which the Bishop refused to except c. Crooke for the Plaintiff Forasmuch as the Plaintiff may resigne on Condition as well as a particular Tenant may surrender upon condition and two Parsons may exchang● and i● the estate be executed on the one part and not on the other that Parson whose part was not executed may have his Benefice again as it is adjudged in the 46 Ed. 3. But Coke Solicitor and Godfrey were on the contrary opinion For that the Incumbent may not transfer his Benefice to another without presentation as appeares in the recited case of 46 Edw. 3. Also the resignation is not good and the Condition void because it is against the nature of a Resignation which must be Absolute sponte pure simpliciter and is not like to a Condition in Law as in the said case of Exchange in 46 Edw. 3. for the Law doth annex a condition to it but a collaterall condition cannot be annext by the parties themselves Also this is an Act Iudiciall to which a condition cannot be annext no more then an Ordinary may admit upon condition or a Iudgment be confessed on Condition which are judiciall Acts. But admitting the Condition good yet a new Induction ought to be made by the Ordinary for the Church became one time void and is not like to the case in 2 R. 2. Quare Impedit 143. where sentence of deprivation was given and the sentence presently reversed by Appeal there need no new Institution for that the Church was never void And after in Easter Tearm 36 Eliz. upon Arguments given in writing by the Civillians to the Iudges the Iudgment was entred Quod querens nihil capiat per billam Hiliar 35 Eliz. in the Kings Bench.

That he is forsworne upon the Deeds But the Court was against him For the vulgar sense is that men do not use to sweare but upon a Book and the Plaintiff had Iudgment Hil. 36 Eliz. in the Kings Bench. William Bartues Case Prohibition WOodroffe and Cooke brought a Prohibition against Bartue the C se was thus The Abbot of Langley did let Land to one Raston for ninety nine years who let the same to Woodroff for sixty years who granted parcell of the said Land to Cooke during the whole terme And Bartue did libell against them both in the Spirituall Court for Tythes and they joyned in a Prohibition Godfrey They may not joyne in a Prohibition for by the Statute of 34 H. 6.13 If two men are sued in the Court Christian for slander b●ttery c. which are severall in themselves there they cannot joyne in a Prohibition but where they be sued for the finding of a Lampe c. by reason of their Land there they shall joyne but in this case the Tythes are severall But it was resolved 1. That their joyning in the Prohibition was good enough 2. That the death of one of them shall not abate the Writ of Prohibition because nothing is by them to be recovered but they are onely to be discharged of Tythes Pasch 33 Eliz. in the Kings Bench Rot. 292.

It was resolved that if a Coppholder made a Lease for yeares which is not according to the Custome of the Mannor yet this Lease is good so that the Lessee may maintain an Ejectione firmoe for between the Lessor and the Lessee and all other except the Lord of the Mannor the Lease is good and so hath it been severall times adjudged in this Court Trin. 36 Eliz. in B.

Br. Joynt-tenant 53. Also one cannot have an Estate for life and for anothers life also in present interest for the greater doth drowne the lesse but if the greater be present and the other future as a Lease to him for life the remainder to him for anothers life or a Lease for life and three years over this is good but if a Lease be made for life and for years the Lease for years is drowned 19 Ed. 3.

If the other three had a joynt Estate 2. If they had a Remainder 3. If there be an Occupancy And he was of opinion that they had nothing by the habendum for they were not named in the Premisses they cannot have a Remainder for the incertainty but if those three had been named in the Premisses habendum to them Successive as they had been named there they had a Remainder for there the certainty appeared 30 H. 8.8 Dyer 361. Also there can be no Occupancy during the lives of the other three but he agreed to the Book of the 18 Ed. 3.34 that a Lease for life the Remainder to him for anothers life was good And that if a Lease be made to I.S. and a Monk it is void to the Monk and the other hath all and that during the life of the Monk there can be no Occupancy And if I make a Lease to I. S. for the life of a Monk it is a good Lease And till the same terme Iudgment was given that they could take nothing in possession joyntly nor by way of Remainder and that no Occupancy could be in the Case and that I.S. had Estate for terme of his owne life onely Stile against Miles STile Parson did suggest that the Land was parcell of the Glebe of the Parsonage and that the said Stile did let the said Glebe being foure and twenty acres to Miles for years rendring thirteen shillings foure pence Rent and in a Prohibition the case was if Tythes were to be paid And Wray said that although it was parcell of the Glebe yet when it was leased out Tythes ought to be paid and if no Rent be reserved Tythes ought to be paid without question but there may be a doubt where the Rent is reserved to the true value of the Land but here the Rent is of small value wherefore Tythes shall be paid also And the Reservation of the Rent was Pro omnibus exactionibus demandis yet the Iustices took no regard of those words But Godfrey said that those words would discharge him but Wray on the contrary for that this Tythe is not issuing out of the Land but is a thing collaterall and if a Parson do release to his Parishioners all demands in the Land yet Tythes are not thereby released for such generall words will not extend to such a speciall matter And in the 15 of R. 2.

And as to the other two pleas to the Writ Kinton demurred prayed that the Writ might be awarded him and a Venire facias to try the issue For Tanfeild urged that by pleading over to the felony he waved the plea to the Writ for there was a diversity between an appeal of Murther and of Mayhem for in Murther as it is 7 Ed. 4. and 3 Ed. 6. although he plead to the Writ of appeal yet of necessity he must plead over to the Murther because it is in favorem vitae or else if he will joyne in Demurrer upon the plea to the Writ he doth confesse thereupon the Felony and therefore he must plead over not guilty But in Mayhem it is otherwise for although the Declaration was for Felony yet is a Mayhem but a Trespasse onely and all are pru●cipalls and the life of the Defendant is not questioned but he shall onely render damages and therefore it he plead over to the Felony that is a waver of the plea and so a Venire facia● ought to issue out to try if he be culpable or not and of this opinion were Popham Fenner and Gawdy clearly and agreed to the diversity between the appeal of Mayhem and Murther Mich. 38 and 39 Eliz.

Tanfeild prayed that the Writ might abate for this case had been here in the Court in question before where Dethick was indided by the name of Dithick onely and because he was not named according to his creation he pleaded that matter and the Indictment was quashed Gawdy I remember the case very well and it was adjudged at my first coming to this Court and in truth the Iudgment passed against my opinion which then and still is
that when he is sued as King at armes in such case wherein his Office or other thing belonging to his Office comes in question then he ought to be named according to his Patent but when he is sued as I.S. then it is sufficient to name him by his proper name Popham Vpon the creation of any Deanery which is ordained and granted by Patent of the King the Dean shall sue and be sued by the name of Dean of such a place yet if such Dean doth sue or is sued about any matter concerning his naturall capacity it is not necessary to name him Dean Fenner But this is a name of dignity and by his installation is made parcell of his name and if a man be made a Knight in all Actions he shall be so named wherefore it seemed to him that the Writ ought to abate Et Adjournetur Hil. 37 Eliz.

that the Plaintiff could not have the Error but the Daughters who were the Heirs to Henry for an Action alwaies discends according to the right of land and it seems that the Heir in Burrow English shall have Error or Attaint and not the Heir at the Common Law which was agreed by all on both sides but it was said that this varies much from the present case for two reasons One because he came in as Vouchee which is to recover a Fee-simple and he shall render a Fee-simple in value which is discendable to the Heirs at the Common Law Secondly he hath no Estate-tail Bromley Solicitor and Plowden contra and laid this ground that in all cases where a recovery is had against one by erroneous processe or false verdict he which is grieved shall have redresse of it although he be not party or privy to the first Iudgment and therefore at the Common Law if a Recovery be had against Tenant for life he in the Reversion shall have Error of Attaint after his death and now by the Statute of R 2. in his life so in a Precipe if the Tenant vouches and the Vouchee looseth by default the Tenant shall have Error for the Iudgment was against him and he looseth his term and in the 44 Ed 4.6 in a Trespasse of Battery against two one pleads and it is found against him and the plea of the other not determined damages by the principall Verdict is given against them both which if they be excessive the other shall have an Attaint And Bromley said there could not be a case put but where he that hath the losse by the recovery should have also the remedy and Baker cited 9. H. 7.24.6 that if a Recovery be had against a man that hath land on the part of the Mother and he dies without issue the Heir of the part of the Father shall have the Error But Bromley and Plowden denied this case and that 3 H 4.9 it was adjudged to the contrary And Wray said to Baker that he ought not much to rely on that case for it was not Law and said that if Tenant for life makes a Feoffment and a Recovery is had against the Feoffee the first Lessor shall not avoid this Bromley there is no use for he may enter by forfeiture but in our case of whatsoever estate it be at the time of the recovery the right of the Estate-tail is bound and therefore it is reason that the Heir in tail shall avoid it Jeffrey of the same opinion and cited 17. Ass A Conusor makes a Feoffment and then execution is sued against the Feoffee by erroneous processe the Feoffee shall have the Writ of Error although he be not party to the first Record but the reason is because of his interest in the land And Bromley and Plowden said further that notwithstanding the Feoffee recovers against the Vouchee and the Vouchee recover over the land yet this recovery shall go to the Estate-tail And Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff Trin. 32 Eliz. in B.

Dyer Disseisee of one acre makes a Release to the Disseisor of all his lands and delivers it as an Escroll to be delivered to the Disseisor and then he disseiseth him of another acre and then the Deed is delivered to the Disseisor yet the right in the second acre shall not passe And he much rolled on Sir Richard Brochets case 26 Eliz. who made a Recognizance to Morgan upon condition to convey unto him all his lands whereof he was seised the first day of May and it hapned that one Corbet had sold him land by Indenture the 24. day of April but the Deed was not inrolled untill the 24. day of May after And the question was if the Conuzor was bound to convey these lands or not and adjudged that he was not for inasmuch as the Deed was not inrolled the ffrst day of May he was not seised and great mischief would ensue if the Law should be otherwise for no man will know against whom to bring his Action for a Bargain and Sale before Inrolement may be done secretly Herne Serjeant The Bargainee is seised before Inrolement and by the Statute of 5 Eliz. which wills that none shall convert land used to tillage unlesse he puts other land to tillage within six months yet none will say that it is a breach of the Statute although Pasture be presently converted to tillage and he cited Chilburns cafe 6 Eliz.

R. The Case of the Dean and Chapter of Norwich THe Case was A Church in which there had been a Parson and a Vicar time out of mind and the Parson used to have the great Tythes and the Vicar the small and for the space of forty years last past it was proved that the Parson had Tythes paid him out of a feild of twenty acres of Corne and now the feild is sowed with Saffron and the Vicar sued for the Tythes of Saffron in the Court Christian and the Parson had a Prohibition Coke I conceive the Parson shall have the Tythes for by the Statute of 2 H. 6. it is enacted that Tythes shall be paid as hath been used the last forty years and this hath been alwaies tythable to the Parson and although the ground be otherwise imployed yet the Parson shall have the Tythes and so was it in Norfolk in the Case of a Park where the Parson proscribed Pro modo decimandi to be paid three shillings fours pence for all Tythes rising out of the said Park and although the Park was after converted to arable yet no other Tythes shall be paid Popham It hath been adjudged otherwise in Wroths Case of the Inner Temple in the Exchequer But the Law is clearly as hath been said and the difference is when the Prescription is to pay so much money for all Tythes or when the Prescription is to pay a shoulder of every Buck or a Doe at Christmas for there if the Park be disparkt Tythes shall be paid for Tythes are not due for Venison and therefore they are not Tythes in Specie And I conceive that Tythes of Saffron-heads shall be comprehended under small Tythes and although the Tythes of this Feild have been paid to the Parson yet it being converted to another use whereof no grosse Tythes do come the Vicar shall have the tythes and so if arable land be converted into an Orchard the Wicar shall have tythe of the Apples and so if the Orchard be changed to arable the Parson shall have tythes Quod Fenner concessit 36 Eliz.

R. Ewer against Henden Rot. 339. IN an Ejectment the Iury found that I.S. being seised of a Capitall Messuage in the County of Oxford and also of a house and land in Walter in the County of Hartford makes a Lease for years of his house and land in the County of Hartford and then by Will does demise his house in the County of Oxon Together with all other his Lands Meadowes Pastures with all and singular their Appurtenances in Walter in the County of Hartford to John Ewer and whether the house in Walter in the County of Hartford does passe or not was the question Tanfeild The houses shall passe for if a man builds a house upon Black acre and makes a Feoffment of the acre the house shall passe and so if a man does devise una jugata terrae of Copyhold Land the house of the Copyhold does passe also for so is the common phrase in the Country and so if a man be rated in a 100 l. subsidy that does include houses and by the grant of a Tenement the house passeth but if a man demand a house in a Precipe there the house ought to be named Whistler contra It is true that if a man generally does devise his Land the houses passe but in this case the Devisee hath particularized his Land his Meadow and his Pasture and if he intended to have passed his houses he would have mentioned them as well as his Lande Fenner I am of the same opinion for this speciall numbring of particulars does exclude the generall intendment and if the Devisor had a Wood there that would dot passe by these words Popham contra For if a man sells all his Lands in D. his houses and woods passe by this word Lands and so was it agreed in a case which was referred to Dyer and Wray chief Justice and there reason was because that a Warrant of Attorney in a Precipe of a House Woods and Land is onely of Land which proves that land does comprehend all of them and therefore I conceive if a man does devise or bargain and sell all his lands in D. the Rents there shall passe for they were issuing out of the land But if a man be seised of three houses and three acres and he deviseth all his land in D. and one of his houses the other houses will not passe for his expresse meaning is apparant but here the words are in generall as to the lands in Walter and therefore the houses do passe But afterwards it was adjudged that the house did not passe for by the particular mentioning of all his Lands Meadowes and Pastures the house is excluded Pasch 4 Eliz. Hunt against King IN a Writ of Error upon a Iudgment given in the Common Pleas in a Formedon brought there the Case was Tenant in tail enfeoffs his Son and then disseiseth his Son and levies a Fine to a stranger and before the Proclamations passe the Son enters and makes a Feoffment to a stranger the Father dies and the Son dies and the Issue brings a Formedon The question was Whether by the entry of the Son the Fine was so defeated
that the Estate-tail was not barred Dyer The Estate tail is barred and made a difference where the Fine is defeated by entry by reason of the Estate-tail and where it is defeated by entry by reason of another estate-tail as in 40 Eliz. Tenant in tail discontinues and disseiseth the Discontinuee and levies a Fine to a stranger and retakes an Estate in Fee before the Proclamations passe the Discontinuee enters and then the Tenant in tail dies seised and adjudged that the Issue is not remitted for the Statute 32 H. 8. saies That a Fine levied of lands any way intailed by the party that levies the Fine shall bind him and so it is not materiall whether he were seised by force of the Estate-tail or by reason of another Estate or whether he have no Estate And all the Iustices were of opinion that the Estate was barred for although the discontinue had avoided the Fine by the possession yet the Estate-tail remains concluded and the same shall not enter by force of the Estate-tail but by force of the Fee which he had by discontinuance Popham Avoidance of a Fine at this day differs much from avoidance of a Fine at the Common Law for it appears by the 16 Ed 3. that if a Fine at the Common Law be defeated by one who hath right it is defeated against all but at this day the Law is contrary for if a man be disseised and the Disseisor die seised his Heir within age and he is disseised by a stranger who levies a Fine and then five years passe the Heire shall avoid this by his nonage yet the first Disseisee is bound for ever for the Infant shall not avoid the Fine against all but only to restore the possession And therefore it was adjudged in the Lord Sturtons Case 24 Eliz. where Lands were given to him and his Wife and the Heires of him and he died and his Issue entred and levied a Fine to a stranger and before the Proclamations passed the Mother enters it was adjudged that the Issue was barred for the Wife shall not avoid this but for her own Estate And so if a stranger enters to the use of him who hath right this shall not avoid the Fine Fenner did agree to this and said that it had been so adjudged but all the Iustices agreed that the Estate-taile being barred the entry shall go to the benefit of him who hath most right to the possession and that is the discontinue and therefore the Plaintiff in the Formedon hath good Title to the Land but onely to the Fee and not to the Intaile for that is barred by the Fine 28 Eliz. in C.

Gibson against Mutess IN a Replevin the Case was John Winchfeild was seised of Lands in Fee and by his Will did devise all his Lands and Tenements to Anthony Winchfeild and his Heires and before his death made a Deed of Feoffment of the same Lands and when he sealed the Feoffment he asked If this Feoffment will not hurt this last Will if it will not I will seal it And then he sealed it and made a Letter of Attorney to make Livery in any of the said Lands the Attorney made Livery but not of the Lands which were in question and then the Testator died And the question was if the Devisee or Heire of the Devisor should have the Land And it was said in behalf of the Heire that if the Testator had said It shall not be my Will then it is a Revocation Quod curia concessit But it was the opoinion of the Court that it appears that it was the intent of the Testator that his Will should stand and if it be not a Feoffment it is not a Revocation in Law although that the Attorney made a Livery in part so that the Feoffment was perfect in part yet as concerning the Land in question whereof no Livery was made the Will is good and the Iury found accordingly that the Land does not descend to the Heire Fenner cited a Case of Serjeant Jeffereys where it was adjudged that where one had made his Will and being demanded if he will make his Will doth say he will not that this is no Revocation Sir Wolston Dixy against Alderman Spencer 20 Eliz. in C.

The Defendant pleaded in Bar that before the Grant made to Dixy the said Bacchus granted it to him by parole according to the custome of London whereupon he demanded Iudgement if c. and the Plea was entred on Record and hanging the suit D●xy brought an assize of fresh force in London and all this matter was here pleaded and it was adjudged a forfeiture of the Land and hereupon Spencer brought a Writ of Errour and assigned this for errour that it was no forfeiture Shuttleworth It is no forfeiture untill a Trial be had whether the reversion be granted or not as in wast the Defendant pleads that the Plaintiff had granted over his estate this is no forfeiture and in the 26 Eliz. in a Quid Juris clamat the Defendant pleaded that he had an estate Tail and when he came to have it tryed he acknowledged he had an estate but for life and that was no forfeiture But the Court said they could remember no such Case Walmesley It was so adjudged and I can shew you the names of the parties Periam Justice If there be such a Case we would doubt of it for there are Authorities to the contrary as the 8 Eliz. and 6 Rich. 2. Anderson If the Defendant in a Trespass prayes in aid of an estranger this is a forfeiture and if it be counter-pleaded it is a forfeiture and the denial alters not the Case Walmesley The Books in 15 Ed. 2.

R. Rot. 165. AUstin and his wife as daughter and heir of one Webb brought a Writ of Errour against Thomas Courtney to reverse a Fine leavied in a base Court by the said Webb to himself Cook assigned these errours 1. Because the Fine was levied de uno tenemento which is not good for the generality for it may be land or common or rent And in 3 Ed. 4. a Plea in Bar was rejected because it was pleaded that one was seized de uno tenemento for this is uncertain And in 38 H. 6. an Action is brought upon the Statute of 8 H. 6. for entry into certain tenements that is not good for it ought to be brought of so many acres The second errour was because Webb the Conusor did acknowledge the land to be his right whereas it ought to be the right of Courtney the Conusee The third errour was because the Fine was levied in a base Court which prescribes to hold Pleas but they cannot levy Fines there for then the King shall lose his silver 50.

Rot. 174 IN a Trespass the Plaintiff declared that he was robbed of 20 l. and that he pursued the Felon with hue and cry to such a Town where he discovered the Felon to the Defendant who was Constable of the said Town wherefore he apprehended the Felon and found the 20 l. about him which sum the Defendant fook and detained in his own possession The Defendant confest the taking the 20 l. ut supra but because the Town was of no strength he carried the 20 l. to the next Town and as he was going upon the High-way he was robb'd of it and so he concluded that he ought not to be charged in this Action Johnson for the Plaintiff It appears in 4 H. 7. that the Thief hath no property in the money which is found in his possession and in the 15 Ed. 4. it is resolved that if A robs B and C robs A yet C hath not gained any property and if the Constable takes this out of his possession he cannot seize it to any other use than to the use of the King and therefore if he takes Felons goods and does not keep them safe the first Owner shall have a Trespass against him for by the 21 H. 7. If a man does carry the Parsons tithe to the Parsons barn because it is like to perish yet the Parson may have a Trespass against him And by the opinion of Stanford 44 Assi If goods are taken from a Felon and he will give sufficient surety he himself shall have the keeping of them or else the Town and therefore the ●o●stable hath no authority to meddle with them Erby contr For a Constable is Conservator ●acis and 〈…〉 the peace does consist as much in keeping of goods as of 〈…〉 a Felon And here the Constable doubting of the 〈…〉 Town by reason of the Inhabitants who were riotous 〈…〉 he thought it the best course to carry them to the next Town and so no default was in him for his taking and meoling with them was lawfull And 22 Assi 96. If a Felon flying be taken in any Village the Bailiff thereof may take the custody of the goods and I suppose that a Constable may keep goods as well as a Bailiff for he is a Minister of the Law and if they be taken from him he is no more chargeable than if goods were taken out of the possession of my servant Williams Iustice Pasch 2 H. 7. Common same is enough to apprehend any man but if you arrest a person who is possest of money and he dye you are chargeable with the money And so here although the taking of the Felon by the Constable be justiciable yet he is to keep safe the money at his peril and because he hath not he is liable to this Action Popham He might have pleaded not guilty for he said that if a Town hath the possession of my goods a Detinue lyes und not a Trespass but if a stranger takes them out of their

Dyer Anderson in the 35 36 Eliz. F●ste● did covenant with Franke to make an assurance at the costs and charges of Franke and Franke brought a Covenant and Foster Demurred because no charges were tendred to him it was adjudge against Fester for Franke could not have cognizance what manner of assurance should be made and so could not tell what charges to tender and therefore he ought first to shew him what manner of assurance he should make and according to that he ought to tender reasonable Charges Walmesley But the charges ought to precede the assurance but the declaring of what manner of assurance should be made ought first to be done Beaumond of the same opinion Michaelm 38 Eliz. Damport against Sympson IN an action on the Case the Plaintiff declared that he had given to one Spilman certain Iewells to Traffique with them beyond the Seas and that he had not fold them but had delivered them to the Defendant who had spoild them whereupon the Plaintiff brought an action against the said Spilman and upon not guilty pleaded they were at issue and the now Defendant at that evidence did Depose upon his oath that the Iewells were worth but 200 l. whereas they were worth 800 l. by reason whereof the Iury gave indeed but 200 l. damages and for this false oath he brought this action and the Iury upon not guilty pleaded found for the Plaintiff and assessed 300 l. damages And now it was moved in arrest of Iudgment that the action would not lie no more than against those informe a Iustice of Peace of Fellony upon his oath against J.
