would trust him therewith that then within short space after he would truely make payment aswell of the hundred pounds as also of the said two hundred poundes vpon which earnest intreatie the said C. D. being a man of a verie good nature and easily led by such as he any way conceaued or thought well of was contented to satisfie his request But yet forasmuch as the said A. B. had before that time taken but small regard concerning the keeping of his dayes vpon the single obligation aforesaid the said C. D. then thinking to deale more substancially with him then before demaunded a recognizance for the said summe of an hundred poundes so then to be lent without which he was vtterly vnwilling to trust him any further Whereunto the said A. B. assented and became bound accordingly in a Recognizance of two hundred markes with condition for the true payment of an hundred pounds which is the recognizance in the saide bill of complaint mencioned For discharge of which recognizance the said A. B. tooke no greater regard then before he had done for payment of the said single Obligation And therefore the said C. D. at the last three yeares at the least being then past after the forfaiture of the said Recognizance perceiuing the carelesnesse of the said A. B. asked aduise of some of his friends what course he were best to take for the obtayning of the saide seuerall summes of money By whom he was aduised to put the saide Recognizance rather then the Obligation aforesayd in suit aswell for speedy end of suit in the same as also that thereby it was thought the saide A. B. would the rather seeke meanes to make satisfaction aswell of the one debt as of the other But he meaning nothing lesse nor regarding the saide suit suffered the same to proceede till some parcell of his lande was extended and so the saide C. D. was faine after three yeares forbearance of the said summe of one hundred poundes as aforesaid and after he had spend more then twentie poundes in suites and rewardes in obteyning the says extent to accept onely twentie markes by the yeare till the sayd two hundred markes being the principall and penaltie were payed vnto hym so that the forbearance of the saide summe accompted together wyth the charges in suit great losse of time in following the same and rewardes gyuen to Shirifes and Baylifes or euer any the saide landes might be extended The saide C. D. sustayned so great losse as by the circumstances of that which before hath been shewed doth euidently approue that he was vtterly discouraged to attempt any more suits against the saide A. B. but rested still in hope that at one time or other he should obtaine meanes in quiet sort without suit in lawe to get satisfaction also of the said summe of c. which hath bin the reason onely why the sayde E. D. did not put the sayd Obligation in suit so long time without that that to the knowledge of this Defendant there was euer any defeasans made vpon the said Obligation or that any such defeasans by casuall meanes is come into the hands of this Defendant as in the said Bill is vntruely alleaged And without that that the said A. B. by himselfe or his officers as by the premisses manifestly appeareth did make payment of the said debt or any part thereof which the said defendant is the rather throughly perswaded of as well because she was well acquainted with the dealings of her said husband as also because at the time of the debts of her said husband he lying in extremity called this defendant vnto him and said that he had carefully gathered together sundry bonds and Obligations which at sundry times had beene made vnto him for diuers summes of money and yet in trueth they were paied and discharged and those bondes and Obligations he had put in a boxe by themselues and named them Billes which Obligations he willed this defendant to cancell or deliuer to such persons as were the Obligors and in any wise not to demaunde any debt vpon any of them And further he also openly said that all the residue of the bonds and Obligations remaining in other boxes which he then also named were due and owing vnto him In the which of the said boxes the said Obligation of 200. li. was found neither is it to be thought that any officer of the said A. B. would deale so lightly as to paye the money due vpon the said Obligation beeing but single and without penalty without either acquittance or the bond it selfe redeliuered or cancelled Or that the said A. B. himselfe would haue allowed of any such payment vpon any his officers accompts And without that that the said A. B. did at any time allow any maner of consideration for the forbearaunce of any summe of money due by him to the said C. D. as also is vntruely alleaged And without that that the said C. D. did put the same Recognisaunce in suite presently after the forfeiture thereof for the same was forborne three yeares after as is before declared And without that that it is likely that the saide C. D. did acknowledge himselfe satisfied of all those seuerall summes of twenty markes which should make vp the two hundred markes vpon the extend aforesaid when as he had recouered the whole debts due to him by the said A. B. but onely without that that the said A. B. to the knowledge of this defendant did signifie by his letters his displeasure towardes the sayde C. D. as also is vntruely set downe And without that that any other thing materiall in the lawe c. As in the other To cause one to shew his Lease whereby he holdeth c. MOst humbly complayning c. A. B. of c. gentleman That Sect. 133. whereas about fower yeares last past one C. D. of L. vpon a certaine iudgement in a plea of debt amounting to the summe of c. or there abouts by him obteyned in her Maiesties court of common plees against one L. F. of c. in the Countie of c. sued forth her Maiesties writ of Fieri facias directed to the Shirife of the said Countie for the leuying of the said debt of the goods and chattels of the said E. F. By vertue of which writ the Shirife did amongst other things take into his hands one lease for diuers yeares yet induring made to the said E. F. by one T. S. in the Countie of S. esquier of three parcels of land called and knowen by the name or names of c. with all and singuler their appurtenances lying and being in the parishes of c. in the said Countie of c. together with all and singuler woods vnderwoods and trees set lying being and growing in or vpon the premisses or any part thereof together also with the reuersion and reuersions of the premisses aforesaid and euery parcell thereof And also all maner of common aswell of
