Because that the Authority appeares within the letters patents themselves and exposition shall be made upon the whole patent 5. Although it be a most ample and large Commission yet it is bounded and circumscribed by the Law with an equall Construction S. that nothing shall bee done in other manner then the Authority warrants in prejudice of the King 6. Because that this reservation of a meane tenure is in other manner then the authority warrants and is in damage and prejudice of the King 7. And lastly because that this expresse reservation controlls the implication of Law and for that the King was deceived in his grant in that it cannot take effect according to his intention therein expressed For these Reasons they did resolve That this expresse Reservation of a meane tenure tends to the destruction of the whole patent and makes it voyde in Law both to the lands and to the tenure The Order of the Councell Board upon this Resolution of the Iudges By the Lord Deputy and Councell WENTWORTH WHereas there was an Act of Councell made at this Board and dated at the Abbey of Boyle the Eleaventh day of Iuly 1635. ordayning and establishing that the Lords Knights Gentlemen and Inhabitants their heires and assignes holding any Castle Mannors Lands Tenements or other haereditaments in the County of Roscoman by or under any effectuall letters patents from his Majesty or any of his Royall predecessors Kings or Queenes of England should have hold possesse and enjoy all the said Castles Mannors Lands Tenements and hereditaments of what kinde or nature soever they be to them and to every of them and to those who hold any estates under them against his Majesty his heires and successors in as full large ample free and beneficiall manner to all intents purposes and constructions as if the truth of their severall Cases and their severall letters patents passed thereupon had bene specially found in the great office then to be taken for finding his Majesties title to the said County and their letters patents accordingly entred in haec verba in the said office so that they did produce their said severall letters patents or the enrollments thereof before us the Lord Deputy and Councell at this Board before the first day of the then next Easter Tearme and that no possession should be taken from any such patentees or their assignes or tenants whose patents should be at this Board allowed to be good and effectuall in Law And whereas the like Acts of Councell were made at this Board for the severall Counties of Slygo Mayo and Gallway and the County of the towne of Gallway And whereas severall letters patents past under his Majestyes great seale of divers lands tenements and hereditaments in the said severall Counties by colour of a Commission under the greate Seale dated the second day of March in the fourth yeare of the Raigne of his Majestyes Royall Father King Iames of blessed memory were presented unto us at this Board which being taken into consideration by us we thought fit for our better Information of the validity of the said letters patents to call before us some of those who claymed by those letters patents as namely our very good Lord the Viscount Dillon of Costillogallen whom wee appointed to attend us with his learned Councell therein which he did accordingly Whereupon his Majestyes learned Councell and the Councell learned of the said Lord Dillon agreed upon a Case drawen up by them to be argued by them on both sides before us which Case followeth in haec verba King Iames by Commission under the greate Seale dated the second day of March in the fourth yeare of his Raigne did authorize certaine Commissioners to grant the mannor of Dale by letters patents under the greate Seale of this Kingdome to A. and his heires and there is no direction given in the said Commission touching the tenure to be reserved There are letters patents by colour of the said Commission passed unto A. and his heires to hold by Knights service that is to say by the twentieth parte of c. as of his Majestyes Castle of Dublyn the question is whither the said letters patents be voyde in the whole or onely to the tenure upon which case his Majesties learned Councell and the learned Councell on the part of the said Viscount Dillon argued before us severall dayes and wee desirous to take such a Resolution in the matter as might be equall and just held fit to advise therein withall his Majestyes Iudges who not agreeing unanimously in opinion wee adjudged it fit that every of them should argue it and deliver his Iudgement and opinion therein before us which they did accordingly Wherein five of them viz. the Lord Chiefe Iustice of his Majesties Court of Kings Bench the Lord Chiefe Iustice of his Majestyes Court of common pleas the Lo Chiefe Baron of his Majestyes Court of Exchequer Baron Barry and Iustice Rives concurred in opinion clearely that the letters patents were voyde in the whole and two onely viz. Iustice Mayart and Iustice Cressy differed from those five in opinion holding that the letters patents were onely voyde as to the tenure we thereupon taking the same into consideration at this Board doe hereby adjudge order and declare that the said letters patents are wholly voyde in Law and consequently that all such letters patents passed under colour of the said Commission and that mention the parcells granted to be held by Knights service as of his Majestyes Castle of Dublyn or by any tenure other then by Knights service in Capite generally are not good effectuall or valid in Law but voyde in the whole And therefore we doe at this Board disallowe all such letters patents soe granted as aforesaid of any lands tenements or hereditaments in any of the said Counties of Roscoman Slygo Mayo Gallway or the county of the towne of Gallway Given at his Majestyes Castle of Dublyn 13.
