'T was said for Law That the King may grant a thing in action which is personal as debt and dammages and the like or a thing mixt as the ward of body but not a thing real as an action of land and the like as Rights Entries Actions and the like which Abbots might have And that the King shall have these by the Statute of dissolution of Abbies 31.

the Case whereas the Plaintiff was possessed of such Goods as of his proper Goods and lost them and the Defendant found them and conver-them to his own use the Defendant said That the Plaintiff pledged them to him for 10. l. by reason of which he detrains them for the said 10. l. as t is lawfull for him without that that he converted them to his own use as c. and a good plea by some By others he must plead not guilty and give this matter in evidence for the Detainer 4.

B. administrators 33. the end Charles Brandon Duke of Suffolk had issue sonn by one Venter and daughter by another Venter and devised goods to the son and dyes and after the son dyes intestate without Wife and Issue and the mother of the son who was of the second Venter for the daughter was of the first Venter took the administration by the Statute which is That the administration shall be committed to the next of kinn of the intestate And upon great argument in the Spirituall Court Tam per legis peritos regni quam per peritos legis civilis the administration was revoked And so see that the administration may be revoked and so 't was likewise in the case of Brown and Shelton before of the goods of W. Rawlin Clerk which was committed to Sir H. Brown who marryed the sister of the said Rawlins and after came W. S. and J. S. son of the Wife of the said Sir H. which Wife was the mother of the said Shelton by a former Husband and reversed the first administration and obtained the administration to them And the said Duke had issue Frances by the French Queen and after this Wife dyed he marryed the daughter of the Lord Willoughby and had issue by her one Henry and dyed and after Henry dyed without issue and without Wife and the mother of the Heir took the Administration and after the said Frances Wife of the Marquess of Dorset sued and reversed the administration and obtained the administration to her self though she were but sister of the half blood to the said Henry because that she is next of kinn to the said Henry for that Henry had not any Children for the mother is not next of kinn to her own son in this respect of this matter for it ought to goe by discent and not by ascension by the Law of England nor by the Law civill And the children are de sanguine patris matris sed frater mater non sunt de sanguine puerorum And by Isidore Pater mater puer sunâ— una caro and therefore no degree is betwixt them contrary between brother sister and the half blood is no impediment as to goods B. administrators 47. Note that in the argument of this case 't was agreed by the Justices that the King is not intitled to the land of his Ward without office though he hath but a Chattel in it yet it comes ratione tenurae which is the Seigniory and Freehold in the King 5 E. 6.

And where he recovers in a Writ of annuity or assise as before Or hath avowed for a Rent which is Freehold and recovers the arrearages without costs and damages he shall not have an action of Debt of that but a Scire facias for t is real But where he hath Judgement of it with costs and dammages which go together so that that t is mixt with the personality then lies a Writ of Debt against the Heir of the arrearages and dammages and this B. thinks in default of Execution per curiam 23.
