And if this doth not passe nothing can passe which was in the Tenure of the said Brown because he had nothing in the places comprised in the Patent But it was agreed by all the Court that it shall not passe by the said Patent in this case for the word illa is to be restraind by that which follows in the Patent where it depends upon a generality as here and that it refers but to that in Wells as the liberty of that which was parcell of the possessions of the said Hospitall and in the Tenure of the said John Brown And if it were not of these possessions or not in Wells c. or not in the Tenure of the said John Brown it shall not passe for the intent of the King in this case shall not be wrested according to the particular or the value which are things collaterall to the Patent but according to his intent comprised in or to be collected by the Patent it self And Popham said that by Grant of omnia terras Tenementa Hereditamenta sua in case of the Queen nothing passe if it be not restraind to a certainty as in such a Town or late parcell of the Possessions of such a one or of such an Abbey or the like in which cases it passeth as appeareth by 32 H. 8. in case of the King But if it be Omnia terras tenementa sua vocat D. in the Tenure of such a one and in such a Town and late parcell of the possessions of such a one there albeit the Town or the Tenant of the Land be utterly mistaken or that it be mistaken of what possessions it was it is good for it sufficeth that the thing be well and fully named and the other mistakes shall not hurt the Patent And the word of Ex certa scientia c. will nof help the Patent in the principall case And the case of 29 E. 3. is not to be compared to this case for it was thus The King granted the Advowson of the Priory of Mountague the Prior being an Alien to the Earl of Salisbury and his Heirs for ever And also the keeping and Farm with all the Appurtenances and Profits of the said Priory which he himself had curing the War with the keeping of certain Cell● belonging to the said Priory the said Earl died William Earl of Salisbury being his Son and Heir and within age wherupon the King reciting that he had seised the Earls Lands into his hands after his death for the Nonage of the Heir he granted to the said Earl all his Advowsons of all the Churches which were his Fathers and all the Advowsons of the Churches which belong to the Prior of Mountague to hold untill the full age of the said Heir quas nuper concessit prefat Comiti patri c. In which case although the King had not granted the Advowsons to the said Earl the Father aforesaid by the former Patent because no mention was of the Advowsons therof yet they passe by this Patent notwithstanding that which follows after to wit and which he granted to the Father of the Grantee But there it is by a Sentence distinct and not fully depending upon the former words as here to wit Omnia illa Messuagia c in Wells in the Tenure of the party parcell of the Possessions of such an Hospitall or Priory Quod nota and the difference And because the Defendant claimed under the first Patent and the Plaintiff by the latter Patent it was agreed that the Plaintiff should recover Which you may see in the Kings Bench. Harrey versus Farcy 7. IN an Ejectione firmae brought by Richard Harrey Plaintiff for the Moyety of certain Tenements in North-petherton in the County of Somerset upon a Lease made by Robert Bret against Humfrey Farcy Defendant upon not guilty and a speciall Verdict found the case appeared to be this to wit That Robert Mallet Esquire was seised of the said Tenements in his Demesne as of Fee and so seised demised them to John Clark and Elianor Middleton for term of their lives and of the longer liver of them after which the said Tenements amongst others were assured by Fine to certain persons and their Heirs to the use of the said Robert Mallet for term of his life and after his decease to the use of John Mallet his Son and Heir of his body and for default of such Issue to the use of the right Heirs of the aid Robert Mallet After which the said Robert Mallet having Issue the said John Mallet Christian and Elianor Mallet died the said John Mallet then being within age and upon Office found in the County of Devon for other Lands holden of the Queen in Capite by Knights Service was for it in Ward to the Queen Afterwards the said John Mallet died without Issue during his Nonage and the Lands aforesaid therby descended to his said two Sisters to whom also descended other Lands in the County of Devon holden of the Queen in Capite by Knights Service conveyed also by the same Fine in like manner as the Lands in North Petherton the said Christian then being of the age of 22. years and the said Elianor of the age of 15. yeares upon which the said Christian and Elianor 12. Novemb. 31 Eliz. tendred their Livery before the Master of the Wards and before the Livery sued the said Christian took the said Robert Bret to husband and the said Elianor took to husband one Arthur Ackland after which in the Utas of the Purification of our Lady 32 Eliz. the said Robert Bret and Christian his wife levied a Fine of the said Tenements in North-petherton amongst others to George Bret and John Pecksey Sur conusance de droit come ceo que ils ont de lour done by the name of the Moyety of the Mannor of North petherton c. with warranty against them and the Heirs of the said Christian against all men who tendred it by the same Fine to the said Robert Bret and Christian and the Heirs Males of their bodies the remainder to the Heirs Males of the body of the said Christian the remainder over to the right Heirs of the said Robert Bret which Fine was engrossed the same Term of S. Hillary and the first Proclamation was made the 12th day of February in the same Term the second the first day of June in Easter Term 32 Eliz. The third the 8th day of July in Trinity Term next And the fourth Proclamation was made the 4th day of October in Michaelmas Term next after And the said Christian died without Issue of her body The 9th day of February 32 Eliz. between the hours of 3. 7. in the afternoon of the same day And the 22. of March 32 Eliz. the said Robert Bret by his writing indented dated the same day and year for a certain summ of money to him paid by the Queen bargained and sold gave and granted the said Teuements to the
grants over the Reversion the first Lessee dies and the Grantee of the Reversion brings a Writ of Covenant against his Executors In which case there were two points 1. Whether these words And the said Lessee his Executors Administrators and Assigns shall from time to time c. make a Covenant or Whether Covenant lies against the Executor of a Lessee after assignment no. 2. Whether as this case is it will lye against the Executors of the Lessee As to the first point it was agreed that it is a Covenant for being by Indenture it is the words of both parties and it is more strong being in the case of the Queen Haughton laid that 25 H. 8. Tit. Covenant Covenant will lye against a Lessee after assignment but Debt lyeth not for Rent after the Lessee hath accepted the Assignee for his Tenant and therfore it seems that by the expresse words of the Covenant that the Action lies Doderidge Iustice contra for between the Queen and the Lessee there is privity of Contract and also of Estate so that the Queen her Heirs and Successors might have had an action against the Lessee or his Executors upon the privity of Contract and where the Lessee ●ssigns over the privity of Contract remains but the privity of Estate is gone to the Assignee and now when the Queen grants over the Reversion the privity of Contract is utterly determined wherby the Action of Covenant cannot be maintained against the first Lessee or his Executors who are more remote to which Mountague chief Iustice agreed see 2 H. 4. 6. 6. H. 4. 1. and Co. lib. 3. Walkers case and the Iudgments there cited Et adjournator The same Term in the same Court. Bennet versus Westbeck THe Case was thus Tenant for life Remainder for life Reversion in Fee he in Remainder for life gives his Deed of Demise with the assent of the first Tenant for life upon the Land to a stranger in the absence of the Lessor and said that he surrendred to him in Reversion And it was said that this Surrender being without Deed was not good to him who was absent and to confirm it the case was put out of 27 H. 8. Where Mountague chief Iustice said that if a Feoffment be made to four and Livery is made to one in the absence of the other but in name of all if it be by Deed this shall enure to all but if it be without Deed then only to him to whom the Livery was made So here this Surrender doth not enure to him in the Reversion being absent Whether Tenant for life in Remainder may surrender without Deed. But Non aliocatur for the sole point now in question was whether he in Remainder for life can surrender without Deed and as to it this Rule was taken viz. That that which cannot commence without Deed cannot be granted without Deed as a Rent Reversion common Advowson c. as 19 H. 6. 33. 14 H 7. 3. 1 2. Ph. Mar. 110. 22. Ass Pl. 16. But in this case this took effect by Livery and not by Deed and therfore might be determined without Deed. Mountague and Haughton agreed that it might be surrendred without Deed because it had its beginning without Deed but it could not be granted over without Deed. Doderidge Iustice said that it could not be surrendred without Deed but he said that Tenant in possession may or Tenant for life and he in Remainder together may surrender to him in the Reversion but this shall innure as two severall Surrenders first of him in Remainder to the Tenant for life and then by the Tenant for life to him in the Reversion Crook Iustice agreed with Doderidge for the Estate of him in Possession is an Estoppell to the Surrender so that it could not be surrendred without Deed. The same Term in the same Court. Thurman versus Cooper IN an Ejectione firmae brought by John Thurman against William Cooper upon the whole matter the case was thus Lands were given to a man and woman who afterwards inter-marry and to their Heirs and Assigns Habendum to them and to the Heirs of their two bodies engendered the remainder to them and the Survivor of them with warranty to them and their Heirs and Assigns for ever And the question was what Estate this shall be whether an Estate-tail or Fee-simple or a Fee-tail with a simple Expectant And it was said that this shall be an Estate-tail only for the Habendum qualifies the generall words precedent and with this agrees Perkins 35. b. and Co. lib. 8. 154. b. Althams case But it was answered and resolved by the whole Court that this is a Fee-tail with a Fee-simple expectant and they observed these Rules 1. That every Deed shall be taken most strong against him that made it 2. That every Deed shall be construed according to the intent of the maker so that all the parts may be effectuall if they can stand together with the Rules of Law 40 E. 3. 5 Percy saith that it is a Fee-simple 21 H. 6. 7. that it is an Estate-tail with a Fee-simple expectant Dyer 160. and Plow Paramore and Yardleys case the Law shall make an order of words where there is no order put by the parties and the words after the Remainder limited are Tenendum de Capitalibus Dominis feodi c. and therfore it ought to be a Fee-simple for if it were a Fee-tail he should hold of the Donor as it is in Co. lib. 6. Sir John Molins case and other Books And although the Warranty cannot inlarge an Estate yet this expresses his intent to passe a Fee-simple and the Law shall make a construction that the Fee-tail shall precede upon which the Fee-simple shall be expectant according to that which is before said in Paramore and Yardleys case Doderidge If the Habendum had been to a stranger the Premisses had been but a Tail as 7 H. 4. for otherwise the Habendum shall be void But if Land be given to one and his Heirs viz. In Tail or if the said Donce dye without Issue of his body this had been but an Estate-tail only because it immediatly checks and confirms the Premisses to which Haughton agreed Et adjournator The same Term in the same Court. Powels Case POwel an Vtter-Barister of the Temple and also Town-Clark of Plimoth brought an Action upon the Case against for these Words That he was a Puritan Knave a precise Knave a bribing Knave a corrupted Knave c. words The Defendant supposing that the Plaintiff had wronged him in the Court of Plimoth said that he was a Puritan Knave a precise Knave a bribing Knave a corrupted Knave and that he would make him answer for that which he had done in another place And after Verdict for the Plaintiff it was now moved in Arrest of Iudgment that the words were not actionable because he doth not scandalize him in his Profession by which he acquires his
Sheriff of another County then where the occasion brought or by Warrant of a Iustice of Peace of another County for matter of the Peace and the like which are not like to the case of Partridge who was be●ten in the County of Glocester by Sir Henry Pole for which he brought his Action in London And Sir Hen. Pole would have justified by Assault of the Plaintiff in the County of Glocester with a tr●verse that he was not guilty in London But it was then ruled in this Court that he could not do it to oust the Plaintiff to sue in London but in such a case he might have alledged that the Assault was done in London because it was also a thing transitory of which they shall take notice there and so help himself if the matter had been true But in the case at the Bar if the speciall matter alledged in the forraign County be false as here the Plaintiff may maintain his Action and traverse the special matter alledged by the Defendant And so a traverse in such a case may be upon a Traverse when falsity is used to oust the Plaintiff of that benefit which the Law gives him Hillary Term 38 Eliz. Wood versus Matthews 1. IN a writ of Error brought by Owen Wood against Griffeth Matthews upon a judgment given in the common Pleas the case was briefly thus The Issue in the Common Pleas was whether one were taken by a Cap. ad satisfaciendum or not and upon the triall therof at the Nisi prius the Jury found for the Plaintiff in this Action to wit that the party was not taken by the said Capias and upon the back of the Pannell entred dicunt per Quer. but on the back of the Postea the Clark of the Assises certified the Pannell thus to wit That the Jury say that no Capias was awarded which was otherwise then was put in Issue or found by the Jury and the Roll of the Record was according to the Postea and upon this Judgment given for the said Matthew then Plaintiff upon which amongst other Errors this variance between the Issue and Verdict was assigned for Error and after deliberation had upon this point and this matter alledged by the Defendant in the Writ of Error and certified out of the Common Pleas the Court awarded as to this point that the Record sent up out of the Common Pleas by the Writ of Error shall be amended according to that which was endorsed on the back of the Pannell for the endorsement upon the Pannell is the Warrant for the certifying of the Postea a●d so this Warrant over to him that makes the Entry in the Roll And therfore wheras it was alledged that the Postea was amended in the Common Pleas aft●r the Record removed it was holden to be well done there for although the Record were removed by the Writ of Error yet the Nisi prius the Postea and the like remain still there as it is of the Warrant of Attorney and the like And if the Postea had not been amended there but sent up with that which was endorsed upon the Pannel all shal be amended here according to that which was indorsed upon the Pannel and according to this there was a Presid●nt shewn Tr. 35. H. 8. between Whitfeild and Wright where the Issue was whether a quantity of Grain were delivered between two Feasts and endorsed upon the Pannel Dicunt pro quaer and yet the Postea certified and the Rolls also made that the delivery was made ad festa and upon this matter alledged in Banco Regis and the Error in this point assigned and certified out of the Common Pleas the Record removed by the Writ of Error was by award of the Court amended and the word Ad razed out and the word Inter written in lieu of it according as it appeareth it ought to have been by the Note upon the back of the Pannel And the like amendment was made lately in the Checquer Chamber upon Error brought there upon a Iudgment given in Banco Regis where the Iudorsment upon the back of the Writ was pro Quer. and the Postea and Roll was that the Plaintiff was guilty and there amended the last Term.

The same Term in the same Court Hide versus Whistler WIlliam Hide made a Lease for years of certain Lands to Whistler excepting Exception of all Wood under-wood Coppices and Hedgerows to the Lessor all his Wood and under-wood Coppices and Hedgerows and in a Replevin the question was whether the Soil shall passe ther by for the Lessee put his Beasts into a Coppice and the Lessor distrained them wherupon c. And the words of the exception were further standing growing and being in and upon the Premisses And the Lessee covenanted to make Fences but if the Lessor made new Coppices that the Lessee should net make Fences about them And it was said that a Coppice signifies a parcell of Land fenced for the safegard of young Trees And it was said for A Coppice what it is the Plaintiff that Premisses are Pre dimissa and by these words growing and being in the Premisses it shall be intended that the Soil did not passe for it is pre-demised But it was resolved that the Soil it self was excepted by the exception of the Wood and Coppice 14 H. 8. 1. The Bishop of Londons case Co. lib. 5. Ives case and lib. 11.

Talbot versus Sir Walter Lacen IN a Writ of Covenant brought by Margaret Talbot against Sir Walter Lacen upon a Lease made by the Plaintiff to the Defendant of a Park Covenant to leave the Premistes in repatations at the end of the Term. c. for five years if she should live so long in which the Lessee covenants for him his Executors and Assigns to keep the Premisses in good Reparations and so to leave them at the end of the Term and also to deliver to the Plaintiff upon notice given four Bucks and four Does in season during the life of the Plaintiff in every of the said years And after the expiration of the aforesaid term of five years she brought a Writ of Covenant and assigned the breach because that in the end of the term he committed Wast and because that after the end of the term the Defendant refused to deliver the Deer And albeit the words of the delivery of the Deer are during the life of the Plaintiff yet they are also every of the aforesaid years and therforeit was resolved that she shall not have them during her life in this case And for the other point it was objected that in Fine termini was incertain for it may extend after the term but Ad finem termini had been sufficient Old book of Entries 169. for when he covenants that at the end of the term he would leave the Premisses in reparations and Ad finem termini he did wast this ought of necessity to be intended a breach of the Covenant and therfore it was adjudged that the action of Covenant well lies Mich 16. Jac. In the Kings Bench. Havergall and Hares Case IN this Case which see before fol. 1. b. four points were observed 1. Whether Fisher the Assignee of the Rent were such a person who Before fol. 1. b shall take benefit of the entry 2. When 10 l. is only in arrear whether the Rent of 20 l. shall be said in arrear 3. Whether these advantages which were first granted with the Rent may be granted over 4. When the Vse shall rise whether upon the first Indenture of the grant of the Rent or afterwards For the case was that the Grantee of the Rent of 20 l. covenanted by the same Indenture that if the said rent of 20 l. were in arrear for the space of twenty daies after any day of payment that the Grantee shall distrain and if there be not sufficient distresse upon the Land or if there be a Rescous Replevin or Pound-breach that then it shall be lawfull for the Grantee and his Heirs to enter into the same Land and to retain it untill he be satisfied And the said Rent was granted 9 Jac. it was arrear 11 Jac. the Fine for the better assurance of the Rent was levied 12 Jac. and 13 Jac. the Distresse was taken There were four Causes which give an entry and upon the Distresse and Replevin brought the Assignee enters As to the three first points it was resolved by the whole Court 1. That Fisher was such an Assignee who shall take benefit of the Entry 2. When 10 l. is only arrear the Rent of 20 l. shall be said arrear wherupon there shall be a Title of Entry 3. That these advantages granted with the Rent may be granted over And as to the fourth point it was holden by Mountague and Crook that the Vse riseth upon the first Indenture and not upon the entry after the Replevin brought although the words are that then it shall be lawfull for the Grantee and his Heirs to enter wherby the use is only awaked as it is in the principall point in Shelleys case and although a Fine is afterwards
