recovery here the Term is saved and yet for the time the lessee was seised to his own use but because that the fine was Preparatory to inable him to suffer the recovery now in this case after the recovery suffered that will look back to the first agreement of the parties and so the Statute hath saved the Term and for that reason if the Statute do save a Term which is of small account much more a freehold and so he prayed judgement for the defendant see more after The case of Hilliard and of Sanders entred Mich. 20. Jac. Rot. 1791. HIlliard brought a replevin against Michael Sanders for the taking of Beasts in a place called Kingsbury and the Defendant avowed and shewed that Sir Ambrose Cave was seised in his demeasne as of fee of Kingsbury where the place in which c. is parcel and 14. Feb. 16. Eliz. granted a rent charge of 42. l. 8. s. 4. d. to one Thomas Bracebridg and to the heirs of Thomas upon Alice to be ingendred the remainder to the right heirs of Thomas and Thomas had issue John and Thomas died and then Iohn his son died having issue Anne the wife of the Avowant in whose right he avowed for the rent of half a year c. 21. l. 4. s. 2. d. due at W. in Bar of which avowrie the Plantiff pleaded that true it is that Sir Ambrose Cave was seised of the Mannor c. and he made the grant according and that Sir Ambrose Cave died seised and that the said Mannor descended to Mary his daughter as daughter and heir to him who was married to one Mr. Henry Knowles and shewed that he was seised and then shewed that the 12. Iac. it was agreed between the said Sir Thomas Bracebridg and Alice his wife Mich. 22. Jac. C. P. and the said Henry Knowles and mary his wife that for the extinguishment and final determination of the said rent that Thomas and Alice should levie a fine to Henry and Mary of the said lands and Tenements aforesaid by the name of the Maniior of Kingsbury 300. Acres of land and of divers other things but no mention was made of the rent and this fine was upon Conusance of right as that which they had c. and also they released all the right which they had in the land to Henry and to Mary and then shewed that after the death of Mary this land descended to two daughters one being now married to the Lord Willoughby the other to the Lord Paget under whom the Plantiff claimed to which the avowant said by protestation that there was no such agreement and for plea that the rent was not comprised and upon that it was demurred in Law and now Serjeant Attoe this Term argued for the Plantiff and the substance of his argument was in this manner Attoe said the case was Tenant in tail of a rent charge agreed with the Tenant of the land to extinguish that and that he would levie a fine of the land to the land Tenant which is upon Conusance of right and upon release which fine is levied accordingly whether this cuts off the tail of the rent and I hold that it will and I do not finde any opinion in all the Law against this but only the opinion of Thornton in Smith and in Stapletons case in Plowden which I do not esteem to be a binding authoritie and the case is Tenant in tail of a rent disseised the land Tenant and levied a fine with proclamation of the same fine to a stranger now said Thornton this shall not bar the issue in tail of the rent because the fine was only levied of the land and he cited this to prove another case which is Tenant in tail of land accepted a fine of a stranger as that which he had c. and he rendered to him a rent and he said that his issue may avoid that rent and this case I grant because the rent was not intailed but for the other case I openly denie that and there is much difference between those two cases for a fine levied of the land may include the rent as well as the land but it is impossible that a fine of rent should include the land and our case here is pleaded to be of the land and of the rent and a fine of the land may carry the rent inclusively because it is a fine of a thing intailed yea it is not a new thing that rent should be carried inclusively by way of extinguishment in the case of a feofment and then á fortiori in a fine which is a feofment upon Record and especially when it is levied on purpose to extinguish the rent and the Statute of fines is more strong for that is of any lands Tenements and hereditaments any wayes intailed to any person c. but this rent is an hereditament intailed to the person who levied the fine and this which is carried inclusively is within the Statute nay if a man had nothing in the land yet if it was intailed to him who levied the fine this shall bar the estate tail for ever as if Tenant in tail made a feofment to G. S. and after that he did levie a fine to a stranger of the same land that in this case the issue shall never avoid this and yet neither the Conusor nor the Conusee had any thing in the land and see for Archers case Cook 3. where the issue in tail levied a fine in the life of his ancestor and a good bar and yet there he had but a possibilitie and so was the case of Mark-williams Mich. 19. Jac. Rot. 763. C. B. where all the distinctions were made for Henry Mark-williams was heir apparant to his Mother who was Tenant in tail and he levied a fine in the life of his Mother and died without issue and then his Mother died and it was ruled that this did not bar the sister heirs because she may have that and never make mention of her brother but in our case if the rent had been granted in fee it had been no question but that a meer release will extinguish that and I think a fine with proclamation is as forcible to extinguish a rent which is intailed as a release is for a rent in fee another reason is this is a fine directly of the rent though this is by the name of land and also this is upon Conusance of right c. and also in that he released and remised to the Conusees all his right in the said land but a case out of Bendloes Reports may be objected Tenant in tail accepted a fine of the land and rendred that for life ruled the issue is not barred but first I do not allow this case to be good law but if it be good law the reason is because he accepted only a fine of the land and for that it only extends to that and not to the rent as if a man is seised
ought to maintain the award but to shew the breach for it shall be otherwise if it be found against him and then Hendon answered to the other exception that this is not for direct usury but is rather for the damage which he sustained by the forbearance of the money and yet if it were for interest it is good and then as to that which now had been agreed by my brother Bridgman that contracts and obligations for usury are good I say then by the same reason an award for that is good for whatsoever a man may contract for the same thing may be awarded if the contract will bear that and usury is not malum in se but only malum prohibitum and is good by our law and here in this case though the Arbitrator was deceived in the summe yet after the award made it is altogether certain and an implied recompence is sufficient in this case but the Court said that the casting up of the accompts did not make an award for it is not a good Calculation but the ending of the controversies that doth make the award but yet the opinion of the Court in this case was that the award was good for an Arbitrement shall not be taken absolutely upon the bare words and the Court did command the parties to come before them upon the morrow in the Treasury and as it seems this was for mediation to make an agreement for the opinion seemed to be for the Plantiff The case of Hilliard and Sanders argued by the Court. IUstice Harvey this Term did argue the case of Hilliard and Sanders which see before and after a brief recital of the case he said that his opinion was that the avowant shall not have return because that by the fine of the lands the rent is extract and I am induced to be of this opinion by two things the first is the agreement and t●e other is the favourable exposition of the Statute of fines to settle repose and quiet and I will first shew the efficacie of fines at the common law 21. Ed. 4. the Pryor of Binghams case it is laid for a ground and rule in law if a thing be contained in a fine either expresly or implicitly this is very good and so is 44. Ed. 3. 22. 37. H. 6. 5. for a fine is no more then an agreement and therefore it is called in latin Concordia and then see if by any words you may pass this rent by the fine and though the word rent is not there yet if it be so infolded in the lands that is good with that it is very good and for that 3. H. 7. 16. 17. 21. H. 7. proves that by a feofment of the land the rent doth pass and wherefore not by fine then and this shall be within the Statute of 4. H. 7. and 32. H. 8. and a case may be out of the Statute of 32. H. 8. and yet be within the Statute of the 4. H. 7. as the 2. Ed. 3. in Dyer though the feme after the death of the husband she may enter upon the discontinues of the husband yet if she do not within 5 years she shall be barred and now you see that the construction of these Statutes was alwayes to settle repose and quietness for if such a construction should be made according to the opinion of Chornton in Smith and Stapletons case then it will be mischievous and for his opinion it was only in the way of arguing and yet I conceive he had the good opinion of the Reporter and without all question it is a case of as hard a construction as that is of Archers case where the heir who nothing had in the land in the life of his father did levie a fine this is a bar for ever and the reason is because it is of a thing which is intailed and he cited a case in Bendloes Reports where a discontinuee was disseised by Tenant in tail who levied a fine and the discontinuee entred and then proclamations passed that in this case the issue was barred truly I do agree the case of 36. H. 8. that that a fine levied of land did not bar him who had title of Common or a way the reason is because there is no privitie but in our case there is a privitie and by Margaret Podgers case a Coppiholder is within this Statute and in our case the rent passeth especially in regard of the agreement as in the Lord Cromwels case and he cited a case primo Jacobi between Gage and Selby in an ejectione firme where Gage was Tenant in tail and he levied a fine to I. S. in fee and after he levied another fine to the use of himself for life the remainder over and his brother brought a writ of error to reverse the first fine and ruled that he may not for the second fine had barred him of any writ of error and so I conclude the fine had extinguished the rent The argument of Justice Hutton to the contrary HUtton contrary the fine had not barred the rent in which I will consider the nature of fines at the Common Law and they were of mightie and great esteem and force as appears by the great solemnitie which is used in them as is prescribed in the Statute of fines 18. Ed. 1. de modo Levandi fines and he agreed that such a fine by Tenant in fee simple will pass that inclusively for by the release of all his right in the land a Signiorie is gone I agree also that a fine is but an agreement but yet it must work according to the nature of the thing as upon a writ of Measne or of right of advowson a fine may be levied and yet it is not levied of the lands but of the advowson or Signiorie and so if the writ of covenant be one thing and the agreement of another thing then it is not good and first I will prove that at the Common law fines have been rejected when the writ of covenant did not contain the thing of which the fine is to be be levied and if at the Common law a fine was levied of rent there ought to be a writ of covenant of that 18. Ed. 2. fines 123. and there the rule is given that it is against reason to hold covenant of that which never was and the rent there never was before but ought to begin then and yet it is clear a man may create a rent by fine but he shall not have a writ of covenant of that when it was not in esse before and because the concord may not varie from that therefore it was not received 38. Ed. 3. 17. Knevet put the rule that a fine may not be of more then is in the writ of covenant and when a fine is properly levied of that it is by way of release Fitz. fine 100. and so I conceive here the rent doth not pass Secondly here no man may plead that any fine is levied of
covenanted with Sir Edward Sackvil to levy a fine to him of that land before the fine acknowledged the eldest brother dyed and the question was whether the youngest shall be compelled to levy the fine and presidents were commanded to be searched concerning that matter Note that it was said that where a commission issued out of the Court of wards to 4 persons or to any 2 of them and one of them refuse to be a Commissioner and the other 3 sit as Commissioners and he who refused was sworn and examined by them as a witness and ruled that this is good for though he refused to be a Commissioner yet he is not excluded to be sworn as a witness In evidence to the Iury the case was that Tenant in taile bargained and sold his land to I. S. and his heires and I. S. sold to the heire of the Tenant in taile being of full age and Tenant in taile died and the heire in taile claimed to hold his estate and the doubt was whether he was remitted or no Hobert was of opinion that after the death of the Tenant in taile that the heire is remitted for if Tenant in taile bargain and sell his land the issue in taile may enter and where his entrie is lawful there if he happ● the possession he shall be remitted Hutton and Warberton Iustices contrary For at the first by the bargain and sale the son had fee and then the estate of the son may not be changed by the death of the father he being of full age when he took this estate and this was in an Ejectione firme of land which concerns Sir Henry Compton and the Lord Morley and Mounteagle White against Williams VVHite brought an action of accompt against Williams as his Bayliff to his damages 100. l. the Defendant pleaded he never was his Bayliff and it was found against him and the Iudgement was given that he should render an accompt and at the day the Defendant made default Ideo consideratum est per Curiam quod Querens recuperet versus predict Defendent 42. l. 10. s. and upon that the Defendant brought a writ of error and assigned for error that the Court gave Iudgement of the value without inquiring of the value and it was holden by Gaudy and Fenner only present that the Iudgement ought to be given which the Plantiff had counted of Baron Altham contrarie for the Court may in discretion give a lesser summe Hill 43. Eliz. B. R. vide 14. E 3. Accompt 109. 20. E. 3. 17. Sir George Topping against King VVA st was assigned in the cutting of Elmes and other Trees to such a price and Iudgement was given for the Plantiff by nihil dicit and a writ of inquiry of dammages issued upon that and the Iury found to the dammages of 8. s. and upon this Davies the Kings Serjeant moved to have a new writ of inquiry and that the old writ shall not be returned for the dammages are too litle Winch said all is confessed by the nihil dicit Hobert The Iury here have found the value and presidents were commanded to be searched and Hobert said that if an information is for ingrossing of 1000 quarters of corn and Iudgement is given by nihil dicit and a writ of enquiry issues which findes him guilty of 100. yet this is good And not that at another day the case was moved again it was between Sir George Topping and King and it was said if a man recover in waste by nihil dicit and a writ of inquiry issues the Iury in this case may inquire of the dammages but not of the place wasted for this is confessed and so are the presidents according and Hobert said if the Defendant is bound by the nihil dicit as to the place wasted for what cause shall not he be bound as to the dammages and by all the Court if the jury finde dammages only to 8. s. the Plantiff shall not have Iudgement for it ought to be above 40. s. Hob. this is in the discretion of the Court in this case and it was also said in this case that upon the grant of all the trees and after the grantee cut them and new ones grow upon the slumps which in time will be trees that in this case the grantee shall have them also by Hobert Wetherly against Wells in an action for words VVEtherly against Wells in an action upon the case for these words thou hast stollen hay from Mr. Bells racks and upon not guilty pleaded it was found for the Plantiff and now it was moved in arrest of Iudgement because he had not shewed what quantity was of that and perchance it may be of so little a value that it is not fellony and the rather because it is hay from the Racks but Hobert contrary that Iudgement shall be given against the Defendant for the Plantiff for it hath been adjudged lately in this Court that where a man was charged with petty Larceny to steal under the value of 12. d. that an action of the case will lie for the discredit is not in the value but the taking of that with a fellonious intent and yet it had been adjudged in this Court that where one said of another thou art a thief and hast stolen my trees that in this case an action will not lie but this is by reason of the subsequent words trees for it is said Arbor dum crescit lignum dum crescere nescit And Winch said that it had been adjudged actionable to say thou art a thief and hast stolen my corn and yet perchance not exceed 2. or 3. grains and Warberton said that it had been adjudged in the Kings Bench that where one said thou art a thief and stollest the corn out of my field that no action will lie The Earl of Northumberland and the Earl of Devon NOte that in the case of the Earle of Northumberland and the Earle of Devon execution issued out for dammages recovered against the Bayliff of the Earle of Northumberland by the name of I. S. of D. and there was I. S. the father and I. S. the son and the father being dead the son issued his writ of Idemptitate nominis and he prayed to have a supersedeas and Warberton demanded of Brownlow if he had any such president to award a supersedeas in such case who answered no and Warberton and Hutton being only present said that they will advise of that Sir George Sparke Prescription IN a Replevin for the taking of a horse in 5. acres of land in such a place and the Defendant avowed as Bayliff to Sir George Spark and shewed that Sir George Spark and all those whose estate he had in the land had used time beyond the memory of man to have herbage and pasturage in all the 5. acres when that was not sowen and upon this plea the Plantiff demurred Ashley argued for the Plantiff that the prescription is void and this is not
years then this is void by resignation and so is the case of Packhurst that when he resignes during the years of the Commendam the Patron shall have that and not the King and so also my opinion is clear that if he had died within the 6. years limitted by the Commendam that the King shall not have that for then it is void by death and not by the assumption of the Bishoprick which book proves directly that a Commendam may be aswel for years as for life but yet I do not hold that upon those temporary Commendams if the Bishop continued Parson during the years and made no Act to impeach that then is a void cause S. the assumption of the Bishoprick and then when that is determined the supension is determined and it is void by the original cause S. by the assumption of the Bishoprick and this Commendam doth not turn the second or first Patron to any prejudice for the incumbent is still in by the presentation of the Patron and the determination of the Commendam is not any cause of the avoidance of the benefice but this is quasi non causa which is causa stolida as the Logicians do term it but in this case the assumption is the cause of the Cession and it is like to the case of 25. Ed. 3. 47. where the King brought a quare Impedit against the Arch-Bishop of York for a Prebendary vide the case and ruled in that case that the confirmation of the King had not taken away his title to present and the reason was because the confirmation had not filled the Church but continued that full which was full before and here this temporarie Commendam may not restrain the King to present afterwards for this is not a presentation and therefore may not take away the title of the King and here the Plantiff hath not well expressed it for he hath not shewed in this Court that the presentation of the King was lawful neither that Chardon held that by vertue of the Commendam for all the 6. years but only that the Church became void by the Laws of England and that is not sufficient and then if all before were for the Plantiff yet the question is whether he hath lost his turn and I think that he hath omnis argumentatio est à notoribus and the first is better known then the second and the second may not be the first and there when the devise gave him the first it is idle to say that he shall have the second for that departs from the meaning of the words and in every grant the law implies quantum in se est and no man may say that the devisor did intend to warrant that from antient Titles and so the Lord Hobert concluded his argument and said his opinion was that the Plantiff shall be barred and judgement was commanded to be entred accordingly Mich. 22. Jac. C.P. Michaelmas Term in the two and twentieth year of King James in the Common Pleas. DAvenport moved for the amendment of a Record where a recovery was suffered of lands in Sutton in the Countie of York and the indenture of bargain and sale was by the right name and the indenture of uses by the right name but the writ of entrie was of the Mannor of Sulton and upon the examination of the parties to be recovery that the recovery was to no other uses then is expressed and mentioned in the said indenture this was to be amended Sheis against Sir Francis Glover SHeis brought an action upon the case against Sir Francis Glover and shewed for the ground of his action that where one Harcourt was bound to the Plantiff in a Recognizance c. upon which the Plantiff took forth an elegit and the Defendant being the Sheriff of the Countie took an inquisition upon that upon which it was extended but he refused to deliver this to the Plantiff but yet he returned that he had delivered that and upon that he brought his Action and upon not guiltie pleaded it was found for the Plantiff and now it was moved in arrest of judgement by Serjeant Hendon and the reason he shewed was because he laid his action in an improper Countie for though the return was in Middlesex where the Action was brought yet because the land lies in Oxfordshire where the seisin ought to be delivered the place is Local and for that the Action ought to be brought there and now Serjeant Breamston argued that the Action was well brought in Middlesex for this being but a personal thing he may bring that in either of the Counties as 14. Ed. 4. 13. Ed. 4. 19. expresly in the point and to the second objection that had been made that an Averment may not be against the return of the Sheriff to that Breamston answered that in an other Action an Averment may be against the return of the Sheriff though not in the same Action as 5. Ed. 4. but it was agreed to have a new trial by the preservation of the Iustices for otherwise it seemed the opinion of the Court was that the Plantiff shall have judgement upon the reasons urged by Serjeant Breamston Mary Baker against Robert Baker an Infant in Dower MAry Baker brought a writ of Dower against Robert Baker an Infant who did appear by his Gardian and he pleaded that his father who was husband of the demandant was seised of a Messuage and of land in Socage and devised that to the demandant for her joynture in full satisfaction of all Dower and he shewed that after the death of his father the demandant did enter into the said Messuage and land and was seised of that by vertue of the devise and to that the demandant did replie by protestation that he did not devise and for plea confessed the seisin of the husband and her own entrie but she further shewed that the Infant who was then Tenant was but of the age of 14. years and that she entred as Gardian in Socage to the Infant and disagreed to accept of that by vertue of the devise and traversed the entire and the agreement and it was said by the Court that his bar is good though it had been more pregnant to have alledged that she entred virtute legationis praedictae and so was seised and after it was said that the Replication was very good without the traverse for this was not expresly set down but that was but meerly the consequence of the plea which in veritie was not traversable Hickman against Sir William Fish HIckman had judgement for 600. l. and 10. l. damages against Sir William Fish and he acknowledged satisfaction for 410. l. of the said debt and damages and after there was an agreement between them that if Sir William did not pay the residue by such a day that then it should be lawful for Hickman to take out execution against the said Fish without suing of any scire facias though it was after

simple shall alwayes be supposed to have continuance if the contrary is not shewed to that he answered that is not so for the book of the 7. H. 7. 8. if in barre of assise the Tenant said that I. S. was seised and gave this is not good because he had not shewed quod fit seisitus existens dedit c. which being in a plea in barre is more strong then in a declaration to prove that a fee shall not be intended to have continuance without an express allegation and so he concluded that the declaration is naught but by Hobert Winch and Hutton it is very good notwithstanding this objection and Winch cited the 13. Eliz. in Ejectione firme where the life of the person was not cleerly alleadged but the declaration only was that the lessor was and yet is seised which was a sufficient averment of the life of the person and so the declaration is good and another exception was taken to the declaration by Hitcham Serjeant because that the Plantiff had declared that the Defendant had made conney borroughs and with the aforesaid conneys had eat up the grass where he had not alleadged any storeing of the coney borroughs before with coneys and then it is impossible they should eat up the grass to the prejudice of the Plantiff but to this it was answered by Serjeant Attoe that though the declaration as to that is naught yet the diging of the coney borroughs is to his prejudice and sufficient to maintaine the action which the Court granted and as to the matter in law Attoe argued for the Plantiff and recited the case to be that E. 3. granted to the Deane and Chapter of Windsor that they shall have free warren in the lands which yet they had not purchased and of which they were not seised at the time whether this is a good grant and shall extend to take effect after the purchase see Buckleys case and be argued that it is not a good grant and he put a difference between a warren and other priviledges which are flowers of the Crown which may be granted infuturo but a warren never was a flower of the Crown and for that reason a grant de bonis et cattallis fellon et fugitivorum may be granted and yet not be in esse at the time of the grant for it is a flower of the Crown and it is said 44. E. 3. 12. that the King may not grant a warren in other mens lands but only in the land of the grantee and upon this he concluded that this grant shall not extend to land after purchased and the rather because it is in the nature of a licence which shall be taken strictly see 21. H. 7. 1. 6. And Hobert chief Iustice said that this word demeans is derived of the French words en son manies and though the Lord of the mannor had the waste in his hands yet he had not the common and as to the confirmation by Ed. 4. they all agreed that this will confirm nothing to him but what was granted by E. 3. himself and then as to the licence pleaded that is of no effect for first the licence is pleaded to be made to one Sir Cha. Haydon and the Defendant did claime under him and this licence was made by the father which will not binde the son who had the land to which the common is appendant after the death of his father for a common may not be extinguished without deed and Hobert and all the Court agreed that the licence of the father will not binde the son and by the Court if nothing is shewed to the contrary within a week judgement shall be given for the Plantiff Davies against Turner DAvies brought a replevin against Turner and he declared of the taking in a place called the Holmes and the Defendant made conusance as bayliff to Sir George Bing for that one Clap held certain land of him by 20. s. rent and suite of Court and for the rent he avowed and alleadged seisin by the hands of Clap the Plantiff said that Chap held 40. acres of land by 9. s. rent fealty and suite of Court absque hoc that he held modo et forma and upon this it was demurred and the single point was this in auowry the Tenant alleadged c. and the question is whether he ought to traverse the tenure or the seisin and it was argued by Henden Serjeant that he ought to traverse the seisin and that the traverse of the tenure is not good and besides here is double matter for the conclusion sounds in barre of the avowry and in abatement of the avowry see a good case 18. H. 6. 6. for the falsness of the quantity of the land and the falsness of the quantity of rent the on goes in barre the other in abatement of the avowry 47. E. 3. 79. 5. H. 6. 4. and affirmed for good law And as to the second point he held the seisin to be traversable and not the tenure and first he said there was a difference between pleading in barre of avowry and in the abatement of the avowry for in barre of the avowry there the seisin is is not traversable by Frowick 21. H. 7. 73. which opinion he held for good law for it is agreed in Bucknels case Co. 9. he may not say that he held of a stranger absque hoc that the avowant was seised but otherwise it is when that goes in abatement of the avowry Secondly he said that the seisin is the principal thing and the principal thing ought to be traversed for if a man had seisin of many services seisin shall never be ayded till the Stat. of magna charta see Bucknels case Cook 9. and here the seisin is the most meterial thing and the most proper see 37. H. 6. Bro. Avowry 76. ne tiendra is no plea for a stranger to the avowry but he ought to answer to the seisin Thirdly the cause for which the seisin is traversable see a notable case per Danby 7. E. 4. 29. for the beginning of the services may be time beyond memory c. and for that reason may not be tried see 20. E. 4. 17. 22. H. 6. 3. 26. H. 6. 25. by Newton he may traverse the tenure Attoe contrary 13. H. 7. 25. to this it was answered that the number Rolle may not be found 5. H. 7. 4. 13. H. 6. 21. 21. H. 7. 22. by Frowick and Kingsmil Harvey to the contrary the case was that the Defendant made conusance as Bayliff to Sir George Bing for this that Chap held a messuage c. by certain rent and by suite of Court and the other said that he held 40. acres by 9. s. and suite of Court absque hoc that he held the messuage and the land modo et forma and he argued that it was a good traverse of the tenure and not double which was granted by Hobert and by Winch being only present and Hobert said true
of the obligation and so had disabled himself afterwards and the obligor is bound that a fine shall be leavied this is to be understood of a good and a lawfull fine and not a fine in name only and he put the case that I let for years and after Covenant to make a feofment to I. S. this lease for years is a breach of the Condition though at the time of the Covenant made the lease for years was made Iustice Winch thought the contrary for this disability is by the act of a stranger and for that the obligor may not take any certain notice of that and therefore if I am obliged to you that I. S. shall enfeoffe you of his Mannor and at the time I. S. had made a feoffement of two or three acres of the same Mannor yet if he enfeoffe you of that which he was seised at the time of the obligation this is a good performance of the Condition though that 2. or 3. acres were disjoyned from that before and so in this case the obligor being a stranger to the estate of I. S. if I. S. make such an estate as he had at the time of the obligation made this is sufficient upon which he concluded that the Plantiff shall not have judgement but afterward judgement was commanded to be entered for the Plantiff according to the opinion of Hobert and Hutton Hoels case HOels case upon a special verdict was to this effect a man was seised of 2. acres of land in fee and had 2. sones and he devised both the acres to his wife for life the remainder of one acre to his eldest son in fee the remainder of the other acre to his youngest son in fee upon this condition in manner and form following if either of my sonnes die before my depts and legacies are paid or before either of my sonnes enter into their part that then the longest liver shall have both parts to him and to his heires in fee and the devisor died and Hoel the Plantiff being the eldest sonne in the life of his mother released all his interest and his demand in this to his younger brother and the doubt was whether this condition was gone by this release and Attoe argued that it was gone for Littleton saith that every land may be charged one way or other see Anne Mayowes case Release Coo. 1. Albaines case power of revocation released see more of this afterwards Trin. 20. Jac. C. P. Whitgift aganist Sir Francis Barrington IN Replevin the Defendant avowed as Baliff to Sir Francis Barrington and that Whitgift the Plantiff held certaine land of Sir Francis Barrington by escuage et quendam reditum and that the said Sir Francis was seised by the hands of Whitgift his very Tenant and for homage he avowed and upon this the Plaintiff demurred first because he had avowed for homage and had not shewed how nor in what manner the homage is due whether in respect that the tenancy come to him by discent or by purchase and for that this general allegation is naught for by Hendon Serjeant all the presidents in such avowryes made mention of the title to the homage as 4. E. 4. in avowry for homage the tenure is shewed and a discent alleadged or a purchase of the land and in no book or in any president that he ever yet saw did he see such a general allegation in avowry for homage but he agreeth the book of the 44. E. 3. 42. if the avowry is upon tenant by the curtesie this general allegation is good but otherwise of a tenant in fee simple and for that he alledged the second E. 3. avowry in a replevin the Bishop avowed for homage due by the Plantiff and exception was taken because it was not shewed in whose time the death of the ancestor was whether in his own time or the time of his predecessor and ruled to be evill for his avowry being his title he ought to shew that in certaine and so in our case Hobert this case doth not prove our case for in our case prima facie it is certain to all intents and purposes and I cannot see how an avowry may be better made and Finch at the barre vouched a president in the book of entries title horse de son fee secondly where such a avowry as in our case is made and then Hendon moved that the avowrie is not good for he had shewed the tenure by homage and by escuage and rent de quo quidem redditu he was seised c. and this is also repugnant for when he said that he was seised of the rent by the hands of the Plaintiff this is a seisin of the homage as Bevils case is and then by his own shewing because the seisin of the rent is a seisin of the homage he shall not have the homage of the Plantiff Thirdly admitting this point against him and that the seisin of the rent is not seisin of the homage yet the pleading is not good for when he expresly alleadged seisin of the rent in this manner de quo quidem redditu he was seised this excluded the seisin of any other services but only of the rent which is expresly alleadged and therefore in our case he ought to have alleadged generally de quibus serviciis he was seised and to leave this to the construction of the Law and he vouched 13. H. 7. 31. Serjeant Harvy to the same intent for though perchance no good reason may be given wherefore the pleading shall be such and that the seisin of the homage ought to be expressed yet because all the presidents are so the course of pleading shall not be altered and all the presidents shew a seisin of the homage see the book of entries 597. and 598. Serjeant ●owse to the contrary the book of the 19. E. 2. Recovery 224. is that the alleadging of the seisin or escuage as in our case of tent is a sufficient avowry for homage and 29. H. 3. such an allegation of the seisin of rent was made in avowry for fealty and good Hutton if the book of the 19. E. 12. be as Towse had alleadged it is all one with our case Hobert seems the avoury is good notwithstanding this last exception for perchance he was not actually seised of the homage by the hands of the Tenant himself and then by his own shewing his avowry shall abate and he demanded of Brownlow if there were any such president of an avowry who answered no. Hobert if the continual pleading be as my brother Harvy had alleadged we will not alter the course of pleading but in my opinion in reason none may plead in better manner or form and Hutton being only present agreed and then Hobert commanded the presidents to be searched concerning that matter and Finch at the barre being of Councel with the avowant said that till the resolution in Bevils case it was a great question whether the seisin of the rent was the
seisin of the homage and therefore perchance it will be hard to finde my antient president they adjourned and at another day Hutton and Winch being only present judgement was given for the avowant against Whitgift and Hutton said that he had spoke with the other Iustices and they agreed Vpon a motion made by Towse the case was this a man made a lease for one year and so from year to year during the Will of the lessor and lessee rendring rent and the lessee died and the rent was behinde and by Winch being only present if the rent is behinde in the time of the lessee and he dies an action of debt is maintainable against his Executor in the detin●t only and so I conceive if that was behinde after his death he may have an action in the debt and the detinet or in the detinet only to which Brownlow agreed Secondly Winch said that when a man made a lease for a year and so from year to year at the pleasure of the parties that this is a lease for 3. years and not for two Thirdly he doubted if the lessee hold over his term so that he is tenant at sufferance what remedy the lessor had for his rent Vpon the reading of a record the case was that a Scire facias issued against the land Tenant to have execution of a judgement given against Ferdinando Earl of Darby in the 15. Eliz. and the Defendant pleaded that a long time before the said Ferdinando any thing had in the land one Edward Earl of Darby was seised of the land and being so seised 3. Mar. infeoffed I. S. to the use of the Lord Strange and his wife in tail the remainder over to the said Ferdinando and made the said Ferdinando heire to the estate ta●le and pretended that by this meanes the land should not be liable to this judgement because it was intailed to Ferdinando and of such estate he died seised the Plantiff traversed the feofment made by Edw. Earl of Darby and the jury found that the feofment was made by Edward Earl of Darby to the same persons as the Defendant had pleaded but this was to the use of the feoffor for life the remainder over to the Lord Strange and his wife the remainder as before and whether this shall be intended the same Feofment which the Defendant had pleaded was the question because the estate for life was omitted and upon the special verdict that was the question and Attoe said that if the jury had found this feofment made to other feoffees though the estate had agreed this should be found against the Defendant and Winch Iustice said that there was such estate found as had taken away the execution or extent and the estate for life is not material but it was adjourned till another day A man Covenanted to make such assurance as shall be devised by the counsel of the Plantiff so the same assurance be made within the county of Norff. or the Citty of Norwich and the Plantiff assigned the breach and shewed that in this case his Councel devised that a fine should be leavied of the same land which was not done and it was moved by Serjeant Attoe that in this case the breach was not well laid because he had not shewed where his councel devised that the fine should be leavied In the case of a prohibition in case of a libel in the Ecclesiastical Court for the tithes of Cattles the Plantiff alleadged that those Cattle of which Tithes were demanded are for his Dairy and for the plough and Winch being only present said that the parson shall not have Tithes of such Cattle but if he bred up Cattle to sell it is otherwise secondly the Plantiff in the prohibition alleadged that time beyond memory the parishoners had paid a half peny for the Tithe of a Calf and a penny for a Cow and that upon a day limitted they use to bring this to the Church and to pay this to the Vicar and now the Vicar had libelled in the spiritual Court against them to compel them to bring it home to his house and Winch said that this is no occasion of a prohibition for they agree in the modus but vary in the place of payment and this is not matter of substance and for that reason no prohibition will lie Vpon the reading of a record the case was that the father made a feofment to the use of himself for life the remainder to his son and his wife and to the heires of the body of the son and this was for a joynture for his wife and the father died and the son also died and whether this was a good joynture was the question for all this matter was pleaded in barre of dower brought by the wife and it was ruled to be no good joynture for the feme notwithstanding that the father died in the life of his son and Hutton said if a man made a feofment to the use of himself for life the remainder to his Executors for years the remainder to his wife for a joynture this will be no good joynture within the Statute of joyntures though the feme here had the immediate franktenement In an action of debt against an Administrator who pleads outlawry in the Testator and it was moved that this was no plea for he had taken the Administration upon him Winch a man who is outlawed may not make an executor for if he meet with his goods he shall answer for them to the King and for that reason it seems to be a good plea 3. H. 6. 32. and Brownlow chief Prothonotary said that he could shew a president 27. Eliz. where this is adjudged to be no plea and Iustice Winch said to him shew that president if any such be and upon Tuesday after he shewed that and then Winch agreed Auditor Curle for words AUditor Curle brought an action upon the case and in his declaration he set forth the Statute of 32. H. 8. for the erection of the Court of Wards and that the same Statute appointed the Auditor of the same Court and shewed that the Plantiff was an Auditor of the same Court and that the Defendant such a day and at such a place said of him you have taken money for ingrossing of feodaries innuendo accompts and tunc et ibidem you are a Cozner and live by Cozning and I will prove that to be Coznage and upon not guilty pleaded it was found for the Plantiff and now it was moved in arrest of judgement by Finch Serjeant of the King that the Plantiff shall not have judgement upon this verdict for the first words are not actionable for the taking of money for the ingrossing of feodaries are insensible and then the inuendo will not help nor aid that also the words in the second place are not actionable because he had not said that he was a Cozning officer and so he had not expresly applied that to his office and
the very Common Law see Ouleys case 19. Eliz. in Dyer but Hutton doubted whether this bond is void by the Common Law because the Statute of the 23. H. 6. inflicts so great specialty upon the Sheriffs for extortion and after judgement was Commanded to be entred for the Defendant in the action if no other matter be shewed to the contrary before such a day In trespas quare vi et armis one such being his servant cepit et adduxit at D. in Essex the Defendant pleaded that he was a vagrant in the same Countie and he not having notice that he was servant to another he retained him and it was moved by Finch if I retain the servant of another man in the same Countie where I and his Mr. inhabit this is not justifiable though in veritie I had not notice of that and this according to the express book of the 19. Ed. 3. 47. Hobert the book may not be law for it is a hard matter to make me take notice of every servant which is retained in the same Countie and yet perchance if this retainer be upon the Statute of labourers at the Sessions this is notorious and I ought to take notice of that at my peril but it is otherwise of a private retainer for though it is within the same Countie yet being a private matter in fact the Law will not compel me to take notice of that at my peril otherwise if this be matter of record 2. H. 4. 64. and Hobert and Winch seemed to agree and then Finch moved that the Plantiff had charged the Defendant with his servant by cepit et adduxit and the Defendant excused himself and never traversed cepit et adduxit see 11. H. 4. Hutton and Hobert the receiving and the entertaining of a servant may not be said to be vi et armis Mr. Spencers case HArvy Serjeant came to the barre and demanded this question of the Court in the behalf of Mr. Spencer a man was seised of land in fee and sowed the land and devised that to I. S. and before severance he died and whether the devisee shall have the Corn or the executor of the devisor was the question and by Hobert Winch and Hutton the devisee shall have that and not the executor of the devisor and Harris said 18. Elizabeth Allens case that it was adjudged that where a man devised land which was sowed for life the remainder in fee and the devisor died and the devisee for life also died before the severance and it was adjudged that the executor of the Tenant for life shall not have that but he in remainder and Winch Iustice said that it had been adjudged that if a man devise land and after sowe that and after he dies that in this case the devisee shall have the Corn and not the executor of the devisor nota bene Dodderidge against Anthony Entred Mich. 19. Jac. Rot. 1791. ENt. Mich. 19. Jac. Rot. 1791. Peter Dodderidge brought an action of accompt against one Anthony and he declared that he de●ivered to the Defendant so many pieces of cloath called Bridge-water red to be sold at Bilbo in Spain and the Defendant said that he sold the same cloath at Bilbo in Spain for 40. l. 18. s. English to be paid in May next insuing the sale which was in November before and over he alledged the Custome of Merchants to be that if any Merchant had goods in the same Kingdome to be sold to another Merchant and he sell the goods to be paid at a day to come and this is done before a publick Notary and thereby a Bill signed and acknowledged to him in his name who sold the goods and that if the Merchant who so sold the goods delivered the Merchant who was owner of the goods this Bill so taken in his name this shall be a discharge to him of the goods and he averred that he sold them to a Spanish Merchant and that he took a Bill accordingly and at London offered that Bill to the Plantiff who refused that and upon this plea the Plantiff demurred Attoe argued that the plea is not good because he had not alledged that the partie who takes such a Bill may plead that and the Custome is also alledged with an if if the party sell and if he take the Bill and not with positive averment that he may so sell and may so take the Bill which being delivered to the owner of the goods shall be a discharge to the factor who sold the goods and here this custome is not good by the Common Law for if I deliver goods to another to sell and he sell them to be paid the money at a day to come this is not good for he ought by his sale to make a compleat contract and if I sell my horse for 10. l. I may retain the horse till the money is paid for till then the contract is not compleat and so in this case and here the Plantiff shall have an action of accompt upon this delivery and if he sell them otherwise or do not sell them for ready money he had gone beyond his Commission and this Custome is unreasonable that the Bill shall be taken in his name who sold the goods but perchance if the custome had been alleadged to take the Bill in the name of the owner of the goods this had been good but in our case the owner of the goods may not sue nor have any remedy for his goods except the factor will go into Spain and sue the said Bill and it is unreasonable to leave this to the pleasure of my factor whether I shall have any remedy for my goods sold and it is very unreasonable that I shall be paid with a Bill which may not be sued and here the Plantiff is a stranger to the Custome of Spain and shall not be bound by that Serjeant Harris to the contrary the Custome which is alledged is good among Merchants though it is not good according to our Common Law and so if two Merchants trade joyntly and one of them dies before severance of the goods yet his executor shall have his part and not the Survivor and so by the law of Merchants a man cannot wage his law in debt upon a simple contract by which it is apparant that the laws of Merchants differ from our laws and indeed the laws of Merchants are National laws and that this is the Custome in Spain is confessed by the demurrer and then we may not examine that by the reason of our laws and the laws of Merchants ought to be favoured for trading sake which is the life of every Kingdome and by the law of Merchants a Bill without seal is good and yet by our law it is but an escrowl and so I pray judgement for the Defendant Hobert chief Iustice when the Merchant had delivered goods to the factor to sell he had made the factor negotiator gestorum and for that
and died by whose death the Church became void the which was the first and the next avoydance after the grant and Harcourt presented Cardon and that the said Arthur Basset so being seised in fee 18. Octobris 17. Eliz. by his will in writing devised to Iohn Basset his son the first and next avoydance of the Church aforesaid which first and next avoydance hapned after the death of the said Arthur Basset and that the said Iohn Basset was possessed of the said next avoydance and the said Chardon being incumbent 29. of September 37. Eliz. he was elected Bishop of Down in Ireland and he being so Elect the Queen by her letters 37. of her Raign considering the smalness of the said Bishoprick that it was not able to maintain him in his episcopal dignitie ex gratia sua speciali concessit Lycensavit et potestatem dedit to the said Chardon Bishop elect that he with the said Bishoprick the rectory of Tedbome in comendum ad huc recepire et fructus de c. in usus suos convertere disponere et applicare valeat et possit habendum that in Comendam for 6. years and within the 6. years he was consecrated and after the Term of the 6. years the Church became void per legis Anglie and that the Queen by her prerogative presented one Bee who was admitted instituted and inducted and the Plantiff conveyed from Iohn Basset his title by his grant of the next avoydance and shewed that the said Church became void by the death of Gee and that the vacation by the death of Gee is the next avoydance after the death of Arthur Basset by reason whereof the Plantiff presented and was disturbed and upon his decla ration Edwards the patron demurred and the Bishop claimed nothing but as ordinary and Manering pleaded and confessed the seisin of Arthur Basset and the grant to Manwood and the presentation by Harcourt of Chardon and the devise to Iohn Basset but he shewed that after the death of Arthur Basset the Acre to which the advowson is appendant descended to Thomas Basset as c. and he being so seised the Church became void by the death of Chardon who had the next avoydance after the death of Arthur Basset and that this remained void by 2. years after his death by which the Queen presented by Lapse the said Gee who was admitted c. and Thomas Basset conveyed that to Edwards and that became void by the death of Gee and that he presented the said Mannering c. absque hoc quod praedicta vacatio Ecclesiae praedictae post Mortem de Gee was the first and next avoydance after the death of Arthur Basset as the Plantiff had alleadged and upon this bar the Plantiff demurred and it was argued by the Councel of both sides on several dayes and in Michaelmas Term ensuing it was argued by the Court but because that Harvey was newly made Iustice he did not argue the case but Iustice Hutton began The argument of Justice Hutton ANd Iustice Hutton after a recital of the case said that his opinion was that the Plantiff should be barred and in the first place it is to be considered whether the King had any title at all to present by the Creation of Chardon to be Bishop Secondly admit that he had title whether he had dispensed with that and by his dispensation he had satisfied his prerogative Thirdly admit that the King had title and that this was not satisfied with the Commendam whether the grantee had lost his turn and as to the first point it ought to be agreed that when a parson is made a Bishop that he is discharged of the Church by the Common Law and so is the 45. Edw. 3. 5. and Dyer 159. petit Broo. 116. and this is an avoydance by Cession and for any thing that I see in our books the King had not any title to present except that he himself was pat●on but because that did not happen fully in question here I will not deliver any opinion but I will say what our antient books do lay 41. Edw. 35. adjudged that the King shall not present to a prebendary where the prebend was made Bishop and the tithe which the King had to present was by reason that the temporalities of the Bishoprick of which he was prebend was in his hands and see the 7. H. 4. 25. a good case 11. H. 4. 37. Dyer 228. and for Brooks presentation 61. that is but the report of the Chancellor who had that in presentation but our Common Law doth not warrant any such thing and then for the second point whether the King had dispenced with his prerogative and in the first place we are to know that these Commendams were at the first but to see the cure served and by the opinion of Pollard the ordinary is to see the cure served though that be charged with such rents that none would have it and for that Commendams were at the first good but now if the King had title then that began per the consecration otherwise he shall never have it and so is 41. Edw. 3. 5. if consecration doth not give that he shall never have it and hereby his grant to hold that in Commendam he had dispenced with this prerogative and if this had been granted to him for his life none will deny but that he had dispenced with his prerogative and shall never take advantage of that again afterwards and no more in this case for he is incumbent to all intents and purposes for Fitz N B. 36. he may have a Spoliation and yet in this case he is parson and Bishop and now that the King may dispence with that it is not to be doubted and I will compare that with the like cases A. 6. Eliz.
