Nosme 1. 40. And so where Tenant in tail is attainted of Treason before the Statute of 26. H. 8. his son shall have the land for he doth not claim onely as heir but by the Statute and per formam doni B. Nosme 1. Yet some were of a contrary opinion and took a Diversity where the gift is to the father himself and where t is to the heires of his body by remainder B. Nosme 1. 40. And therefore in 9. H. 6. if lands are given for term of life the remainder to the heires females of the body of I. S. who is dead and hath issue a son and daughter and after the Tenant for life dies the daughter shal not have the land for she is not heir for by Hare Master of the Rolls an antient apprentice there is a difference betwixt a gift in possession to a man and his heires females c. and a gift to a stranger the remainder to the heirs females of another for there he ought to be heir indeed when the remainder falls or otherwise the rem ' is void for ever B. Done 61. for though that the case holds place in the two cases put by Whorewood this is because that the gift was once vested which was in the father and therefore good law there otherwise in the principall case where the rem ' is not vested Yet by some the opinion of Whorewood is the better for where land is given to a man and his wife for term of life the rem ' to the heires males of the body of the man this remainder cannot be vested in the life of the wife for t is not a tail in the man by reason of the estate of the wife yet if he hath issue 2 sons and the eldest hath issue a daughter and dies the father and mother dies the younger son shall have the land as heir male and yet he is not heir indeed The same Law if such gift were the rem ' to the heirs females of the body of the man who hath a son and daughter and dies the daughter shall have the land though she is not heir The same Law where land is given to W. N. for life the remainder to I. S. for life the remainder to the heires males of the body of the said W. N. who hath 2 sons the eldest hath issue a daughter and dies W. N. and I. S. die the younger son shall have the land as heir male yet he is not heir indeed but his Neece is heir to his father for t is not matter of the first vesting nor of the remainder for where the first estate for term of life is executed the remainder over ut supra the remainder may depend in abeyance quousque c. ut supra But otherwise of a remainder to the right heires for none can have that but he which shall be heir indeed B. Nosme 40. and therefore t was agreed that the 2 remainders to the right heires of Sir John Hussey was forfeited by the attainder 37. H. 8. B Nosme If land discends to the daughter within age and after she is disseised the disseisor dies and his heir enters and after a son is born he born shal avoid the discent for he claims not as heir to his sister nor was he in esse at the time of the discent Lecture B.

Nota where the Ordinary commits the administration he may revoke it and commit it to another but mean acts done by the first administrator shall stand and so 't was put in ure between Brown and Shelton for the goods of Rawlins the administration was committed to Brown and revoked and committed to Shelton for 't is not an interest but a power or authority and powers and authorities may be revoked contra of an interest certain In the time of H. 8. 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. B. Office before c. 55. Age. A man recovers Rent and arrearages by assise Or if he recovers an annuity and arrearages of it in a Writ of annuity the Defendant dyes the Plaintiff brings a Scire facias against the heir he shall not have his age of
the arrearages for they are reall and parcell of the rent or annuity But if the Judgment be of arrearages and dammages there he shall have his age B. age 50. 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.

H. 7. t is disannexed and made as in the time of H. 4. 1. E. 6. B. Age. 52. Note t was in a manner granted by all the Justices in the Common Bench That if a Parson Prebend or the like be within age of 21 years and makes a Lease of his Benefice within age that yet this shall binde him for where he is admitted by the Law of holy Church to take it within age so the Common Law inables him to Demise his Benefice within age 4. Mar. 1. B. Age. 80.

H. 8. B. Intrusion 18. the end T is said for Law That a fine for alienation is one years value of the land aliened and the same Law of a Fine for intrusion upon the King But the Fine to have licence to alien is but the third part of the yearly value of the land which shall be aliened and for licence to alien in Mortmain the Fine is the value of the Land for three years 31. H. 8. B. Alienations 29. the end If a man obtain licence to alien the Mannor of D. and all his Lands Tenements in D. he cannot alien by Fine for the Fine shall be certain so many acres of Land so many of Meddow so many of Pasture and the like and the alienation ought not to vary from the Licence Yet by B. t is otherwise used with an averment that all is one 32. H. 8. B. Alienations 30. Note if there be two Joynt-tenants who hold of the King in Capite and one releases to the other all his right this is no alienetion nor doth he need Licence or pardon of it for he to whom the Release is made is in by the first feoffor and not by him that Released nor shall he Fine for such release and so t is used in the Chequer that t is no alienation But if three Joynt tenants are and the one Releases to one of the others there he is in of it by him that releases Contra if he had released to all his compagnions and where a man Releases by Fine to the Tenant of the King this is no alienation Otherwise of a Fine Sur Conusans de droit Com ceo c. for this is an estate made by Conclusion 37.

H. 8. B. Denizen 10. Nonability 40. T was said in the Kings Bench That to say that the Plaintiff is an alien born Judgement if he shall be answered is no plea in an action personal otherwise in an action real Yet this hath been in question after this time in the same Court and t was said that an alien born is no plea in Trespass if he doth not say further That the Plaintiff is of allegiance of one such a one enemy to the King for t is no plea in an action personal against an alien that he is of the allegiance of such a Prince which is of amity with the King 1.
