A Recovery was had against Tenant in taile and he dyed before execution And by the better Opinion the Issue is not remitted neither shall he falsifie because of the Recovery in value upon the Voucher Dyer 35. 3. In the Case of Hunt and Gateley Pasch 23 Eliz. in C.B. the case was That he in Remainder granted a Rent out of the Land after the Tenant in tail suffered a Common Recovery and dyed without Issue And it was Resolved by all the Judges of England That Leases for years Conusance of a Statute Grant of a Rent and all other Incumbrances by him in remainder are avoided by the common Recovery that the Tenant in tail shall suffer of the Land Moores Rep. Case 298. Capell's Case 23 Eliz. Co. 1. fo 62. 4. In Trin. 12 Eliz. 290. A Recovery was suffered by Husband and Wife of Tenements in London which by the Custome of London binds as a Fine at Common Law which was to the use of the Recoverors c. untill they made a Lease for 40 years and then to the use of the husband and wife and the heirs of the wife The Lease was made and then the husband dyed In this case the Court held that the wife should be concluded and should not avoid this Lease but shall hold under the Recovery so as the Lease precedes her Estate But Quaere what remady she shall have for the Rent which was reserved before her Estate by the use was created Dyer 290. See Co. 2. Part 57. Beckwiths Case 5. Replevin for the taking of three Cowes apud Rowdham the Defendant justifies for damage Feasant as in Freehold the Pâ—aintiff traverses the Freehold and thereupon being at Issue a specia Verdict was found Where the Case appeared to be One William Brown Father to the Defendant being seised of this Land in Fee having Issue the Defendant his Son and Heir Thomas Brown his second son and Richard a third by his Will in writing devised this Land to Thomas his son and his Heirs for ever paying to his brother Richard 20 l. at his age of 21 years And if Thomas dyed without Issue living William his Brother That then William his Brother should have those Lands to him and his heirs and assigns for ever paying the said Summe as Thomas should have paid Thomas enters and suffers a common Recovery with a single voucher to the use of himself and his heirs and afterwards deviseth it to the wise of Edward Pells the Plaintiff and her heirs and dyes with out Issue living the said William Brown who entred upon Edw. Pells and took the Distress Et si c. This Case was twice argued at the Barre and afterwards at the Bench and the matter was divided into three Points 1. Whether Thomas had an Estate in Fee or in Fee tayl only 2. Admitting he had a Fee Whether this limitation of the Fee to William be good to limit a Fee upon a Fee 3. If Thomas hath a Fee and William only a possibility to have a Fee Whether this Recovery shall barr William or that it be such an Estate as cannot be extirpated by Recovery or otherwise To the third Point Dodderidge held That this Recovery should barr William for he had but a possibility to have a Fee and as it were a contingent Estate which is destroyed by this Recovery before it came in esse for otherwise it would be a mischievous kind of Perpetuity which could not by any means be destroyed And although it was Objected That a Recovery shall not barre but where a Recovery in value extends thereto as appears Co. lib. 1. Capell's Case That a Rent-charge granted by him in remainder was bound Yet he held That this Recovery destroying the immediate estate all Contingencies and dependencies thereupon are bound and a Recovery shall bind every one who cannot falsifie it And he who hath this possibility cannot falsifie it therefore he shall be bound thereby But all the other Justices were herein against him That this Recovery shall not bind for he who suffered the Recovery had a Fee and William Brown had but a Possibility if he survived Thomas and Thomas dying without issue in his life no Recovery in value shall extend in value thereto unless he had been party by way of Vouchee And then it should for by entring into the Warranty he gave all his possibility Therefore they agreed to the case which Davenport at the Barre cited to be adjudged 34 Eliz. where a Mortgagee suffers a Recovery that shall no bind the Mortgagor but if he had been party by way of Voucher it had been otherwise and here is not any Estate depending upon the Estate of Thomas Bray but a Collaterall and meer Possibility which shall not be toucht by a Recovery And if such a Recovery should be allow'd then if a man should devise that his Heir should make such a payment to his younger sons or to his Executors otherwise the Land should be unto them if the Heir by Recovery might avoid it it would be very mischievous and might frustrate all devices and there is no such mischief that it should maintain Perpetuities for it is but in a Particular case and upon a mere contingency which perchance never may happen and be avoided by joyning him in the Recovery who hath such a contingency And on the other part it would be far more and a greater mischief that all Executors devises should by such means be destroy'd And Hutton in his Argument put this Case If a man gives or devises Land to one and his heirs as long as J. S. hath Issue of his body he by Recovery shall not bind him who made this Gift without making him a party by way of Vouchee for a Recovery against Tenant in Fee-simple never shall bind a collateral interest title or possibility as a Condition or Covenant or the like Wherefore they all besides Dodderidge held that this Recovery was no barr But it was adjudged for the Defendant Pells and Brown Hill 17 Jac. B.R. Cro. 2 Part 590. 6. In Pasch 24 Eliz. C. B. A Feme Sole was seised of a Mannor to which were three Copyholds one of the Copyholders did intermarry with the woman and afterwards he and his wife did suffer a Common Recovery of the Mannor to the use of themselves for their lives and afterwards to the use of the Heirs of the wife In this case it was agreed by the whole Court That the Copyhold was extinct And said by the Court That if a Copyholder will joyn with the Lord in a Feoffment of the Mannor thereby the Copyhold is extinct and so if he accept a Lease of his Copyhold Godb 11. Mich. 29 Eliz. C.B. Godb. 101. accord 7. Husband and wife are Joynt-Tenants for life the remainder to
the husband in tail Remainder to another in Fee and the husband doth suffer a Common Recovery In this case it was held That this was no barre to the Issue in tail for any part for there are no moieties between them And there where the husband alone suffers the Recovery there is no lawful Tenant to the Praecipe and so the Recovery is no barr Co. 3.5 Marquess of Winchester's Case 8. In 25 H. 8. it was held That if my Tenant for life vouch a stranger who doth enter into the Warranty and cannot barre the Demandant and the Demandant doth recover and the Tenant over in value That the Land recovered in Value shall not go to me in Reversion after the death of Tenant for life nor shall the Reversion of the Land recovered in Value be in me in the life of the Tenant for life Broo. Cases Sect. 70. 9. In 30 H. 8. it was held That where there was Tenant for life a remainder in taile or for life and the Tenant for life is impleaded and doth vouch him in remainder who doth vouch one that hath a title of Formedon so the Recovery pass by Voucher then the issue of him that hath a title of Formedon may bring his Formedon and recover against the Tenant for life for the recompence shall not go to the Tenant for life and therefore he may recover for his Ancestor war ranted the remainder only and not the Estate of the Tenant for life and therefore the Tenant for life may not bind him by the Recovery for he did not warrant to him and therefore in this case the sure way is to make the Tenant for life to pray in ayd of him in remainder and they to joyn and vouch him that hath the title of Formedon and so to pass the Recovery for the recompence shall go to them both Broo. Case 143. In the last place we come to the Statutes concerning this Point an abstract whereof followes Stat. 7 H. 8. chap. 4. That Recoverors of Lands Tenements and Advowsons their Heirs and Assigns may distrain for Rents Services and Customs due and unpaid and make avowry and justifie the same and have like remedy for recovering them as the Recoverors might have done or had albeit the Recoverors were never seised thereof and shall have also a Quare Impedit for an Advowson if upon avoidance any disturbance be made by a stranger as the Recoverors might have had albeit the Recoverors were never seised thereof by Presentation And here Avery Avowant or Bayliff in any Replegiari or Second Deliverance if their Avowry Conusance or Justification be found for them or the Plaintiff be otherwise barred shall recover his damages and costs Stat. 21 H. 8. chap. 15.

Proclamations of Fines shall be onely four times viz. once in the Term wherein the fine is engrossed and once every of the three Terms next after Of a Recovery A Common Recovery is onely Fiâ—lio Juris being a certain form used for the better assuring of Lands or Tenements upon any man And this Recovery by assent is now by common usage a kind of conveyance upon which a use may be limited and averred And there is a great difference between a Recovery by assent and a Recovery without assent though without title Co. 1. Sir William Pelhams Case 14. In the formalities whereof three things or parties are required viz. a Demandant a Tenant and a Vouchee as efficient causes thereof and the Land demanded as the matter thereof 1. The Demandant is he that brings the Writ of Entry and may be termed properly enough the Recoveror 2. The Tenant is he against whom the Writ is brought and may be stiled the Recoverce 3. The Vouchee is he whom the Tenant voucheth or calleth to warranty for the Land in demand And it is either with a single Voucher which is where the Writ is brought against him that is to pass the Land immediately and he doth vouch over the common Vouchee And sometimes with a double Voucher which is when the writ is brought against another to whom he that is to pass the Land hath aliened it and he doth vouch him that is to make the assurance and he doth vouch over the common Vouchee and this is the surest and safest kind of Recovery And this may be also with a treble Vouchee And here observe That a Common Recovery is much of the nature of a Fine and hath much favour from the Law at this day and is in some respects better than a Fine for a fine will barre the Heir in tail but not him in Remainder or Reversion but a Recovery bars them all Co. 1.22.62 The method of suffering a Recovery and the manner and order of proceeding therein is as followeth First There must be a Writ of Entry and therein a Demandant a Tenant and a Vouchee for if either of these be wanting it is not a compleat Recovery and such persons and by such names may be Demandants Tenants and Vouchees in Recoveries as may be Cognisors and Cognisees in Fines Co. upon Litt. 372. But the persons and parties must be competent and capable and there must be a lawful Tenant to the Praecipe 2. In the Writ of Entry there must be Land contained or some other thing demanded and that such as is demandable and therefore we are to take notice That of such things and by such names as a Writ of Covenant for the levying of a fine may be had a Writ of Entry for suffering a Recovery may be had See Doctor and Student 52. Mores Rep. 953. 3. It must not contain the same thing twice as to name a Messuage and a House parcel of the same Messuage nor a Town and a Hamlet within the same Town 4. If the Writ of Entry be returnable Crastino Martini the Writ of Summons ad Warrant thereupon must bear Teste from the return of Crast Mart. and be returnable nine returns after the return of the Writ of Entry inclusivè that is accounting Crast Mart. for one of the nine returns and Tres Paschae which is the ninth return after Crast Mart. for another And the Teste of the Writ of Seisin must be the day of that ninth return and be returnable fifteen days after If a single Recovery and a Fine be against the Tenant the Writ of Entry must bear date and Teste before the Writ of
is covenanted and agreed should and would convey and assure or cause to be conveyed and assured unto the Right Honourable H. Earl of D. since deceased and to the said R. H. T. T. J. B. and H.

Barloe and those who were seised in Fee of the Land gave it to Jo Aprice and Joan his wife and the heirs of their two bodies engendered and after Jo. Aprice did discontinue the tayl to the use of Richard his Son and Anne his Wife and to the heirs of the body of the said Richard and after the said John dyed and Joan survived him And after Richard enfeoffed one Thomas a Bastard son in Fee After Anne dyes and one Robert Pattershall and others recover the same Lands against the said Thomas in a Writ of Entry in le Post wherein Thomas vouched the said Richard which voucheth over the common Vouchee and thereupon Judgment and Execution was had After this Joan dyed after whose death Richard dyed without lawfull Issue of his Body and after one Thomas Aprice younger Brother to the said Richard and Son of the said John and Joan brought a Formedon in Descender against Thomas the Bastard son and recovered the Land for that Joane was living at the time of the Recovery had and therefore the first entail was not bound and by the death

The Sheriff upon a Fieri facias may not deliver the Defendants Goods to the Plaintiff in satisfaction of his debt Cro. 1. part 504. 4. If the Sheriff open or break any House to do Execution at the Suit of a common person the Execution is good but the party whose House is broken may have an Action of Trespass against him for the breaking of the House Co. 5.93 Co. 4.91 Semaines Case Co. 11.82 5. If the Sheriff have a Fieri facias or a Ca. sa against a man and before Execution executed he pay him the money in this case the Sheriff cannot do execution after if he do an Action of Trespass or False Imprisonment lyeth against per Justice Jones and Justice Berkley B.R. Pasch 12 Car. 6. If Execution be by Fi. Fa. and the Sheriff seise Goods and before the sale the Record is removed by Error and a Supersedeas awarded and a seizure returned in this case a Venditioni Exponas may be awarded upon the return of the Fieri facias which is filed Cro. 1.597 598. 7. If Execution be for the Plaintiff if the Defendant be taken by Capias Utlagatum and if Judgment be affirmed in Error a Capias or other Execution lyes without Scire facias although in another Court Cro. 1.706 851. 8. The ancient Sheriff being out of his Office cannot sell the Goods he took upon a Fieri facias Yelverton 44. How Execution is to be done in the Cinque-Ports see Bendloes 15. Observe here further That if the Defendant dye his body being in Execution the Plaintiff may have a new Execution against the Lands or Goods of the Defendant as he pleaseth but the Plaintiff while he hath the body of the Defendant in Execution can have no other Execution against his Lands or Goods Co. 5.65 66.86 87. A new Execution may be sued against any man who by Priviledg of Parliament shall be set at liberty Stat. 5 Jac. cap. 13. If the Sheriff hath a man in his custody by process of Law and after this a Writ of Capias ad Satisfaciendum is delivered to him in this case in Judgment of Law he shall be in Execution presently upon that Writ though he never make any actual arrest thereupon Co. 5.89 I will now cite some few Cases to illustrate this Point 1. If two be in Execution for one debt and one of them dye under Execution this will not discharge the other But death under Execution in case where there is but one Defendant is in satisfaction Cro. 1.851 F.N.B. 146. Cro. 2.136 143. But this by the Common Law For now by the Stat. of 21 Jac. cap. 24. If a man be in Execution for a debt and dye in Execution for it the debt unpaid the Plaintiff shall now have as much remedy against his Lands and Goods as if he had never been or dyed in Execution Co. 5.86 Cro. 2.136 142. 33 H. 6.47 3 H. 6.7 N.B. 246. 2. If the Defendant pay the money by this he shall be discharged of the Execution So a Release of all Executions will barr in this case although it be in the Kings case But a Release of all Suits will not discharge from Execution in the case of the King or Subject Co. 8.153 But a Release of the Judgment and of all debts and duties will discharge the Body out of Execution Co. 1. part Inst 291. But if he make any Depheasance Release or other such like act to the Defendant being in Execution amounting to a discharge of the Execution this will not be in it self ipso facto a discharge of the Execution but this will make way for his discharge by Audita Querela or some other means And therefore in case where the Plaintiff consented that the Defendant his Prisoner in the Kings Bench should come to him out of Prison to the Horse-shooe Tavern which was out of the Rules without a Keeper or any Order of the Court thinking to have some agreement with him and he doth come to him and was taken again upon the same Execution and put into the Kings-Bench he was relieved and discharged by Audita Querela And a discharge by word in this case is good enough For if I say to the Sheriff and bid him discharge such a one he hath in Execution at my Suit or suffer him to go at large this is a good discharge both to the Sheriff and to the party Popham 206 207. Trin. 24 Car. B.R. Walker and Alder. 3. If A. and B. Joynt-Tenants for life the Remainder in Fee and Judgment is given against A. in debt and afterwards before Execution he release to his Companion this shall not avoid the Execution upon the Land But if A. had dyed before Execution the Survivor would have held the Land discharged Co. 6.79 Abergavenyes Case 4. If a Judgment be against one Obligor in the Common-Pleas and another Judgment in the Kings-Bench against the other Obligor and a Capias ad Satisfaciendum in the Kings-Bench against that Defendant and then the Body and Lands of the other is taken in the Common-Pleas and he is delivered by Audita Querela as he may be although the Land taken in Execution be evicted yet his body shall never be re-taken in Execution Hob. Rep. 2. 5. If a Sheriff Gaoler or other Officer that hath a man in Execution at my Suit for debt or damages do after suffer him wilfully or negligently to escape and do not re-take him before I commence my Action against him In this case I may in an Action of Debt or Action of the Case which I will recover against him by whose means this is done but not against his Executors or Administrators so much as I am damnified thereby Plowd 45.

If the Chief Justice of the Court by which the Prisoner is committed the Sheriff and the Plaintiff in the Suit all of them agree together to let a prisoner in Execution out for a time this will be no escape especially there where the Prisoner doth return at his time Dyer 275. 8. If the King or any great Man out of the ordinary way of Law shall command or require the Sheriff or other Officer that hath the keeping of such a prisoner to set him at liberty altogether or foâ— time and he doth so although he return to prison again yet this will be an escape in the Sheriff to make him liable to action Dyer 278 279. 9.

There are divers other Recognizances taken and acknowledged before the Lord Chancellor Master of the Rolls and others as the Justices of the one and the other Bench Barons of the Exchequer Judges of the Circuits Justices of the Peace and Sheriffs some whereof are by the Common-Law and some by certain Statutes And amongst these some are without Seal and recorded onely and some are sealed and recorded also Some of them are in the nature of Bayl and some of them are given to the King and both these are of the nature of the former kind of Recognisances which we will not meddle with but onely those made to subjects and for the payment of money or the doing of some other thing by one subject to another wherein he that doth enter into the Statute or Recognisance is called the Conusor or Debtor and he to whom it is made is termed the Conusee For the better understanding of matters relating to those things we are to observe That the forementioned Statutes are much of the nature of a Judgment had upon a Suit in the Kings-Bench or Common-Pleas and therefore are called Pocket-Judgements 2. That if the Writing be not as good as a Statute it will not be good to any purpose for if void as a Statute it will be void as an Obligation Cro. 3.319.494 3. That a Statute first acknowledged shall be preferred before a Judgment after had So that if a man acknowledg a Statute and after confess a Judgment and the Land be extended on the Judgement the Conusee shall have a Scire facias to avoid the Extent upon the Judgment And yet a Judgment had in a Court of Record shall be preferred in case of an Executor before a Statute and the Executor is to satisfie the Judgment before the Statute And it is held per totam Curiam That be the Judgment first or last it must be first satisfied Co. 6.45 in Higgons Case Plowd 32.

That a Statute or Recognisance if it be obtained upon an Usurious contract or of purpose to deceive men in the purchase of their Lands or for the obtaining of their just debts they will be void or voidable by this Cro. 2.67 425. 7. That if two do acknowledge a Recognisance or Statute of 1000 l. quilibet eorum in solido this will be joynt and several and the Conusee may have several Scire Facias's upon it And it is said that a special Recognisance may by express words bind the Lands of the Conusor in one County only Co. 2. part Inst 395. 8. If a Statute Staple be not sealed with the Seal of the party that doth acknowledg it yet it seems to be good enough for the Statute doth not require it But a Recognisance within the Stat. of 23 H. 8. cannot be good except the Seal of the party be to it for so are the words of the Statute by three Justices of the Common-Pleas Trin. 22 Jac. 9. If a Statute be made to two and one of them come with it he shall have Execution in both their names And it is the common course that any stranger that comes with a Statute may have Execution of it in the dame of the Recognisee And if after the death of the Recognisee a stranger come in his own name and shew the Statute he shall have Execution of it though as we said the Conusee himself come not in person 10. If the Conusor of a Statute Merchant or Staple c. be taken and he dye in Execution yet the Conusee shall have Execution of his Lands and Goods Or if the Conusor in Execution escape his Goods and Lands shall be taken and executed upon the Statute For the action given to the Conusee against the Sheriff for the Escape is not a satisfaction Co. 5.86 87.

In a Scire facias upon a Recognisance Joynt-Tenancy is a good plea to abate the Writ and if it be upon a Judgment to have Execution it is a good barr that the Plaintiff hath assigned his damages to the King although the King have not levied So also it is a good barr to say that the Sheriff hath levied the money by Fieri facias albeit he hath not returned the Writ Moores Rep. 671 693. 13. If an Extent be sued by an Executrix upon a Statute made to her Testator and she dye before the Inquisition taken this Inquisition may as it seems be taken after her death and an Administrator de bonis non administratis of the Testator upon this Extent sued by the Executrix may have a Liberate and shall not need to begin again and have a new Certificate and a new Extent and Liberate Cro. 1.326 But this shall suffice as to those Particulars I will now shew you what is liable to

Of a Dephesance A Defeasance which doth infectum reddere quod factum est signifies in our Law nothing but a Condition annexed to an Act as to an Obligation Recognisance Statute or Judgment which being performed by him that is bound and chargeable by the Act the Act it self is disabled and made void as if it had never been made or done And this is more peculiarly and properly applied to such conditional Instruments as are made in avoidance of Statutes and Recognisances at or after the time of entring into the same It differs from a Condition in this That a Condition is alwayes made at the same time with the Deed and commonly either annexed to it or inserted in it But a Defeasance is alwayes made in a Deed by it self and for the most part after the Original Deed is made or Act done to which it hath relation Wherein observe That all such things as are executory being created may by consent of all the parties to the creation of it be defeated so amongst others Bargain and Sales Statutes Recognisances and Judgements For it is a rule That in all Executory things that are made or created by Deed or Record the same thing by the consent of all the parties may in the like way be defeated and avoided Nihil est tam conveniens naturali aequitati quam quod unumquodque dissolvatur eo ligamine quo ligatur Co. upon Lit. 236.

your Orator and having to that end drawn him into the Bonds aforesaid and being combined and confederated to lay upon him the whole burthen and penalty thereof have the better to effect the same so plotted as that the said G. B. who was and is privy to the whole passage of the business before mentioned and whom the said H. used as his Instrument to draw your Orator into the said Bonds hath lately since the money mentioned in the Conditions thereof become thereby due absented himself with the privity and by the procurement of the said H. and liveth now in remote and obscure places unknown to your Orator but well known to the said J.H. who while the said B. was here present never demanded of your Orator any money at all nor any way questioned him upon the said Bonds or either of them but now the said G.B. who could detect his dealing in the premisses being absent and kept out of the way be the said J.H. upon advantage therein and in pursuance of their plot aforesaid doth now pretend and give out in speeches that the said Bonds were real Securities and entred into for just debts and that your Orator and the said B.B. and I.I. or some one of them had of the said H. Money or Commodities of the value of Money mentioned in the Conditions of the said Bonds which money he pretendeth to be still unsatisfied and the said Bonds thereby forfeited and thereupon he the said I.H. hath of late arrested your Orator and commenceth or threatneth to commence and prosecute several Sutes against him at the Common Law upon the said several Bonds and spareing the said G.B. whom he hath purposely absented bendeth all his force against your Orator and albeit he the said I.I. hath received satisfaction of and from the said B.B. and I. I and of and from some others in their use or in their behalf of and for all the money and Commodities if any other were lent and delivered by him upon the said Bond and knoweth well that your Orator had never any part of such money or Commodity or any consideration at all for or in respect of his entring into the said Bonds but was meerly drawn thereunto upon the promises aforesaid which were never performed unto him yet he the said I.H. continueth still his sute and threatnings of sute against your Orator at the Common Law upon the said Bonds with intent to recover of him the whole penalties thereof and the said B. B. giveth way and furtherance thereunto and will take no course to free and discharge your Orator thereof nor will the said I.H. seek for satisfaction as he ought if any be due unto him at the hand of the said B.B. nor discover where the said B.B. is but both of them by a joynt confederacy between them intend to lay upon your Orator the whole burden and penalties of both the said Bonds and then to share and divide the same between them contrary to all rites and rules of Equity and to your said Orators apparent wrong and supportable hindrance unless he may find redress for the same before your Lordships in the justice and equity of this honourable Court. In tender consideration whereof and of all the aforesaid premisses and for that your Orator is void of all remedy by the course of the Common Laws of this Land to relieve himself in the said premisses and cannot there plead the matter of Equity before alledged nor any other sufficient Plea in Bar or be discharged of the said Bonds and of the Suits there commenced and threatned against him thereupon nor can thereby compel the said B.B. to take any course for your Orators discharge of the said Bonds and there enforce him and the said I.H. to perform and make good unto your Orator their promisses aforesaid for that your Orator hath no such precise proof of the said premisses by witnesses now living extant as the Common Law in such cases requireth but your said Orator is for all those matters before your Lordships in course of Equity properly to be relieved where he hopeth the said I H. and B. B. will upon their Oaths if they may be thereunto called confess their said promisses and the premisses to be true in such sort as aforesaid or if they shall deny the same that yet your Orator shall be able to make such proof thereof by circumstances as may in Equity move your Lordships to relieve him therein Therefore and to the end the said I.H. and B B. may upon their Oaths declare and set down what and how much money or commodities and what sorts and value the said I.H. disbursed lent or delivered upon the security of the Bonds aforesaid and when and to whom and whether he had the same or any part and what part thereof back again and what other satisfaction he the said I.H. hath received for or towards the said Bonds or the money mentioned in the Conditions thereof and for whom and to the end that the said I. H. and G.B. may be ordered to discharge your Orator of and from the said Bonds and that all Sutes at the Common Law thereupon against your Orator may be stayed that the matters concerning the same may be here determined in and by this Honourable Court according to Equity May it please your good Lordship the premisses considered as well to grant unto your said Orator Process of Injunction to be directed to the said I.H. commanding and enjoyning him his Counsellers Attorney or Agents and Solicitors thereby to surcease and stay all Sutes and further proceedings at the Common Law against your Crator upon the Bonds aforesaid or either of them untill the matters of Equity concerning the same be heard and determined in and by this Honourable Court As also to grant unto your Orator his Majesties most gratious writ of Subpoena c.

W. so that your Orator in equity ought to have such remedy benefit and advantage against him the said W. C. for all the said Lands c. as the said W.
