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 P●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.

S. having before the making hereof revoked reduced and revested the Estate of Inheritance of all and singular my Mannors Messuages Lands Tenements and Hereditaments whatsoever with the appurtenances scituate c. in and to me the said E.S. and my heirs for divers causes and considerations me thereunto moving Have Given Granted and Confirmed and by these presents do Give Grant and Confirm unto A. B. of c. and R.L. of c. all and singular my Mannors Messuages Lands Tenements and Hereditaments whatsoever with their appurtenances To have and to hold the said Mannors c. unto the said A. B. and R. L. their heirs and assigns to the several uses behoofs intents and purposes hereafter in these presents specified and to no other use intent or purpose whatsoever that is to say to the onely sole and proper use of me the said E.S. and my heirs and assigns for ever In witnesse c. We will now Illustrate the matter with some few Cases And first 1. In Trin. 25 H. 8. 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 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.

Of a Fine A Fine being of all kinds of Settlements of the greatest Force and Antiquity is sometimes called Compositio amicabilis but more usually finalis Concordia and is so termed as the Lord Coke holds Quia finem litibus imponit And so indeed it did antiently for after some contention had been about a thing by Suit the Parties agreeing who should have it a Fine was levied and so there was an end of the matter but is now of more common use because a man thereby may convey his Lands to another in Fee-simple fee-Fee-tail for life or years and that with a Reservation of Rent also Co.

If a Writ of Covenant be brought against the Tenant and a Writ of Entry against the Demandant then the Writ of Covenant must bear date and be returned before the Writ of Entry and this is called the double Voucher 6.

As to the Warrant of Attorney and Dedimus Po●estatem take this First That in the suffering of Recoveries the Tenants and Vouchees do most commonly appear in person But if they cannot or will not then they may make an Atturney And in that case there must be a Conusance for a Warrant of Atturney taken to authorize the Atturneys and a Dedimus Potestatem to some to take it in this manner Lond. ss Praec A.

A Bargain and Sale is a real contract upon valuable considerations for the passing of Lands Tenements or Hereditaments by Deed indented and inrolled within six moneths after the date of it without Livery of seisin or Atturnment of Tenants so as be by Deed indented sealed and inrolled either in the County where the Land lyes or within one of the Kings Courts of Record at Westm within six moneths after the date as we said before Plowd 307.

That if one for money grant a Rent without any word of Bargaine and Sale and the Deed be inrolled the Rent will pass without atturnment Cro. 3. part 166. 2. That Lands in London bargained and sold by Tenant in tayle and the Deed delivered after the same year he made Livery to him the Lands pass by the bargain and Sale Yelverton 123 124. 3. That as the very words Bargaine and Sale are not needful to make some Land pass by way of Bargain and Sale where there is an inrolment So inrolment is not necessary in all cases As where a reversion is granted for years only there neither inrolment not atturnment are necessary Cook 8.93 Foxes Case 4. That the makers of the Act 27 H. 8. chap. 10. did not expect that any Land after that Act should pass by way of Limitation of use save only uses upon Bargain and Sale which they did in the same Parliament allow after inrolment And they did presume that little Land would pass that way for that the Bargaine being in the Post might not vouch by force of any warranty annexed to the Estate of the Land Co. 1.120 in Chudleighs Case 5. That to make a good Estate for years by way of Bargain and Sale for Land to pass this may be without inrolment of the Deed But to make a good Estate of the Freehold or Inheritance of Land by way of Bargain and Sale it must have the Requisites of a Deed. viz. 6. It must be by Writing and not by Print or Stamp in Parchment not in Paper nor upon Lead Wood or the like Co. 5.20 2 part Inst 672. 7. That by the Common Law Land might have passed by word for the use only past but now it must be by Deed save only in some Cities Villages and ancient Burroughs where it passeth by Custome Dyer 229. 8. That if a Father in consideration of 10 l. paid to him by his Son doth covenant to stand seised to his use no use will arise without Inrollment Coo. 7.40 9.

The inrolled Deed must be indented for if it be by Deed-Poll the Estate will not pass Dyer 229. The Six moneths given for Inrollment are to be accounted 1. From the date and not from the time of the delivery of the Deed and from the date and from the day of the date is all one 2. After the account of 28 dayes to the moneth and no more 3. The day of the date to be taken exclusive Moors Rep. 40. Case 128. and yet if it be inrolled the same day it bears date it is good If it chance which is very seldome that it have no date then the day of the delivery shall be taken for the date and the six moneths to be cast from thence Mich. 37 38 Eliz.

This kind of assurance by Bargain and Sale thus perfected by Inrollment will as effectually transfer the Land as any other Conveyance and therefore the Bargainee of a Reversion albeit he may not have benefit of a Condition upon demands of Rent without giving notice of the bargain and sale to the Lessee and albeit that A. the Conusee by a Fine of a Reversion before Attornment of the Tenant bargain and sell the Reversion to B and that in this case B. cannot distrain for his Rent until he can get Attornment of the Tenant yet the Bargainee shall have benefit of a Condition of an Assignee within 32. H. 8. And it seems he may vouch by force of a warranty annexed to the estate of the Land for he is in partly in the Per and partly in the Post Co. 8.94 3.62 5.113 I will Illustrate this Point only with three or four Cases and then give you Presidents Case 1. Winchcombe having Issue two Sons conveyed a Mannor unto his eldest son and to the daughter of Dunce for life for the Joynture of the wife the Remainder to the son in Fee the son having no Issue his Father in Law Dunce procured him by Deed indented to Bargain and sell to him the Mannor the Bargainor being sick who dyed before Inrollment of the Deed within the six moneths the Deed not being acknowledged and afterwards the Deed coming to be inrolled the Clerk who inrolled it procured a Warrant from the Master of the Rolls who writ upon the Deed Let the Deed be inrolled upon Affidavit made of the delivery of the Deed by one of the witnesses to the same and afterwards 〈…〉 was inrolled within the six moneths And the Opinion of the Court was That the Conveyance was a good Conveyance in Law And therefore the younger Brother exhibited his Bill in Chancery pretending the Conveyance to be made by practice without any consideration Winchcombe and Dunce Hill 13 Jac. in Canc ' Godb. Case 376. 2. Popham's Case 5 Eliz. If a man bargain and sell to one and after to another the first Deed is inrolled and after the second and that the last day of the six moneths accounting the day of the date for none yet it was held by the Court That the first Bargainee should have it sic vide from the Date which are the words of the Statute are of the same sense as from the day of the date and that twenty eight dayes make a moneth Dyer 218.

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.

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.

If one owe me a Debt upon a Statute and dye his Executor or Administrator must see me paid this debt before ●e pay any debt to a Subject upon a Bond or for Rent or upon a single or simple contract it must be paid next after Debts upon Judgement 5. All Statutes Merchant and of the Staple are to be brought to the Clerk of the Recognizances within four moneths and to be enrolled within six moneths otherwise they will be void as to purchasors 27 Eliz. cap. 4. 6. 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. Fitz. 246. 11. A Writ of Extent was awarded in the time of Queen Mary returnable Quindena Martini the Writ executed by Inquisition in the life of the Queen but before the return the Queen dyed and yet it was returned and a Liberate granted in the time of the next Queen In this case it was doubted by the Court That the Extent was not well returned Dyer 205. 12. 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
forthwith be answerable to the Creditor for his debt And albeit the moveable Goods are sold for less than they are worth yet is the Debtor without Remedy and it shall be imputed to his own folly that he would not sell them himself while he might And if the Debtor have no moveables whereon the debt may be levied he shall be imprisoned and there remain till he agree with his Creditor and if he be in want the Creditor shall find him bread and water which the prisoner shall also satisfie before he be inlarged And if it be a Merchant Stranger that is Creditor he shall be satisfied for his stay about the business And if the Debtor have Sureties they shall be proceeded against in like form as is before declared against the Debtor howbeit so long as the Debt may be levied of the goods moveable of the Debtor his Pledges or Mainpernors shall be without damage Stat. de Mercatoribus 13 E. 1. A Debt acknowledged to a Merchant before the Mayor of London or Chief Warden of a Town which the King shall appoint or other sufficient Men when they cannot attend and before a Clerk which the King shall assign shall be enrolled and if it be not paid at the day the Debtor ●f he be a Lay-man shall be imprisoned by the Mayor till c. if he be within their power else by Writ out of the Chancery upon Certificate of a Recognisance thither And if he agree with the Creditor within a quarter of a year after then all the Lands which were the Debtors the day of the Recognisance made and also his Goods shall be delivered to the Creditors upon a reasonable extent And of these Lands so delivered the Conusee being ousted shall have an Assise or Redisseisin The Writs out of the Chancery shall be returnable before the Justices of either Bench and upon a Non est inventus returned or that he is a Clerk Writs to all the Sheriffs where he hath Lands or Goods shall go forth to deliver the same upon reasonable extent and to what Sheriff he will to take his Body The like process shall be against the pledges if the money be not paid at the day If the debtor or pledges dye the creditor shall have Execution upon the Lands of the heir at his full age Magna Charta cap. 8.

He that is in prison upon a Recognisance shall not be delivered out of prison upon a Scire facias against the party and surety thereupon found to the King alone but shall find Sureties severally as well to the King as to the other party Stat. 23 H. 8. cap. 6. Either of the Chief Justices or in their absence out of the same Term the Mayor of the Staple of Westminster with the Recorder of London may take Recognisances And they shall be executed in all respects as a Statute-Staple Stat. 27 Eliz. cap. 4. Every Statute-staple or Merchant not brought to the Clerk of the Recognisances within four moneths next after the acknowledging to enter a true copy thereof shall be against all persons their heirs successors executors administrators and assigns onely which for good consideration shall after the acknowledging of the same statute purchase the Land or any part lyable thereunto or any Rent Lease or profit of it Stat. 33.

All Obligations to the King shall be of the force of a Statute-staple If the Owner of goods sell his goods after the Teste of the Extent and before the Inquisition taken yet the Sheriff may seise and extend them Mores Rep. Case 72. 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.

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.

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.
