Reversion is a Tenement and ought to vest presently as a Reversion and not at a day to come otherwise it is of land Reverting without estate and agreed of land by the Serjeants for the Defendant Every Deed shall be construed most strongly against the Grantor and if it may be taken to any effect by any reasonable intendment it shall be and the intent of the parties shall be observed as here of using this word Reversion not in its proper signification for then it first ought to vest as in Reversion presently by Attornment and not at a day to come but as a demonstration certain of the land viz. all the land that they have in Reversion and that they will not have the land to pass in the degree of a Reversion but in degree of Demeasne And the Law will That when the intent appeareth incline the words not apt of their proper and common signification to the intent and one word shall have the sense of another as Litl fol. 121. Dedi concessi by the Disseisee shall enure as a confirmation So 17. E. 3.8 Mannor pass by the name of Fee de Chivalry So 10. E. 44. 5. H. 7.1 plead Demise by words of licence to occupie where one word includes in it one thing as here Reversion includes the land the thing included shall pass by the word as 11. R. 2. Piscary pass per a quam and 40. E. 3.45 Soil by Piscary and by Turbary 7. E. 3.342 So Soil and Wear by Gorss for 14. E. 3. Formedon lyeth de gurgite So 6 E. 3.183 By the name of one acre cornubiensi for Cornish acres contain so many A man Grants his Remainder of one acre to have and to hold the same Reversion of that acre good because the Law respects the intent of the matter and applies the words to it So a Gift in Tail reserving the first three daies a Rose and after 10. s. good because one rent in substance A man seised of two acres Leases one for years and after maketh a Feoffment of both Livery in this wherein he hath possession by Attornment the Reversion of the other passeth 7. E. 4.21 So 30. E. 1. Totum Molendinum suum the Reversion of the third of the Mill which was in Dower pass but Tenant for life ought to Attorn upon the Grant Brook grants f. 30. the Habendum explains and corrects the words of the premisses as here the words Reversion of the land to the land it self being the same substance So 7. E. 3.308 A Rent Granted out of a Man nor to take off one acre of the same Mannor nothing shall be charged but this acre in performance of the intent of the parties by the Serjeants for the Plaintiff Anthony Brown Serjeant for the Plaintiff Tenement compriseth a Reversion as 33. E. 3. the King licences to purchase Tenements in Mortmain he purchases a Reversion good Fitzh grants 402. and Cook Alienation fol. 55. is Advowson yet the word Tenement here agrees not with the premisses First because that in the mean time after the first Lease finished at Michaelmas the land is in possession and then it is not a Reversion because no particular estate and therefore may not yest as a reversion as 21. H. 7.11 before fol. 25. Remainder may not vest but during the particular estate and not at the ending of the first estate up on Condition broken So 10. E. 3. dower of a rent reserved upon an estate Tail good so long as the estate continues otherwise it is if the Tail be altered in Tail after possibility or Tenancy by the Courtesie for that the inheritance is determined and the rent is now in another degree 12. E. 3. and 10. H. 7.13 by Keeble if a rent be granted with a cessing during the nonage of the Heir the Wife shall have Dower and Execution shall be staid otherwise the Wife of the Son dying within age for that during the Cesser she had not possession Secondly because the Reversion cannot be granted at a day to come for then he shall have the particular estate in the mean time and shall be Lessor to himself and 38. H 6.38 a man cannot reserve the lesser estate giving the greater without alteration of the Lesser as in 8. H. 7.3 by Vavisor before fol. 152. A. hath rent in Fee and grants this to B. after the death of I.S. void because the Fee passeth presenly if ever and then he should have Franck-tenement of his own grant until I.S. dies And the Estate shall not be so devided without alteration of the whole Estate for a thing in esse cannot be granted to be in esse one time and to be insuspended or differ from the other but a new rent may be granted to commence at a day to come for there he shall not have the particular estate in the mean time because not in esse before after fol. 197. Time material shall void the thing in all viz. both the premisses and Habendum not e converso if it may not pass according to the limitation thereof because time parcel of the parties intent and if it may not pass as to the intent all is void As a man hath a Rent or Term and Grant it if he stay there good if he saies besides Habendum after the death of I. S all is void after fol. 250. So the Remainder void if the Termor enter without Livery Litl 12. But if the Term was to Commence at a day to come the Remainder over there it is void notwithstanding Livery because there is no estate present to which the Livery may be annexed so that the time of Commencement is materiall and Livery before its Commencement is void and Livery shall not destroy the time but the time the Livery and grant every act shall be taken strongest against the makers and most beneficial to him to whom it is made and he hath liberty in another sence to his advantage then the words purport prima facie for every Deed shall be construed

Remainder to the right Heirs of I. S. in Life passes from the Lessor presently although it vests not presently but here the Remainder passeth not presently because the Condition precedes the Remainder as 15. H. 7. 1. if A. Grant to B. That when he is promoted to a Benefice or do such an Act he shall have an Annuity there he shall shew his Promotion if he demands his Annuity because it is a Condition precedent and to him which maketh the Grant but if he Grants an Annuity until he be promoted there he shall not shew it because the Promotion is subsequent to the Annuity and will defeat the Annuity and therefore it shall be shewed by the other party which is contray So 7. E. 3.10 A Lessee for eight years rendring 10. s. yearly and if he holdeth over to him and his heirs an action of Debt is maintainable during the Term for the Rent is a Chattle because the Fee passeth not presently for that the Condition precedes the Fee So 6. R. 2. a Lease to two for years upon Condition That if the Lessee aliens within the Term or die he shall have Fee it is holden that the Fee passeth not presently because the Condition precedes it which Cases prove That the Remainder passes not out of the Lessor at the time of the Livery albeit that the Condition precede the Remainder and proves also That the Remainder Commenceth upon Condition and proves also That the Remainder is appointed to begin after the Commencement of the particular Estate the which is contrary to the grounds of Law and therefore and for the said other causes the Remainder shall be void And so for the insufficiencie of the matter of the Bar and Form also the Plaintiff shall recover Cook Serjeant to the contrary As to the two Exceptions which have been moved That the Plea is not good because he shews not that he hath been resiant after the deaths of the Husband and Wife alwaies nor what day he entred Sir I take it That it shall be taken that he entred immediately after the death of the Husband and Wife for the Defendant hath pleaded by way of Bar and if the Bar hath matter of substance and is good to a common intent it sufficeth although it be not good to every special intent and therefore in the Case of 33. H. 6. fol. 24. where the Defendant pleads That the Testator made the Plaintiff and one R. his Executor Judgement c. The Plea was good without shewing that he was made after that the Plaintiff was made sole Executor because it shall be intended after So 10. H. 7. 15. by Keble in Trespas the Defendant pleads his Free-hold good because good by Common intendment yet the Plaintiff might have an Estate for years and it may stand with his Bar and by which he may punish the default but such special matter will not be intended So 6. E. 4.1 in Debt upon an Obligation the Defendant saith That he hath done such things as was contained in the Indenture and at Issue and found for the Plaintiff and spoken to in Arrest of Judgement because the Defendant said not that the two Covenants were all and so had not alleadged the performance of all but held good because by Common intent there shall not be intended more then two Covenants if the Plaintiff shew not the contrary So 3. H. 6.4 in Formedon he gave not prima facie a good Bar because it intends a general gift and yet it may be That the Land was recovered in value and then the Plea is not apt for other Land was given So 3. H. 6.3 In Debt nothing in their hands pleaded by Executors good yet it may be that other goods first not the Testators at the day of his death are come to their hands in place instead of other goods So 21. H. 6.17 In Assise the Defendant was in by discent where he had a mean Title which tolled the Assise of the other shall not be void by the said recovery but this shall not be intended without shewing so discent and entry in Bar good yet it may be that a stranger abated and dyed seised and the Heir could not enter but if shall not be intended without shewing specially but when a thing Commenceth in respect of the time then the certainty of the time shall be shewed fol. 24.27.33 as 20. H. 7.12 by Rede A Servant which demanded 20. s. Sallary for his service by the year ought to shew the expiration of the year because the Action is given in respect of the year past and the time is parcell of the cause of the Demand and precedes the Demand but here the time pursues the Remainder and is not cause of the Remainder and therefore we ought to shew it so certainly as where time gains a thing for here it goeth in defeasance of the thing and therefore the Bar is good notwithstanding the said two Exceptions besides it seemeth to me the Remainder is good For first he hath an Estate here upon which the Remainder may be grounded here the remainder is appointed thereupon but the cause wherefore the Remainder shall not be good is alleadged in two great points viz. because the Fee passeth not presently forth of the Lessor and also for that the Remainder cannot pass upon Condition And it seems to me That the Remainder passeth out of the Lessor presently howbeit that it vests not presently as in Litl 81. A Lease for five years if he pay within the first two that then he shall have Fee the Fee passeth out of the Lessor presently so the Remainder to the right Heirs of I. S. in life and a Remainder may Commence upon Condition as a Lease for life upon Condition That I. S. Marry my Daughter during the state for Life which shall remain to him is good because he hath an Estate upon which it may be grounded So 34. E. 3. Devise for Life upon Condition That if the Heir to whom the Reversion discends disturbs Tenant for Life or his Executors of their Administration That then the Land shall remain to the Daughter of the Devisor and to her Heirs and dyeth Tenant for Life dyeth the Son of the Daughter brings his Formedon against the Heir because he disturbs the Tenant and also the Executors of the Tenant traverse it and at issue and upon this issue is joyned which should not have been so if the Remainder had not been good Also if Assent as 18. E. 4. 12. by Catesby ante 8. post 31. to the Diseisen made before to anothers use may Traverse the Free-hold from one to another à fortiori a condition may namely where the Franck-Tenement precedes to which a Condition may be annexed Morgan Serjeant for the Plaintiff The Plea is not good because it doth not shew the day in certain of the death of W. nor of the Husband and Wife but he argued not this Also it is not good because he shewed not the

will not claim nor enter into the said land in bar that he entred not nor claimed the Plaintiff replies that he claims he ought to say how viz. That he came to the Land and claimed and entred So in 5. E. 4 6. in Replication the Plaintiff ought to shew how he is next of bloud to the Woman ravished with consent to the ravishment So for Mortmain how he is Ld. So for receipt how he came to the reversion by special conveyance to the things which the Statutes give by general words as here Titles alwaies ought to be certain because he that makes Title is by this an Actor and an Actor ought to plead certainly by Hales fol. 51. b. If a Wife which hath a Joyncture by her Husband suffers a faint recovery contrary to 11. H. 7. if the Daughter enter the Son born after shall not out her during the life of the Wife By Montogue he may enter presently and save because the Statute saith he shall enjoy it according to his Title therein and the Title is Tail which is devolved to the Son and after f. 1●… But the Daughter because prima de sanguine ●…ring because the Wife assents to the Ravisher shall hold against the Son born afterwards and there it is Fee-simple In 5. E. 4.6 So 9. H. 7.25 the Daughter shall hold the Remainder appointed to the right Heirs against a Son born afterwards because it is vested in the Daughter as a purchaser because it is Fee-simple to which the Son afterwards born hath not right for the Land was never in any of his Ancestors before Et possessio fratris de feodo simplici facit c. of Fee-Tail not but it discends to the youngest Son of the half bloud So a Bastard eign-abate in Fee-simple Land and dies without interruption and his issue enter he shall hold against the Mulier puisne 39. E. 3.38 Of Land entailed it is otherwise so it is a great difference between Fee-simple and Fee-Tail and according to the Proverb One shall beat the Bush and another shall have the Bird. As 9. H. 7.24 and 25. A man hath Lands by the Mother and aliens upon Condition and dies without issue the Heir of the part of the Father enters for the Condition broken the Heir on the part of the Mother outs him 14. H. 8.18 by Portman if a Remainder in Tail be once executed the issue in formedon shall declare upon the Gift immediately for all passes at one time and upon one Livery But in 20. Ass Ph. ultima it was shewed of a Reversion after Seisen or making Title by grant of the Reversion he which makes Title is alwaies Actor and ought to plead certainly So 2. H. 6.14 A Patentee sheweth his Letters Patents if he maketh Title by them Words alwaies if they are ambiguous and obscure in Statutes have been expounded according to the intent of the makers as W. 2. cap. 3. speaks when a man amiserit per defaltam is expounded when the Husband and Wife lose by default because the Law alwaies was that the Wife may enter if the Husband alone lose by default So W. 2. cap. 1. Et si finis super hujusmodi tenementa imposterum levetur ipse in re sit nullus The Words seem to make a Fine void but yet it is not void but is a discontinuance and void as to bar the right of Tail So the Statute of Gloucester cap. 3. saith Whereof no Fine is levied intends by husband and Wife for they may well levy the marriages of Women and their Estates and advancement by this are greatly favoured in our Law for 14. H. 8.7 The Wife shall recover her Land given causa matrimonii praelocuti if the Feoffee will not marry her So shall have all Free-hold after Divorce So a Wife shall have a Cui ante divortium to recover the land lost by the Husband and Wife by default before the Divorce So 11. H. 7. intends to punish women if they will recompence this favor of the Law with wrong to the disinherison of Heirs here the Wife hath an Estate in the use and by his inhereditament and the Land and Use also is the inheritance of the Husband and therefore within the words of the Statute because an Use is an Hereditament For 5. E. 4.7 possessio fratris of an Use good for the Sister also if she hath the value of 40. s. in Use 15. H. 7.13.5 E. 4 7. and by Litl 108. he shall be sworn in Assizes by the Common Law and Statute of Pernors of Profits and other Statutes have admitted an Use for an Hereditament and the Land and use also is the inheritance of the Husband for an inheritance is such an Estate as the Heir may inherit as he may here and every Fee and Tail by purchase or discent is inheritance by Littleton and Britton contains many errors As to the Case of cui in vita in 7. H. 4. before fol. 47. by those of the Chancery and also by the Register Original 232. is the one the other quam clamat esse jus hereditat c. The Feoffees here were seised to the use of the husband and every of them hath an entire Use for between Husband and Wife are no moieties and after the execution of the possession to the Use By 27. H. 8. The Parliament made the Conveyance of the Land from one to another and the Feoffees are Donors for when a Gift is made by Parliament every one by it is privy and assents to it yet the thing shall pass from him which hath most right and most Authority to give it As in 21. H. 7.32 He to whose Use and the Feoffee joyn in a Feoffment it shall be said the Feoffment of the Feoffee for they have most Authority for to give this So Tenant for Life and he in a Reversion joyns in a Feoffment it shall be adjudged the Livery of the Tenant for Life So if one seised in Fee and another which hath nothing joyns in a Feoffment it shall be said the Feoffment of him which hath right and the confirmation of the other So here it shall be said the Gift by Parliament of the Feoffees and the assent and confirmation of all others For if any other shall be adjudged the Donor the Parliament should do wrong to the Feoffees in taking the thing from them And an Act of Parliament will not prejudice any man as 19. H. 6.62 the Rector of Edington had an exemption from Tythes by the Kings Grant he afterwards agrees to the Act which granted Tythes to the King and so was one of the Grantors yet shall not take benefit by this but shall be discharged For the Common Law saith That none shall be damnified by such general Act made by the Parliament and therefore W. 2. cap. 1. Gifts upon Condition shall not take away right Pattent in London but that remains to this day with protestation to sue in the nature of a Formedon in

which ought to pay it 13. E. 4.6 The Title of the King appeareth yet he is not party the Court of Office shall adjudge for him Stamford cap. 29. fol. 96. Fitzh nat br 38. E. 31. 6. H. 7.12 and 11. H. 4.71 by customes the custom of London to retain a pledge cujuscunque fuerit until he pays binds not the King 35. H. 6.35 nonsale in market overt 35. H. 6.28 and Doctor and Student 40. nor Wreck Waise nor Stray binds not the King 35. H. 6.26 27. Custom that all distresses taken within his Mannor shall be impounded there binds not the King 21. E. 3 4. by Statutes which binds not the King where he is not named yet he shall take advantage of them As of the Stat of Waste of 9. R. 2. c. 3. of Error and attaint by him in reversion upon a recovery against Tenant for life And of W. 2. c. 7. fol. 140. If the King as Heir to his mother brings asur cui in vita the Plea shall not be delayed by the Nonage of the Heir the King not named is not restrained by Magna Charta cap. 10. upon which the Ne injuste vexes is founded for to avoid incroachment That if the King incroach more then he ought he hath no other remedy then by Petition The King bringeth a Quare impedit in the Common Pleas good notwithstanding Magna Charta quod communia placita c. 31. E. 3.18 E. 3.22 before fol. 240. Plenarty no Plea against the King 43. E. 3.14 Non obstante W. 2. cap. 5.32 H. 8. cap. 2. Of Limitations binds not the King The King may not suffer a Common Recovery for to Dock the Tail as a common person may because no precipe or Covenant lieth against him 12. H 7.12 by Constable So the King shall be in a worse condition then a subject or common person to bar the issue Anthony Brown Justice The name of King drowns the Sir-name of the King and includes it and his proper name also and this word of substance by it self may not be omitted in purchases Pattents or Writs Land given to Henry the seventh omitting King giveth nothing to him omitting his name of Baptism So a gift by him by these words in the Pattent Rex concessit That the name Politick of the King includes his natural name and when this name is conjoyned to his natural person it altereth the quality and degree of the person natural in the estimation of the Law So if that he be within age he shall be adjudged of full age and his attainder frustrate when he is King that the greater removes the Imperfection of the Lesser before fol. 138. the body politick hath the preheminence of the natural body as Land given to the King by the name of Baptism and of King also as to Henry the King and to his Heirs this shall go in succession as the Crown and if he dieth without issue the Heir of the part of his mother which hath the Crown shall have the Land also because this name King being the greater shall have the greater preheminence in the purchase and shall draw the land with him So that his brother of the half bloud being King shall have it yet here the King shall take in such body and in such estate and condition as the Donor limits and not otherwise So if a Gift had been made before the Statute to the King and the Heirs of his Body he had taken Fee Conditional as another Common person That if he dies without issue the Donor should enter without Office And if the King before the Stat. giveth to one and his Heirs of his body there the King shall not have the Reversion more then a Common person should have and there his Donee might alien after issue because the person of the King shall not rule the estate of the land but on the contrary for to make Remitter right and possession ought to discend to one person simul and semel 19. H. 6.59.58 and 45. before the Statute after Issue the Donee might do all acts of a full Fee because then he had full Fee and inheritance and not before 5 6 7 and 8. E. 3. And the words in the Statute hath given prius facia non extenditur intends not the Donees made by the Donors before the Statute but of alienations made by the Donees before the Statute and lawfully and after issue as a Lease for life and release of Tenant in Tail before the Statute good and barred the issue in Formedon after the Statute because it was not voidable neither before nor after the Act if it was according to the power that the Common Law permitted to them 44. E. 3. But the Statute extends as to Alienations after the Statute where the Gift was before So as to the Alienation before the Statute if it were not lawfull as a woman Tenant in Tail taketh Husband having issue they alien before the Statute the issue shall have a Formedon after the Statute that is a discontinuance to the wife because Covert and when she dies a right discends to the issue but if they have aliened by Fine it is good and bars the issue because there it is duly made in respect that she is examined 4. E. 2.12 H. 4.7 before the Statute the King might not Alien before issue had as a Common person might not because the King could not do wrong and his Prerogative could not alter his estate yet the person of the King might alter the course of the thing as purchase of the King shall discend to the eldest daughter onely but if land discend to the King another or Gavel kind to him and his brother the King shall have but the Moity but this Moity shall discend to his eldest Son onely because the quality of the person may alter the discent not the estate be it Fee or Tail So that the estate shall be in the King as in another before fol. 234. and before issue had the Donee could not alien after issue he might and this mischief and other Acts of the Donee the Common Law permitted to Bar issues and the Donor until remedied by the Statute So the Common Law permits other wrongs as Lessee to make waste So if one Joynt-Tenant takes all the profits of the land the other is without remedy at the Common Law Doctor and Student fol. 32. So if the King kill a man So disinheriting of another as here post prolem is a wrong suffered by the Common Law which otherwise the issue should have had and if the issue had not issue then the Donor before the Statute the Donor had not a Reversion yet the land reverted to him as land escheated to the Lord neither had he a Reversion after the Statute of W. 2. c. 1. Yet no word in the Act divides the Statute but the Construction of the Statute ex consequenti divides the estate for to execute the will of the Donor by the intent of

copulative for to make words to stand with reason and with the intent of the parties as the Obligee shall pay 10. l. if he infeoff not him or his Heirs when he cometh to I. intends yet words disjunctive in sense That he shall infeoff him if he be living and if dead then his Heirs because he cannot have an Heir during his life so here a Covenant to make a Lease at a time to come to him and his Assignes Copulatively shall be taken disjunctively viz. to him if he be alive and to his Assignes if he be dead So 4. Mar. before 171. A. and B. Grants a Rent Charge of 20. s. out of all lands which they both have the Grantee shall have several 20. s. out of both their lands and yet the Grant was out of the lands which were to A. and B. 19. H 6.3 I release all actions which I have against A. and B. if he hath any actions against either of them they are gone So Arbitrators 2. R. 3.18 may make Arbitrement of actions joynt and several where one and two others submit themselves to their arbitrement because it literally couples them yet in sense goes to them severally And so in the Common case in Indenture of bargain and sale which Covenants to make a sure estate or deliver evidences to the Bargainee and his heirs within two moneths and he dies before he ought to make the estate to his Heirs because impossible to be performed literally viz. joyntly for in his life he cannot have Heirs that thing which another doth by my authority is my act As if I demise That I. S. shall sell my land or authorize my Steward to demise it or my Baily to sell my sheep which doth it so it is my alienation demise and sale by him So the second Executor shall be immediate Executor and in such degree to the first Testator as the first executor was as chosen by the first executor by force of the Authority given to him by the first Testator which intends the same or otherwise all contracts would be destroyed by the Common Law in a short time viz. after the death of the first executor because administrators could not have actions given to the intestate untill 31. E. 3. cap. 11. proved by 10. E. 3.2 the executor of an executor because executors have not those actions by the Common Law but by Statute and because by equity they were not to be extended to an executor of an executor but the action of Debt was put in the Act in 25. E. 3. cap. 5. not of necessity because the Law gave it to an executor of an executor before but for to take away the doubt that some had of it and so an executor of an executor may have all actions that the Common Law gives to the first executor and so may have actions of Covenant and if not they should have it by equity of the Statute of 25. E. 3. cap. 5. Admitting that the word Assignee was void or omitted out of the Covenant yet this Lease here shall be made to the executor for that the intent which is the chief thing to be considered in every agreement was such which shall be performed so near as may be or the words shall not be effectual and the chief effect of the agreement was the estate which should be made not the person to whom but if the Tenant bind himself and Covenant to do corporall service to the Lord he cannot to the Heir or executor because it must be done to the body of the Lord and if I perish the thing also perisheth The intent performed and not the words good as in the cases of Litl fol. 82. That the Feoffee shall re-infeoff the Feoffor and his Wife and the Heirs of their two bodies before fol. 6. And it is not requisite alwaies that in agreements every thing ought to be performed according to the words for if the Mortgagee accept of another thing in another place good Litl f. 79. So if the Obligee cometh not to the place at the day appointed to receive his summ he hath not lost it 7. E. 4.4 but 19. H. 8 12 if the Obligee sue for the penalty the Obligor ought to shew that he was ready at the day and place and say that he is yet ready So payment of a lesser summ at another place Perk. fol. 145. or before the day 10 H. 7.14 good So Litl fo 77. upon a Mortgage the Heir or Executor of the Feoffer shall pay at a day certain and Litl fol. 76. the Feoffee of the Feoffee pays at the day good because he hath interest in the Land So 17. E. 3. ass pl. 2. the Disseisor Grants by Indenture That if the Disseisee paies unto him 10. l. such a day that one release which the Disseisee hath made to him shall be void and before the day the Disseisor makes a Feoffment and at the day 10. l. was paid to the Feoffee Words performed and not the intent as it may be in some cases yet the agreement is not performed as 21. H 6.10 before fol. 23. one binds himself that his Feoffees of the mannor of D. shall Grant out of it 40. s. annual Rent to the Plaintiff he hath 3. Feoffees and two Grants it is nought because he intended that all should do it for there but two parts of the Mannor are charged So 3. H. 7.4 one bindes himself to infeoff me of the Mannor of Dale he infeoffs an other of parcel and afterwards me of the Mannor he hath performed the words but not the intent which was That I shall have all the Mannor as then it was So before fol. 21. and 23. si vellet inhabitare residens c. during the Term intends all the Term. So 10.

One hath a Villain for years as an executor the Villain purchaseth hands the executor enters it shall be to the use of the Testator and assets in his hands because the Villain which was the cause of it was to such use So here the Covenant which was the cause of the Lease cometh to the executors in right of the

the Devise shall be void So of an infant which maketh his will publisheth it and dieth at ful age it is not of any effect because death without good Commencement giveth not effect And so the Commencement and the intent of it is to be considered in every act So the Disseisee of two acres in Dale releaseth all his right in all Lands in D. and delivers the release as a scrowle to be delivered the first of May as his Deed the Disseisor before the first of May disseises him of another acre and the release is delivered the 10. of May the right as to the 3. acre shall not pass because the first livery was void to this intent so the consummation of it which is the second livery So I have a Reversion of two acres that I.

Attourns to B. for all three the third acre passeth not for Attornment passeth not more then was contained in the intent of the first Grant And so here That which is not in the intent at the begining Commencement of the grant shal not be in the intent at the consummation of the same but if he had published his will after he had purchased the new Land there it may be all might pass for by the new publication his intent shall be taken That all that which the words contain at the time of the publication will pass and by him if a man Devise a thing by a name certain as the Mannor of D. or white acre and after purchase the same it shall pass for it shall be taken that he intended to purchase it or otherwise the Will shall be void to all intents 39. H. 6 18. But here when he hath 10. acres and Devises all his Lands they are satisfied in passing of the 10. acres and there is no meaning by the words for the land purchased after the Will because the thing is not named certainly as the Mannor of Dale or White-acre Also he may not Devise the 12. acres because by Dier the Statute 32. and 34. H. 8. cap. 1. and 5. intend that the Devisor shall be seized at the time of the making of the will because it speaks of having Lands which he may Devise and here he hath not those at the time of the Devise Quaere of the case where he Devises by special name and after purchases it because of the word having Second point if the Land vests in the Heir of the Devisor where he dieth in the Life of the Devisor Manwood for the Defendant Because it is more consonant to the will of the Devisor and reason That the effect shall take place and the form perish rather then both should perish together as Devisee for life the Remainder over dies in the life time of the Devisor it is a good Remainder and shall have the immediate possession which is the effect yet the form was for to have by Remainder So if a Dean die or a woman Covert taketh another husband before their Devisor dies yet they are especially named Land shall vest in the new Dean and his Successors and in the woman which is now the wise of another according to the intent because it cannot according to the words and if the intent of a man in Conditions shall be performed as 4. H. 7. by Joy he ought to infeoff the survivor and his heirs onely where the other dieth a fortiori the intent in Wils shall be observed where the words cannot and the effect here is that the Heir shall have the Land and it is the form of the limitation that he shall have it by discent 21. R. 2. Remainder Ecclesiae-Sancti Andreae in Holborn good And Parson shall take because it was comprehended in the Devise although he was not named Lovelas and all the Justices besides Walsh to the contrary For by the death of the Devisee the Devise is countermanded for that the Devisee is not in rerum natura when the Devise took effect and in all gifts be they by Devise or otherwise there ought to be a Donee in esse capable when the thing ought to vest or otherwise the gift is void and the word Heirs limits the estate and not the persons which shall take and enables the Devisee as well to alien as to permit it of Discent for a Discent to the Heir is but a thing subsequent to the estate of Fee-simple first vested in the Devisee and a thing at his pleasure And things of sequel which ensue if the estate had been vested first as are Discent Dower Escheat are not good causes to make things vest in others then those to whom limited And therefore the heir shall not have the land here no more then the woman shall have dower or Lord Escheat if he had died without heir which should be so if it had vested in the Devisee And therefore if a man Devise a Lease or goods to I. S. which dies and afterwards the Devisor dies the Executor of I. S. shall not have them The speaking to the Son of the Devisee That he shall be his heir c. is void for that the Statutes of 32. and 34. H. 8. gives licence and authority to every man to Devise his Lands by his last Will and Testament in writing and those are sufficient in themselves for to make the thing devised pass and not regard words without writing by all the Justices but if he had published the Testament of new the Devisee should have the 12. acres in this case for that it had been as it were a new Testament but not his heirs Delamer against Barnard A Man in 13.

Because that the devise to the Wife is good during the Minority of the Sonne and by the exposition of the Court shall be intended to precede the devise to the Sonne in sense and intent and the devise to the Sonne to succeed 540 5●…1 a. 2.

The Common Law to make the intent of the Parties take effect puts order to words contained in deeds without order as the Releafe of the Disseisor and Disseisee to the Less●e for yeares of the Disseisor shall be first or the Disseisor and after the Disseisee otherwise it wonteth previty between him and the Lessee So Tenant for life Houses for yeares and he and him in Reversion cons●…mes the Estate of Lessee for yeares habendum in Fee The Law adjudgeth the Estate of the Tenant first to passe for to make previtie upon which Release that of him in the Reversion may enure to enlarge the Estate So a Termor for thirty yeares and his Lessee in Possession for ten yeares by himselfe may not surrender for want of previty And therefore his surrender shall be taken to succeed the other Land is devised to one in Fee after a Rent out of it to another in Fee good So fol. 523. because it shall be taken first devised although it be subsequent in words As the Will repeales the first so the last part of the Will repeales to the first part of the Will which is contrary to it because he had such Intent last As a devise of Land to one in Fee in the premises and in the end of the Will to another in Fee But here is not any such contrariety 2.

this shall remain is a limitation of time when this shall vest and not a condition by Hinde and Montague 6. Admitting that it be a condition yet a remainder may depend upon a condition By Hales Hinde and Montague and adjudged accordingly 7. The Plaintiff hath not conveyed to himself Title to have benefit of the breach of the condition if it be broken By Montague Pollard Serjeant for the Plaintiff Except that the Form of the Plea is sufficient 1 Because he doth not aver his continual residence after the Remainder happened but after his entry which may happen to be long time after and so although that he hath performed the words of the condition which hath not satisfied the intent thereof yet he hath not performed the condition because the intent was That he should have all the Mannor So 21. H. 6.10 A man is bound that his Feoffees of the Mannor of D. should grant a Rent of 40. s. to the Plaintiff He had three Feoffees and two of them grant the said Rent to him and there all the Justices said That it shall be intended all the Feoffees so that alwaies the intent of the condition ought to be as well performed as the words of the condition and here the intent of the condition appears to be That Hospitality shall be kept upon the Grange continually from the beginning to the end of the Term which is the death of the Husband and the Wife and here he hath not shewed that he entred within as short time as he conveniently could after the death of the Husband and Wife and therefore because he hath not shewed and averred this he hath not shewed the performance of the condition and therefore his plea is not good For in all cases where the time is issuable he ought also to shew it certainly and therefore in 32. H. 6. it is held That if a man plead a Lease for years made to him that he ought to shew what day the Lease was made because it is issuable So in 33. H. 6.44 In debt by an Executor the Defendant saith That the Testator made the Plaintiff and one R. his Executors at L. the which R. is alive and not named judgement of the Writ and the Plaintiff confessing it saith That after this time last assigned by the Plaintiff that the Testator made the Plaintiff his sole Executor in Middlesex and the Defendant saith That after this time last assigned by the Plaintiff that the Testator made the Plaintiff and R. his Executors after this time and the Plea of the Defendant was not held good for that the day on which the Plaintiff and R. were made Executors is uncertain So 3. H. 6.33 In Trespass the Defendant pleads in Bar the day of the retaining of the Plaintiff who traverseth the Bar and the Defendant enforced to shew the day certain Matter in Law As to the matter in Law it seemeth to him that the Remainder is void because it ought alwaies to be limited to take its effect after the partricular estate ended and not during the particular estate for if it be limited and appointed to take its effect during the particular estate then it shall be utterly void As if A. Leases to B. for life the Remainder for life and if B. dies that it shall remain over to a stranger in Fee this Remainder is void for that it is appointed to take effect immediately after the first estate for life ended for if the Remainder in Fee should commence then it shall avoid the Remainder for life so if a Lease be made to two the Remainder over in Fee after the death of the first of them this Remainder is void because the Survivor shall have the Land So in the principal case it is given to the Baron and Fem for their lives the Remainder to the eldest son for life upon conditon That if the eldest die living husband and wife that then it shall remain to the Defendant for life which cannot be for the first estate at this time continues and if the Remainder shall be good it drowns the estate of husband and wife and therefore the Remainder void and also for that it is limited to commence upon condition which enures alwaies in privity therefore if a lease for life be made rendring rent and upon condition That if the Rent be arear that then it shall remain to a stranger in Fee if the Rent be arear and not paid the remainder is void for the Remainder which commence upon condition is not good otherwise it is if an estate be made for life upon condition That if the Tenant for Life dies it shall remain over this Remainder is good because that it commenceth upon the Determination of the I state the which is certain and therefore no condition because conditions are alwaies incertain and may be performed or broken and as our Law is for to know the time certain when the things pass from one to another and namely Free-hold because the Law hath it in greater estimation then other things and so to prevent contention hath ordained Ceremonies to be used as in every Feoffment Livery and in every Grant Reversion or Rents c. That Attornment shall be made the which are points certain containing time and by them Estates pass Rules to know when Remainders are good The Law hath appointed that every Remainder shall have three things by the matters aforesaid as Notes and Rules certain for to discern when good The first is an Estate precedent made at the same time that the remainder Commences and that the particular Estate continue when the Remainder vests and that the remainder be from the Donor at the time of Livery and if any of the said three things fail the Remainder is void And therefore for the first point if the Lessor confirm the state of his Tenant for years the Remainder in Fee this Remainder is vold for that the Estate for years was made before the Remainder So if a Lessor disseise his Tenant for Life and after makes a new Lease to him for Life the remainder in Fee this Remainder is void because it is a Remitter to his Estate So an Estate precedent was not made at the time of the remainder and therefore the Remainder is void So the Heir endows his Mother Remainder in Fee by reason of Relation and so the precedent Estates are made before the Remainder appointed Secondly That the particular Estate continue when the remainder vests as 21. H. 7.12 per Frowick Lease for Life upon Condition That if he doth not such an Act that his Estate shall cease and that then the Remainder over is void because the Estate precedent is determined before the Remainder appointed and the Remainder must vest during the particular Estate Thirdly because the Remainder passes from the Lessor at the time of the delivery as Hales Hinde and Montague say and as it is proved by the Cases before cited So Perkins 12. and 19.

compulsive so that he shall have prejudice if he doth not but is a thing obligable at the will of the Defendant and then his entry is not material but is at pleasure and therefore the not shewing thereof shall not make the Plea vicious Admitting that it be a Condition yet it is subsequent and in Defeasance of his Estate 30. And therefore shall not be shewed by him but by him which shall have benefit by the breaking of it So if a Condition be enlarged which may be good leaveth that out which is material because it is Surplussage Also it hath no Livery for to convey Title nor hath it enabled him any waies to take the benefit of the breach of the Condition if it were broken because he hath Demurred generally upon the Bar in which the Defendant hath not acknowledged any reversion And so it appeareth not by the Record that he is other then a meer stranger And by the Common Law no man shall take benefit of a Condition but such a one as is privy And therefore 38. H. 8.34 Pattentees of the King after 177. Also if it be a Condition during the Term it shall be intended all the Term as a man bound to perform Covenants is bound to perform all and his Feoffees fol. 30. Yet if he be sometimes absent and his Family there it is good because the Law shall have a reasonable Construction in things alwaies If W. dies then the Remainder is a Limitation and appoyntment of the time when the remainder shall vest But admitting that it be a Condition yet a Remainder may depend upon a Condition which every lawfull owner of the land may give to what person or persons and in what manner and at what time he pleaseth if his gift be not against Law or repugnant as 10. E. 3.39 A man makes to his Termor in surety of his Term a Charter of Feoffment upon Condition That if he be disturbed of any part of his Term that then he shall have Fee he was disturbed and afterwards outed and recovers in Assise which proves that the Franck-Tenant passed upon condition express to the Livery be it mediate or immediate it stales not the Remainder because his Livery shall be taken most strongly against him So 27. H. 8.24 Remainder to a stranger if the gift fail for bearing of the standard So in Plessintons case it is held That the estate of Free-hold there could not Commence upon Condition but the cause wherefore was because he had not the Free-hold upon performance of the Condition which was repugnancie So a Remainder upon condition contrary to the Law or impossible is not good because a Condition unlawfull or impossible may not obtain the thing by doing of it So if the Do●… aliens then it shall remain is not good because repugnant for when he hath aliened to one it may not remain to another Remainder ought to have estate precedent for that 9. H. 6.24 Lease to a Monk Remainder over void because a Monk hath not capacity and so the estate which precedes the Remainder void Remainder also ought to be of a thing in esse before and therefore a Grant of a rent out of land remainder in Fee void because the rent was not in esse before and the remainder here passeth presently by the Livery upon possibility to be afterwards performed and vests when W. dies and in the mean time rests in abeyance as 15. H. 7.10 Fee Tail passeth upon possibility That a Fem Covert and a married man may inter-marry and in the mean time the Inheritance viz. The Tail shall be in abeyance but holden there That they are seised in Tail presently and concludes that the Remainder is good and the pleading also and so the Plaintiff shall be Barred Plat against the Sheriffes of London ONe Goodlad was in Execution Ludgate upon a recovery in Debt had against him by plaint in the Guild-Hall of London 4 E. 6. In the Excheq and going with a Baston that is to say a Servant of the Gaolers attending upon him into Southwark in the County of Surrey and the Administrator of him which recovered brings his Bill of Debt into the Exchequer against the Sheriffs for the escape and adjudged that he should recover thereupon But no exceptions were taken to the Bill and the reasons of the Judgement were 1. For that the Action lyeth at the Common-Law by 45. E. 3.9 Debt against one Abbot or Prior and also for that That he had not remedy against him which escaped for by the esape he is discharged for ever against the party and the Goaler also and the Officer which suffers the escape is charged contrary to 13. H. 7.1 But the Action lay not by the Common Law by 42. ass 11. 2. Admitting that it lay not by the Common Law yet it lyeth by equity of the Statute of 1. R. 2. c. 12. which gives an Action against the Warden of the Fleet or by the equity of the Statute of Westm 2. c. 11. which gives an Action against the Gaoler which suffers an Accomptant for to escape 3. The defendants have admitted the action good by their Demurrer 4. That it is an escape because he was out of the Jurisdiction and Authority of the Sheriffs and that his Imprisonment is ended the last instant that he was in London and his escape began the first instant that he came into Southwark and so he was never in prison in Southwark for he had no guard there The effect of every suit contains and implies in it selfe 3. things First to shew the verity of the matter to the Judge thereof which is the duty of the party Secondly to have judgement to recover and execution thereupon and this is the duty of the Judge Thirdly the making of execution for to take the Defendants body and detain it in prison and this is the duty of the Officer and because he only hath offended it is reason that he be punished that is That he answer the loss to the Plaintiff for that he hath not any remedy against him which escapes nor the Gaoler never apprehended him because a personal thing once suspended is extinguished and therefore if the Debtee maketh the Debtor and another which surviveth the Debtor his Executors yet the Debt is extinct and the person of either of them discharged Therefore in respect that after the escape the Plaintiff shall not have other execution and so without any remedie against the Defendant in the first suit the Common Law which is Common Reason provides That the Plaintiff shall have an Action of Debt against the Gaoler in whose default the Execution of the Plaintiff or otherwise the Common Law will be defective in this point And therefore by 45.

Debt upon an escape of one in Execution was maintainable against the Major of the Staple who in excuse of himself saith That he was imprisoned by force of a plaint and not in Execution the words of R. 2. prohibites the Warden of the Fleet onely to suffer any in Execution to go out of Prison by Baston Mainprise or Bail and by equity all other Gaolers yet these in London use it and it is not an escape in them because they may prescribe against the equity and words of Statutes which is contrary to their Customs and Prescriptions for that their Customs as Prescriptions are confirmed by Statute and contrary to the Statute of Silva cedua and keeping gof Leets at other times then the Statute appoints and so let them in execution to go by Baston within their liberty But others shall be bound by equity of the said Statute and because this Statute extends to others by equity in this point of escape it shall extend also to an Action to charge other Officers as to matters of escape A prisoner marry the Warden of the Fleet this is an escape and he is at liberty for he cannot be under his Wifes Custody So if the Office discends to an Heir which is a prisoner there he shall be adjudged at Liberty although he lieth in fetters because he cannot be his own keeper in prison Baitons case 44. and Ridgwaies case 3. 52. by which it appeareth that the cause here is to be understood of voluntary escapes in the Gaoler for if the prisoner escape to his own wrong the Plaintiff shall have a new Capias ad satisfaciendnm if the Writ of Capias upon which he is not imprisoned be not returned or shall be in Execution to the Plaintiff again if he be re-taken by the Sheriff before an Action brought against him upon the escape Wimbish against Talbois THe Husband makes a Feoffment in Fee to the use of himself 4.

H. 8. of Uses was made the Husband and Wife entred the Husband dies the Wife suffers a recovery by Confession the first day which is not executed and the Issue in Tail enters for the forfeiture by the Statute of 11. H. 7. c. 10. and the opinion of the Court. 1. That the entry is lawfull and this forfeiture is within the words of the Statute although that the wife had not any estate in the Land in use yet shee had the use in the Land which is all one and this is an Hereditament which will make Possessio fratris by 5. E. 4. and was appointed by the Act of the Husband and was an inheritance and purchase in him and so within the words of the first branch of the Stat. of 11. H. 7. 2. Admitting that it should be out of the words of the first branch because it speaks of gifts to the Husband and wife by any seised to his use and Feoffees are Donees by the Stat. of 27. H. 8. of Uses by 6. E. 6. Formedon 40. 3. Admitting that it be forth of the words of the first branch yet it is within the equity because it is a benificial law and in advancement of justice and suppression of fraud 4. That a remedy by Covin upon a false or true cause is within the Statute although no execution be sued for the Covin is a Condition in Law annexed to an estate which Condition is broken although that Execution is not sued the Statute is general of Recoveries by Covin and includes all recoveries this Condition annexed to the use shall transfer to the possession by the Stat. of 27. H. 8. 5. That he which entred by such forfeiture shall be seised in Tail or Fee as shee should be if the Wife were dead and this in course of discent and not purchase paramount contrary to Hales and that a Son born may enter upon the Daughter which hath entred for such forfeiture contrary of a purchase and that the entry for the forfeiture is maintainable presently in the life of the Wife which maketh it and he which enters may aver generally in pleading That he is that person which ought to take benefit of the forfeiture by all the Justices contrary to Montague Cook Sergeant to the Defendant which saith That the Replication is not good because it shews not how he is Heir in special but hath averred That he is the same person to which c. general abatement for it is issuable and when such Statutes gives entry generally to one yet if he will take advantage of it he shall shew how he is the same person and shall not say generally that he is the same person as upon 6. R. 2. cap. 6. which will enter by assent to the Ravisher 5. E. 4. 6. ought to shew how he is next Heir yet the Stat. is general so for prayee to be received upon default of Tenant for life by W. 2. cap. 3. ought to shew how he came to the Reversion So he which will Intitle himself upon 7. E. 1. for entry upon Mortmain how he is Lord. As to the Obligation That because the Defendant in Bar in saying whose heir he is hath affirmed the Plaintiff to be heir and therefore in the Replication hath conveyed himself to his entry as Heir special and so the Replication ill for default of certainty Secondly for that the Plaintiff hath not shewed that execution was had of the said recovery against the Defendant Thirdly Exception because he hath not evered the Covin specially for otherwise it is not intendable in Recoveries because they are alwaies intended true and upon good cause and therefore the Wife at the Common Law

by default against her and her husband had not any other remedy then a Writ of Right before the Statute of W. 2. cap. 3. which gives a Cui in vita and before W. 2. cap. 3. a faint Recovery against Tenant for life bound him in Remainder Litl Release 112. because the Law presumes the Title and case true So a Recovery upon a faint Title by a man of Religion was out of the penalty of the Statute of Religiosis untill W. 2. cap. 23. made a Recovery without Title in such plight as a Feoffment in Mortmain was for the truth supposed by the Law to be therein So here the Recovety is intended to be true and therefore the Plaintiff ought to shew matter if there be any to prove the contrary As in 11. H. 4.19 if the Tenant in a precipe vouch one of the Demandants he ought to shew cause because otherwise the Law will presume that he hath not cause against right So 15. E. 4.4 Contrary entry by Title general averment of Covin by the Plaintiff in Dower was not held good Matter in Law As to the matter in Law it seemeth here that the case is clear out of the words and penalty of the Statute of 11. H. 7. cap. 30. For although 27. H. 8. hath executed the Possession to the use yet this case remains here so as if 27. H. 8. had never been made and the Wife had continued Tenant in Tail in use and out of the words of the first branch because he hath an Estate Tail in the use in the land but hath not an Estate in the land in the use and the Statute speaks of an Estate in the Land and this Hereditament or use which is the matter and substance and the use it self which is the confidence of the thing differ But one may not have the state in Land and use also because suspended yet two may to the use of one of them as Husband and Wife to the use of the Wife and so it shall be intended here Also the first branch speaks of lands c. of Inheritance or purchase of the Husband but here the use is a new thing which Commenceth now and was not in being before and so is not the inheritance or purchase of the Husband and therefore out of the Statute as a Rent granted to one out of lands to the use of the Wife of the Grantor or if the Husband gives a signiory in Tail to the Wife for her Joyncture and the Tenancie Escheat and the Wife suffer a faint Recovery this is forth of the Statute So the Husband makes a Feoffment upon Condition to re-enfeoffee him and his Wife in Tail the Wife suffers a faint Recovery this is out of the Statute because the Feoffment of the Land from the Possession of the Husband and was her purchase and not the purchase of the Husband or his Inheritance for the Condition which is the cause of the gift is a new thing is not within the second branch because the Wife had nothing here of the gift of any of the Ancestors of the husband Nor the third branch because the wife had not possession by the Statute nor by the Feoffees to the use of him in Reversion but he in Reversion hath the present Title and so the Statute shall be intended and therefore he may enter presently If Tenant for Life suffer a faint Recovery but 11. H. 7. saith Enjoy according to their Title intends that he shall not Enter until after the death of his Ancestor because he hath no Title in the life of his Ancestor And therefore when the Wife assents to the Ravisher 6. R. 2. gives title of entry saying habeat titulum intrandi c. intends that he shall not have it in the life of the Ancestor And if the makers of the Statute of 11. H. 7. had intended that the issue in Tail should have entred presently they would have given to him Title by such like words as the Statute of 6. R. 2. hath but the end of the clause which saith That they shall enjoy according to their Title expresses that they intented not so For which causes it is probable that the Defendant is out of the penalty of the Statute and that the Plaintiff might not enter and so shall be Barred Whiddon Serjeant for the Plaintiff Because the Defendant hath said whose Heir he is he shall be taken that he is Heir special for a Plea which hath two intendments shall be taken most strongly against him which pleads it as 3. H. 7.2 in Trespass Release generally is no Plea because it may be taken to be delivered before the Trespass or after So 3. H. 7.8 and 9. and 26. H. 8. Entry to avoid Warranty Collaterall pleaded in Bar is no Plea because it may be intended after the discent for he may enter in the life of the Ancestor or after Also the Plaintiff need not shew how he is Heir because he was once seised by entry But if he had brought a formedon upon the Estate Tail he should because by way of Demand as 6. E. 4.1 Executor brought Trespass for a thing taken out of his Possession he shall not shew his Testament but if he Demands a thing whereof he had not ever possession he shall It is not needfull to shew Covin certainly which is a secret thing and the Law doth not enforce one to shew a thing when by intendment of Law it lieth not in his Conusance as 20. H. 7.7 A woman shall have Dower of a Rent Charge without shewing the Deed of the Grant because it belongeth not to her So the Lord shall have Covin generally for the Ward where his Tenant aliens and re-taketh for life the Remainder to his Heir being it lieth secretly in the breast as suspicion lieth for that he may justisie imprisonment for suspicion of Felony without shewing of the cause of his suspicion So 33. H. 6.5 In Trespass a man buys in a Market Overt the Plaintiff said That the said buying was by fraud between the Defendant and a stranger generally without shewing any thing speciall of the Covin and the Plea the e admitted good So in a Precipe against the Lord of ancient Demeasne and Tenant the Lord shall shew that he is Lord and this Action is brought against him by Covin generally So 9. E. 6.41 He which alleadges Covin ought to shew cause of the Covin and the cause is for that the Recovery or Title was tryed by Verdict because to say that it was by Covin shall not be intended true against a Verdict But Covin generally may be averred against a Recovery not gainsaying or default because this is cause of the Judgement and no Triall Wherefore in this case a man shall aver that this was by Covin generally And as to that which hath been said That execution ought to be shewed of the Recovery that needs not For the Statute speaketh only of the Recovery and without Execution it shall be

H. 7. cap. 20. before fol. 56. but contrary and its words in the Negative viz. and not above twenty one yeers and the continuance of the State shall not alter the possession in other degree then the continuance made it at first where the entry is taken away contrary it is where the entry is lawfull as if the disseisor maketh a Feeffment to the use of the diffeisee and is in possession by 27. H. 8. but untill his reentry is not remitted yet after he shall in respect of the first disseisen and not by possession transferred by the Statute 3. The wife here is not remitted because the Statute of 27. H. 8. executes the possessions of the remitter c. And if it should be a remitter the remainder shall be defeated and void thereby contrary to the words of the Statute And although that by the Feoffment the freehold passeth to the wife and she remains Tenant thereof after the death of her husband and is Tenant to the precipe of a stranger untill her disagreement or disclaimer yet she may use her action against him in the remainder which is a disagreemen in Law to the use and possession conveyed by means thereof and then the possession vests in the next remainder as if the wife had not been named or had been a dead person in Law So if it were to the use of the wife in fee if she refuse it she may use her Action of Cui in vita against the Feoffor or his Heir for by her refusall they are Tenants to her Action and the use reflects to the Feoffor or his Heir for upon a Feoffment to the use of one which refuses which is as to the use as a dead person or of the thing insensible as Pauls Steeple there wanteth considerations and then the Feoffment shall be to the use of the Feoffor and by using of her Action she may purge the incombrance by her husband and so no inconveniency if she were not remitted as was objected It is not a remitter as the case here is if the Estate had been made by immediate Feoffment because the husband survives the wife Littl. here presently fol. 150. she is Tenant to the Action of the Heir of the wife and therefore in 21.

The Plantiff hath shewed in his Declaration That the Defendant was then receiver c. and saith not That the Mannors were the Queens then and therefore shall be intended more strong against him then it should be to a common person and by consequence the Defendant is Baily to a common person by the Court. 2. That no receiver or Baily accomptant of a common person shall be within the Statute of 7. E. 6. c. 1 but onely of the Queen by the Court. 3. That the Action was not maintainable and the matter well alleadged lieth in the Queens Courts at Westminster notwithstanding the Statute of 34. and 35. H. 8. for Wales for that they are in the Affirmative and not in the Negative 4. That by this Statute an Action of debt by original Writ lieth for the forfeiture in the Exchequer howbeit that the party hath not cause of priviledge there 5. The Plaintiff ought to make mention of the Statute of 38. H. 8. and 7. E. 6. in his count for that the one is founded upon the other 6. He ought to shew expresly in his Count That the Queen was seized and made him her Bedel 7.

E. 6. yet within the words for the intent of the makers shall be observed in the exposition of Statutes and so acts general in words have been expounded to be but particular where the benefit hath been particular As the King shall not have Wardship of lands which discends to the youngest Son but of that which discends to the heir general 12. E. 4. Stamford fol. 8. yet the Tenant dyed seized of others in Fee because the Statute of Praerogativa regis cap. 2. intends where the land is holden of the King and a Common person discended to the same Heir where one is Heir to the Tenant And Praerogativa Regis cap. 3. intends not that Soccage in capite shall give to the King primer seisen of lands holden of a Common person yet the words are general before fol. 109. Stamford Prerogative fol. 13. So Marlebr cap. 4. intends where Signiory and Tenancie are in the same County and therefore the Lord may bring a Distress taken in one County to a Mannor in another County of which the land is holden 1. H. 6.3 30. E. 3.6 before fol. 18. So Glouc. cap. 1. giveth Damages to the Disseisee against him which is found Tenant after the Disseisor for that he is Tenant by his own agreement and therefore the Disseisee shall not recover Damages against him which agrees not to a Feoffment made to him and others by the Disseisor yet he is Tenant but not Tenant by his agreement Litl Remitter fol 153. so long 5. E. 4. fol. 142. if he hath view in a precipe and afterwards abates the Writ for false Latine or for some other cause apparent he shall again have another Writ because there the Court might have abated this without motion For W. 2. cap. 49. although general intends where the Tenant abates the Writ by exception not apparent by 25. E. 3. cap. 16. by non-tenure of parcel no Writ abateable but for the quantity intends if the thing demanded be several as Acres but all the Writ shall abate where the thing demanded is entire as a Mannor before fol. 109. and the intent of the Statute never was contrary to the Text. By W. 2. cap. 25. if one fail of a Record he shall be a Disseisor yet a woman Covert shall not be 11.

H. 8. because by the same Statute Wales is divided into 12. Counties and by 34. and 35. H. 8. four Justices are appointed for wales viz. one for every three Counties and hold plea of all things within their circuit and one seal appointed for every circuit and all Actions suable there by the words of

A. and Westminstere 2. cap. 17. which gives the Wardship to the first Feoffor binds not the King for he shall have it albeit he held of him by posteriority And so Prerogativa Regis cap. 2. affirms the Common Law in this point The Statute de Religiosis 7. E. 1. For Mortmain binds not the King nor Marlebridge cap. 9. which Grans That the elder percener onely shall do the suit yet Fitzh nat br fol. 159. all shall do it to the King So the King may sue for debt in the Kings Bench contrary to Magna Charta cap. 11.

E. 3.58 Ass fol. 1. and it is not in Capite if he holds of the King by reason of a Reversion or Mannor and not of his person W. 2. cap. 3. gives receipt generally to him in Reversion yet 25.

the act which amounteth to so much that the precise words and the Statute restrains the estate and not the person of the Donee And the Prerogatives are in respect of the person of the King and goes in his person which the King by Prerogative without other act cannot enlarge but in taking of the estate is restrained with the estate insomuch that the act saith Dominus Rex perpendens c.

If the Devisee shall have the Land purchased by the Devisor after the making of his Will Manwood for the Defendant said That it shall be presumed that every one knows the Law in acts indifferent and that the Will is of no effect until the death of the party for ignorance of Law excuses no man and the date and writing of the Will is not effectual but the words of the Will shall be construed as they were spoken at the time of his death And therefore if a man Deviseth a Mannor in Fee a Tenancie escheateth and after the Devisor dieth the Devisee shall have the Tenancy because parcel of the Manor at the death of the Devisor when the Will taketh effect yet when the will made not A woman Deviseth Land and after takes husband which dies the Woman dies the Devise is good because she is discovert when it took effect as she was when she made her will and marriage cannot countermand it which was not of effect in her life Also because it intends no exception for the generality of the words As if she had Devised all her plate and after bought plate and died the Devisee should have all his plate at the time of her death for the ampleness of his words declares his intent to be benificially taken for the Devisee Lovelas and all the Justices for the Plaintiff to the contrary That Land purchased after the making of the Will cannot pass by the words nor intent of the Testator because he had not the 12. acres at the time of the writing and publication of the Testament it is no presumption that afterwards he would have and is as if he had died when he writ and published the Will and therefore cannot have an intent to give it and the death which is the Confirmation of the Will follows the first Acts thereof viz. the writing and publication of it for every Act founded upon discretion consists of 3. parts The first Inception which is writing of the Testament here The Second Progression which is the publishing of the Testament begun The Third is Consummation which is the self same and continues one through all these parts or otherwise the Act is void of discretion And by Lovelas it is proved That the Commencement is to be considered in Wills because if a woman Covert Devise Land by her Will and publish it and her husband dies and after she dies

Extinguishment Also the Statute of 1. R. 3. extends to cestui que use in possession and not in Remainder or Reversion where they are derived out of one entire estate created by Feoffment for although that the uses are several yet the estate is entire which shall not be divided but he may make a Lease for years to commence after the particular estate determined which is Executory and divides not the estate but where the estate and uses also are several as a Lease for life to the use of one for life and the Reversion granted to another for life to the use of anther for life c. There he in Reversion may grant the Reversion by the Statute of 1. R. 3. for that it is in possession by reason of the severaltie of Estates Cestui que use by the Common Law cannot meddle with the Land for if he doth the Feoffee may punish him in Trespass And if the Feoffee will not permit Cestui que use for to receive the profits he hath no remedy but in the Court of Conscience for the land was so fully to the Feoffee by the Common Law as if no use had been of it And by the Statute of 1. R. 3. cap. 5. Cestui que use in possession onely may meddle with the Land for to make Feoffment Lease c. and the Feoffee is onely seized of the whole Fee to the use of Tenant for life or in Tail during his life or the estate Tail 4. H. 7.18 And the Feoffment of Cestui que use or in Tail or for life is warranted by the Statute of 1. R. 3. and pass the Fee until a Re-entry both by the letter and intent of the Statute for if a woman Covert was Cestui que use the husband might make a Feoffment and good during Coverture by the intent of the Law and the Statute which giveth to the husband during Coverture direction of the things of his wife and yet the claim of the Feoffees were not onely to his use but to the use of him and his wife 6. H. 7.3 So two joynt Cestui que uses in Fee the one maketh a Feoffment of the moity of the Land and good and binds the Feoffees yet were not onely seized to the use of him but by the intent of the Statute hath a moity of the Use presently and may give or Lease the moity of the Land where the estates are several and uses also every part granted by the Statute or several uses issuing out of one estate the several possessions of several uses may not divide the estate because there entire yet there Cestui que use in Remainder in Fee may make a Lease for years to Commence when his use shall be executed because then the lessor shall have interest in the possession and the Franck Tenement of the Feoffees shal not be taken away nor their estate will be divided but an estate for life or greater he in Remainder cannot make without the dividing of the estate or taking away of the Free-hold because it passeth presently and is not executory as a Lease for years is if the Feoffees to use makes a Feoffment upon Consideration or not to one which hath notice of the first use otherwise if Cestui que use maketh a Feoffment to such a person upon Consideration with notice or without Consideration and notice there all the first estate out of which all the uses do rise is taken from the Feoffees and a new estate is made by authority of the Statute the which new estate shall be to uses newly expressed or intended and not to the first use but by this all the ancient uses are discontinued the reason seemeth to be before that one use cannot be raised out of another The release of Cestui que use to the Disseisor of his Feoffees good and bars them of entry 14. H. 8.7 and 27. H. 8.29 a Disseisor infeoffs Cestui que use which infeoffs a stranger by this the right of the first feoffees is gone although that no use was in Cestui que use at the time of the Feoffment as if Cestui que use had released to the Disseisor But Plowden saith That the greater doubt will be here if the estate Tail was here determined if the first Feoffee might enter because the right of the use in fee was extinguished by the Feoffment of him in Remainder But here for that the particular estate in use continues which may not be defeated by him in Remainder this is good without doubt by some the entry of the first Feoffee shall gain the Fee-simple by the discharge of the use in Fee to himself for that it was extinct in the possession of the last Feoffee as of a rent which he in remainder had in the land before his feoffment this shall be extinguished in the Land by his Feoffment so of the use and by others the entry of the first Feoffee shall revive the use in Fee-simple to him in Remainder which was the Feoffor for that they could not have this at the time of the Feoffment made because not in esse but was discontinued at this time by Cestui que use in possession in Tail and by Plowden and Bromley he shall revive the use in Fee to the last Feoffee for that this passeth to him by the Livery and the first Feoffee hath nothing in the Land to his own use but onely to the use of the Feoffor And it was not his intent that the first Feoffee should have it to his own use but that the second Feoffee should have it and so by his re-entry he shall revive the use to the last Feoffee by the course of the Common Law for that the last feoffment was by the Common Law and not Warranted by the Statute of 1. R. 3. for the cause aforesaid but this point was left at large and if before R. 3. Cestui a que use disseises the Feoffees and infeoff others upon which the first Feoffees to use enter they shall be seised to the use of the last Feoffees because Cestui que use had given his interest to them and his intent appeareth that they shall have it and the first Feoffees shall not hold to their own use because it is a Collaterall thing annexed to the person touching the Land and not as a Rent issuing out of it And use is but confidence that the Feoffees to use shal do for the Feoffor as he would do if himself was seized and so it is a difference between a use and a Rent which Rent is only by reason of the Land but use also is annexed to the person Stowell against Zouch DIsseissor Levies a Fine with Proclamations the Disseissee dies after three years H. 11.

By the Counsell of the Plaintiffe the Act of Parliament cannot enure as a Confirmation of an Attainder and as a new Attainder also for then a man shall be twice convict of one Crime which shall be superfluous yet 1. H. 5.5 One attainted of Fellony may be arraigned of Treason because it is a higher offence and shall forfeit Lands of whomsoever holden if the Treason is committed before the Fellony but where offences are equall he shall not be twice attainted for one Deed shall not be a Confirmation and Grant of one same thing As the King recites by his Letters Patents that he hath made J. a Denison or hath manumissed him being his villain and confirm it and besides grants that he shall be a Denison or Free all this is but a confirmation because the Kings Patents shall not enure to two intents and therefore cannot plead the second Patent for his Legitimation or Manumission But the first Patent so 9. H. 7.2 before fol. 156. and 7. H. 7.14 The King grants Land by his Letters Patents and reciting them confirmes the Estate of the Patentee by the second Letters Patents by authority of Parliament and saith further that he gives and grants the same Land to the Patentee he shall plead the second by way of Confirmation because the Land pass by the first Patent not by the second if he doth not shew that the Land came again to the Kings hands after the first Patent But if the King grants Pasture for two Oxen in his Land and by the second Patent reciting his first Grant confirmes it and moreover giveth and granteth Pasture for two Oxen to the first Grantee there it shall enure as a Grant and confirmation also And the Grantee shall have Pasture for foure Oxen because they are severall things which are mentioned in the Confirmation and in the Grant And in the other Cases before it is one same thing mentioned in both and not severall Also the Statute recites none but persons therere cited to be attainted but the Plaintiffe was not attainted before for the reasons aforesaid therefore he is not attainted by the Statute as the King recites by name that such and such were Burgesses of L. and grants to the Burgesses before named to be quit of Toll c. that will take the benefit of it they ought to averre who is Burgess of L. And if the Plaintiffe be attainted by Act also and the Defendant will plead this so then his plea shall be double because he hath pleaded an attainder by the Common Law and also by the Statute But here it is not double because it is not a new attainder but a Confirmation And because he cannot plead the Confirmation without the thing that was Confirmed Also the Recitall and Confirmation by the Statute is not taken but pro ut And also the recitall being false shall be intended to be upon Information And therefore an averment lies against this recitall So a License to alien Lands holden of the King ut dicitur there he which hath the Lisence is not Estopped to say that it is holden of another then the King because the Tenure in Capite is not precisely affirmed but ut dicitur which taketh away all absolute affirmance 29. Ass 38. Also the Statute refers to an Attainder had before And so to a thing which is not inre● veritate for the cause aforesaid and therefore shall be void but if the things was before and wanteth force and effect then this shall be made good by the Statute and there the Act is good and hath power as to the thing 29. E. 3. 24. Grants Fitzh 100. The King reciting an Attainder by Parliament of one Mattravers by his Charter of Pardon reverseth the same and restores him and after this all is recited in another Parliament and Confirmed by the same Parliament and good for the Cause aforesaid So 38. H. 6.33 Parliament confirmes the first Letters Patents this enures according to the Effect and Purport of the first grant and shall not take away the Condition if any such be the King gives Land to J. S. the Parliament Confirmes it s a good grant And so when the Parliament Confirmes a thing which is defective it shall give power to it if it be Confirmed as here the Act shall be void to all purposes as 5. E. 4.40 and 41. If one Village hath Customes which is against the Law and Reason and no others and the Parliament Confirmes their Customes it is void because they had not Customes for things used meerly against the Law and Reason are not Customes notwithstanding such usage And if the branch of one Act recites another Act be it in the Commencement or Continuance it is void as 1. E. 6. c. 12 repeales all offences made Fellony after the Commencement of the reigne of H. 8. and by one branch in it this Statute excepts imb●sselling of goods by servants made Fellony in the seven and twentieth yeare of H. 8. commencing the 4. of February and continuing untill the 24. of Aprill whereas it finished the fourteenth of Aprill and so Statutes which misrecite things and are referred to them should be void and conclude no man And so here the Statute which recites that the Plaintiffe was attainted and confirmes it whereas indeed he was not attainted shall be void Coles Case IF one gives to another a mortall wound 13.

The immediate Fee and frank Tenement that the husband hath in his owne right shall not drown the terme which he hath in the right of his wife where she is sole Lessee nor the moitie of the terme where she is joint Lessee as here and the operation of the Law shall not do a thing contrary to equity and reason to the prejudice of another namely in Chattells Realls which are things of continuance because the husband by expresse act hath not given nor altered it as he may by making of a Feoffment of the land or new Leas c.

H. 6.13 A Fine is a Record although it be not ingrossed and shall be executed Fourthly How and in what degree this Lease passe at the beginning by the Fine The estate of N. not altered by the Fine of a stranger which had not any right or Estate in the Land but is Estopped for his life to say otherwise but that he receives fee simple by the Fine Leases by word by Deed Poll by Indenture are to be considered how they shall enure As if a Lease be made by words without Deed of Lands by one that hath see simple for one and twenty years to commence presently rendring a rent and after the same day maketh a new Lease by Paroll to another for the same terme or for a lessor terme the second Lease is void although that the first Lessee surrenders or forfeits because at the time of the first Lease he hath not but a Reversion and no interest in him to contract for the possession And he that will by contract make another possessor of the thing ought to be proprietor of the same himself As if one sells a Horse upon condition that the Vendee shall pay him forty shillings at Easter and after he sells the Horse to a stranger and after the first Vendee payes not the forty shillings at Easter and the Vendor reseiseth the Horse the second Vendee shall not have the Horse because the Vendor had him not at the time of the sale the Condition only inables him not to contract for the property and possession which he then had not but if the Lessee for one and twenty years be and the Lessor the same day grant the Reversion by Deed for twenty one years to commence presently it is good with Attournment and he shall have the Reversion during the first Lease and the Rent as incident thereunto because it is another thing then the possession So a Lease by word for years to commence after the first year is good because it is of another thing then the first Lessee had because the second Lessee is to have the possession after the first possession and interest expired A man leases for one and twenty years in possession and presently maks a Lease of it for one and thirty years by word this is good for the last ten years and Executory for it for a Lease for years is Executory and severall for every yeare and day and is as to execution as severall contracts And therefore such contract may be good in part and void in part So if he Leases for 21. years to commence 10. years after and he maketh a Lease for 31. years to commence presently it is good for the first 10. years and void for the last 21. years for that he had contracted before and was certain although that the first Lease were forfeited or surrendred otherwise it is if the first Lease had bin incertain as a Lease for life there the second Lease had bin good after the Tenants life not during his life although he surrendred or forfeited unlesse it had bin by Fine or Indenture because Estoppels if the second Lease for the same years be by Deed Poll there the reversion with the rent pass by Attornment by the demise of the land by the name of Land if the possession cannot as a Reversion upon an Estate for life passeth by bargaine and sale of the land by Deed inrolled and the Grantee may use his Deed as he pleaseth and therefore may use it as a Grant of a Reversion with attornment otherwise it is if it be by word because the Reversion for years cannot be granted by word But if Lessee for years will use a Leas Poll as a present Leas where he hath not attornment the Leas is void although the first surrendred or forfeited as it is if it were by word because a contract by Deed Poll passeth not that which another then injoyes But if the second Lease were by Fine or Indenture and the first surrendred or forfeited it is good for if one leases land to me which he hath not at the time by Fine or Indenture and after purchase it or it desends to him I may enter and occupy by Estoppell and I shall be compelled by Estoppell to pay the Rent because every one is concluded to say but that the land passeth in possession for fourty five yeares by Estoppell and shall be good in estate to have the other yeares because they are not incurred in the life time of the Tenants for life for if the Lease for fourtie five yeares had been by word and the particular Tenant for life had died the Lessee should have it against the Lessor If the estate given by the Fine is defeated the Fine shall be void although the Proclamations passe after for the Fine is the Principall and the Proclamations but accessary to the Fine as Tenants in taile disseised levies a Fine to the disseisor Sur conusans de droit or sur release and dies there the issue if he enters before all the Proclamations are passed is remitted and is not harred for that 32.

and therefore shall not extend to the death of the daughter which is another distinct Act Otherwise it is if one had followed the other in one person As if I command you to rob J. S. and he resists and you kill him So if I command you to beat him and he dies of the battery So if I command you to burn the House of J. S. and you doe it and by the fire the House of J. D. is burnt I am accessary to both because the commandement reacheth to all the sequell thereof and is the cause of it and therefore I shall be partaker of what ensues this ill Act commanded by me otherwise it is if I command you to robb J S. as he is going to Sturbridge Faire and you rob his House in Cheapside for this is another manner of Fellony and there are severall Acts As if I command you to steale a white Horse and you steale a bay Horse or an Oxe or burne the House of J. whereas I commanded you to burne the House of B. there I am not accessary for that my assent may not be lyable to it because it is a thing distinct and contrary to my commandement directly But if I command you to kill J. and you kill him by another meane or Instrument another day or place then I command there I am accessary because the death is the principall matter and the others onely the manner and forme and the variance in the manner and forme of his commandement discharges not me to be accessary But if I countermand this before you kill I am not accessary for the minde of the accessary ought to continue to doe evill at the time of the act done If one be pardoned of Murder and the wife of the dead sue an appeale and a stranger receives him and gives him Meate and Drinke knowing of the Murder and Pardon he is accessary to the Fellony against the Wife although that he is not against the King because this Fellony is discharged against the King but remaines as to the Wife per Catlin But Popham held otherwise because that at the time of the receipt there is not any offence continuing against the Crowne and Dignity of the King for that he was pardoned before and one cannot be accessary without offence to the Crowne But Plowden held that if the Goaler suffer him to escape after the Pardon this is Fellony in him because he suffers a Fellon to escape for that he was in for Fellony for he was detained in Prison at the suite of the Wife appellant Nicholls against Nicholls THE Lord Lovell M. 17. 18. El. in trespas 18. E. 4. Lease for life to Thomas Wtright and moreover grants that if he dyes without issue that then the Lessee shall have fee And the Lord was attainted of high Treason by Parliament 1. H. 7. and all his Land forfeit to the King saving to every stranger such right title and interest which they had as if the Statute had not been ever made and after the Lord dyed without issue and in 11. El. an Office was found The question was whether the Lessee should have the Fee by the Condition and the saving And adjudged that he should have the Fee 1. That all the Fee Simple passeth not out of the Lord Lovell but continues alwayes in him untill the Condition which is precedent to the estate be performed 14. H. 8.17 Wheelers Case 10. Assi 15.6 R. 2. Plessingtons Case and 12. R. 2. That Action shall be brought against Lessee for years upon condition to have Fee and the Lessor together a Condition precedent shall have relation to the Livery for to avoid incumbrances for vesting the Fee which was at the time of the performance Husband and Wife may not take by Moities yet they shall vouch upon a Feoffment made to them before the Coverture because that although they were sole when the Warrant was made yet were Covert when the Recovery was So a Reversion is granted when they are sole and when they have intermarried the tenant attornes to them they have not distinct Moities because then the Reversion settles in them not to grant when sole and so time in which the thing vests is specially to be considered 2. That the estate in Fee appointed by the Condition nor Reversion because it commenceth at a day to come nor a Remainder because in its vesting it drowns the particular Estate but shall enure by way of inlargement of his Estate 3. That the Freehold in Deede or in Law but a right or Title onely is not vested by the word Forfeiture in this Statute without an Office to finde the certainty of the Land which the party attainted had as in 4. E. 4.22 the Lord Hungerfords Case for then the Statute of 33. H. 8. cap. 20. which now giveth Actuall possession to the King for Treason without Office should be made in vaine and goe to attainders hapning after this Statute of 33. not to those before as our Case is And if one be attainted of Treason the Freehold and Fee remaineth in him and shall not be in the King untill Office found by the course of the common Law for if he hath capacitie to take by new purchase so he shall retain the antient and shall be Tenant to the Precipe out when he dieth the Land cannot descend to his Heire because the blood is corrupted but it shall Escheat to the Lord if it be holden of a common person or to the King in the nature of a common Escheat if it be holden of him and not as an Escheat by Treason untill Office by Barham and Dier To the first Objection it was said That the Condition performed which is a reall agreement shall divest the state in Fee out of any stranger which hath the Reversion without privity as by grant Escheat c. For that the Land is charged with this agreement reall in whose hands soever it cometh and therefore the Fee shall vest in the Lessee by the performance of the Condition discharged of all incumbrances made after the Condition and the previty there is destroyed by the Act of the Lessor So 6. R. 2. Plessingtons Case where a man leases for yeares upon Condition performed to have Fee after levies a Fine the Lessee performes the Condition he shall have Fee of the Conusee but by Belknap there he shall have the moneys which the Lessee by his Condition ought to pay otherwise it is if the privity be destroyed by the Act of the Lessee as where the Lessee grants his Estate there the Fee shall not vest in him nor his assignee 4. fol. 483. 5. For answer to the second Objection it was said that the Condition shall be saved by the words which shall extend to all Conditions Rents Profits or other things out of or in Land and the saving of the right of him which hath not offended shall be taken beneficiall By some right is where a thing is taken

away from another by wrong Title is where a man hath cause to have the thing which another hath and hath not Action Condition is a possibilitie to have Title Action is a suite given by the Law Interest is part of the Estate of the Land as a Lease for yeares or execution by Statute fol. 484. 6. The answer to the third Objection The Lessee ought not to shew in pleading that he is not excepted in the Statute for that he gains not any new thing but will retain the old and also because the Statute is to his disadvantage but that he shall take benefit of a Statute shewing it 7. For answer to the fourth Objection it was said that admitting that the Fee here shall be forfeited to the King without Office yet the Condition shall draw it out of him without Petition or Monstrans de droit by some but Quere thereof for otherwise it shall not vest at the time of the death of the Lord Lovell it shall not vest at all for it is appointed to him as if the Lessee here had entered into Religion and the Lessor without being attainted had died without issue after the Lessee is deraigned he shall not have the Fee because it may not vest in him at the time of the Condition performed So if he was disseised at that time And so here for to avoid the inconveniency by the operation of the Law or former agreement a thing shall be devested out of tho King at the instant of the Condition performed without any such circumstance As Tenant in Taile discontinues the Discontinuee infeoffs the King by Deed inrolled the King Leases to the Tenant in Taile for life with the Remainder to his Issue for life the Lessee dies the Issue is remitted by the remainder falling to him and the Fee devests out of the King without any circumstance And so a Remitter shall defeat the Estate of the King and an Office of the King shall defeat the Remitter fol. 488. as 3. E. 4.25 in the Earle of Northumberlands Case by relation or if the Disseisee enters after the Attainder of his Disseisor Possession of the King by Office shall not be removed without Petition but if he enter before his Disseisor be attainted he shall be removed without Petition because the Title of the King there is more antient and the Office shall have relation to the Attainder onely for the profits although it relate to the time of the Treason for to avoid mean Acts and Incumbrances So Tenant in Capite maketh a Lease for life rendring Rent with clause of Re-entry for not payment and dies his Heire within age enters for the Rent arere An Office is found the entry of the Heire for the Condition broken is avoyded by Lovelace for the possession of the Heire by force of which he entered is utterly defeated by Relation which intitles the King to the Grant And so the entry of the Heire for a thing not due to him shall be adjudged Tortius by relation So if Trespasse 19. E. 4.2 where for things coming of the Land as Grasse c. Office avoids the punishment against those which doe the wrongs and takes it away by relation of the Office which Intitles the King because of the Escheat before the Trespasse an Action once good But for the entry into the Land or breaking his Fences which ariseth not from the Revenue of the Land the Action is not gone by the Office If an Office virtute Commissionis be pleaded he ought to shew the authority given by it and the execution thereof accordingly because persons appointed by Commission have not any other then what is appointed to them by the Commission otherwise it is of an Inquisition taken virtute Officii before the Escheator Sheriffe Steward of a Leete c. for that their authority appeareth to the Court judicially because it is known by the Law for that they are Officers of the Common Law A Remainder ought to vest when it is appointed otherwise it shall never vest The Kings Pardon shall not excuse any man for the repairing of a Bridge which ought to do it because it shall not take away the Interest that the Subjects take therein So a man pledgeth a Jewell for ten pound and after is attainted the King shall have it without paying of the ten pound So 13. R. 2. the Earle of Kent had return of certain Cattell in Replegiari and the Proprietor of them is attainted the Earle shall keep them against the King untill he be satisfied of the thing because the Prerogative will not give any prejudice to another Ludford against Gretton A Warrant to make Letters Patents M. 18. 19. El. in the Kings Bench Trespas was directed by H. 8. to the Chancellor which entered not the day of the Receit of the Watrant in the Record according to the Purview of the Statute of 18. H. 6. cap. 1. And yet the Letters Patents made thereupon were adjudged good For that the Purviewe of the Statute maketh Letters Patents void onely for the variance between the date of the Patent and the day of the entery of the Warrant And the Court held three manner of Patents good upon the Statute 1. If no Warrant be made at all it is good by the Common Law and not void by the Statute because there is not any variance 2. If there be a Warrant and the day of the delivery of the Warrant be not entered as in the Principall Case 3. If the day of the delivery of the Warrant be entered and the Patent dated after the day of the delivery for this variance is out of the mischief of the Purview which was in antedating of Patents before the delivery of the Warrant and not after dating and yet is within the words but out of the intent of the Act. Records shall have Relation to their date and cannot be averred contrary to the date not to vary from it because it tends to the discredit of an Officer of Record Deeds relates to the Livery and date in Deeds concludes not any to aver the contrary Grendon against the Bishop of Lincolne HENRY the eighth being seised of an Advowson in the right of his Crown P. 19.

First The devise to the Wife for her life is not an absolute devise of the intire terme but conditionally or upon limitation if she lives so long for if she dies her Interest is determined by the limitation and devise to him for his life by implication because the residue of the terme is devised to the Son after the death of the Wife in which is implied that the Wife shall have it for her life and also determinable by the limitation as above said and the devise to the Son shall be expounded to precede the devise of the Wife and so both shall stand fol. 522.523 624. Secondly The devise to the Wife and Son is of one same thing setlicet Of the Land it selfe and the Wife shall have the Collaterall occupation onely of the Land by the devise but the very Interest and terme of the Land she shall have conditionally and so two parties of one terme the one to the Wife and the other to the Son and then the execution of the devise in the Wife shall be execution of the Legacie to the Son Thirdly The Alienation of the Wife hath not devested the interest of the Son which is accrued to him by the Condition or limitation nor extinct the Condition or limitation which shall transferr the interest to him Executor being legatory of a terme by the devise of the Testator enters generally he is possessed as Executor because it is his first title untill he maketh election to agree to the devise A Termor grants his terme to one for life the Grantee shall have the intire terme by Popham because for life which is a greater time then for yeares But Quere if he dies if the Grant be determined As Lessee for yeares grants a rent to one for his life he shall have the rent during all the yeares if he shall so long live which time of life includes all the years which is a lessor terme yet if he dies the rent shall be determined by Plowden fol. 525. and the Grantee hath but a Chattell in the rent for he may not have freehold out of a Chattell Lessee for yeares grants all his terme which shall be arreare after his death this is voide for the uncertainty for by the reservation of the terme for his life he hath reserved all the terme and therefore the Grant which is but one sentence without any Habendum is voide 7. E. 6. by devise good otherwise if he had granted his terme habendum after his death there the Grant is good and passeth the terme presently and the habendum is void for the Repugnancy But fol. 156. it is void 9. H. 58. A man maketh a Lease for ten years after maketh another Lease for six to commence the same day the second is void and he shall not maintaine an action of debt against his Lessee although the Lessee for ten yeares upon render because during the ten yeares he may not contract with another for a Lease to take effect during this time Implication in a devise giveth an estate for life to the Wife 13. H. 7.17 profit to be taken out of the Land is a distinct thing from the interest of the estate Execution of an occupation of a thing not of property it selfe as in a devise of a Book to use as 37.

Court of a Steward is a disseisen of his Fee For the doing of matter of labour is a claime of the Commodity for his paines So an Executor which hath a Terme devised to him upon Condition that he pay 10 l. to a Stranger payes the 10 l. this is consent and execution of the Legacy So the educating of the Children here determines her Election that she taketh the Terme as a Legacy and her grant after reproves it not but argues her inconstancy If a Termer be indebted to one in a hundred pounds and maketh his Will and by it devise his Terme to his Sonne and leaves assets to pay the debt the Executor cannot sell the Terme to pay the debt but shall pay it with the assets that he hath in his hands Adjudged because he ought to perform all the Will scilicet Debts and Legacies if there are assets If the Executor disagree in Deed to a Legacy certain this shall be presently in the second Devisee of this bequest of a thing incertain to the Executor as of 20 l. and the Testator oweth 40 l. and dies having Plate Oxen Horses of every of them to the value of 20 l. this is not executed untill 40 l. paid for he may Alien which of them he will and the others have no remedy if there be no more assetts and may pay and carve to himself before any other as it is in 12. H. 4.21 because he is neerest to himself And therefore the Execution of the Terme devised here shall not be hindered by the not payment of the Legacies to others nor Lease given to his Executor ought to be sold and then in Legacies it is reason that Executor shall have preferment A gift to his Executor of all his goods for performance of his Will is no devise and a void gift because the Law giveth them without these words As if a Man devise in Fee his Land to his Son and Heire it is voyd because he shall have it without the devise by discent So for to prescribe for to distrain for Rent service voyd because he may distrain without prescription A devise of Fee tayle to his Heire is good because it is another Estate then he should have by discent So here the Estate devised to the Wife which is but percell of the Estate scilicet during the Nonage of the Heire is good because severed from that which the Law would have given to him and the Clause for educating his Children is not a thing Testamentory nor Legecy to the Children but is an intent annexed to the devise made to the Wife by which she by her entry hath the Estate devised to her as Legatory And the Execution to the Wife is also to the Son because a devise although the Estates are severall and is of the same effect as if her Estate had bin devised to another with the Remainder to her Son and agreement or assent shall not be apportioned as attornment by Tenant for life to the Grantee of the Reversion for life extends to him in Remainder So notice given by Tenant for life to the Lord shall serve to him in Remainder in Fee to compell the Lord to avow upon him after the death of the Tenant for life So Rent accepted by an Infant at full age of his Lessee for yeares hath made good the Remiander over An Intruder cannot gain such Possession against the King upon which he may maintain an Action of Trespasse because the King may punish him 19. E. 4.2 and be shall not be doubly punished but against the Lessee of the King one may gain such Possession that he may punish a Stranger trespassor yet he shall not gain no Estate from the Crowne for the Freehold which irremoveablely rests in the Crowne And the King shall not alleadge Intrusion with a continuando but divers dayes vicibus because he gaineth not any Possession by wrong scilicet by the Intiusion against the King Walsinghams Case H. 15.

El. between Conway and Moulton that tenant in tayl shall not forfeit any thing First That the Feoffment of tenant in tayl had not discontinued nor devested the estate of fee in Reversion out of the King because it is but a matter in Deed which is tortious otherwise it is of a rightfull matter of Record as a Recovery upon a good title or rightfull matter in Deed as a Remitter or Condition performed As Alienee of tenant in tayle of the gist of a common person infeoffs the King by Deed inrolled which regives to the first tenant in tayle which dyes the issue euters it is a Remitter and therefore the Reversion in fee is devested out of the King and restored to the first doner because a former right matter in Deed and in Law concurr together So Lessee for life to have fee if he doth such an act after the Lessor grants by Deed inrolled the Reversion to the King the Lessee for life performes the Condition which is older then the title of the King this older title matter in Deed and operation in Law thereupon shall take the Reversion out of the King without other Suit or Circumstance because bound with the Condition and the fee simple ought to vest in him at the same instant that he performes the Condition or never But no tortious act as Disseisen Intrusion c. may take the Reversion out of the King Secondly That by the Feoffment he hath not given the fee determinable because he had it not nor an estate for life of the Feoffee but onely an estate for his owne life and so the Reversion in tayle continues in him which shall be forfeit by the Attainder and by consequence the estate of the Feoffee determines by the death of the Feoffor but the Feoffee hath an estate for the life of the Feoffor discendable and his heire shall be a speciall occupant of this estate in base fee simple Thirdly That the King shall have the estate tayle in point of Reverter for that he had the pure fee before and two fees of one thing cannot be together in one person otherwise in severall persons and then the King shall have the Land discharged of the estate tayle and by consequence of all estates charges and incumbrances derived out of it as Leases warranted by the Statute and then the laving in the Statute for a thing before determined is void as of a Lease voidable made by such tenant in tayle which the issue hath made good by the acceptance of the rent and after of the estate tayle Escheated for Treason or is determined for default of issue So that the King hath in point of Reverter there the Release shall be void and he hath nothing by the saving of the Statute Adjudged in Austins Case otherwise it is when the King hath it in point of forfeiture as if the Reversion be to a stranger fol. 559. b.
