as Servant to the Bishop of Durham Absque hoc that he was guilty at the Castle of York or any where else c.

Coble versus Allen. Norf. Trespasse COble brought an action of Trespasse against Allen for breaking his Close at Barningham and by the new Assignment divers parcels were assigned the Defendant as to part pleads that he was seised of an House and thirty acres of Land in Colby and prescribe to have a way over them to his Common in Barningham Prescription for a Way and no place to which c. Issue joyned upon the Prescription and for the other parcels prescribe that he and all those whose Estate he hath in the said house in Colby used to have for themselves and their Families one way for Pack-horses over the said other parcels of Land in Barningham unto the Kings high way leading to the City of Norwich And Issue was joyned upon these two Prescriptions and found for the Plaintiff But it was moved in Arrest of Iudgment that the Venue was from Barningham and Colby and that in the Plea there is not mention of any place where the Common lies and therefore there is not any tryall but it was adjudged that the tryall was good for though that the proper use of a way is to some end and that ought to be shewn yet if it be only that he had a way over the Closes of the new Assignment and no place or end therof is pleaded for what cause or to what other place and Issue is taken upon the Prescription and found the Prescription is good And another reason was there by Implication it is indifferent whether the way lies in B. or in another Town and by intendment rather it may be taken to lye in B. and then if by one intendment the tryall may be good it shall so be intended But when it appears that the tryall shall be in three Towns and the Ven fac is but in two this is not aided for it is a Mis-triall and there must be a Venire facias de novo but in this case no new Venice can be awarded and then it is but a Jeofaile for not pleading in which Town the way lies and then it is aloâ—â— and also unto the Kings high way may be taken that this Kings high way is contigue adjacent to these Closes where the way is by Prescription And for these reasons and causes Iudgment given for the Plaintiff Harding versus Bodman RObert Harding Plaintiff against Bodman Defendant Case in an action upon the Case recites that wheras the Plaintiff brought an action upon the Case against one Lenning for calling of him c. the Defendant upon the tryall being produced for the Defendant as a Witnesse gave evidence upon his Oath to the Iury Action upon the Case against one foâ—giving evidence that the Plaintiff was a common lyar and so recorded in the Star Chamber by reason of which Evidence though the Iury found for the Plaintiff yet by reason hereof they gave but small Damages to the Plaintiff And upon not guilty pleaded it was found for the Plaintiff and upon motion in Arrest of Iudgment it was adjudged that this is a new invention and that no action lies for it First because that it is impossible to be known whether the Iury gave greater or lesse Damages for that or not Also by this means every man which is produced as a Witnesse by one way or other may be subject to an action upon the Case and also by any thing which appears to the Court the Evidence was true for it was not averred that Revera that the Plaintiff was not a common lyar that he was not recorded for a common lyar in the Star Chamber And for these reasons the Plaintiff Nil capiat per breve c.

Object It was objected that this Statute doth not extend but only to penall Statutes which then were in Esse Answ To which it was answered by the Court that this Statute was a perpetuall direction to all Informers 2. Object It was objected that if there be no Statute then there is no Informer 3. Object In this case Verdict is sound for the Informer and he may be presumed to be ignorant And there is no reason that he shall pay costs for default of his Councell 4.

Issue was joyned upon this point if the place was parcell of the Land out of which the Rent was granted and found by Verdict that it was And now moved by Attho in Arrest of Iudgment that it is not alledged that this Rent was arrear after the death of the Father as it ought to be and therfore it may be intended that this Rent was arrear in the life of the Father But the Court agreed and resolved that it was good after Verdict for now it is pleaded that it was arrear and not paid to him Ergo it was due to him and though it might have been more fully pleaded yet after Verdict it is sufficient Fletcher versus Harcot AN action upon the case was brought by Fletcher of Otely against Harcot and count Case that wheras the Defendant had arrested one Batersby by a Commission of rebellion Assumpsit in consideration that the plaintiff being an Hostler would keep a Prisoner to save him harmlesse issuing out of the Court of the Lord President and Councell of the North as he affirmed And wheras the Plaintiff keeps a common Inne in Otely and had kept it by the space of five years and had entertained men The Defendant requested the Plaintiff to keep the said Batersby in his Inne at Otely by the space of one night as a Prisoner and that he would keep and save him harmlesse and shew that he had kept him for that night as a Prisoner And Batersby afterward brought an action of false Imprisonment against him for the said keeping of him in his house and that he had expended and laid out in defence thereof ten pounds And that he had required him to save him harmlesse and he refused Non assumpsit found for the Plaintiff and moved by Harvey in Arrest of Iudgment that it is no sufficient consideration because it doth not appear that he had lawfully arrested the said Batersby for it is not affirmatively alledged but as he said Also it doth not appear that the recovery in the action of false Imprisonment was for the same cause but in that he had misinformed for it was in the Record Pro custodia praedicta ex causa praedicta And for the other matter the Lord Hobart seemed at first to doubt if it did not appear that it was a lawfull Arrest then there was no consideration But because the diversity when the consideration appears to be for doing of a thing which is unlawfull As if one at the request of I. S. promise to better I. D. and he promise to save him harmlesse this is a void Consideration But if one request I. S. to enter into the Mannor of Dale and drive out Cattle and that he will save him harmlesse if he doth so and after Trespasse be brought against him and recovery had he shall have his action So if a Sheriff pretending to have a Writ where he hath none arrest one and request an Inne-keeper to entertain him in his house or hire one to conduct the Prisoner to the Gaol and promise to keep him without Damage if an Action be brought and recovery had therupon the party shall have an action of the case against the Sheriff upon this promise for he which doth a thing which may be lawfull and the illegallity therof appear not to him he which imploys the party and assume to save him harmlesse shall be charged And Iudgment was entred for the Plaintiff Mich. 20 Jac.

Rot. 3014. 21 Jac. Jennings versus Pitman RIchard Jennings brought an action of Covenant against George Pitman upon an Indenture of an Apprentiship Covenant of an Apprentiship by which the Defendant had put himself to be an Apprentice to the Plaintiff in Ipswich to the Trade of a Linnen Draper and there were divers clauses in the Indenture according to the usuall form and assigne for breach the wasting of severall summe of money The Defendant pleaded the Statute of 5 Eliz. by which it is enacted That it is not lawfull for any one inhabiting in any City or Towne Corporate using the Trade of a Merchant over the Sea Mercer Pannary Goldsmith Iron-monger Imbroyderer or Clothier to take any Apprentice to be instructed in any of these Trades if it be not his Son or that the Father or Mother of such Apprentice had at the time of the taking of him Lands Tenements or Hereditaments of Inheritance or Freehold of forty shillings per annum to be certified by three Iustices of Peace under their hands and Seals where the Land lies to the Mayor Bayliffs or other head Officer of the City or Town Corporate and to be inrolled entred and recorded there and pleaded the clause of the Statute which makes Obligations and Covenants void which are taken against it And averred that Ipswich was a Town Corporate at the time of the making of the Statute The Plaintiff replyed that his Father had at that time when he was bound Lands and Tenements in great Bealing viz. ten acres to the Value of forty shillings per annum The Defendant by Rejoynder offer to joyn Issue that his Father had not Lands c. wherupon the Plaintiff demurred And the question was If this part of the Statute To be certified by the Justices c. be such an essentiall part therof that the Covenant be void without it It was agreed that it had not been put in use after the Statute but it seems that it is Essentiall and it ought to be so at the time when he is put to be an Apprentice but it may be enrolled afterwards for the Statute in another part provides a penalty for the not Inrolling Like to the Case upon the Statute of 18 Eliz. That they which claim any Estate of them which were Attainted in the Rebellion they brought their Conveyances to the Exchequer to be inrolled within one year if they bring and deliver these Conveyances though they be not inrolled yet they have performed as much as was in them And if the Certificate be not at the time when the party is put to be an Apprentice the Statute was to no purpose If this Bar be good then the Replication is a departure and the Rejoynder also and the Bar being good Iudgment shall be given against the Plaintiff but if the Bar be not good then for the Plaintiff for the Count contains matter certain But the Court moved whether this Covenant lay against an Insant for although it is by the Statute provided that he shall be bound to serve as a man of full age yet that makes not the Covenants good and it is like to a Custom which shall be taken strictly Trin 20 Jac. This Case between Jennings and Pitman was moved this Term And the Lord Hobart was of opinion that this Statute being that it appears that he was within age scil sixteen years will not bind him to any Covenants which are not implyed in the Indenture of serving For the doubt was whether an Infant was an Apprentice out of London though that he put himself to serve And the only matter which binds him in this Statute is that he shall be bound to serve when he is bound by Indenture being within age as well as if he were of full age and if the Covenant be only a Covenant to serve no Covenant lies for Imbeziling of Goods And if the Covenant be to serve him faithfully and diligently that shall not bind him upon this Covenant And I was of the same opinion for it is only made good as to the serving and there are many Covenants and Clauses besides in this Indenture which bind him not As not to play at unlawfull Games c. And a Custom that an Infant at such an age may sell his Land shall be taken strictly viz. that he cannot give it c. But my Brother Winch was of opinion that it was a thing incident and a quasi Consequent viz. That if he shall be bound to serve by consequence he shall be bound to serve faithfully and truly He resembled it to the case of a Fine levied by an Infant and not reversed during his â—onage that shall bind him and by consequence the Indenture which leads the uses of the Fine and when the Law enables to any thing that which is incident and without which the other thing cannot be is implyed Trin. 19 Jac.

Baker versus Johnson A Iury was at the Bar in an Ejectione firmae brought by Henry Baker against Bartholomew Johnson upon a Lease made by James Baker which was seised of two Marshes among others called Knightswick and Southwick In a recovery if the Town be omitted the Land do nor pass which lye in an Island called Camby in the Parish there called North-Benfleet And he being Tenant in tail and intending to dock it and to make himself seised in Fee by Indenture the 10. of Eliz. Covenanted to suffer a recovery of these two Marshes by name and of many other Lands and that it should be to the use of himself in Fee and the recovery was had and therin South-Benfleet and many other Parishes named and Camby but the Parish of North-Benfleet was omitted And if the Lands in North-Benfleet passed or no was the Question And it was strongly argued by Crew and Henden to have it found specially it being in a Common Recovery which is but a Common Conveyance But all the Court agreed that the Town and Parish being omitted although that Camby was a place known but it appeared that that extends in and to ten Towns yet being in a Town that the Recovery extends not therto no more then if one had a Mannor in the Town of Dale which Mannor is called Bradford and within the said Mannor is a place known which is called Braisty Wood and he omit the Mannor and the Town and say the hundred acres of Land in Braisty Wood that is not good And the Court agreed that a Common Recovery is good in a Town Parish or Hamlet and peradventure in a place known out of the Town Parish or Hamlet as in the Forrest of Inglewood in Insula de Thamete c. But if it should be admitted that a Common Recovery shall be good in a place known in a Town or Hamlet that shall be absurd for there is no Town in which there are not twenty places known and it had been adjudged that a Venire facias de viceneto of a place known in a Town without making the Visne of the Town is not good Mich. 5 Car.
