Note that it must be intended that the Heir had not the land but that the land was sold before by the Feoffee to a stranger for if the Heir had the Land he is liable to the trust as well as the Feoffee 27 If I do lend money to I.

Bar. 100. 28 It was holden in the Chancery that if any Feoffee upon trust do infeoff any other which knoweth of the trust I may have a sub poena against them both but if a stranger knowing the trust had done a Tre●passe upon any Feoffee I might compell my Feoffee by sub poena to sue him and to recover Damages I shall have no sub poena against the Trespassor but onely against my Feoffer because he might lawfully procure his own discharge but the Reporter thinketh that the Trespassor

But note that Brook abridgeth the case that Prisot the chief Justice was of the contrary opinion which is not to be so collected by the book but by implication yet may it seem that no writ of error doth lie but a petition to the Parlament in the nature of a writ of error but Prisot said that Judgements in the Chancery upon scire facias to repeal Parents and pleas or persons priviledged are reversable by Parlament because they are Judgements but the decrees are not 2. Cholmly Serjeant said if a decree be made in the Chancery that the Chancellor hath not power to reverse that decree in the same Court but it must be redressed in the Parlament for Judgement given in the Kings Bench Common-place or Exchequer are not reversable in the same Court but in a higher Court But Knightley Serjeant said that a decree was but an Order taken by the Court for the time the which upon good causes shewed may be redressed in the same Court hut Devistall Serjeant said that if it might be so there would be an incessant confusion of all causes wherefore the Chancellor cannot reverse an absolute Decree but he may reverse a Decree which is made with a quousque for an absolute decree is much like a definitive sentence given in the spiritual Court which cannot be redressed in the same Court but by application into a higher Court and the Kings Secretary interrupted him to speak any further of the authority of the Chancery In Cancell 27 H. 8. 6.

It seemeth that this was not properly a reversall of the petition but rather and is like to the case ensuing I the Lord Chancellor grant a patent of land and after make a patent to another of the same land the second patent is revocable in the Chancery by scire facias but not by writ of error for a Court may reform but not reverse their own Judgements 2 R 3. A statute Merchant was acknowledged in the Chancery the money payable Anno 16. and the party sued execution and his writ supposed the same to be payable Anno 14. and by this sute the Feoffee was put out of power and he sued a writ of error in the Kings Bench and it was awarded that he should be received to the sute 18 E. 3. 25. error p. 17. asss. p. 24.

If two men have a wood jointly and one of them felleth the wood and keepeth all the money to himself his f●llow hath ●o remedy by the Law for as when they took the wood joyntly they put each other in trust and were contented to occupy together so the La● suffereth them to order the profit● thereof according to the trust that each did put in other and yet if one took all the profits he is bound in conscience to restore the half to his fellow for as the Law giveth him right onely to half the land so it giveth him right onely in conscience to the half profits and yet it cannot be said that the law is against conscience for the Law willeth not that one shall take all the profits but leaveth it to their conscience Lib. Doct Stud. cap. 19. 3. In many cases conscience shall be ruled after the Law as the eldest son shall have his fathers land by conscience as he shall in law and so he shall in law and so in Burgh English the youngest son shall enjoy the land both in law and conscience and in Gravel-kinde all the sons and daughters shall inherit together and there can be no other reason gives why it should be so in conscience but because law or custome is so lib.
