TO THE Practitioners and Students OF THE Common LAW OF ENGLAND Especially such as would be throughly Acquainted with Conveyancing WIthout the least Flattery to the Memory of our deceased Author I may boldly say His indefatigable Labours need not be usher'd into the World with studied Eulogyes And I doubt not but you will concur with me in the same Opinion when you have perus'd this Book and confess his own Labours to be his greatest Commendation Touching the Subject matter it contains the several Forms of Settlements of Estates to Uses with power for Cestuy que use for Life and in Tayl to make Joyntures Leases and Grants of Rents Likewise the Forms of Limitation of Uses for Years for payment of Debts discharge of Sureties and raising of Portions for Younger Children It also treats of Limitation of Uses in Fee for the Lands to be sold to pay Debts c.

Some Observations taken out of our late Reports and Books touching the Law of Conveyances in general 1. A Bargains and sells to B. a Mannor Fine joyned with other assurances extinguisheth not a condition c. and Covenants to suffer a Recovery and levie a Fine for better assurance of the Mannor and that all Estates assurances and conveyances after to be made of the said Mannor should be to the uses in the said Indenture c. And in the said Indenture there is a Proviso that B. the Bargainee shall do such an Act c. And it was resolved that this Proviso amounts to a condition in Law to defeat the whole Estate and although A. and B. after levied a Fine to a third Person in reference to the Covenant aforesaid yet it was resolved that the Fine did not extinguish the said condition for it was as an assurance and was to be guided by the Indenture Cook lib. 2. 72 73. Lord Cromwels case vide Dyer 157. pag. 28 29 30. 2. Also it was resolved in the said Cromwells case Several conveyances c. do make but one assurance in Law fo 75. a. that the said bargain and sale and Recoverie and Fine although made suffered and levied at several times do make but one assurance in Law of the Mannor according to the same original bargain and contract and every of them tend to perfect the said Bargain and Sale and none of them to destroy any part of it or to subvert the true intent of the Parties As if a man makes a Lease for life of Lands in several Counties and first makes livery in one County and divers daies after maketh livery in another County yet the Rent reserved upon the Lease shall issue out of the Lands in both Counties although the livery by which the estate passed was made at several times And therefore it might be objected that presently upon the first livery the Rent should issue out of it but the Law shall not judge by parcels in subverting of the intent and agreement of the Parties but after all the Acts are done in performance of the original contract and agreement of the Parties the Law shall adjudge upon all as executed at the same time So if one make a deed of Feoffment with warranty and deliver the deed to the Feoffee and after at another time maketh livery secundum formam Charta yet the warranty is good although when the deed was delivered no estate passed to which the warranty might be annexed yet notwithstanding praxis juris p●●storum is to be observed Et qui rationem in omnibus quarunt ra●ionem subvertunt Cook l. 2. 75. a.

contained therein doth grant and render back to the Cognizor the lands c. or some part thereof and many times limitting thereby Remainders to persons that are Strangers and not named in the writ of Covenant This fine is partly executed partly executory and hath Proclamations and is quoad partem priorem absolutely of the same Nature with a Fine sur Cognizance de droit come ceo c. but as to the second part containing a Grant and render as aforesaid it is taken in law to be rather a private Conveyance or Charter then to have the force of a Fine which as we have before expressed is declared to be a Feoffment upon Record With this agrees the Lord Cooks exposition in 5. Rep. fo 38. where speaking of a Fine with Render he hath these words The Cognizance of a Fine and a Grant and render therein shall be expounded and taken as a Charter or other Conveyance between party and party and not as a Writ or Iudgment upon Record A Fine sur Cognizance de droit tantum ove Fine sur done grant what grant which is also called a Fine sur done grant is levyed without Proclamations executory and much of the Nature of a Fine sur Concessit and is used commonly by Tenant for life to make a surrender of the Lands contained in it to him or them that have the Reversion or Remainder thereof and so you will find it used Chap. 10. Sect. 1. and 5. of this Treatise And sometimes it is expressed by such Fine that the particular Estate is in another and that the Cognizor willeth that the other shall have the Reversion or that the land shall remain to the other after the particular Estate spent West Symb. part 2. Dyer 216. Plowd 265. Coke 3. 86. and 7. 12. Crooke 1. last published fo 693. A Fine sur Concessit is where the Cognizor is Fine sur Concessit what seised of the Lands contained therein and the Cognizee hath no Freehold therein but it passeth by the Fine it is without proclamations and executory for the Cognizee or Cognizees therein must enter and have a writ of habere facias seisinam according to their several cases for the obtaining of the possession if the parties at the time of levying such Fine sur Concessit be not in possession of the thing granted but if they be in possession at such time there needs not any such Writ or any Execution of the said Fine to put them into possession for then the Fine will enure by way of Extinguishment of Right and doth not alter the Estate or right of the Cognizee however perchance it may better it CAP. III. Of the parts of a Fine THe parts of a Fine are five viz. The writ of Covenant 2. The Composition or the Kings licence to alienate 3. The Concord 4. The Note of the Fine 5. The foot of the Fine And if it be a Fine sur Cognizance de droit come ceo c. it is requisite that a sixth be added viz. Proclamations as a necessary adjunct thereunto 1 The writ of Covenant is the original writ Writ of Covenant taken out by the Cognizee or Cognizees against the Cognizor or Cognizors to the Fine for without ●his a Fine cannot be levyed And a Fine may be levyed upon any writ of Right or other writ whereby Land is demanded or may be recovered 2 The Composition or Kings Licence to alienate Composition for which the 〈◊〉 hath a Fine or sum of mony which is called the Kings Silver and is paid in when the Land reposeth 3 The Concord or Agreement between the Concord parties that intend the levying of the Fine wherein is declared how and in what manner the things contained in the writ shall pass and as the writ of Covenant is the foundation so this is the substance of the Fine For if the Kings Fine be entered and indorsed upon the writ of Covenant by the Clerk of the Kings Silver although the Cognizor dye before the Fine comes to the Chirographer yet is the Fine good for the Note and foot of the Fine are but Abstracts taken out of this by the Chirographer 4 The Note of the Fine which is an Abstract Note of the Fine taken out of the writ of Covenant and Concord by the Chirographer before it be ingrossed and begins thus ss Inter A. B. quer C. D. deforcientem 5 The foot of the Fine includeth the whole Foot of the Fine Fine the parties to the same the thing granted the day year and place and before whom the Concord was made and this is called the foot because it is the last part of the Fine And when this is done the Fine is ingrossed of Record and the Indentures made by the Chirographer and delivered to the party to whom the Cognizance is made and then the Fine is said to be ingrossed The Proclamations made upon a Fine which although they be not the essential parts of a Fine yet as is said before are requisite to a Fine sur Cognizance de droit come ceo c. for they do make a Bar according to what doth pass CAP. IV. Who may be Cognizors and Cognizees in Fines and by what names they may give and take in a Fine SVch persons Male or Female or bodies sole or Who may be Cognizors in Fines Corporate that are capable of granting by deed may be Cognizors in Fines And so an Infant Feme covert an Ideot mad or Lunatick person one non sane memorie or that hath a Lethargy or a doting old person that wants discretion a man that is drunk or one born blind deaf and dumb a Bastard an out-lawed person or one Attainted of Treason or Felony or persons that are compelled thereto by threats and Menaces to lose their lives or members or to suffer Imprisonment and a Fine levyed by them may be good But the Iudges or Commissioners before whom Fines are to be levyed by such persons ought not to admit such unfit persons to acknowledge Fines as Madmen Lunaticks Ideots doting persons men that have the Lethargy or are drunk Infants Fe●e Coverts and such as are forced to it by threats or Imprisonment neither ought such as are born blind deaf and dumb persons attainted of Treason or Felony and such like to be received to levy Fines But if any of these be admitted Cognizor in a Fine and such Fine be thereupon levyed in due form of law The Fine in most cases will be good and unavoidable Coke 12. 124.
