alive_a that_o he_o may_v have_v set_v all_o right_a but_o as_o the_o matter_n now_o stand_v here_o it_o have_v render_v he_o very_o doubtful_a in_o the_o case_n i_o confess_v i_o do_v believe_v sir_n

my_o lord_n of_o bath_n it_o be_v thought_n sit_v to_o be_v conceal_v for_o some_o reason_n from_o the_o duchess_n but_o after_o all_o i_o know_v no_o such_o rule_n in_o equity_n i_o be_o sure_a

such_o thing_n the_o second_o matter_n to_o make_v out_o the_o surprise_n be_v some_o consideration_n take_v out_o of_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o deed_n itself_o several_a impropriety_n of_o

of_o the_o law-dialect_n it_o do_v likewise_o misrecite_v the_o will_n of_o 75_o that_o be_v particular_o as_o to_o the_o land_n give_v to_o the_o duchess_n that_o they_o be_v give_v for_o life_n

so_o make_v so_o attest_v so_o prove_v as_o this_o deed_n in_o question_n have_v be_v they_o be_v rather_o and_o indeed_o flaw_n and_o objection_n that_o go_v to_o the_o manner_n and_o form_n than_o

it_o be_v so_o as_o to_o the_o land_n call_v norton_n disney_n but_o there_o be_v other_o land_n not_o comprise_v in_o the_o settlement_n and_o all_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v new_o purchase_v be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o settle_v as_o he_o please_v but_o the_o great_a objection_n out_o of_o the_o deed_n be_v this_o that_o this_o deed_n do_v in_o several_a place_n declare_v itself_o to_o be_v

that_o in_o the_o draught_n be_v of_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n own_o write_v and_o that_o part_n of_o the_o estate_n be_v by_o the_o deed_n to_o come_v to_o the_o lord_n of_o bath_n upon_o failure_n of_o the_o duke_n issue_n male_a only_o so_o that_o his_o daughter_n be_v all_o whole_o debar_v to_o this_o i_o say_v what_o they_o object_n that_o there_o be_v rather_o a_o contradiction_n than_o a_o confirmation_n of_o the_o will_n be_v true_a i_o be_o not_o satisfy_v i_o assure_v you_o in_o that_o which_o the_o defendant_n say_v to_o it_o that_o the_o confirmation_n of_o the_o will_n be_v mention_v only_o as_o to_o prevent_v the_o descent_n it_o be_v first_o mention_v there_o but_o i_o think_v it_o go_v through_o and_o be_v repeat_v more_o than_o once_o but_o that_o which_o i_o will_v observe_v be_v this_o that_o this_o deed_n do_v confirm_v the_o will_n in_o the_o main_a and_o substantial_a part_n of_o it_o the_o settle_v the_o bulk_n of_o the_o estate_n upon_o my_o lord_n of_o

if_o it_o do_v not_o confirm_v every_o limitation_n yet_o it_o do_v agree_v in_o the_o substantial_a settlement_n of_o the_o estate_n it_o be_v further_o say_v that_o the_o only_a limitation_n which_o agree_v with_o the_o will_n be_v that_o which_o in_o the_o draught_n of_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n hand-writing_n where_o land_n be_v limit_v to_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n after_o failure_n of_o issue-male_n with_o exclusion_n of_o the_o daughter_n which_o the_o plaintiff_n say_v it_o can_v possible_o be_v imagine_v the_o duke_n ever_o intend_v to_o do_v but_o i_o must_v mention_v what_o answer_v the_o defendant_n give_v to_o it_o they_o say_v the_o duke_n have_v then_o 15000_o l._n a_o year_n and_o he_o make_v a_o intercession_n to_o the_o king_n to_o bestow_v the_o honour_n of_o albemarle_n upon_o the_o earl_n of_o bath_n and_o that_o it_o may_v not_o go_v alone_o he_o limit_n 3000l_n a_o year_n upon_o his_o fail_n of_o issue-male_n so_o that_o the_o honour_n shall_v come_v to_o the_o earl_n and_o there_o be_v enough_o leave_v for_o daughter_n now_o if_o their_o valuation_n of_o the_o duke_n estate_n be_v right_a which_o true_o i_o know_v not_o it_o be_v some_o answer_n why_o some_o part_n shall_v be_v give_v to_o the_o earl_n only_o after_o the_o failure_n of_o issue-male_n but_o then_o i_o will_v observe_v too_o the_o deed_n by_o this_o obligation_n do_v confirm_v the_o will_n of_o 75_o and_o that_o will_v also_o affirm_v the_o deed_n if_o the_o will_n of_o 75_o be_v once_o well_o as_o i_o see_v no_o colour_n to_o the_o contrary_a than_o i_o be_o sure_a all_o their_o objection_n from_o the_o duke_n be_v contrary_a intention_n be_v all_o answer_v that_o he_o never_o intend_v to_o give_v he_o his_o estate_n for_o if_o they_o admit_v that_o the_o will_n be_v once_o the_o true_a will_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o albemarle_n then_o there_o be_v once_o a_o apparent_a intention_n in_o the_o duke_n of_o albemarle_n to_o give_v the_o earl_n of_o bath_n the_o bulk_n of_o his_o estate_n if_o he_o die_v without_o issue_n now_o as_o to_o the_o variation_n in_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o deed_n from_o those_o in_o the_o will_n i_o think_v true_o it_o stand_v indifferent_a as_o to_o one_o side_n or_o other_o for_o here_o be_v the_o distance_n of_o six_o year_n between_o they_o and_o the_o duke_n may_v alter_v his_o mind_n it_o may_v be_v one_o way_n one_o time_n and_o another_o time_n another_o he_o may_v alter_v his_o mind_n as_o to_o his_o daughter_n he_o may_v after_o so_o many_o year_n despair_v of_o issue_n and_o so_o not_o mind_v the_o make_v any_o provision_n for_o they_o he_o may_v change_v his_o mind_n as_o to_o his_o other_o kindred_n and_o

to_o that_o other_o beside_o it_o do_v not_o appear_v as_o i_o remember_v for_o it_o be_v some_o time_n since_o this_o cause_n be_v hear_v that_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n do_v know_v to_o what_o purpose_n the_o duke_n do_v call_v for_o his_o will_n and_o that_o the_o deed_n and_o will_n be_v both_o in_o the_o custody_n of_o the_o duke_n for_o though_o at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o deed_n it_o be_v deliver_v to_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n yet_o that_o be_v only_o for_o the_o due_a execution_n as_o a_o deed_n for_o my_o lord_n in_o his_o answer_n say_v he_o know_v not_o where_o it_o be_v afterward_o till_o deliver_v to_o he_o by_o the_o duke_n with_o the_o will_n under_o one_o cover_v some_o short_a time_n before_o he_o go_v abroad_o and_o so_o there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o induce_v the_o belief_n that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o duke_n be_v own_o custody_n then_o as_o to_o the_o objection_n of_o secrecy_n it_o be_v keep_v secret_a all-along_a and_o no_o body_n can_v give_v any_o account_n of_o this_o deed._n take_v it_o for_o grant_v it_o be_v so_o shall_v a_o settlement_n in_o a_o family_n where_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n require_v secrecy_n because_o it_o be_v keep_v secret_a be_v set_v aside_o in_o equity_n it_o ought_v to_o be_v keep_v secret_a and_o that_o be_v no_o objection_n at_o all_o person_n do_v not_o usual_o intend_v that_o all_o the_o world_n shall_v know_v how_o their_o estate_n be_v settle_v but_o say_v you_o at_o least_o here_o be_v a_o general_a presumption_n take_v all_o together_o upon_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o whole_a case_n that_o there_o be_v some_o kind_n of_o management_n in_o conceal_v of_o this_o deed._n now_o in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n shall_v presumption_n be_v sufficient_a to_o found_v a_o decree_n upon_o if_o that_o shall_v avail_v in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n it_o be_v a_o easy_a matter_n according_a to_o the_o judge_n faith_n to_o presume_v a_o man_n out_o of_o his_o estate_n there_o be_v presumption_n of_o several_a sort_n some_o be_v violent_a and_o some_o probable_a a_o violent_a presumption_n that_o such_o a_o man_n have_v do_v such_o a_o fact_n must_v be_v when_o a_o fact_n be_v do_v and_o no_o other_o can_v be_v think_v of_o to_o have_v do_v it_o as_o if_o a_o man_n be_v kill_v in_o a_o room_n and_o another_o man_n come_v out_o of_o the_o room_n with_o a_o

fact_n that_o he_o kill_v he_o yet_o from_o this_o evidence_n there_o be_v a_o very_a strong_a proof_n but_o a_o probable_a presumption_n alone_o be_v no_o proof_n to_o rely_v upon_o where_o indeed_o there_o be_v some_o proof_n of_o witness_n positive_a and_o the_o presumption_n be_v probable_a that_o be_v add_v thereto_o it_o may_v be_v a_o good_a fortify_v evidence_n but_o it_o signify_v very_o little_a of_o itself_o for_o a_o foundation_n so_o that_o i_o think_v here_o be_v no_o proof_n or_o evidence_n that_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n do_v surprise_v the_o duke_n or_o that_o the_o duke_n be_v surprise_v in_o this_o matter_n or_o that_o there_o be_v any_o indirect_a mean_n use_v to_o conceal_v it_o from_o the_o duke_n and_o so_o i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o second_o head_n that_o i_o at_o first_o propose_v therefore_o three_o i_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o person_n that_o be_v concern_v in_o this_o cause_n that_o be_v those_o that_o claim_v by_o the_o deed_n of_o 81._o and_o those_o that_o claim_v by_o the_o will_n of_o 87._o those_o that_o claim_v by_o the_o deed_n of_o 81._o be_v relation_n of_o duke_n christopher_n without_o all_o question_n my_o lord_n of_o bath_n that_o be_v

main_a of_o the_o estate_n be_v indeed_o in_o the_o will_v call_v cousin_n but_o it_o be_v plain_a if_o at_o all_o he_o be_v not_o so_o near_o relate_v so_o that_o when_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o person_n that_o claim_v by_o contrary_a voluntary_a settlement_n there_o be_v even_o a_o equality_n of_o relation_n and_o no_o difference_n of_o consideration_n much_o more_o when_o there_o be_v a_o

as_o to_o the_o consideration_n i_o think_v have_v no_o ground_n in_o reason_n there_o be_v as_o much_o equity_n for_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o it_o be_v perfect_o at_o large_a and_o i_o take_v it_o to_o be_v a_o constant_a rule_n that_o where_o one_o party_n have_v more_o equity_n than_o the_o other_o the_o law_n must_v take_v place_n and_o that_o in_o this_o case_n be_v manifest_o for_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n by_o this_o verdict_n equity_n ought_v not_o to_o take_v it_o from_o he_o this_o principal_a be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o decree_n in_o that_o case_n of_o smith_n and_o

of_o the_o power_n this_o be_v hold_v good_a in_o equity_n and_o all_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n it_o shall_v because_o a_o man_n be_v oblige_v to_o provide_v for_o his_o young_a child_n and_o it_o be_v against_o all_o justice_n and_o reason_n to_o make_v such_o a_o settlement_n upon_o the_o elder_a son_n as_o to_o send_v all_o the_o other_o child_n a_o beg_v be_v under_o the_o same_o natural_a obligation_n to_o provide_v for_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o therefore_o because_o of_o that_o natural_a obligation_n equity_n have_v be_v indulgent_a to_o support_v such_o provision_n because_o the_o first_o settlement_n that_o disable_v he_o from_o it_o be_v wrongful_a and_o injurious_a and_o contrary_a to_o all_o equity_n and_o then_o in_o such_o case_n equity_n be_v very_o

and_o consequent_o must_v be_v good_a in_o equity_n another_o case_n cite_v be_v that_o of_o smith_n and_o ashton_n and_o that_o be_v thus_o one_o richard_n ashton_n convey_v his_o estate_n in_o

as_o to_o this_o case_n i_o will_v observe_v first_o this_o be_v not_o a_o case_n upon_o a_o power_n of_o revocation_n to_o divest_v a_o estate_n nor_o a_o performance_n of_o a_o condition_n but_o further_a here_o be_v instruction_n prepare_v and_o it_o go_v as_o far_o towards_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o power_n as_o can_v be_v till_o a_o impediment_n come_v in_o the_o way_n by_o the_o act_n of_o god_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o party_n now_o i_o agree_v where_o there_o be_v a_o impediment_n by_o the_o act_n of_o god_n or_o fraud_n or_o default_n of_o the_o party_n who_o claim_v by_o the_o deed_n equity_n may_v interpose_v but_o that_o do_v no_o way_n come_v up_o to_o the_o case_n in_o question_n then_o there_o be_v the_o case_n of_o dey_n and_o thwaites_n which_o be_v late_o in_o this_o court_n thwaites_n make_v a_o settlement_n to_o the_o use_n of_o himself_o for_o life_n and_o afterward_o to_o such_o child_n and_o child_n and_o for_o such_o estate_n and_o estate_n as_o he_o shall_v by_o any_o write_n under_o his_o hand_n and_o seal_n testify_v by_o two_o credible_a witness_n limit_n and_o appoint_v he_o afterward_o make_v a_o will_n and_o have_v but_o two_o witness_n to_o it_o so_o that_o they_o do_v not_o cite_v the_o case_n right_a that_o say_v there_o be_v not_o two_o witness_n but_o two_o witness_n be_v not_o enough_o by_o the_o statute_n to_o make_v it_o a_o good_a will_n and_o thereby_o he_o give_v a_o rent_n of_o 100_o l._n a_o year_n to_o such_o a_o child_n and_o dies_z now_o one_o great_a question_n be_v whether_o the_o power_n be_v to_o limit_v estate_n or_o estate_n he_o may_v limit_v a_o rent_n out_o of_o those_o land_n it_o be_v hold_v in_o equity_n he_o may_v and_o true_o i_o think_v that_o he_o may_v at_o law_n there_o be_v i_o confess_v a_o opinion_n against_o it_o in_o the_o case_n of_o brown_n and_o taylor_n where_o there_o be_v three_o judge_n against_o one_o but_o real_o i_o think_v it_o be_v good_a at_o law_n a_o second_o question_n be_v whether_o this_o be_v void_a as_o a_o will_n by_o the_o statute_n shall_v be_v yet_o a_o good_a declaration_n of_o the_o trust_n and_o a_o execution_n of_o the_o power_n and_o i_o think_v the_o court_n of_o equity_n do_v very_o well_o in_o decree_a it_o to_o be_v good_n for_o though_o it_o be_v not_o effectual_a in_o all_o point_n as_o it_o be_v intend_v as_o a_o will_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o write_v which_o have_v all_o the_o circumstance_n require_v by_o the_o power_n and_o therefore_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o question_v whether_o it_o be_v good_n the_o next_o case_n be_v the_o case_n of_o ward_n and_o booth_n and_o that_o stand_v thus_o sir_n thomas_n brereton_n make_v a_o settlement_n with_o a_o power_n of_o revocation_n by_o a_o write_n under_o hand_n

to_o be_v hear_v before_o my_o lord_n nottingham_n and_o adjudge_v no_o revocation_n it_o appear_v there_o be_v a_o continue_a intention_n not_o to_o revoke_v but_o i_o desire_v to_o read_v part_n of_o the_o ground_n that_o decrce_o go_v upon_o for_o that_o justify_v what_o i_o say_v in_o case_n where_o there_o be_v a_o disability_n or_o a_o impediment_n by_o fraud_n this_o court_n may_v

where_o the_o evidence_n be_v doubtful_a it_o ought_v to_o be_v prove_v and_o plain_o prove_v for_o fraud_n be_v a_o thing_n odious_a and_o never_o to_o be_v intend_v or_o presume_v but_o the_o

to_o that_o notion_n that_o where_o the_o counsel_n be_v surprise_v that_o be_v a_o surprise_n upon_o the_o client_n i_o take_v that_o to_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o a_o very_a great_a consequence_n and_o i_o fear_v it_o will_v shake_v most_o of_o the_o settlement_n of_o estate_n in_o england_n and_o for_o that_o i_o will_v mention_v the_o case_n of_o sir_n james_n herbert_n and_o the_o late_a

of_o it_o &_o because_o that_o in_o his_o grandfather_n will_n there_o be_v such_o a_o settlement_n as_o he_o like_v of_o he_o send_v he_o that_o swanton_n make_v a_o will_n and_o limit_n a_o estate_n to_o sir_n philip_n herbert_n the_o brother_n for_o life_n and_o the_o remainder_n to_o the_o heir_n of_o his_o body_n this_o will_n be_v bring_v by_o the_o counsel_n to_o the_o earl_n and_o read_v and_o execute_v and_o hold_v to_o be_v good_a yet_o this_o be_v a_o notorious_a surprise_n upon_o the_o counsel_n for_o nothing_o be_v plain_a than_o that_o the_o counsel_n have_v make_v a_o mistake_n or_o know_v not_o the_o law_n he_o do_v not_o at_o best_a consider_v that_o upon_o such_o a_o limitation_n the_o law_n use_v the_o whole_a estate_n tale_n in_o he_o and_o he_o may_v dispose_v of_o it_o it_o be_v plain_a he_o have_v not_o pursue_v the_o will_n of_o the_o grandfather_n but_o yet_o when_o this_o cause_n come_v to_o be_v hear_v before_o my_o lord_n north_n when_o the_o will_n appear_v to_o have_v be_v true_o execute_v the_o court_n declare_v it_o be_v a_o misfortune_n that_o they_o do_v not_o go_v to_o a_o better_a counsel_n and_o it_o be_v send_v to_o law_n to_o try_v
