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. With several forms of Revocation of Uses and limitingVses de novo and of Covenants with other Incidents to the like Conveyances Besides these there are other most useful Presidents relating to Merchants and Traders Affairs fit for all Maritime Cities Towns and places of Trade The whole Work is so Methodically digested by the Author that any Person who is not a meer stranger to the Law may make great use and advantage thereof and speedily and readily find any particular matter therein contained As to the Author I shall only say thus much in general of him viz. That H●spent a considerable time in the study of the Law at Grays-Inne and being unwearied in searching after all opportunities to improve his knowledge He at length was call'd to the Barr and gain'd in a little time the Vogue of being a profound and judicious Counsellor His Apprehension was alwaies quick his Judgment deliberate solid and not wavering of a clear discerning faculty his Memory sound and his Patience the truest index of a Wise man alwaies commanded his Passions in short He was a Person of exquisite natural and acquired Parts and that which much contributed to the latter was his great Moderation and Temperance whereby his study and business glided in their delighted Channels uninterrupted Being at length wearied with Business he retir'd into the Country where having finish'd this Elaborate Work he dyed Since whose death his Manuscript being left to the Guardianship of a Friend and committed into my hands in order to be made Publick for the further advantage of such as would be perfect in the setling of Estates I have hereunto added the Learning touching Fines and Recoveries hoping the Ingenious will be moderate in their Censures And if I have in this done any thing to your Advantage it will answer the pains of him that is Your Servant W.

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. Conveyances to be so construed that they may take effect 3. A Conveyance shall have such construction that it may take effect ut res magis valeat quàm pereat If Tenant for life and he in Remainder or Reversion joyn in a Feoffment by deed each one of them passeth his estate viz. the Lessee for life his estate by the livery and the Fee-simple moveth or passeth from him in Remainder or Reversion but if the Feoffment had been by Paroll then it should have been the Feoffment of him in Remainder or Reversion and a surrender of the Lessee for life for otherwise nothing should pass by Paroll Cook lib. 2. Fine works to corroborate a former estates and makes no discontinuance fol. 15. 4. Tenent in Tail by deed inrolled bargains and sells an house to another and his heirs and after the Tenant in Tail levies a Fine with Proclamations to the Bargainee of the same house Resolved 1. That by the Indenture of bargain and sale inrolled the Bargainee had an Estate descendible to his heirs but it was determinable by the death of the Tenant in Tail 2. Resolved that the Fine here levied to the Bargainee doth not make a Discontinuance of the Remainder in Tail nor doth any Estate of Free-hold pass by the Fine but only the Fine with the Proclamations doth corroborate the Estate of the Bargainee and the Stat. of 4 H. 7 chap. 24. and 32 H. 8. cap. 36. makes his Estate more perdurable being after the Fine determinable only upon the death of Tenant in Tail without issue but if the Fine had been levied before the bargain and sale inrolled it had been a discontinuance but in the case before it was not because it operated only upon the Estate which passed precedent Cook lib. 10. fol. 96. Edward Seymors case 5. Nota a diversity when a man hath two wayes Two waies to pass an Estate ho● taken to pass Lands and both of them by the Common-law and intends to pass them by one of those wayes yet ut res magi● valcat it shall pass by the other As if a man be seized of two Acres of Land in Fee and lettath one of them for Years and makes a Charter of Feoffment of both and maketh livery only of the Acre in possession in the name of both only the. Acre in possession passeth but if the lessee for years after doth attorne then both shall pass because he is by the common Law in the Per as to both but when a man may pass Lands either by the common Law or by raising of a use and setling of it by the Statute there in many cases it is otherwise As if the Father makes a Charter of Feoffment to the Son and a let●er of Attorney to make livery if no livery be made no use shall arise unto the Son because then he should be in by the Statute in another degree viz. in the Post and the intention of the Parties is much in the raising of uses Cook upon Lit. 49. a. 6. One sells unto another certain Lands by Acts done for further assurance referre to the Original agreement deed indented upon condition of Reentry upon non-payment of 20 l. and that all assurances shall then be to him and his heirs and Covenants to make other assurances and that they shall be to the use in the Indenture afterwards he makes a Feoffment to the same bargainee to the use of him and his heirs and afterwards levies a Fine to him which was to the uses in
the Indenture and it was judged that notwithstanding this absolute Feoffment and to an express use yet it being made upon no new agreement it shall be guided by the Covenant so that the bargainees Estate continues conditional Crook lib. 1. fol. 300. pag. 14. Clever vers Giles Acts done for further assurance upon covenants precedent conteined in the original agreement shall have such construction as may fortify and not destroy the first agreement As if ● man bargain and sell Lands rendring rent with condition of reentrie c. and covenants to make further assurances and after he levies a Fine or makes a Feoffment none of these are construed to extinguish the rent or condition but to fortify only the Estate of the purchaser according to the first agreement Moores Reports fol. 385. 7. It seems a conveyance of record shall be ●nv eyan●e of record and enpays how taken taken strictly and not by intendment as a conveyance in pais shall Therefore a Mannor in reputation which is not a Mannor in truth will not pass by the name of a Mannor in a Fine or common Recovery otherwise in a conveyance Crook part 1. 524. p. 53. yet a remainder may pass in a Fine by the name of a Reversion ibid. 594. p. 37. 8. Where an Indenture of bargain and sale is Several conveyances how the Party shall be in made and after a Fine is levied of the same land to the bargainee and after the deed is inrolled the bargainee is in by the Fine and not by the inrollment and where a Reversion is bargained and sold by Indenture and before inrolment a Fine is levyed by the Bargainor to the Bargainee and after the deed is inrolled yet the Bargainee must have an Attornment because he is in by the Fine and not by the Bargain and sale Crook part 1. 917. p. 8. 9. Where it is possible for a grant to take effect Grant to take effect as by possibility it may according to the Letter there the Law makes such a construction as by possibility it may take effect as if Lands are given to two men and the Heirs of their two Bodies the Law makes them joynt-tenants for life and gives them several Inheritances in Tail Cook upon Litt. 183. b. Stamford justice Three grounds for construction of deeds arguendo taketh three grounds for the construction of deeds First that it shall be taken most beneficially for the Party that taketh by them Secondly that the deed shall not be void where the words may be taken to any intent Thirdly that the words shall be construed according to the mind of the parties and not otherwise Plowden Antient deeds how construed fol. 160. Throgmortons case Antient deeds shall be construed as they were antiently taken although the Law be since altered vide Crook part 1. 633. p. 29. 10. Some words are large and have a general extent Exposition des parol● and some have a proper and particular application the former sort may contain the latter as dedi or concessi may amount to a Grant a Feoffment a Gift a Lease a Release a Confirmation or Surrender c. and it is in the Election of the Party to use them to which of these purposes he will● but a Release Confirmation or Surrender c. cannot amount to a Grant c. nor a Surrender ● a Confirmation or to a Release c. because they are proper and peculiar manner of conveyances and are destined to a special end Cook sur Litt. 301. b.

So Corporations Spiritual and Temporal Civil or Corporal may be Cognizees in Fines and Fines levyed to them will be good But before the Ingrossing of such a Fine there goeth alwaies a Writ to the Iustices of Common Pleas Quod permittunt Finem illum levari Note that a Fine sur Cognizance de droit come ceo c. may not be levyed to any person but one that is party to the writ of Covenant Except the Cognizee be a Demandant in a writ of Entry And so a Fine levyed by the Demandant to the Vouchee who is supposed by the Law to be Tenant to the land or from the Vouchee to the Demandant is good and yet they are not Parties to the Writ But a Fine levyed by the Vouchee to a Stranger is void Coke 3. 29. 7 Edw. 4. 13.

But for Knights Esquires and Gentlemen which be names of Worship and Honour their Christian name and Sur-name are alwaies expressed together with their Additions And as for the Additions of Bishop Dean Parson c. they are admitted in Fines rather out of Courtesie then necessity for the Fine may be good without them Brownlow 1. part 30. 7 H. 4. 22. 1.
