upon several Limitations therein expressed Whereas in truth the said Chambre of Carnow did perfect in his Life-time only one Deed dated the 2d of November which was only of the Reversion and Feoffees mentioned on his part and these after Deeds were set up and the said Esq Lester and Chambre of Minmore who knew nothing of them named therein only to colour the business For Fourthly this Nuncupative Will and several Deeds being set on foot and the said Job Ward having Married Mary the Relict of Chambre of Carnow and they desiring the Earl that the 13200 l. might be laid out in Land for Calcot Chambre an Infant then living Son of the said Chambre of Carnow and Mary or else to be restored to Shelelah again his Honour made the said Job Ward his favorite and caused him and the said infant to Petition that the said Trustees James Fines Nathaniel Fines c. might give up their Trust in the aforesaid Lease of 200 years who induced by the said Suppositious Deeds and a Decree grounded thereupon and obtained by the Earles Potency in the Chancery of Ireland were prevailed thereupon to Sell the said Lease but without the said Job Ward or his Wifes Signing the same to two persons for the use of Carpenter Wentworth and others But it was upon Condition that 13200 l. should be paid or laid out for purchasing Land of Inheritance according to the aforesaid Articles Which Articles were to be performed before November 1645. But were never made good nor can be The Trustees Sold it Conditionall for 13200 l. a year after Chambres death which is an Argument their Trust was not void True it is in the time of the Suites with the said Trustees of the Lease of 200 years the late Earl of Strafford pretended to purchase a place called the Rannalaghs or Knochrea of Sir Adam Loftus which was Plantation Lands taken from the Irish and given to several men upon Commissions of Grace and no real Inheritance for it was only a Lease for years and with several Limitations in Pursuance of some part of the aforesaid pretended Articles and though the Earls Agents pretended they laid out 10000 l. for it yet if they did it was in their own wrong and not with our Consent and the Land was not worth 5000 l. as appears by many Witnesses Fifthly That in the year 1640. The real Will in Writing of the said Chambre of Carnow intrusted by him with Mr. Guttridge then Minister of Carnow was produced which being proved and administred unto by the said Mary his Relict and the Nuncupative Will though she was forced to administer a year before and the Earl of Strafford had spent above 500 l. in Law to maintain it thrown out of Court The said Earl and his Agents began to be at a stand because all false Deeds and Articles of Agreement upon which the Trustees assigned away their Trust being all done upon that Nuncupative Will seemed to signifie very little And therefore to the intent that if one device would not serve another might The Earl as it is said having about Trinity Term 1637. 13 Car. I. caused a Case called The Case of Tenures upon Defective Titles to be made without Jury Tryal Consent of Parties or any Legal Process and procured Letters Pattents wherein amongst others this Estate of Shelelah was Craftily mentioned as a Defective Title though it never were so as by Inquisition upon Record appears He obtained an Act to pass both Houses of Parliament in 1640. as now pretended to invest it in the Crown amongst 400 and odd Mannors as a Defective Title That the said Job Ward and his Wife upon setting aside the Nuncupative Will had all the Deeds and Writings and the said Lease of 200 years that was resigned up by the Right Honourable the now Lord Crew in their own hand and the same were not then delivered to the Earl of Strafford or his Agents Because the proving of the real Written Will had hindred any further proceedings at present And in the time of the Rebellion Job Ward and the said Mary was turned out of the Rannalaghs and came into England and the said Job her Husband likewise Died. That in the year 1647. the now Suppliant William Eyre Intermarryed with the said Mary formerly Relict and Executrix of the said Calcot Chambre of Carnow and thereby in Right became Intituled unto and ought to have had and enjoyed the use and benefit of the Premisses under and according to the Trust aforesaid for the then remainder of the aforesaid Term of 200 years And accordingly most of the Writings aforesaid came to his hands and also the said Lease of 200 years But by Deceit and Subtilty he was deprived of them and many of them came into the now Earl of Straffords hands and his Agents For the said Eyre by means of his opposing Oliv. Cromwell in his Arbitrary power and the death of the late King of Blessed Memory being a close Prisoner in Warwick Castle in the year 1649. Judge Advocate Whaley formerly a servant to Mrs. Chambre in Ireland then Eyres Wife perswaded her to make Colonel James Temple her Daughters Guardian least Cromwell should Sequester their Estate because of her Husbands Actions whose pernicious advice she took and trusted the said Temple with most of the Writings concerning the Estate upon his promise to restore her Daughter and Writings upon demand But the said Eyre and his Wife in the year 1650. demanding them he refused to deliver them and contrary to his promise inveigels the Daughter to Marry his youngest Son Alexander That Eyre in the Latter end of the year 1650. went into Ireland to look after his Estate in Right of his Wife and then the Lord Ireton being informed by most of the Nobility and Gentry of the wrong done to Mr. Chambre the said Eyres Predecessor by the late Earl of Strafford Did by the advice of the then Councel put the said Eyre in possession of the said Chambres Estate of Shelelah aforesaid which the said Eyre held several years But being made Prisoner again by Oliv. Cromwell for many years together the Earl of Strafford and Colonel James Temple and his Son Alexander and his Wife taking the opportunity of Eyres Imprisonment combined together and commenced many Suites to out him of the said Premisses of Shelelah of which he was in Possession and made use of the said Writings which the said Colonel Temple had so unduely deprived the said Eyre of and re-delivered the Lease of 200 years into the now Right Honourable the now Lord Crews hands one of the Trustees who hath acknowledged that he hath the same by him and would deliver it to whom a Court shall command The first Suite the said Confederates commenced was on the behalf of the Countess of Carlile for the aforesaid Lease of 22 years yet had not paid a Penny Rent nor any Profit of the Woods according to the Tenor thereof so that the same was long
