in capite and others in Soccage and he made a devise of all his fee simple lands and left only his lands in tail to descend to the heir which doth not amount to a full third part this is a good devise of all the fee simple lands and this case was also admitted that where the Lord Norrice gave land to Sir Edward Norrice his youngest son and to the heirs of the bodie of the father and then the Lord Norrice died and after Sir Edward died without issue that the son of the eldest Brother who was then dead shall take that as heir in tail and that he in this case had that by a descent from Sir Edward Norrice his Vncle which also doth clearly prove that in this Sir Edward Norrice son of the Lord Norrice was in this case Tenant in tail The residue of Easter Term in the two and twenty year of King James Stephens and Randal IN replevin between Stephens and Randal who made Conusance as Bailiff to the Earl of Bath and he shewed that such land was parcel of such a Chantrey which came to King Edward 6. by the Statute of 1. Edward 6. and also he pleaded the saving of the said Statute by which the right of others was saved and pleaded all incertain and shewed that so much rent was behinde upon which he made Conusance as c. to which the Plantiff replied that the land is out of the fee and signiorie of the Earl of Bath c. and this was ruled to be no plea for he confessed so much in his avoury and this avoury is not for rent service for the signiorie is extinct by act of Parliament but this is for rent reserved by the saving of the act of Parliament and this is a rent seek and yet is destrainable for the priviledge which was before but he may traverse the tenure that at the time of the making of the Statute nor never after this was holden of the said Earl of Bath Priest and King Priest and King in an action of which was entered between them Trin. 21 Iac. Rot. 3595. and this was debated between the Iudges and the Prothonotaries and the case was that two were bound for the appearance of an other and judgement was given against the debtor now if upon the capias he come and offer his bodie and the Plantiff refuse that yet that discharges the sureties but the Prothonotaries said that notwithstanding this refusal he may take a Capias against him within the year because that at the first he might have had a fierie facias or an elegit quere of that but Winch thought that in this case he ought to have a fierie facias but if he had come upon the Capias and had no suer●tes and he refuse to take him and this is so entred now quere if he had not discharged him Hendon moved the Court for a prohibition to the spiritual Court and suggested that one had libeld in the spiritual Court for a legacie and the Executor shewed that he had not assets to discharge the debts of the Testator and that Court would not allow this allegation and upon this he prayed to have a prohibition and it was the opinion of the Court that no prohibition shall be granted for the legacie is a thing meerly which is determinable in the spiritual Court and no other Court may have Conusance of that and this is also a thing which doth consist meerly in the discretion of the Court and resolved that in a thing which meerly doth rest in discretion of the Court in this case no prohibition shall be granted Henry Good against Thomas Good IT was agreed in the case by the Court between Henry Good and Thomas Good that if the devisee of 500. l. sue in the Marches of Wales for this legacie that a prohibition is grantable for though the Court of the Common pleas had no power to hold plea of that yet because that the thing is only triable in the Ecclesiastical Court a prohibition may be granted to reduce that to its proper Court and though the instruction of the Court of the Marches be to hold plea of all such things wheresoever there is no remedie at the Common Law yet this is to be understood of matters of equitie and not to take the jurisdiction from the spiritual Court for in verity the King may not do that by his Letters pattents but yet the Court agreed that if the Executor do suffer a decree against him in the Court of the Marches and not come to them at the first to be releived it is now meerly in the descretion of the Court whether they will grant that or no for that is a means to lengthen suits and to make the more delay before he do recover his legacie If a Capias ut legatum issueth to the Sheriff to take the partie and to enquire what lands and Tenements he had and the Sheriff findes by inquisition that he is seised of many lands and continues possession in them and the Sheriff do out me I shall have an action of trespass John Marriots case SErjeant Crawley moved this case in arrest of judgement in the case of Iohn Marriot and he declared upon a contract to table with the Plantiff at Ashton in Northamptonshire ad tunc ibidem superse assumpsit to pay 4. s. by the week for his diet and Crawley moved that this ought to have bin tried in Northamptonshire for these words ad tunc et ibident refer to Northamptonshire which was next before and not to London Hutton said that it ought to refer to London otherwise it was idle and it is to be intended of the time and the place where the promise was made but it was said if the issue had been whether he was tabled or no this shall be tried there Giles Bray against Sir Paul Tracie GIles Bray brought an action of waste against Sir Paul Tracie and in his declaration he conveyed a good tearm to the Defendant and a reversion to himself and upon a general issue a special verdict was found to this effect that Sir Edmund Bray was seised of this land in his demeasne as of fee and he being so seised 16. Eliz. made this lease for divers years to I. S. and he being so seised of the reversion conveyed that to the use of himself for life without impeachment of waste and then to the use of Edward Bray his eldest son and to Dorothie his wife and to the heirs males of the said Edward upon the said Dorothie to be ingendred and then Edward died having issue in tail the Plantiff and then this lease was assigned to Tracie and then Dorothie died and then the waste was committed and then Edmund the Grandfather died and the question was whether in this case an action of waste will lie or no. The argument of Serjeant Harris HArris argued that the waste doth lie for the priviledge or despensation which was annexed to the

son and his wife and upon a demurrer the question was whether this Covenant did raise a present use to the Son and to his wife or whether this only rests in Covenant and Harris Serjeant argued that no present use will arise by this Covenant for first all other Covenants in the indenture are in the future for the words are that the lands shall remain and come c. and therefore till the death of the Covenantor the fee simple is in him and no use will arise for it shall be in the election of the Covenantor what estate he will make to his Son for he himself shall interpret his intent and the difference in our books is when the words are in the present tense and when in the future and for this he cited 22. H. 7. by Iustice Rede if a man Covenant that land shall discend remain or revert he said this did not give any present interest because the wors are in the future and it is in the election of the Covenantor how and in what manner the land shall pass and there he put the case that if I give my horse or my Cow to I. S. there the Donee had election to take at his pleasure the one or the other because the words are in the present tense but if the words are that I will give a horse or a Cow there the Donor had election which he shall have because the words are in the future the Lord Borroughs Covenanted 34. H. 8. Dyer 55. with another in frank marriage with his son that immediately after his death his son shall enjoy the use of his land of inheritance according to the course as then they stood and the question was whether the see simple was presently out of the Covenantor and the opinion was that it was not because it was but a Covenant and did not change the fee simple and so is Dyer 96. Sir Thomas Seymor promised and Covenanted by indenture in consideration that the Covenantee had granted land to him that he would leavy a fine to Wimbish and Pennoy of other lands which fine should be to Sir Thomas Seymor for life the remainder to the Covenantee in taile and no fine was levied and the question was whether any use was raised by this Covenant to the Covenantee and the opinion of the book is that not because it is in the future and he cited the 20. H. 7. 10. the Duke of Buckingham in consideration that the Lord Henry his brother was to marry the Lady Wiltshire he Covenanted with Bray and with others that the Mannors of D. and of S. shall be to the Lady and to her heirs of her body begotten by the said Lord and after the Duke granted to the Lord Henry and his wife for their lives and it was argued whether this second grant is good or no for if it is then the first Covenant will not work to raise an use to the feme and the book left that as a quere and if it be then he argued that in the principal case no present use is raised but that this rests meerly in Covenant and so he prayed judgement for the Plantiff Serjeant Hendon to the contrary for he thought this will raise a present use and that this was the intent of the parties that this should raise a present use for the intent was to advance them first during their lives with the rent and after the death of the Covenantor and his wife with the land it self and therefore of necessity this will raise a present use for a bare action of Covenant may not be any advancement at all and the rather here because they who take benefit of this are strangers to the Covenant and not Preston himself for as it appears by 3. H. 7. a stranger shall not take benefit by a Covenant and therefore he said the intentions of the parties was to raise an use for otherwise there shall be no advancement at all And further the words in the indenture are Covenant and grant and if no use is raised then this word grant is idle and every word shall be so expounded that they may take effect and the word Covenant is insufficient of it self to pass an estate in land or to have any estate in signification other then to a meer Covenant and to be obligatory as is put Co. 2. Cromwels case Tirrels case there vouched a lease for years provided and it is Covenan●ed and agreed there the Covenant is a condition and also a Covenant and 8. Ass 1. 12. it is agreed that if I Covenant that an other shall have my land for 7. years this a good lease of the land it self and it was adjudged here Tr. 2. Jac. Rot. 1696. accordingly and in our case this word Covenant and grant is also sufficient to raise an use and to give an interest in the land it self and yet he agreed that if there was an other act to be made by the Covenantor or the Covenantee that then no use will arise but it shall rest only in Covenant Dyer 162. there are Covenants between the Lady Vere and Sir Anthony Wingfield her son that the said Lady would convey to her son by a recovery and that after 6. moneths the said Sir Anthony shall make an estate to his Mother for life and there it is doubted whether the use is changed within the 6. moneths and it was holden that it was not Mich. 20. Jac. C.P. for then it is impossible that the Covenants should be performed and in that case it is in the power of the Covenantor to make an act that the Covenants shall not be performed and therefore Covenants will not raise an use but in our case no act of the Covenantor may hinder that this use shall arise and therefore good and for that the difference is Dyer 296. which is entered 11. Eliz. the Roll of which I have seen the father upon the marriage of his son promised to the friends of his wife that after his death his son shall have his land to him and his heirs and the book is ruled that this did not change the use and the reason was this Covenant was by words and not in writing but it was not doubted if this Covenant had been by writing but that the Covenant will raise an use which is all one with our case and so was Callard and Callards case 37. Eliz. stand forth Eustace reserving to my wife and my self I give to thee and thy heires and there it was doubted whether any use will arise to the son and ruled that not because this was by words only but it was also agreed that if these words had been by writing they had been sufficient to raise an use to the son and he cited Dyer 232. before the Statute of the 27. H. 8. A Covenanted and agreed with B. that upon the marriage of his son with the daughter of the other that he would retain his land for life and that

after his death it shall remain to his son and his wife in fee and the book is that this Covenant will raise an use also if this Covenant and agreement will not amount to raise an use then it is not to any use or purpose at all and by consequence the consideration of the marriage is void also and an action of Covenant will very well lye without any such consideration of marriage and so he concluded and prayed judgement for the Defendant adjourned Mich. 20. Jac. C. P. Johnson against Norway IOhnson brought an action of Trespass against Norway of Trespass made in a piece of ground and the Defendant pleaded that 14. H. 7. Roger Le Strange and Anne his wife were seised of the Mannor of D. and one Giles Sherington Abbot of C. was seised of an acre of land in fee and held this of the said Roger Le-Strange as of the Mannor of D. aforesaid and that the 22. H. 7. the Abbot and all the Monks died by which the said land escheated to Roger c. and the Mannor discended to his son and heire after his death who conveyed the Mannor of which the acre is parcel after the escheat by mean conveyance to Hobert in fee and that Hobert 12. Eliz. infeoffed one Wright of the Mannor of which the said acre is parcel and so justified by a conveyance from Wright to the Defendant the Plantiff replied by protestation that the Abbot was not eligible and for plea he said that the aforesaid Hobert 10. Eliz. infeoffed I. S. of the said acre of land absque hoc that he infeoffed Wright of the sad Mannor of which the said acre is parcel and upon this the Defendant demurred generally And Serjeant Attoe argued for the Plantiff that the Plea of the Defendant is evil and then though the replication of the Plantiff is not good yet the Plantiff shall have judgement and he cited Turners case Hobert it is true Cook 8. if the replication be meerly void then it is as you had said but if the replication be the title of the Plantiff and that be insufficient there the Plantiff shall not have judgement though the plea in barre was evil Attoe agreed that if it appear by the Plantiffs own shewing that he had no cause of action and that he had no title he shall not have judgement but here he had made a good title by the lease of the said acre of land and though our traverse is evil and sounds in doubleness yet the Defendant had demurred generally and so he had lost the advantage of the doubleness or of the negative pregnant for if a ma● plead double matter this is only matter of form and not of substance and therefore after verdict it is good as hath been adjudged but he proceeded in his argument and he said that the barre of the Defendant is not good for by his own shewing this acre of land is not parcel of the Mannor for by the dissolution of the Monastery by the death of all the Monks the land shall go to the founders and donors and not to escheat to the Lord of which that is holden as appears 2. H. 6. 7. and 5. H. 7. if an annuity or rent be granted to an Abbot in fee and the Abbot and all his Monks do die the annuity or the rent is extinct and shall not escheat see the Deane of Norwiches case Coo. 3. agreed that by the death of the Abbot and his Covent the corporation is dissolved and then the possession shall go to the founders and shall not escheat to the Lord of the Mannor of which the Land was holden and he said that this point is proved cleerly by the Statute of the 27. H. 8. and 31. H. 8. of Monasteries in which Statutes there is an express saving to all persons except to the donors and to their heires and no mention is made of the saving of the right of those of whom the land was holden and that proves cleerly that if the makers of the Statute had thought that the land had escheated to the Lords they would have excepted them in the saving of the act as they had excepted the Donors and Founders for if otherwise the lands and possessions shall escheat to the Lords of which the land was holden they are within the saving of the Statute and then it will follow that after the death of all the Monks as at this day that the Lords shall have the land by escheat which the Sages of the Law never dreamt of who made that Statute that any thing may accrew to the Lord and therefore they provided only for the title of the Donors and Founders which is an argument that they thought that upon the dissolution of the Monesteries that the lands shall go to the Founders and the same he thought concerning a corporation at this day as of Suttons Hospital c. and so he concluded that because in the barre of the Defendant he claimed to hold from the Lord to whom he supposed the land to escheat and did not claim c. by his own shewing the barre is not good and though our replication and traverse is not good yet the Plantiff shall have judgement But admitting that the barre is good yet the replication and traverse is good and then judgement shall be given for the Plantiff and the case is the Defendant pleaded a feofment of the Man 12. Eliz. to Wright after that he had shewed the escheat of an acre the Plantiff replied that the 10th Eliz. the Feofor infeoffed C. of the acre of land absque hoc that he was infeoffed of the Mannor of which the acre is parcel and Attoe argued that the traverse is good and he alleadged 38. H. 6. 49. the same traverse and here when the Defendant had pleaded that the acre escheated and had alleadged a Feofment of the Mannor and had not expresly alleadged a Feofment of the acre the Plantiff may traverse that which is not expresly alleadged because this destroyes the very title of the Defendant and he cited for that 34. H. 6. 15. a writ of priviledge in trespass as a Servant to an auditor of the exchequer the Plantiff replied that he was servant to him in husbandry absque hoc that he was his servant to waite and attend upon him in his office and it was holden a good traverse and yet that was not expresly alleadged by the Defendant Hobert chief Iustice said that the traverse is not good for by the Feofment which was made the 12th Eliz. he had confessed and avoyded the Feofment which was made 10th Eliz. and so there needed no traverse and therefore he said the great doubt of the case will be upon the barre of the Defendant whether by the death of the Abbot and the Monks the land escheat to the Lords of whom that was holden or whether that shall go to the Donors and to the Founders and he thought that the land shall escheat to which

covenantor shall have an estate for life and so the law makes in that case fractions of estates as the case of the Lord Seymor Dyer 96. seems to accord with this and besides those two books he said he could not finde any book which will warrant that and for that reason he held those two books to be no law for if I Covenant that my son shall have my land after my death this will not raise an estate to me by implication for life and an estate to my son and so by such means to change my estate in fee for an estate for life without more words for the word covenant in his proper and native signification is only obligatorie and yet it had been alwayes conceived sufficient to raise an use to him who is not partie to that as if I covenant with a stranger that I will stand seised of my land to the use of my son this will raise an use to my son and yet neither my son nor the covenantee may have an action of covenant but an use will very well arise to my son as if a man bargain and sell his land in consideration of 100. l. paid by I. S. though in this case the consideration ariseth from a stronger yet that will pass the use to the bargainee and in case of covenant it is not this word covenant only which creats the use but it is rather the agreement of the parties which is testified by the covenant for if sufficient agreement appears there will not need this word covenant as if I will agree and declare to stand seised to the use of my son by which it appears that the word covenant is onely declarative of the intentions of the parties and then in the principal case the covenant is not that the son shall have the land but that the land shall come remain and be to him and those words are incertain as 21. H. 7. redert come or discent and for that reason it is all one with the law of the same case and then void to raise any use for the incertainly and then when Andrew Buckley covenants that his son shall have his lands and no words to inforce his intention and for that reason the intention shall be lyable to an action of covenant and not to change his estate which he had in fee for an estate for life by this covenant but if he had expresly covenanted that in consideration of marriage of his son that he would hold his land for life and after this should be to his son this will change the estate which was in fee for an estate for life but in our case the covenant being general and left to the indifferent construction of the law the word covenant shall be taken in his proper and native signification and this is obligatorie and so he concluded that this covenant being at the first to grant a rent and was executory and the last part of that is executory for assurance and the limitation of the estate to the son being intangled between these two Covenants this shall be of the same nature and by consequence the covenant is obligatorie only and will raise no use to the son and so he concluded that judgement shall be given for the Plantiff and it was commanded to be entered accordingly Sparrow against Sowgate IN debt by Sparrow against Sowgate who declared that the Defendant became Bail for one Richard Sowgate in Banco Regis against whom the Plantiff had brought a Bill of debt of 77. l. and now the Defendant bound himself in a Recognizance of 77. l. upon which the action is now brought that in case judgement should be given against the said Richard Sowgate that he shall satisfie the said judgement or render his bodie to prison for in this case no part was impossible for after the judgement the principal may render himself in B. R. to the Marshal for the redemption of his suretie and that is the Common course there as he said but he agreed the case to be otherwise if a scire facias issue out of the Kings Bench against the Bail for there the death of the principal is a good plea for a scire facias doth not lie there till default is assigned in the principal in his not comming upon the capias ad satisfaciendum which may not be when he is dead Note that but yet before any capias it is clear he may have an action of debt Sir Robert Hitcham Serjeant of the King to the contrary and he alledged this to be the constant course in the Kings Bench that the Bail is never chargable till there is default assigned in the principal upon the recorn of the Capias ad satisfaciendum which may not be here for the principal is dead and he agreed the case of the other side that when a man is to do two things though the one is become impossible yet he ought to perform the other but when it is in the election of one to make either the one or the other then it is otherwise see Dyer 262. and so he concluded for the Defendant Hobert chief Iustice said that it is inconvenient that the Plantiff shall be forced to sue his Capias ad satisfaciendum against the partie before he have execution against the Bail for perchance he will sue a fieri facias or an elegit against him and that the Corps of the partie will not satisfie him and Browlow Prothonotary said that it had been adjudged in this Court that such plea is not good Winch the course of the Kings Bench is that default shall be assigned upon the retorn of the principal before the Bail shall be charged and though the Plantiff refuse to take his bodie after he had made his election to take his fieri facias or elegit he shall never more resort to the Bail which was granted by Hobert and Hutton as to that last point and it was holden by all the Court that if the principal render his bodie though the Plantiff refuse to take that yet that is a discharge of the Bail and also it was agreed by Hutton Hobert and by Winch that if the course of the Kings Bench be such that the Bail shall not be forfeit till there is a default assigned in the principal the same course also shall be followed here and per Curiam if the course of the Kings Bench be such that such Capias is necessary to be awarded that then a convenient time shall be allowed for the principal to render his bodie gratis and if the principal do die before such time the Bail is discharged but it was said by Winch if he die before convenient time and the Capias is awarded that such death shall not discharge the Bail note that Iones Iustice said that he thought in this case that it is necessary that the principal render himself gratis for when he is let to Bail the law supposeth him to be alwayes in custodie

and to be forth comming and for that reason he ought to appear within a convenient time when the Plantiff demands him which Hobert also granted but he said that there needs not any demand if the course of the Kings Bench is contrary and Iones Iustice said that he had a judgement given in the Kings Bench that the bail is forfeit after default is assigned in the principal and Winch said that the course of the Kings Bench is that default ought to be assigned in the principal upon the return of the Capias before the Bail shall be charged and it was agreed if that course be there it shall be observed here also but it was said by Hutton that there ought to be a scire facias awarded and returned against the Bail before the Bail is forfeit and it was adjourned until another time that they might see presidents Cyprian Web against Barlow CYprian Web brought a replevin against Barlow and the Defendant avowed as lessee for life of the Mannor of Froston to which the Plantiff is a Copiholder of a Copihold of the same Mannor and that 15. Iaco. in mense May he girdled and cut a tree in the middle upon his Copihold and that the steward Anno Supradicto charged the homage to finde this by which he had forfeit his Copihold and the Defendant being Lord of the Mannor distrained his beasts damage feasant and the Plantiff said that the custome of the Mannor is that every Copiholder may lap and girdle absque hoc that he cut the tree and upon that the Defendant demurred and Attoe argued for the Plantiff in the replevin that this is no cause to forfeit the Coppihold for though the steward did charge the homage to finde that yet it doth not appear that he gave any proof of that And secondly the forfeiture is alledged to be in May and the Court was holden in April before which was impossible which the Court granted as to that last point and for that the Plantiff had judgement East 21. Jac. C. P. Thorntons case in a Prohibition THornton prayed a prohibition to the Arches and the case was such one had a recovery in a quare Impedit and he had a writ to the Bishop against Thornton upon which A. his Clark was admitted c. and after the recoverer died and Thornton supposing his heir to be in the ward of the King and that the said A took another benefice without sufficient qualification by which the Church was void by Cession and he attained a presentation of the King and he was admitted c. by the Lord keeper being within the Diocess of Lincoln and A. sued him in the spiritual Court and Thornton prayed a Prohibition and it was granted per Totam Curiam for without question there ought nothing to be questioned in the spiritual Court after the induction of the partie and whether it is a Cession or no doth properly belong to the Common Law and Iones cited a judgement in Williams case according note that by the constitution of Otho and Othobon that institution and induction is voidable in the spiritual Court if no Prohibition be prayed Sheldon against Bret. IN a quare Impedit between one Sheldon and Bret Hutton said that we in Chancery have adjudged that the grant of the next avoydance for money when the Parson was sick in his bed ready to die is Simony for the Statute is if the contract be made directly or indirectly by any way or means Fleming against Pitman FLeming brought an action of Covenant against Pitman and he declared upon an indenture and that the Defendant Covenanted to serve him honestly and faithfully as an apprentice in the mystery of Drapery for seven years and that he had defrauded him of his goods c. the Defendant pleaded the Statute of the 5. of Eliz. that none shall be an apprentice to any of the most worthy trades among which Drapery is one except his father have freehold to the value of 40. s. per annum to be certified to the place in which he is to be apprentice by three of the Iustices of the peace of the same County and this certificate to be inrolled in the Town book and he pleaded that no such certificate was made and he pleaded the branch of the Statute of the 5. of Eliz. which made every retainer contrary to the form of this Statute to be void and the Plantiff replied that he had 40. s. per annum and the Defendant rejoyned that he had not 40. s. per annum upon that the Plantiff demurred because the Defendant said in his rejoynder that he had not 40. s. per annum and in his plea he pleaded no such certificate and the Iustices c. Hutton Hobert and Iones said that the retainer is good though there is not any such certificate or inrolment if re vera the father had 40. s. per annum for the intent of the Statute is that sufficient mens sons should be apprentises which is observed if the father had 40. s. per annum and Winch cites Englefields case upon the Statut 28. Eliz. cap. 3. that every one which claims by a conveyance from a Traitor shall bring in his conveyance to the Chequ●e to be inrolled and yet if it be brought in though it be not inrolled the intention of the Statute is fulfilled and Iones cited a case in Banco Regis 18. Eliz. Robins case upon the Statute of 21. H. 8. of Pluralities where it was adjudged that a dispensation is good though it is not inrolled and yet there are as strong words of inrolment as may be And after in Trinity term 21. Iac. the same case was argued again by Attoe for the Plantiff and by Hitcham for the Defendant and per totam Curiam at that time it was agreed cleerly that this is a departure but for the second point whether the pleading of the certificate were good or no that was the doubt and Iustice Hutton thought there ought to be a certificate precede the indenture or otherwise that shall be void but Hobert as to that would not give his opinion but he seemed as Hutton and Hobert chief Iustice took exception to the laying of the action for he thought the Statute of the 5. of Eliz. shall not be intended so strong against infants as to make Collateral covenants to be good but Attoe moved that this covenant is incident to the retainer to serve truly and faithfully and yet if it were a Collateral covenant yet he had lost the advantage of that by his pleading as in debt upon an obligation against an infant if he plead non est factum he shall not have advantage of his Infancy to which Hobert also agreed but he said this is not like to our case for here it appears by the Count of the Plantiff that the Infant was but of the age of 15. years at the time of the retainer of which the Court ought to take notice and here the

had two sons and he do Covenant in consideration of natural affection that if the eldest return from Rome by such a day that then he will stand seised to his use and if he do not return then he will stand seised to the use of the youngest son now if in this case the eldest die before the day so that it is become impossible that he should return yet that will not hinder the raising of the use to the youngest son and so in Dyer 331. the limitter may not have any estate against his own limitation of his uses for this is his own fact and so in our case it is his own default to make such a limitation and now for the fourth point whether any notice is requisite to the heirs and first I agree that in many cases a man shall not lose a thing except he had notice but there are two exceptions from this rule upon which I will put some cases and then I will applie them and first the ordinary may present by laps and he needs not to give notice for it s supposed in law that the ordinary will in 6. moneths see whether the cure is served or no nay if the patron was a Purchasor and a stranger present he had lost his inheritance and yet no notice ought to be given and the 12. H. 7. if the Tenant of the Lord do die without heir and a stranger do enter and Abates and dies seised now the Lord had lost the benefit of the escheat and yet perchance he had no notice of that and so was the opinion of Dyer and Welch 4. Eliz. that if two Copartners make partition in this case the Lord ought to take notice at his peril and secondly when one is bound to take notice at his peril as in Westby's case Cook 3. the new Sheriff ought to take notice of the Execution upon the prisoners when he takes them and so is the first of H. 7. 4. a man being bound to perform an arbitrement he ought to take notice of that at his peril but in our case here is a presumption in law that he had notice for he had the land from his ancestor and in the same degree and so the law doth intend that he had notice of the conditions and if he had not it is the default of his Ancestor that he had not left his deeds with him Secondly the heir is privie to the condition this doth descend to him and therefore he ought to take notice of that and put the case that an Action of debt is brought against the heir upon the obligation of his father and he pleads he had nothing by discent and it is found that he had a reversion expectant upon a Term for life of which he had not notice of yet that will not excuse for the law intends that he had notice and that he shall be charged as if it were his own debt and also the deed after the death of his Ancestor doth appertain to him and if the deeds are kept from him he may have an action for them and besides here no man is bound to give him notice for if it should be given it ought to be given to the heir or to the Executors for they may both save the land by the performance of the condition nay if there be 20. Coheirs there ought to be notice given to them all because they are to lose their inheritance by that and it is not like to the case which was adjudged where there are two obligors to make such an assurance as the obligee shall devise there a devise to one is sufficient because this concerns a personal thing but otherwise when this doth concern an inheritance as here but I relie upon the reason of the first forming of the deed if I am not bound to give notice at the time of the making of the deed I shall not be bound to give notice by any matter ex post facto and yet I do agree that in many cases where a thing is certain at the first and doth refer to some future agreement that in such cases there ought to be notice given to the partie as Hill 12. Iac. in this Court Rot. 109. where a promise was made upon a consideration Trin. 22. Jac. C. P. that the other will with draw his suit which he had in the Exchequer that then he will give to him so much when he came into Somersetshire and adjudged that the partie ought to give notice when he came in to Somersetshire but in our case every thing is certain at the time of the making of the deed 38. Assises 7. if a feofment is made upon condition to regrant to the feoffor and his heirs if in this case the feoffor do die he is not bound to regrant to his heirs without a request another reason is who shall give notice to the Lady that Foyn is dead she is bound to take notice of that at her peril and also if the Lady had died who shall give notice to the Executors that they may attend to receive the money for if they do not attend this is a peremptory refusal and for that reason it is equitie that if no notice is to be given of one side then there shall be none given of the other side and so I conceive that there doth not need any notice and now for the last point c. of the estate for life whether if no fee do arise whether she had lost her estate for life and first this is no Forfeiture for here he in reversion is partie but it is said that this is extinct but let us examine if this had been before the Statute of uses no more use will result then was before and for the estate for life that is saved and it was resolved Trin. 5. Iac. that if Tenant for life grant his estate by fine to another and yet he doth express no use that it shall be to the use of the partie because that the Law intends that by this it is disburthened of the danger of waste but in our case the estate of the Conusee is saved by the Statute of the 27. H. 8. for this saves all rights titles possessions c. of those who shall be seised to any use and so was it adjudged in Cheny and Oxenbridge his case that the Term for years was saved but the doubt in that case was not whether a Term was saved which he had to his own use but that which he had to the use of his wife and adjudged that this was saved and 32. Eliz. it was ruled in the Chancery between Tates and Willers that if he in reversion do infeof lessee for years and two others there it was ruled that the Term was saved and so it was adjudged Trin. 17. Iac. Rot. 246. Francis Priors case that where the lessee for years is and he in reversion levies a fine to the lessee to the intent that he suffer a
