Eyre April the 20 th 1965. The Second Volume TERMINO SANCTI HILLARII Anno Vicesimo primo secundo Caroli Secundi IN COMMUNI BANCO Craw versus Ramsey IN an Ejectment of Lands and the Rectory of Kingston upon Thames in Surrey Vpon Not Guilty pleaded the Jury found a Special Verdict to this effect viz. That Robert Ramsey Born in Scotland before the Accession thereof to the Crown of England had Issue four Sons Robert Nicholas John and George Antenati Robert died they do not find when leaving Issue three Daughters Margaret Isabel and Jane who were also Aliens and alive 1 Octob. 14 Car. 1. Nicholas had Issue Patrick born in England 1 May 1618. They also find that at the Parliament holden 10 Car. 1. in Ireland it was Enacted That all Persons of the Scottish Nation should be reputed the Kings Natural Subjects to all intents constructions and purposes of that his Realm of Ireland as if Born there And they find the Act of Parliament at large Nicholas Ramsey was alive at the making of that Act. John the third Son afterwards Earl of Holderness was Naturalized by Act of Parliament in England 1 Jacobi and purchased the Lands and Rectory in question and being seised 22 Jac by Indenture Tripartite between him of the First part Sir William Cocke and Martha his Daughter of the Second part and Charles Lord Effingham of the Third part In Consideration of a Marriage to be had between him and Martha did Covenant to levy a Fine to the use of himself for Life and afterwards to Martha for Life the Remainder to the Heirs Males of his Body the Remainder to his own right Heirs And 29 Septemb. 22 Jac. the Marriage was had and the Michaelmas Term after a Fine was Levied accordingly The 24 of Jan. 1 Car. 1. the Earl died without Issue Martha Entred and was seised for her Life and died 17 Car. Et eodem anno it was found by Office that the Earl of Holderness died seised of the Rectory as before and without an Heir and that King Charles anno decimo granted this Rectory to one Murray George the fourth Son of Robert was Naturalized by the Parliament here 7 Jac. He had Issue John the Defendant Nicholas died Patrick his Heir in 1651. bargained and sold to the Earl of Elgin and one Sydenham virtute cujus vigore Statuti c. they were seised prout Lex postulat and in 1662. bargained and sold for years to Amabel Countess of Kent and Jane Hart and afterwards Released to them and their Heirs in 1665. They being seised bargained and sold by Lease and Release also to Pullen and Neale who Entred and bargained and sold to Sir Lionel Talmash and West the Lessors of the Plaintiff upon whom John the Defendant Entred Vpon which the Action is brought and the great Question in the Case was Whether Patrick the Son of Nicholas might claim these Lands as Heir to the Earl of Holderness by virtue of the Act of Parliament in Ireland 10 Car. or that they should descend to the Defendant the Son of George Naturalized the 7 of Jac. in England Wyld and Archer who Argued first were of Opinion That however the Point was adjudged the Plaintiff could not have Judgment upon this Verdict for they do not find that Patrick entred or was seised but that he in 1651. did bargain and sell c. Virtute cujus the Bargainees were seised prout Lex postulat and then bargained and sold in 1662 and do not so much as find their Bargainees seised prout Lex postulat But they find the Defendant Entred and so the primer Possession is in him which is a good Title against the Plaintiff for whom none is found it not being found that Patrick Entred Again If the Naturalization in Ireland will serve in England the Title appears for the Daughters the Heirs of Robert the eldest Son for 't is found that he died but not when so it might be after the Act of 10 Car. But Tyrrell and Vaughan Chief Justice differed in these two Points As to the First They said it would be intended Patrick entred for a Verdict that leaves all the Matter at large to the Iudgment of the Court will be taken sometimes by Intendment as well as where the Jury Conclude upon a Special Point 2 Cro. 64. find an Incumbent Resigned the Resignation shall be intended accepted So in 4 Co. Fullwood's Case it was found that one came before the Recorder of London and Mayor of the Staple recognovit se debere c. and did not say per scriptum suum Obligatorium nec per formam Statuti yet intended so Vid. Hob. 262. And where they find the Bargainees seised prout lex postulat that doth not leave it doubtful whether seised or no but whether by right or wrong for Seisin must be taken as found expresly Neither do they find any other in possession nor that the Defendant made any Claim in Twelve years after which enforces the Intendment as before And it is found expresly that Pullen and Neale Entred in 1665. so that the Defendant had not the primer Possession however or if he had he should not have Judgment if no other Title were found for him as is Resolved in 1 Cro. 42. Hern and Allen's Case As to the Second It shall be intended Robert died before 10 Car. For he is found an Alien and shall be presumed to have continued so during his Life unless found to the contrary then the Discent to the Daughters is obstructed by the Incapacity of their Father And tho' when the Title is found for the King the Court shall adjudge for him because the Kings Courts are intrusted with his Rights 't is not so of any other person but they shall take no
it could not appear upon the Record but that the Verdict was against the Plaintiff upon the mistake of the Action whereas here it appears upon the Matter at large set forth in the Special Verdict that Judgment was given against the Plaintiffs upon the Merits of of the Cause And the Court were of Opinion that the Plea in Bar was good in this Case but they took the Case of Putt and Royston to be a Case of the same nature For tho' the Issue were General yet in regard of the Averments which in every such Plea there must be it appears to the Court that the Matter was the same as well as here it doth upon the Special Verdict and if it were not the same so that the Plaintiff was barred to the former by mistaking the Nature of his Action the Averment might be traversed Therefore by reason of that Case Adjudged and the Importunity of the Plaintiffs Leave was given by the Court to speak further to the Case the next Term. The Earl of Mountague versus The Lord Preston IN an Action on the Case for the Profits of the Office of Master of the King's Wardrobe the Plaintiff Declared That King Charles the Second in the 23th year of his Reign granted him a Patent to hold the said Office for Life reciting a former Grant thereof to the Earl of Sandwich and the Surrender of that Grant And that the Defendant by colour of a Patent granted to him in the First year of the late King James had entred upon the Office and taken the Profits and had deprived the Plaintiff of the whole benefit and profit of the Office Vpon Not guilty pleaded it came to a Trial at the Bar this Term and it was insisted upon for the Defendant That the Plaintiffs Patent having recited a former Grant that they must prove that Grant to have been surrendred To which it was Answered That if they took advantage of the Recital they must admit all that was recited as well the Surrender as the Grant And of that Opinion was the Court. Then the Defendant produced the Earl of Sandwich's Patent and this the Court held would put the Plaintiff to prove a Surrender And a Surrender was shewn in Evidence accordingly Note It was said in an Action of this Nature that it is not necessary to shew every particular Sum received by the Defendant But it is a good Evidence for the Damage to shew the Profit of the Office communibus annis Anonymus AFter an Extent upon a Statute and a Liberate out of this Court the Writ was Habere fac ' terr' tenementa instead of Liberari facias and it was moved to amend the word Habere in the Writ and to make it Liberari And after divers Motions the Court Ordered the Amendment to be accordingly because it is a Judicial Writ 8 Co. 157. a. 1 Cro. 709. A Writ of Enquiry was awarded to the Sheriffs of London and it was quod Inquirat instead of Inquirant and it was amended Vid. the Case of Walker and Riches 3 Cro. 162. and the Case of Keer and Guyn Hob. 90. but in that Case the Roll was wrong in a very material thing for it was not said in the Elegit the Lands and Tenements of the Defendant Anonymus AN Action of Debt was brought in this Court for a Sum of Money recovered in the Hundred Court and the Defendant was admitted to wage his Law tho' at first the Court doubted Vid. Mo. 276. for a Wager of Law to an Action of Debt brought for an Amercement in a Court Baron Note When the Defendant hath his Hand upon the Book before he is sworn the Plaintiff is to be called and he may be Non-suited The Defendant is to bring his Compurgators but they may be less than Eleven and they are sworn de credulitate Anonymus AN Action was brought for speaking of these words of the Plaintiff He broke my House like a Thief And upon Not guilty pleaded a Verdict was found for the Plaintiff And the Court held the words not to be Actionable Anonymus IN an Action for Words spoken of the Plaintiff in saying He was a Clipper and Coiner After Verdict upon Not guilty pleaded it was moved in Arrest of Judgment that the Words did not charge him with Clipping and Coining of Money and Clipping and Coining might be apply'd to many other things But the Court held the Words to be Actionable in regard of the strong Intendment and such Words are understood by those that heard them to mean Clipping and Coining of Money Anonymus AN Attorney brought an Action for that the Defendant said of him He is a Cheating Knave and not fit to be an Attorney After Verdict for the Plaintiff it was moved in Arrest of Judgment that there was no Communication of his Profession and the Words did not necessarily relate to his Practice But the Court held the Action would lye for saying That he was not fit to be an Attorney shewed plainly that Cheating Knave had reference to that Anonymus UPon a Motion for a New Trial it appeared that the Solicitor for the Plaintiff who also was an Attorney had wrote two Letters to two of the Jury before the Trial importuning them to Appear and setting forth the Hardships that his Client had suffered in the Cause and how he had Verdicts for his Title The Court set aside the Trial for this Cause and Committed the Solicitor to the Fleet for this Misdemeanor being Embracing of a Jury and before his Discharge made him pay Ten pounds to the party towards the Charges of the Trial. Pretious versus Robinson THe Cause being at Issue in Hillary Term last a Venire was awarded and a Jury Retorned upon it and in Easter Term after another Venire was awarded and a Trial was by a Jury Returned upon the two Venire's Vpon this the Court set aside the Verdict for there was no Authority for the two Venire's so all the Proceedings thereupon are void and not aided by the Statute of 16 Car. 2. Cooke versus Romney AN Action of Covenant was brought against two and it was quod teneat conventionem instead of teneant and after a Writ of Error brought it was moved that it might be amended and made teneant It was Objected That False Latin in an Original could not be amended as hos breve for hoc breve so in Waste destrictionem for destructionem Blackamore's Case 8 Co. But the Court granted the Motion and ordered the Amendment And it was said of late days it had been done in case of a word Mistaken in an Original as in Ejectment divisit for dimisit Vid. in Blackamore's Case the like 159. b. Imaginavit for imaginatus est was amended Anonymus IN Trover and Conversion for a Mare Vpon Not guilty pleaded and a Verdict for the Plaintiff it was moved in Arrest of Judgment that the Mare was said ad valentiam and it should have been pretii Sed non
Ground tanquam ad Mesuag ' praed ' spectant ' pertinent ' de jure habere debet and that the Defendant stopped it up ad damnum c. The Defendant pleaded a frivolous Plea to which there was a Demurrer It was Objected on the Defendant's part that the Declaration was insufficient because the Plaintiff did not prescribe for the Way nor otherwise entitle himself to it than by a possession of the Messuage and that he had and ought to have a Way to the said Messuage belonging And a difference was taken between this and Dent and Oliver's Case 2 Cro. 43. where one alledged himself to be seised in Fee of a Mannor and had a Fair there and that the Defendant disturbed him to take Toll And in 2 Cro. Stackman and West there is a Prescription laid in the Dean and Chapter who had the Fee for the Way But it was Objected That a Corporation could not prescribe in a Que Estate but it was held well being but inducement to the Action And the Court here held the Declaration sufficient being but a possessory Action And a Case was said to be so Adjudged in this Court between the same parties Anno primo Jacobi secundi Vide the Case of Saint John and Moody upon the like Point Woodward al' versus Fox IN an Indebitat ' Assumpsit for 200 l for so much Money received by the Defendant for the use of the Plaintiffs The Defendant pleaded Non assumpsit and upon that a Special Verdict was found That in the Year 1681. before the Promise supposed c. John Hammond was and yet is Archdeacon of Huntington within the Diocess of Lincoln and that the Bishop of Lincoln is Patron of the Archdeaconry and that the Office of Register of the Court of Archdeaconry was time out of mind grantable by the Archdeacon for the Term of three Lives and that the said John Hammond in the said Year 1681. for 100 l sold and granted to Simon Michael and John Juce for their Lives the said Office of Register it being an Office concerning the administration of Justice and that by Colour thereof they enjoyed the Office till Juce died which was in 1687. and soon after in the same year the said Simon Michael died in the possession of the said Office and that Hammond was no ways Convicted of selling the said Office upon any prosecution at Law or otherwise And they further said That Thomas Bishop of Lincoln in the said Year 1687. after the Death of Juce and some time before the Death of Michael granted the said Office of Register to the Defendant Fox and set forth the Grant in haec verba which mentioned the said Registers Office to be void by the Statute of the 5 6 Ed. 6. against Sale of Offices and that thereupon it belonged to the said Bishop to grant the said Office by virtue of which the said Fox became seised of the said Office prout lex postulat And they find afterwards that in the same Year that Juce and Michael died Hammond being Archdeacon as aforesaid granted the said Office to the Plaintiffs Woodward Masters and Gilbert for their Lives and that they entred upon the said Office and became seised thereof ꝓut lex postulat And they find that the Bishops Grant was Afterwards Confirmed by the Dean and Chapter and they find that afterwards viz. the 22 of Octob. Anno regni Willielmi Mariae primo the said King and Queen their Letters Patents under the Great Seal reciting that the said Office appertained to Their Majesties to grant by the said Statute of Edward the 6th did grant the said Office of Register to the said Plaintiffs Woodward Masters and Gilbert for their Lives and that by virtue thereof they entred upon and exercised the said Office and received divers Fees and Profits thereunto belonging and that the Defendant having notice thereof did take divers Fees and Profits of the said Office amounting to 30 l claiming them to his own use c. and if upon the whole Matter c. Vpon this Special Verdict there were these Points moved The first Point was Whether this Office of Register could be granted for Lives This was not much insisted on by the Defendants Council it having been usually granted and so found by the Verdict 3 Cro. Young and Fowler 's Case a Grant in Reversion of the Registers Office was allowed being warranted by Usage and so in 3 Cro. Young and Stoel But unless there have been such Vsage 't is not grantable in Reversion Vide 3 Cro. Walker and Sir John Lamb. The second Point was Whether the Grant of this Office in Consideration of Money is void by the Statute of the 5th and 6th of Edward the 6th against Sale of Offices That Point was also waved it being Resolved in Dr. Trevor's Case 12 Co. 78. 2 Cro. 269. forasmuch as it concerned Administration of Justice The third Point was That the Statute of 5 Ed. 6. Enacting That the person who takes any Money for any Office shall lose and forfeit all his Right to any such Office c. Whether the King or the Bishop shall take advantage of this Forfeiture in regard the Statute doth not express who shall dispose of the Office in such case Co. Lit. 159. a. And it was said on the part of the Plaintiff That when a Statute gives a Forfeiture and not said to whom the King shall have it 11 Co. 60. a. unless there be a particular party grieved as upon the Statute of 2 Ed. 6. of Tythes and yet it was for some time before it was setled that the Parson should have the treble Value in that Case And this agrees with the Reason of the Common Law things that are nullius in bonis the King shall have them as extra Parochial Tythes 11 H. 4. 17. Vid. 5. Co. in Sir Henry Constable's Case The Soil of Navigable Rivers and derelict Lands was with this difference If the Sea leaves the Land gradatim and for but a little quantity the Owner of the Land shall have it but if in a great quantity at a time it goes to the King Davis Rep. 5. 6. Vid. Siderfin 86. Dyer 126. 'T is true at the Common Law where a person hath an Interest in that which is Forfeited he shall have the benefit of it as if a Park-keeper forfeit it shall go to the Owner of the Park And in Sir John Breon's Case Bridgm. 27. where the Earl of Lancaster gave License to make a Park in his Forest and the party forfeited his Office the Earl had the advantage of it In those cases the thing is forfeited to him from whom it was granted as a Copyholder forfeits to his Lord and Tenant for Life to him in Reversion but here the Bishop hath nothing to do with the Office of Register he cannot dispose of it in the time of Vacancy of the Archdeaconry The Verdict finds that his Office is to Register the Acts in the
of the Crown so 11. and so it was held in the Case of the Earl of Essex in Queen Elizabeths Time and in the Lord Cobham's Case in the Reign of King James the First And the Chief Justice cited the Statute made 29 H. 6. cap. 1. upon the Rebellion of Jack Cade which Act sets forth that John Cade naming himself John Mortimer falsly and traiterously imagined the Death of the King and the destruction and subversion of this Realm in gathering together and levying of a great Number of the King's People and exciting them to Rise against the King c. against the Royal Crown and Dignity of the King was an Overt act of imagining the Death of the King and made and levied War falsly and trayterously against the King and his Highness c. So that it appears by that Act that it was the Iudgment of the Parliament That gathering Men together and exciting them to Rise against the King was an Overt Act of Imagining the Death of the King Vide Stamford's Pleas of the Crown fo 180. And according to this Opinion Judgment was given against Harding in the following Sessions and he was Executed thereupon NOta At an Adjourned Sessions held the 19th of May 2 Willielmi Mariae it appeared that one of the Kings Witnesses which was to be produced in an Indictment for Treason had been the day before Challenged to Fight by a Gentleman that it was said was a Member of the House of Commons he was by the Court bound in a Recognizance of 500 l to keep the Peace And because it appeared the Witness had accepted the Challenge he was bound in the like Sum. NOta Vpon an Appeal to the House of Lords Anno 2 Willielmi Mariae the sole Question was Whether upon the Statute of Distributions 22 23 Car. 2. the half Blood should have an equal share with the whole Blood of the Personal Estate And by the Advice of the two Chief Justices and some other of the Judges the Decree of the Lords was That the Half Blood should have an Equal share Samon versus Jones IN an Ejectment brought in the Court of Exchequer in the year of the Reign of the late King James the Second The Case upon a Special Verdict was to this effect William Lewis seised of a Reversion in Fee expectant upon an Estate for Life did by Deed Poll in Consideration of Natural love and affection which he had to his Wife and Robert Lewis his Son and Heir apparent begotten on the Body of his said Wife and to Ellen his Daughter give grant and confirm unto the said Robert Lewis the Son all those Lands c. the Reversion and Reversions Remainder and Remainders thereof To have and to hold to his Son and his Heirs to the Vses following viz. to the use of himself for Life and then mentioned several other Vses not necessary to be here mentioned as not material to the Point in question and then to the use of the Wife for Life and after to the use of Robert and the Heirs of his Body and for want of such Issue to the use of Ellen the Daughter and the Heirs of her Body c. William Lewis and his Wife died Robert the Son devised the Estate to the Lessor of the Plaintiff and died without Issue Ellen was in possession and claimed the Lands by this Deed in which th●re was a Warranty but no Execution of the said Deed further than the Sealing and Delivery was had either by Enrolment Attornment or otherwise So that the sole Question was Whether this Deed should operate as a Covenant to stand seised or be void And it was Adjudged to amount to a Covenant to stand seised in the Court of the Exchequer And upon a Writ of Error brought upon the Statute of Ed. 3. before the Commissioners of the Great Seal and others empowered by that Act to sit upon Writs of Error of Judgments given in the Court of Exchequer the said Judgment was Reversed by the Opinion of Holt Chief Justice of the Kings Bench and Pollexfen Chief Justice of the Common-Pleas And upon a Writ of Error before the Lords in Parliament brought upon the said last Judgment it was Argued for the Plaintiff in the VVrit of Error That this should enure as a Covenant to stand seised to the use of the Wife Son c. It appears by Bedell's Case in the 7 Co. and Foxe's Case in the 8 Co. that the words proper to a Conveyance are not necessary but ut res magis valeat a Conveyance may work as a Bargain and Sale tho' the words be not used so as a Covenant to stand seised tho' the word Covenant is not in the Deed and and Poplewell's Case were cited in 2 Roll. Abr. 786 787. A Feme in Consideration of a Marriage intended to be had between her and J. S. did give grant and confirm Lands to J.S. and his Heirs with a Clause of VVarranty in the Deed which was also Enrolled but no Livery was made It was Resolved to operate as a Covenant to stand seised Vide Osborn and Churchman's Case in the 2 Cro. 127. which seems contrary to that Case but the chiefest Case relied upon was that of Crossing and Scudamore Mod. Rep. 175. where a man by Indenture bargained sold enfeoffed and confirmed certain Lands to his Daughter and her Heirs and no Consideration of Natural Love or Money exprest This was Resolved 22 Car. 2. in B.R. to operate as a Covenant to stand seised and upon a Writ of Error in the Exchequer Chamber the Judgment was affirmed It was said on the other side for the Defendant That the Case at Bar differed from the Cases cited for here the Intention of the Deed is to transfer the Estate to the Son and that the Vses should arise out of such Estate so transferred In the Cases cited no Vses are limited upon the Estate purported or intended to be Conveyed but only an Intention appearing to convey an Estate to the Daughter in Crossing's Case and to the intended Husband in Poplewell's Case and seeing for want of due Execution in those Cases the Estate could not pass at Law it shall pass by raising of an Vse But the Case at Bar is much the same with the Case of Hore and Dix in Siderfin the 1st Part. 25. where one by Indenture between him and his Son of the one part and two Strangers of the other part in Consideration of Natural love did give grant and enfeoff the two Strangers to the use of himself for Life Remainder to the Son in Tail c. and no other Execution was three than the Sealing and Delivery of the Deed this was Resolved not to raise an Vse for the Vse was limited to rise out of the Seisin of the Strangers who took no Estate Vide Pitfield and Pierce's Case 15 Car. 1. Marche's Rep. 50. One gave granted and confirmed Lands to his Son after his Death this Deed had been
