the_o intayl_n and_o then_o he_o join_v in_o defence_n of_o the_o trial_n there_o be_v a_o issue_n direct_v and_o a_o verdict_n upon_o the_o right_n it_o will_v have_v be_v hard_o to_o have_v make_v all_o that_o signify_v nothing_o as_o it_o must_v if_o there_o be_v no_o decree_n make_v but_o the_o court_n be_v so_o possess_v of_o the_o cause_n it_o be_v fit_a and_o just_a to_o make_v some_o rule_n upon_o those_o proceed_n and_o no_o other_o can_v be_v but_o the_o say_a decree_n for_o it_o will_v have_v be_v very_o unreasonable_a to_o have_v dismiss_v the_o bill_n when_o the_o plaintiff_n mr._n st._n legers_n right_a have_v be_v assert_v upon_o the_o trial_n by_o the_o decree_n the_o appellant_n have_v all_o the_o favour_n show_v he_o that_o be_v possible_a for_o although_o the_o verdict_n find_v no_o entail_n by_o which_o the_o court_n may_v have_v conclude_v he_o yet_o he_o be_v leave_v at_o liberty_n to_o make_v out_o a_o entail_n at_o any_o time_n after_o and_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o it_o but_o he_o know_v there_o be_v or_o can_v be_v none_o for_o that_o the_o whole_a estate_n be_v katharine_n inheritance_n and_o she_o outlive_v both_o her_o husband_n and_o her_o elder_a son_n sir_n james_n and_o in_o truth_n do_v no_o act_n to_o entail_v it_o and_o neither_o her_o husband_n or_o son_n without_o she_o can_v entail_v it_o but_o the_o great_a trouble_n of_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o barret_n find_v the_o matter_n upon_o the_o entail_n to_o be_v against_o he_o and_o that_o he_o fail_v in_o his_o expectation_n of_o make_v that_o out_o one_o alderman_n dean_n now_o start_v up_o to_o oppose_v the_o decree_n and_o he_o pretend_v that_o he_o have_v purchase_v the_o estate_n of_o barret_n and_o so_o will_v render_v all_o that_o have_v be_v do_v void_a but_o that_o be_v very_o ill_o do_v of_o he_o for_o he_o know_v of_o the_o suit_n and_o after_o issue_n join_v in_o the_o cause_n have_v as_o be_v pretend_v purchase_v so_o come_v in_o pendent_fw-la light_fw-la and_o so_o the_o judge_n of_o ireland_n have_v certify_v and_o therefore_o no_o consideration_n ought_v to_o be_v have_v of_o he_o and_o the_o plaintiff_n in_o the_o decree_n as_o be_v humble_o hope_v shall_v proceed_v for_o possession_n of_o the_o estate_n have_v be_v hang_v up_o now_o seven_o year_n by_o this_o appeal_n from_o proceed_v on_o the_o decree_n and_o he_o hope_v the_o decree_n shall_v be_v confirm_v have_v be_v so_o solemn_o make_v as_o to_o the_o appellant_n print_v case_n give_v out_o this_o session_n this_o respondent_fw-la conceive_v it_o need_v no_o answer_n the_o main_a of_o it_o be_v a_o scandalous_a libel_n reflect_v on_o his_o grace_n the_o lord_n chancellor_n of_o ireland_n and_o some_o of_o the_o judge_n and_o on_o all_o the_o jury_n he_o therein_o give_v your_o lordship_n some_o lawyer_n opinion_n hope_v thereby_o to_o persuade_v your_o lordship_n into_o a_o good_a opinion_n of_o a_o ill_a cause_n nay_o he_o print_v sir_n william_n jones_n and_o sir_n francis_n pembertons_n opinion_n which_o if_o they_o ever_o do_v give_v be_v upon_o his_o mistake_v the_o case_n for_o the_o same_o person_n have_v give_v their_o opinion_n upon_o the_o
