STitch against Wisdom Thoughts are not to be uttered an Action upon the case was brought for words viz he did better than many an honest man did For there is many a truer and honester man hang'd and there was a Robery committed whereof I think him to be one and I verily think him to be an Horse-stealer and upon non Cul. pleaded It was found for the Plaintif and pleaded in arrest of Judgement for that it is not expresly affirmed that the Plaintif was one of the Robbers neither that he was a Horse-stealer precisely but that he thought him to be one and thought is free for every man and no slander but this notwithstanding Judgement was given for the Plaintif for thoughts tending to slander may not be uttered 128.

Edw. 4. 22. Edw. 4. Fenner Not like for in debt upon an Obligation it is a duty but otherwise of Rent and it was agreed that it lies against the Assigne in this case 130. HArbin against Barton A Jointenants Lease to begin after his death The case was that two Jointenants for life the one made a Lease for 80 years to begin after his death and after died And whether the Lease is good against the Survivor or not is the question Gawdy said that the Lease was good and cited 2 Eliz. 187. Popham Fenner è contra After this Lease was adjudged a good Lease by all the Judges of England for every Jointenant hath interest during his life and the life of his companion Ewdalls case For it was Ewdalls and Paramores case 31.

Thy Father praedictum quer innuendo is a thief for he stole my sheep The Defendant justified the words and at the Assis●s it was found for the Plaintif and exception was taken in arrest of Judgement For that it is not shewed in the Declaration Substance Form in a Declaration that the words were spoken to the son of the Plaintif Gawdy I think it is good for that the Defendant hath Justified the words spoken of the Plaintif tota Cur. è contra But if the Declaration be uncertain in form yet the bar may make it good But if the Declaration want substance as in this case it doth there the bar cannot make it good 132. RObert Sharples and Grace his Wife Debt brought Debt upon an Obligation against N. Hankinson the Obligation boar date xiij die Octobris An. xxxj Eliz. The Condition was if N. H. did pay viij l. of lawfull money c. in the year of our Lord God 1599. At or upon the 13th day of October which shall next ensue the date herof The Defendant pleaded that the day of payment was not come Gawdy I think the day of payment is the 13th day of October next after the date of the Obligation And that these words in the year of our Lord God 1599. are meerly ●oid Fenner Justice I think that the payment shall be in the year of our Lord 1599. For when a certainty appears allbeit afterwards an incertainty come yet that shall not hurt the certainty but the first certainty shall stand and the incertainty shall be void And in this case the An. Do. 1599. is sufficicient certainty and therfore the subsequent words are void Popham I think that the payment shall be the 13 day of October prox post An. Dom. 1599. For the words are that the Obliger shall pay viij l. of lawfull money of England in the year of our Lord God 1599. And if the payment shall be before this time none may know but by the spirit of Prophecie what money shall be current in England that year before the year come and it is impossible to pay that before and if I am bound to enfeoff before Easter Impossible condition void him that comes first to Pauls upon Michaelmas day next this is void because it is impossible 133.

Wife sued execution and the Debtor upon this release brought an audita querela and adjudged against him because of covin but there is a third matter which makes an end of all for it is found that Sir John Pagginton entred upon Goodale and Goodale re-entred and then the Defendant entring is a Trespassor to the Plaintiff because no title is found for him to make his entrie lawfull Finner I thinke no payment ought to be made to the heir in this case no more than it shall be where a man is bound by obligation to pay a lesser sum to the Obligee his Heires or Executors there payment shall be to the Executor and not to the Heir And I think in this case Conusee by Starute grants over his estate that the payment ought to be to the Feoffee for that that he is to have the losse for by 22. E. 3. 15. E. 3. if a man have exeution by Statute and grant his estate over if the Conusor will pay the money and have the land again it shall be paid to the Grantee and not to the Conusee But I am cleer in opinion that for another cause judgement ought to be given against the Defendant for the words of the condition are sub conditione That if Sir John Pagginton pay 50. l. to the Heires Executors or Administrators of W. That the said Deed of Feoffment Liveri● cannot be void without a reentire and the seizin upon that given shall be void And I think it is no condition for livery of seisin may not be void without a re-entry as 15. H. 7. is but for the matter of the Covin it seems to me that if the Heir may receive the money that shall not prejudice for if he have right to have the money who hath any wrong if he give part of that to another Clinch The payment of the money to the Heire is good for when a man departeth with his estate it is in his dispose to annexe what condition he will and for that when he appointeth to the Heires Executors or Administrators payment to any of them is good And he said it was a good condition Possession a good title against all which have not a better and no fraud for the duty was due to the Heir but for the last matter that is not to be cured for when one title is found for the Defendant and it is found that the outed one that had elder possession his entry is torcious Popham I think the condition is not good for whensoever you will have an estate of inheritance to cease Estates beginning by liverie and otherwise you ought to have apt words to make it cease for an estate which beginneth by liverie may not cease by words but it is otherwise of an estate that beginneth by contract without any liverie and seisin but in the point of fraud I am of opinion with my brother Gawdy Fraudulent recoveries are void although they be by a good title For fraud in our law is not favoured albeit the partie have right for if he that hath right is of covin with one to disseise him that is in possession to the intent that he will recover against him now this recoverie albeit he hath right will doe no good to him but the last makes all without question and so judgement was given for the Plaintiff 112. SAyer brought an Eejectione firme against Hardy A Lease determinable made good for the insensibility of words and a speciall verdict was found to wit that a Lease was made to a widow for 40. yeers sub hac tamen conditione quod si ipsa tam diu sola fuerit inhabitabit in the same house the woman continued sole all her life and dwelt all her time in the said house and dyed within the term the question was whether the term be determined or not and whether the words make a condition or limitation Morgan It is no condition and cited Colthursts case but if it were a condition here is no breach alleged for the death is the Act of God which no man may resist and the Act of God may not prejudice any man Bromly I think the word makes a Limitation and not a Condition and he tited the Lord Barkly's case Gawdie If a Lease be made to a feme sole if she so long live sole and continue unmarried now if she dye the Lease is determined Differences between conditions and limitations and per Litl If an Abbot make a lease for 40. yeers if he so long be Abbot if he after be deposed or dye the lease is determined So is it of a lease made by the Husband if he so long continue Husband of such a woman but in this case the words are insensible and for that it is neither condition nor Limitation vide 3. E. 6. Dyer 65. 66. Popham Clinch It is neither Condition nor limitation but if this word si had been omitted it would have been a condition Or if the words sub conditio●● quod had been omitted it would have been a limitation And if I make a Lease for 40. yeers if the Lessee dwell upon the thing let during the term there if the Lesse dye the Lease is determined for that the point of limitation goeth to all the term but if it be a lease for 40. yeers if the Lessee dwell upon that during his life there if he dye the Lease continueth So they all concluded that the terme yet continueth per quod judicium intretur pro quer 113. IN the case between Walter and Walter for 20. l. per annum to be paid to a Justice of Wales for the Office of the Clerk of Fines Assumpsit in consideration of an Office sold For a Justice of Wales may by Prescription take notice of Fines of Land lying in certain Shires in Wales and this 20 l. per annum was to be payd by the Servant to the Master for the sayd Office for the Clerks Fee was v. s iiij d. of every Fine The Action for not paying the xx l.

THe Sherif returneth in a Writ of Right four Esquires to make the pannel Return and doth not say that there be any Knights it was sayd by the Court that he ought to return them which be and that there be no more 3. WAst was brought for digging in Land Wast and taking away Okes the Defendant pleaded in bar That the Queen by her Letters Patents under the Great Seal of England granted unto him that he might dig for Mines of Cole in the Land and prayed that it might be entred verbatim and a Grant under the Seal of the Exchequor was entred whereupon the Plaintif Demurred Now came Walmisley and would have amended it and by the opinion of the Court he cannot amend it after the Demurrer be entred Demurrer but Judgement shall be given for the Plaintif if he shew no other matter 4. A Man seised of Lands in Fee Devise and sale by Executors Deviseth to his Wife for life the Remainder to his Son in tayl and if his Son dye without issue of his body that then the Land shall be sold by his Executors and maketh two Executors and dyeth the Wife dyeth one Executor dyeth the Sonne dyeth without issue the other Executor selleth the Land and Gawdy the Queens Serjeant moved whether the sale be good or no and it seemeth to him that the sale is good and vouched the Case in 30 Hen. 8. Brook Devise 31. And now lately it was adjudged in the Kings-bench where a man did Devise his Lands in tayl and for default of such issue that the Land shall be sold by his Sonnes-in-law and dieth having five Sonnes-in-law the one dyed the others sold the Land and this was adjudged a good sale Anderson It seemeth the sale is not good for if one make a Letter of Attorney to two to make Livery and Seisin Livery if the one dye the other cannot doe it So if one grant the Office of Stewardship to two the one of them cannot hold Court alone Stewardship And if one of them may sell to what intent was the Statute of 21 Hen. 8. cap. 4. that those which take the Administration may sell Windham The Statute will not prove the case but it seemeth the sale to be naught And there is a difference where one giveth an interest to two and when he giveth but an authority Interest for an interest may survive but an authority cannot Authority Rodes to the same intent and cited M. 4 Eliz. fol. 219. a. 177. 210. 371. 5.

If a man make a Feoffment in Fee by Collusion to the intent to defraud the Lord of the Wardship And after this Feoffee by Collusion make a Feoffment over bona fide Now the Lord is without remedy for the Collusion is gone And in this case there is an ignorance in Sir Walter Sands the which is not willfull and for that it is not punishable Notice But if the other had taken the profits so that the purchaser might have notice there it should be otherwise The ● cause was non constat whether the Grant were before the Statute of 27 Eliz. or not For if it were before then the party shall not answer the mean profits Allso a third matter is ten yeares of the Term was granted for money But when he granted the Residue of the Term and no Consideration expressed Consideration expressed then there shall be no consideration intended And if there were no Consideration given he is not holpen by the Statute For that helpeth a Frandulent Conveyance against purchasers for Consideration given or paid Et non constat that any thing was paid by the Plaintif Allso it appeareth that Sir VValter Sands was in possession at the making of the Statute Allso here the party is charged with a speciall fraud And the other saith that it was made bona fide And this is a good course of pleading without any Traverse per 4 Ed. 4. 24. 3. HUgh Hall brought an Action upon his case for words and declared Slander that where he himself was robbed of divers parcels of Cloth per quendam ignotum and made his integrity and indeavour to apprehend the said thief praedictns tamen defendens praemissorum non ignarus dixit de praefato Hugone viz. Hugh Hall hath received three parcells of his Cloth again of the thief And if I receive any hurt henceforth I will charge him with it And by Judgement of the Court the words are not actionable 4. THe Lady VVilloughby Wife to the late Sir Francis VVilloughby Caveat sued in the Chancery as Administratrix of her said Husband against Percivall Willoughby which had maried one of the Daughters of the said Sir Francis And the Defendant pleaded that before any Administration commited to the said Plaintif he himself put in a Caveat in the Spirituall Court hanging which Caveat she hath attained these Letters of Administration Appeal whereby the Defendant hath appealed 〈◊〉 which appeal is not yet determined for which he demanded Judgement if hanging this appeal the said Plaintif shall be received to sue in this Court as Administratrix And it seemed to Egerton then Lord Keeper of the great Seal that the Defendants plea is good to stay the suit untill the appeal be determined But not to be dismissed out of the Court Appeal Er●●● Difference no more than an excommunication And he said there is difference between an appleal in Spirituall Law and a Writ of Error in our Law For by the purchasing of a Writ of Error the Judgement is not impeached untill the Record be rehearsed But the very bringing of an appeal is a suspension of the first Judgement in the Spirituall Court for the principall matter but not for the costs and for to prove that he cited 2 R. 2. Quare impedit 143. vide 27 H. 6. Gaud. 118. 2 M. 105. Dyer 7 Eliz. 240. 5. IN the Chauncery a speciall Verdict was retorned upon an extent Execution u●on an exte●t of a Remainder And the case was this that there was Tenant for li●e the Remainder in Tail and the Tenant in Remainder in Tail made a Statute Staple and after granted his Remainder And after the Tenant for life died 〈◊〉 Bull 〈◊〉 and the Grantee of the Remainder entered And whether Execution shall be sued of this land upon the said Statute insomuch that the said land was never in Demeasne in the hands of the Co●●so● 〈◊〉 ●ames 〈◊〉 and so not extendable in his hands was the question And Sr. Thomas Egerton Lord Keeper of the great seal said that before that time there had been a difference taken between a Remainder and a Reversion depending upon an estate for life For to a Remainder are no services due nor incident and for that it is termed Seck But a Reversion hath services incident and those may be extended and by consequence the Reversion when it commeth in possession B●t it seemed unto him that all was one for one may charge a Remainder when it happeneth aswell as a Reversion and a Statute is in the nature of a charge Cook the Queenes Attourney said there was no question in the Case for albeit there was some scruple made in 33 H. 8. B. 227. yet the Case is without question for if he in the Remainder make a lease for yeares to commence at a day to come Yet if he grant over his Remainder the Grantee shall hold that charged with his lease And every Statute is a charge Executory By which the said Lord Keeper awarded that there should be a liberate made to the Conusee upon the retorn above 6. OVerton brought an action of Debt against Sydall Debt by a Successor against an Executor after assignment And the case was that Prebendary made a lease for yeares rendring rent and the Lessee died and the Executors of the Lessee assigned over the Term and the Successor of the Prebend brought an action of Debt against the Executors for rent due after that they had assigned the estate over and the opinion of three Justices was that the action would not lye But Popham the chief Justice held the contrary For the Successor is privie to the Contract of the predecessor And so the Executor to the contract of the Testator
say no more now this is no Condition And here all the sense comes in after the words of Covenant and these words are the words of Sir M. B. And for that it seemeth no Condition for if the words had been And it is provided by Sir M. B. there it is clear no Condition But if in a Lease for yeares be words and the Lessee do provide that if the Rent be behind that then the Lessor shall re-enter there I agree that this makes a Conditon And in the case put by my Brother Williams a Lease made provisum est quod non licebit to the Lessor to grant over upon pain of forfeiture there is a good Condition But otherwise it shall be if sub poena forisfacturae were omitted Fenner I think it is a a Condition for all the words put together explain the meaning of the parties as if he had said upon Condition And the Lessee doth Covenant and grant and none will deny but that this is a Conditidition Clinch seemed that it is no Conditon for the words may not be used as a Covenant and allso as a Condition As where a grant is by Deed by words of Dedi concessi confirmavi the Deed may be used as a Grant or confirmation at the Election of the party But it cannot be used in both sorts Popham I think that the Proviso as it is here placed will make a Condition and yet I will agree that a Proviso shall be sometimes taken for a Condition and sometimes for Explanation and sometimes for a Covenant and sometimes for an Exception and sometimes for a Reservation and it is taken for a Condition As if a man Lease Land provided that the Lessee shall not Alien without the Assent of the Lessor sub poena forisfactura here it is a Condition and if I have two Mannors both of them named Dale and I Lease to you my Mannor of Dale Provided that you shall have my Mannor of Dale in the Occupation of I. S. here this Proviso is an Explanation what Mannor you shall have and if a man Lease a house and the Lessee Covenanteth that he will that maintain Provided allwaies that the Lessor is contented to find great Timber here this is a Covenant and if I Lease to you my Messuage in Dale provided that I will have a Chamber my self here this is an Exception of the Chamber and if I make a Lease rendring Rent at such a Feast as I. S. shall name Provided that the Feast of St. Michael shall be one here this Proviso is taken for a Reservation and in our case if the words had been provided allwaies that the Donees shall cut down no Trees and the Lessee doth Covenant he will not fell any here every one will agree that it is a Condition and allso a Covenant And in this case in my opinion this tant amounts Serjeant Williams and Cook Attorney for the Plaintif Atkinson and Tanfield for the Defendant 28. LAssels the Father S●ander brought an Action upon the case against Lassels the Son for words viz. he quendam Thomam Lassels fratrem ejusdem Def. innuend stole a Mare and you innuend querent knowing the same conveyed her into the Fenns to my Brother B. his house Clinch and Gawdy seemed the Action maintainable Fenner econtra 29. A Man was indicted for stealing of a hat and a band and other such things Indictment And the Prisoner said that he was before that time indicted for goods stolen the same day and time and acquitted Gawdy said he may not be severally indicted for goods stolen at one time As if a man steal a dozen of silver spones he may not be indicted for two in one Indictment and for other two in another sic de singulis Clinch accord Fenner Yes truly for it was the case of Thomas Cobham the which was indicted for goods taken in two shipps and acquitted and after condemned for other goods taken at the same time 30. PEarce brought an Action upon the case against Barker Prescription by a Copy-holder and delared how within the Mannor of Dale time out of mind there had been divers Copyholders and during the same time there hath been a usage within the said Mannor That every Copyholder for every Acre of Land shall have Common in such a Wast of the Lords for two Beasts And shewed how the Plaintif is possessed of twenty Acres and by reason of those ought to have Common for forty Beast● And there hath the Defendant being Lessee for years of the same Mannor one Conigray within the same Wast by which the Conies have so digged the ground that his Beasts cannot have Common as they were wont to have Fenner A Copyholder may not prescribe but in right of his Lord but now the Lord pro tempore is party to the action and whether this will alter the case or not I doubt Glanvile Albeit the Copyholder may not prescribe but in right of his Lord yet by way of usage as this case is it hath been adjudged that he may make his title 31. A Ruudell was heretofore arraigned upon an Indictment of willfull Murder for the death of one Parker Indictment and was found not guilty of Murder but guilty of Manslaughter for which he pleaded the generall pardon de 35 El. And the Queens Attorney alleged That in the sayd generall pardon there is an exception of all persons being in prison by the commandement of one of the Privy-counsell and said that the sayd Arundell was committed by the Lord Chamberlain for suspition of the sayd Felony and for the same in prison at the time of the Parliament Commitment and so a person exempted To which it was sayd by the Defendant that long time before the sayd Parliament and after the sayd commitment by the Lord Chamberlain there went out of this Court a Corpus eum causa by force of which he was sent into this Court with the cause of his commitment and was for the sayd offence committed by this Court to the Marshalsey and there was remaining at the time of the Parliament by force of the commitment of this Court and it seemed by the better opinion of the Court if a man be committed by a Privy-counsellor and removed by Habeas corpus and committed by this Court he shall be now sayd imprisoned by commitment of this Court and not of the Privy-counsellor 32. STaugnton brings a Writ of Error against Newcomb upon a Judgement given in Debt in the Common-place Error and the first Error assigned was for that the originall Writ was xx l. and all the mean Process were so likewise but when the Defendant appeared to the Exigent the entry was quod defendens obtulit se in placit● debit● decem librarum where it ought to be xxl. Dodderidge I think it shall be amended for it is the misprision of the Clerk and to prove that he cited 37 Hen. 6. 44. Ed. 3. 18. But upon
pleaded that before the said Feast of St. Mich. the said G. did not tender to him any acquittance Gawdie The Obligation is void for in so much as the Obligee hath not tendred to him any acquittance therefore he hath tolled from him the election whereof he shall not take advantage Fenner è contra for the election is not in the Partie for the making ●o the acquittance resteth in the will of the Obligee and so the Obligor hath no election Popham was of the same opinion 56. IF a Sheriff doe execute his Writ the same day that the Writ is retornable Execution of a writ done the day of the retorn it is a good execution per Yelverton and he cited these cases A Judgement given in a quare impedit 18. Eliz. and the Writ of dammages was executed the same day that it was retornable and this matter pleaded in arrest of judgement and notwithstanding the partie had judgment and if a capias ad satisfaciendum goe forth and the Sheriff take the Partie the same day that the Writ is retornable and send him into the Court who will say that this is not a good execution 57. WOodcock brought an Action of Debt against Heru Assets Executor of I. S. The Defendant pleaded that the Testator in his life time made a Statute Staple to one I. K. in the sum of 1000 l. and above that he hath nothing And if this Plea be good or not is the question Fenner The Plea is good without question Gawdie I have heard divers learned men doubt of that for if the Testator were bound in a Statute to perform Covenants which are not yet broken and it may be they will never be broken and then he shall never be chargeable by this Statute and yet he shall never be compelled to pay any debts which will be a great inconvenience And again I think there will be a greater mischief of the other part for put the case if the Executors doe pay this debt and the Statute is broken after he shall be chargeable by a devastavit of his own proper goods the which will be a greater inconvenience 58. BRough against Dennyson brought an Action for words Slander viz. Thou hast stoln by the high-way side Popham The words are not actionable for it may be taken that he stole upon a man suddenly as the common proverb is that he stole upon me innuendo that he came to me unawares And when a man creepeth up a hedge the common phrase is he stole up the hedge Fenner When the words may have a good construction you shall never construe them to an evill sense And it may be intended he stole a stick under a hedge and these words are not so slanderous that they are actionable 59. A Copy-holder was not upon his Land to pay his rent Forfeiture of a copy-hrld when the Lord was there to demand it And whether this were a forfeiture or not was the question Fenner It is no forfeiture if there were not an express denyall for the non-payment here is but negligence the which is not so hainous an injurie as a willfull denyal for it may be that the Copy-holder being upon the Land hath no money in his purse and therefore it shall be a very hard construction to make it a forfeiture But if he make many such defaults it may be it shall be deemed a forfeiture Popham If this shall not be a forfeiture there will grow great danger to the Lord and the Copy-holders estate was of small account in ancient time and now the strength that they have obtained is but conditionally to wit pay their rent and doing their sevices and if they fail of any of these the Condition is broken and it seemeth cleer if the rent be payable at our Lady day Demand after the day and the Lord doth not come then but after the day to demand the rent there is no forfeiture 60. THe Case was that there was Lessee for life Sir Henry Knevit against Poole interest of Corn. the Remainder for life and the first Lessee for life made a lease for years and this Lessee was put out of possession by a stranger and the stranger sowed the Land and the first Lessee for life dyed and he in remainder for life entred into the Land and leased it to Sir Henry Knevit and who should have the corn was the question Tanfeild argued that Sir H. K. being Lessee of the Tenant for life in remainder shall have the corn for the reason for which a man which hath an uncertain estate shall have the corn is for that he hath manured the land and for that it is reason that he that laboureth should reap the fruit but he said that the stranger that sowed the land shall not have the corn Lease of ground sowed because his estate begun by wrong for if a man make a lease for life of ground sowed and before severance the Lessee dyed now his Executor shall not have the corn Assignment after sowing concess per Popham cont per Gawdy for that they came not of the manurance of their Testator so it is if the Lessee for life sowe the land and assign over his interest and dye now the Assigne shall not have the corn cansa qua supra and for this reason in our case neither the Executors of the first Tenant for life nor the Lessee of the first Tenant for life shall have the corn here for that it comes not by their manurance and the stranger which sowed them he shall not have them Vncertainty necessarie unnecessary difference for albeit he manured the land and howbeit his estate was defeasable upon an uncertainty yet he was a wrong doer and the incertainty of his estate came by his own wrong for which the law will never give any favour to him and for that when he in remainder for life entreth it seemeth that he shall have the corn for he hath right to the possession and the corn are growing upon the soile and by consequence are belonging to the owner of the soile but it hath been said that here there was no trespasse done to him in remainder and for that he shall never have the corn Sir as to that I say if an Abator after the death of the Ancestor enter and sowe the land Abator soweth and after the right heire enter in this case the heire shall have the corn and yet no trespasse was made to him and it hath been adjudged in this Court where a man devised land sowed to one for life and after his decease the remainder to another for life and the first Tenant entred and dyed before severance and he in remainder entred that there he in remainder shall have the corn and by consequence the same Law shall be in our case Godfrey è contra and he argued that the Lessee for yeers Devise of land sowne of the first Lessee for life
case the partie shall have a consultation Popham The one of the parties is a man temporall and so was it not in your case Sic nota that by the Spirituall law the Vicar shall have Tithes of Saffron of land newly sown with Saffron albeithat before the Parson had the Tith of that land being sowen with Corn. 76. NOta that by the course of the Kings-bench a man may have Oyer of the deed after imparlance Oyer of a deed but not in the Common place Q. 77. BEckford brought an ejectione firme against Parnecote Devise before purchas● and the Case upon the speciall Verdict was found to be this That one Parsons was seised of certain land in A. and had issue four Daughters viz. Barbera Johan E. and Mary and made his Will in writing And by the same Will he devised all his land in Aldeworth to Barbera and Johan two of his daughters and made them two his Executors and after he purchased other land in Aldworth and a stranger was desirous to purchase this land of him newly purchased And he said that that land should goe with the residue of his land to his Executors as his other land should go After the said Testator made a Codicill and caused it to be annexed to his Will But the Codicill was of other things and mentioned nothing of this land and whether this new purchased land shall pass by the Will without new publication of the Will for this land was the question Moor I think that the land newly purchased shall pass and to prove that he said that the reason in Bretts case 340. Com. for which land newly purchased shall not pass is by reason that there is no manner of new publication but in our case there is new publication and in Trivillians case 4 M. 143. where cestui quae use made a Will And then the Statute of 27 H. 8. of uses came now this Will was comptrouled The Statute of Wills but by a new publication it may be made good and he cited 44. E. 3. 12. and 44 Ass 36. Atkinson è contra For this Will ought to be warranted by the Statute otherwise it is not good and the Statute doth not enable him which hath no land at the time of the devise to devise land and the words of the Statute manifest this which are Where any person or persons having any land holden c. So by the express words Want of apt words if he have no lands at the time of the Devise he may not Devise as appears plainly in Brets case allso it appears that words out of a Will will never make that to pass which was intended before and with that agreeth the Lord Cheney his case and the case of Downhall and Catesby lately adjudged and in this case allbeit the Testator allowed this Will after to be his Will Things not expressed in the Wil must be expressed in the publication yet this shall never make this land newly purchased to pass without express publication of this land Clinch Justice sayd it seemed to him that the land newly purchased shall pass for after that he had made his last purchase the Testator heard the Will read and by that he devised all his lands in Aldworth and then knew that the land newly purchased lay in Aldworth and upon reading of the Will he allowed it and so I think that the new purchased land shall pass as well as the other and that this allowance upon the reading is a new publication Gawdy Justice è contra For if I make my Will and by that devise all my land in Dale and after I purchase other land there and one afterwards shews me the Will and demands of me if it shall be my Will and I answer it shall I say that this land newly purchased shall not pass Hearing and allowance is a publication and in this case howbeit that the reading of the Testament or annexing of the Codicill be a new publication yet it doth not manifest the intent to be that more shall pass by that than he intended at the first and allso the new reading of the Will and the annexing of the Codicill may not properly be termed a new publication as this case is Where there it no controlment there needeth no new publication for here was not any Controlment and for that the Will needs not any new publication by which it seemeth that without any express publication for this land newly purchased this land shall not pass for the things which are found to be done are but allowances and no new publications 78. HArecourt brought a Writ of Error upon a Judgment given in the Common-place Amendment and assigned for Error for that the Judgement was that the now Defendant should recover xx l. assessed to him per Jnr. nec non x l. bassessed to him hic per Jur. where it ought to be per Cur. Yelverton prayed that it might be amended for that the Record in the Common-place was right and the Misprision which made this Error was in the Clerk which certified the Record and the opinion of the Conrt was that if it were so it should be amended and therefore they sayd they would have the Record it self brought out of the Common-place thither to be viewed whether it were so or not The Record it self shall not be sent out of the Court. Worley Clerk The Justices of the Common-place will not suffer the Record to be brought hither Popham That is no new President that the Record shall be brought hither for I have seen it done before this time But after in truth the Justices of the Common-place would not send their Record into the Kings-bench and therefore Cook the Queens Attorney prayed that it might be amended Popham It may not be amended for that I have spoken with the Justices of the Common place and they say that the Record was at the first as it was certified viz. Iur. pro. Cur. and after the Record was certified it was amended by a Clerk without any Warrant Cook Allbeit that it was so yet under Correction it is amendable for it is the misprission but of a Clerk and that of a Letter onely viz. of I. for this letter C. for the word is written Jur. short where it ought to have been Cur No amendment in ●●int of Judgement and so amendable by the Statute of 8 Hen. 6. Curta è contra for it is parcell of the Judgement and you never saw the Judgement of the Court amended for which it cannot be amended here 79. EAst Executor of I. S. brought an Action upon the case of finding and Converting of certain goods Trover against Newman And upon not guilty pleaded the Jury found this speciall Verdict viz. That the Testator was possessed of divers goods and them lost and the Defendant found them And knowing them to be the goods of the Testator upon demand denied to deliver them And
dyed and if the estate of Tho. was determined by the death of Nich. was the question Johnson There are two points in the case the first if by this word Assignee an Occupant shall have the land and I think he shall not And the second point is when a lease is made to one and his Assignees for his own life and the lives of two others if now his own life confound the other two lives for that that it is greater to the Lessee than the other two lives and he said the Lessee hath no estate but for his own life and when he dyed the state is determined and to prove that he cited the opinion of Knightley in 28 Hen. 8. 10. Where he saith if a lease be made to one pur auter vie without impeachment of Wast the remainder to him for his own life that now he is punishable of Wast for that that when the remainder is limited unto him for his own life Wast against the surviving Joyntenant this drowneth the estate pur auter vie which was in him before And by 3 Edw. 3. If a lease be made to two for their lives without impeachment of Wast and one of them purchase the Fee simple and dye now his heir shall have Wast against the Survivor And I have heard that this was the case of the Lord Aburgaveney for a house in Warwick lane Cook è contra And the case is no more but that a lease is made to one and his Assignes for his own life Remainder for years to the tenant for life and for the lives of two others and I think that all may stand together for a man may have an estate for his own life the remainder for yeares and both may stand together in him simul semel for that that albeit that the Lessee may not have that during his own life yet he may dispose of that and by that means shall have the benefit and so in this case and allso an estate pur auter vie shall be in esse in the Lessee for the benefit of the Occupant and the inconveniencies shall be exceeding many in this case if the estate doth not endure for all their lifes for the Statute of 32 H. 8. inableth Tenant in tayl to make leases for 3 lives or 21 years and usually Tenants in tayl make such leases as these be and for that the generality of the case ought greatly to be regarded and there was a case adjudged in the Common place between Chambers and Gostock Chambers against Gostock where a lease was made to two for their lives and the life of a stranger and one of the Lessees dyed and the Survivor granted the land for his life and the life of the stranger Burdels case and it was no forfeiture and allso it was Burdels case in the Common-place 32 Eliz. where a lease was to him for his own life and the lives of two others and a good lease for all their lives Occupant And for the point of the Occupant there is no question but that the state of him that first enters is better than the state of him that enters under the state of the Lessor Gawdy The cases put by Mr. Johnson are not like to the case in question The greater estate preceding the less both may stand and I will agree them for here the greater estate precedeth the lesser I hold that a lease made to one for his life the remainder to him for anothers life is good for he may it grant over and so I think in this case that so long as any of the lives remain living that the estate remains Fenner I am of the same opinion for I think that the state pur auter vies is in the party to dispose at his pleasure so Judgment was given for the Defendant 87. HArding brought an Action of Trover of goods against Sh●rman Visne and declared of a Trover at D. in the County of Hunt The Defendant pleaded that he bought the goods of one I. S. at Roiston in the County of Hertford in open Market and demanded Judgement The Plaintif replied that the Defendant bought the same goods of the said I. S. at D. aforesaid in the County of Huntington by fraud and Covin And after bought them again at Roiston as the Defendant supposeth the Defendant rejoines that he bought the same goods bona fide at Roiston Absque hoc that he bought them by fraud apud D. in Com. Hunt Glanvile pleaded in arrest of Judgement that the Visne ought to be of both Counties Gawdy seemeth to agree but for that that Clinch and Fenner held strongly that the Visne was well awarded in one of the Counties therefore Gawdy gave Judgement for the Plaintif for by this speciall Traverse the buying at Roiston shall not come in question 88. PAyton being High-Sherif Keep harmless brought Debt upon an Obligation against his under-Sherif and the Condition was to perform all Covenants in a pair of Indentures conteined and one Covenant was that the under-sherif shall keep all the Prisoners committed to him untill they be delivered by the Law and allso to save Mr. Payton harmless of all escapes made by the said Prisoners And the Defendant pleaded performance of all Covenants Godfry The Plea is not good for one part is in the Affirmative and the other in the Negative By which the Defendant ought to plead that the Plaintif non fuit damnifieatus and so was the opinion of the Court by which day was given to the De●endant to amend his plea. 89. A Man brought an Action of Trespass for entring into an house and breaking of his close in Dale Variance between the declaration and the new assignment or the title of the Plaintif The Defendant said that the said house and close in which the Trespass is supposed to be done conteins twenty Acres and is at the time of the Trespass supposed was his Freehold And the Plaintif replyed quod locus clausa in quo supponitur transgressio est anum messuagium and makes him a Title to it To which the Defendant pleaded non Cul. And it was found for the Plaintif and for that that the Plaintif by his Replication made to him Title but to a messuage and doth not maintain his Declaration which was for the messuage and the close therefore it was awarded quod querens nihil capiat per Billam sed quare if this do not amount to a discontinuance of the close onely and so helped by the Verdict 90. THomas Allen brought a Writ of Debt against William Abraham upon an Obligation bearing date in October Counterbond for an Obligation allready forfeited The Condition was that whereas the sayd Thomas Allen at the request of the above bounden William Abraham standeth bound together with the sayd William unto one J. S. in an Obligation for the true payment of 11. l. the 15. day of May the which May was before the
as primo Mar. 100 is Then if the Sherif inquire of one term and sell another as our case is the term sold was never found by our Inquisition and for that the sale not good quod Fenner concessit yet the Lord Popham sayd that if it had been found by the Inquistion generally that he is possessed of such land for term of divers years adhuc ventur which they have prised to such a sum this had been good insomuch as they have not any means to come to the knowledge of the certainty of the term But when by Inquiry a Term in particular is found Que estate refers as well to the estate as to the person they may not vary from that and sell another and he sayd that these words Cujus statum Henrici Fry shall be referred as well to the state precedent found as to the person of Fry And so is the common intendment in pleading of a que estate And he said to Mr. Tanfield that if he had taken any note of their first opinions that he should raze that out of his Book again and after the parties agreed in Court that Hauger should give to Fry 200 Marks more for his term and then Fry should make assurance to him of the term for confirmation of the sale 106. NOta per Cook Attorney Generall Difference between Feoffmen● to an use and covenant to raise an use If a man Covenant in consideration of naturall love to his son to stand seised of certain Land to the use of himself for life the Remainder to the same son in Fee with a Proviso that it shall be lawfull for himself to make Leases for 21 years or three lives Now he may not make such Leases notwithstanding this Proviso being by way of Covenant to raise the use And so it hath been resolved Contra Peradventure if it were by way of Feoffment to uses After Mr. Walter said that now lately in one Sharingtons case it was adjudged in this Court upon a Writ of Error That if a man Covenant with his Eldest son in consideration of naturall love A proviso with speciall limita●n good to stand seised to the use of himself for life the remainder to his Eldest Son in tail with Proviso that he himself might make Leases to his second son or to any other of his kindred for 21 years or 3 lives and he made Leases to him accordingly this was holden good for they to whom the Leases are made are within the consideration to wit of the blood and for that the use may well rise to maintain those Leases But if the Proviso had been to make Leases to any man howbeit that after he made Leases by force of that to his second son These Leases are void for they are not within the consideration of the Covenant by Intendment of Law at the first for the Law at the beginning adjudged the Proviso meerly void quod nota 107. RObinson brought Debt upon an Obligation against May Counterbond the Condition was that the Defendant should discharge or save harmless the Plaintif of an Obligation for which the Plaintif as surety with the now Defendant was bound to I. S. The Defendant by way of bar pleaded Vsury that the Obligation made to I. S. by him and the Plaintif was upon a corrupt and usurious bargain and pleaded the Statute of Usury and concluded sic non da●●ificatus It was moved at the bar that this was no plea for the Condition is that the Defendant shall discharge or save harmless c. And the Plaintif was impleaded by I. S. for that debt and hath paid the condemnation Tanfield Contra For if this shall not be allowed for a good plea the Statute of usury will be utterly defeated For by a compact between the surety and the Usurer the surety shall pay the usurer and the surety by that counterbond shall have double recompence against the Principall which will be mischievous But the whole Court held the plea not good sed quare 108. HObbs sued an Audita querela in the Kings Bench against Tedcastle Audita querela for a speciall bail and upon a demurer the case was recited by Moor of the Temple to be this Tedcastle sued a bill of debt in this Court against one Hallaway in Custodia Marescali which found bail the said Hobbs and an another which entred bail according to the common course of bail And after Hallaway was condemned in the said Action and then the said Hallaway died without paying the condemnation or rendring his body to Prison for which a scire facias was sued against the bail and upon two nihils retorned Execution was awarded against them Whereupon they sued this Audita querela supposing that the death of Hallaway hath discharged the bail Moor argued for the Plaintif that the bail ought to be discharged upon the matter for Hallaway had Election to discharge the bail by paying the condemnation or rendring of his body to Prison Now by the Act of God it becomes impossible to perform the one to wit to yield his body to prison And therefore the Law will discharge him of the other and by consequence his bail And that he proved by Arundells case 9 Eliz. 262. 6. 7 Eliz. 231. Sir Edw. Walgraves case Popham Quemodo constat here but that there was convenient time after the Judgement to perform the one or the other Kemp Secondary The course is allwaies here after Judgement to award a Capias against the Defendant and if upon that he do not render himself or pay the condemnation then to sue Execution against the bail and not before but here there was never any Capias awarded against Hallaway the Defendant in his life time Popham Gawdy Fenner This seemeth very reasonable not to sue Execution against the bail untill a default be retorned against the Principall and the recognisance of the bail which is that the Principall shall yield himself c. is intended to be upon Process awarded against him But no Process was awarded against him in his life and now it is impossible that he should yield himself to Prison being dead Iudgement and therefore the bail is discharged And so they awarded Judgement for the Plaintif in the Audita querela 109. MAtures brought an Action of Covenant against Westwood And the case was such Covenant for an assignee of a reversion for years Adams Lessee for 20 years made a Lease for 10 years of the same Land to Bowes by indenture whereby Bowes did Covenant at the end of his Term of ten years to avoid and to leave peaceable possession to Adams his Executors or Assignes Adams granted over his Reversion to Matures the now Plaintif The question is if the Plaintif by the Statute of 32 Hen. 8. cap 34. as Assignee may maintain an Action of Covenant for his Covenant broken or not Nota that this case was moved divers times And first it was moved if
the Statute 134. NOta per Cook Attorney Generall Distinct grants that the Lord Keep 〈◊〉 that is was of Counsell in a case inter Harlakenden and A. where it was adjudged that if a man make a Lesse for years of Land excepting the Wood and after the Leasor grants the Trees to the Lessee and the Lessee assigned over the Land to another not making any mention of the Trees now the Trees shall not pass to the Assignee as annexed to the Land for the trees and Land are not conjoined for the Lessee had severall interests in them by severall Grants 135. THomas against King Ejectment and the Title of the Land was between Sir Hugh Portman and Morgan And the Ejectment was supposed to be of 100. Acres of Land in Dale Sale and the Jury found the Defendant guilty of 10 Acres but did not shew in what Town they lay whereupon Haris Serjeant moved in arrest of Judgement for that it doth not appear where the Sherif may put the Plaintif in Possession Et non allocatur for the party at his perill ought to shew unto the Plaintiff the right land for which Judgement was given for the Plaintif 136. O Land against Bardwick and the case was this that a woman being possessed of Coppihold land for her Widowes estate sowed the land Forfeiture of a particular tenant and after took the Plaintif to Husband and the Defendant being Lord of the Mannor entred and took the Corn and the Husband brought an action of Trespass Clinch I think the Woman shall not have the corn Lease by Tenant for life but if the Wife had Leased the Land and the Lessee had sown it and after the Wife had maried and the Lord had entred yet the Lessee shall have the Corn. But in the case at bar the Woman her self is the cause of the Determination of her estate for she committeth the Act and therefore shall not have the Corn no more Forfeiture than if Lessee for life sow the Land and after commit forfeiture and the Lessor enter in this case the Lessor shall have the Corn. Fenner At the first the State of the Woman was certain viz. for her life but yet determinable by Limitation if she mary And if a man which hath an Estate determinable by Limitation sow the ground and before severance the Limitation endeth the state yet the party shall have the Corn which he hath sown And in the case at the bar there is no Forfeiture committed which gives course of Entry nor no dishinheritance or wrong made to the Lord as in the case where Tenant for life after his sowing commits forfeiture and if a man enter for breach of a Condition Entry for condition broken he shall have the Corn and not he that sowed the same for that his entry over-reacheth the state of the other but in this case the entry of the Lord doth not over●ach the Title of the Woman for he shall take that from the time that the Limitation endeth the Estate and not by any relation before For the Act of the Woman is Lawfull and therefore no reason he shall lose the Corn Popham Chief Justice It is cleare Forfeiture if Tenant for life sow and after commit a Forfeiture And the Lessor enter he shall have the Corne 〈◊〉 the like is it if the Lessee after the sowing surrender his Term the Lessor Surrender or he to whom the Surrender was made shall have the corn but if Tenant for life make a lease for yeares Lease by Tenant for life and after commit a Forfeiture and the Lessor enter now the Lessee shall have the Corn and in the case at bar if the woman had Leased for yeares and the Lessee had sowed the land and after she had taken Husband now the Lessee and not the Lord shall have the corn for the act of the Woman shall not prejudice a third person but when she her self is the party Knowledge and hath knowledge at the time of the sowing what acts will determine●er estate then is it reason if she by her own act will determine her estate that she shall lose the Corn For if Lessee for life sow the land Lessee praies in aid and after pray in aid of a Stranger now if the Lessor enter he shall have the Corn And so if Tenant at Will sow the Land Tenant at will determines his own Will and after determine his own Will the Lessor shall have the Corn but otherwise it is if the state be determined by the act of law or of a third person so that no folly was in him that sowed Fenner If the Husband and Wife were Lessees during the coverture Determination by the act of the Law of a third perso● and after the Husband sowes the land and then the Husband and Wife are divorced yet the Husband shall have the Corn for that the Husband at the time of the sowing had no knowledge of the Act which determined his interest Divorce So in this case the Woman at the time of the sowing did not know of the future Act which determined her interest and therefore no rason she should lose the Corn for the Corn is a Chattell in her Grant for if she had either granted them or been outlawed after the sowing and then had taken a Husband Now the Queen in the case of the outlary or the Grantee in the other case and not the Lessor Outlary shall have the Corn. Popham I will agree the case of the divorce to be good Law For that is not meerly the Act of the party but allso of the Court but in the case at bar the taking of the Husband is the Voluntary Act of the Woman per que And after Judgement was given against the Husband which was the Plaintif 137. A Scough brought a Writ of Error against Hollingworth upon a Judgement given in the Common place in a Writ of Debt brought upon a Statute Merchant Statute Merchant And the case was that Ascough came before the Maior of Lincoln and put his seal to the same Statute and the Kings seal was also put thereunto but one part did not remain with the Maior according to the Statute of Acton Burnell And it was adiudged a good Obligation against the Partie albeit it is no Statute Godfrey I think the Judgement ought to be affirmed and he cited 20. E. 3. accompt 79. And it is clear that a thing may be void to one intent and good to another by 10. Eliz. but Popham and Fenner were of opinion that it was hard to make it an Obligation for in every contract the intent of the parties is to be respected Intent in every contract And here the intent of the parties war to make it a Statute for the Kings seal is put to it and a Statute needs no deliverie butan Obligation ought to be delivered otherwise it is not good
