by_o the_o commissioner_n of_o sewer_n therefore_o it_o be_v first_o to_o be_v consider_v what_o ground_n be_v to_o be_v observe_v in_o repeal_n or_o
do_v not_o repeal_v the_o statute_n of_o mortmain_n in_o my_o opinion_n and_o herein_o i_o shall_v end_v my_o argument_n touch_v decree_n and_o i_o take_v it_o though_o the_o interest_n of_o e._n be_v

traverse_n to_o enter_v into_o these_o part_n of_o my_o law_n i_o think_v it_o fit_a to_o begin_v with_o traverse_n and_o to_o deliver_v my_o opinion_n whether_o such_o plea_n and_o proceed_n be_v to_o be_v admit_v into_o this_o court_n for_o a_o traverse_n be_v a_o plea_n of_o the_o party_n contain_v matter_n to_o the_o contrary_a of_o that_o that_o the_o party_n stand_v accuse_v of_o or_o

it_o be_v say_v that_o if_o a_o presentment_n be_v make_v which_o touch_v a_o man_n freehold_a he_o may_v there_o traverse_v the_o same_o but_o i_o take_v it_o the_o party_n must_v first_o remove_v the_o presentment_n into_o the_o king_n bench_n and_o there_o traverse_v it_o for_o in_o the_o court_n leet_n in_o my_o opinion_n there_o can_v be_v no_o traverse_n take_v or_o try_v no_o more_o where_o the_o presentment_n touch_v freehold_a then_o where_o it_o only_o concern_v a_o personal_a wrong_n therefore_o the_o reason_n allege_v in_o 5_o h._n 7._o can_v be_v the_o true_a cause_n wherefore_o in_o personal_a wrong_n the_o presentment_n can_v be_v traverse_v but_o the_o very_a true_a reason_n therein_o be_v as_o i_o take_v it_o because_o these_o petty_a presentment_n be_v of_o
