by my Neighbours means shall be in the same degree as my Neighbours Act for what he does shall be to his own prejudice And upon the Iudgment affirmed the Attorney of the said Hayes made the like Writ of Habere facias seisinam directed to the Sheriffs of London as was done in the Common Pleas wherupon it was affirmed to the Court in Hillary Term next ensuing that the Sheriffs had made their execution by the quantity of the feet comprised in the writ and that in the doing of it there was pulled down the part of another house of the said Allen which was erected two feet upon the land of the said Anne and prayed remedy for it and that this Habere facias seisinam varying from the thing recovered might not be filed To which it was said that this quantity of feet was but a Surplusage in the Writ and that the Writ before this was sufficient and warranted by the Verdict and judgment Sherrey versus Richardson 5. IN Debt upon an Obligation of 50 l. by Lawrence Sherrey against Arnold Richardson the case was this 16 Martii 33 Eliz. the said Richardson was bound to Sherrey in 50 l. with condition to stand to and observe the Arbitrement Award order rule finall end and judgment of one Walter Bolton and Edward Price Arbitrators indifferently elected to arbitrate award and judge of and for all Actions Suits Quarrels and Demands whatsoever betwixt them untill the date of the Obligation so that it be made and done in writing under their hands and Seals ready to be delivered to the parties at or before the last day of this instant month of April and the said Arbitrators the last day of April 33 Eliz. made an Arbitrement in writing under their hands and Seals that within four daies next ensuing the award either of the said parties shall release each to other all Actions Suits and Demands before the date of the said Obligation with this Proviso that if either of the said parties shall be discontented with the said Award or any part of it within twenty daies after the Award that then upon the payment of 10 s. by the party which thinks himself agrieved with the Award to the other within the twenty daies the Award shall be void either of them to be at liberty against the other as before the Award and by the whole Court if the Award shall be said made within the time comprised in the O●ligation where the Proviso had been to be performed after the four daies it had been good and a finall Award because that the Proviso to make the Award void after the time limited for making of Releases is repugnant to that which was to be executed before to wit that either of them shall release each to other vvithin four daies for every Avvard ought to be reasonable and indifferent betvvixt the parties in all appearance and so that the one part of it ought not to impugn or encounter the other and here to what purpose shall it be to make the Award void and to put out at liberty against the other when they have made Releases each to other and vvhat indifferenty or reason should there be that vvhen one hath released the other may dissolve the Arbitrement by the Proviso and hovv may the Obligation vvhich had been once forfeited by the not making of the Release vvithin the four daies be helped and become not forfeited by dissolving of the Arbitrement by the Proviso But by Popham Gawdy and Clench if the Releases had been limited to have deen made at a day to come as ten daies after and that the Proviso had been to have been performed in the mean time before these ten daies then the Avvard had been void because they had not pursued the submission for it vvas no finall end of the controversie in as much as it is not certain by reason of the Condition whether it shall be an end or not But it seems to Popham that the Award here is not made within the time that it ought to have been made by the Condition for the Obligation is alledged to be made the 16 of March 33 Eliz. and then no month can be the instant month but March and therfore this word April is but a meer negation and if it should not be so to what April shall it refer for there is no matter to guide it more to one April then another but the generall intendment which happily shall guide it to the next April for avaiding of incertainty if it had not been for the words this instant moneth and the words within this moneth shall not be said to be frivolous vain where they may have a good and plain intendment but rather the word April which is repugnant to it shall be said to be void and a meer negation but it seems to him that as the Award is the case being that at any time within 20 daies after the Award made the one or the other disliking the Award might have been defeated upon the payment of 10 s. if the 10 s. had been paid within four daies as it might have been and before the Releases made the party by the intent of the Award had not been bound to have made the Releases because that by it within the time before the Releases made the Arbitrement shall be defeated by the Condition if it had been a good Award and therfore it shall not be said to be a finall Award at the time of the Award made because that instantly upon it before the four daies are passed there was power in the said parties to have defeated the Award upon the payment of the said 10 s. and therfore it seems to himself also that the Award was void and by consequence the Plaintiff shall be barred 6. KIng Richard the 3. by his Letters Patents granted to the Burgesses of Glocester and to their Successors that the Town of Glocester c. shall be a County of it self several and distinct from the County of Glocester for ever and no part of that County and shall be called the County of the Town of Glocester neverthelesse saving and reserving to himself and his Heirs that the Iustices of Assise in the County of Glocester the Iustices of Goal-delivery and of the Peace in holding of their Sessions and also the Sheriff of the County of Glocester in holding of his County-Courts and every of them may freely enter into the said Town and keep the said Sessions and County-Courts of and for any thing and matter arising out of the said County of the Town aforesaid and within the said County of Glocester as before time they had accustomed to hold them there the said Grant or any other thing notwithstanding And grants further that they shall have a Major two Sheriffs and one Recorder within the same County of the Town of Glocester and that the Ministers of the Sheriff of the County shall not afterwards enter to do or execute any thing

there which to their Office of Sheriff appertaineth or any waies to intermeddle with it except only for the Sheriff of the County of Glocester to hold their County-Courts as is aforesaid And that the Major Aldermen of the said Town for the time being their Successors having power and authority to enquire here determine all things which Iustices of P. or Iustices assigned to hear determine Trespasses and Misdemeanors within the County of Glocest before this time have made or exercised And that the Iustices of Peace of him his Heirs or Successors within the said County of Glocester should not intermeddle with the things or causes which belong to the Iustices of Peace within the said Town c. And upon this Charter divers things were moved by Sir William Periam Knight now chief Baron of the Exchequer before his going into the Circuit 1. Whether by the saving of the Charter they have sufficient power reserved to them to fit within the Town being now exempted from the said Town of Glocester to enquire there of the Felonies done in the said County of Glocester And so for the Assises and Nisi prius taken there of things made in the County of Glocester Then if the the Sheriffs may execute their Warrants made there at the time of the Assises or Goal-delivery notwithstanding the exemption given to them by the Patent And it was agreed by all the Justices that the saving in the Patent is sufficient for the Iustices of Assise and Goal-delivery to sit there for the things which happen within the County of Glocester for as the King may by his Letters Patents make a County and exempt this from any other County so may he in the making of it save and except to him and his Successors such part of the Iurisdiction or priviledge which the other County from which it is exempted had in it before As in divers places of the Realm the Goal of a Town which is a County of it self or which is a place priviledged from the County is the Goal of the County and the place where the Assises or Goal-delivery is holden is within the County of the Town and yet serve also for the County at large as in the Sessions Hall at Newgate which serves as well for the County of Middlesex as for London and yet it stands in London but by usage it hath alwaies been so and nothing can be well prescribed unto by usage which cannot have a lawfull beginning by Award or Grant and this by the division of London from Middlesex at the beginning might be so And so the Goal of Bury c. And although that the words are saving to him and his Heirs yet by the word Heirs it shall be taken for a perpetual saving which shall go to his Successors which is the Queen and the rather because it is a saving for Iustice to be done to the Subjects which shall be taken as largely as it can be And albeit the expresse saving for the Sheriff is but for to hold his turn yet in as much as the authority of the Iustices of Assise and Goal-delivery in holding their Sessions as before was accustomed is saved it is Included in it that all which appertain to the execution of this Service is also saved or otherwise the saving shall be to little purpose And therfore that the Sheriff or other Minister made by the authority of these Courts is well made there and warranted by the Charter And wee ought the rather to make such exposition of the Charter because it hath been alwaies after the Charter so put in execution by all the Iustices of Assise But it seems that by this Commision for the County a thing which happens in the Town cannot be determined albeit it be Felony commited in the Hall during the Sessions but by a Commission for the Towne it may 7.

Sheriff of another County then where the occasion brought or by Warrant of a Iustice of Peace of another County for matter of the Peace and the like which are not like to the case of Partridge who was be●ten in the County of Glocester by Sir Henry Pole for which he brought his Action in London And Sir Hen. Pole would have justified by Assault of the Plaintiff in the County of Glocester with a tr●verse that he was not guilty in London But it was then ruled in this Court that he could not do it to oust the Plaintiff to sue in London but in such a case he might have alledged that the Assault was done in London because it was also a thing transitory of which they shall take notice there and so help himself if the matter had been true But in the case at the Bar if the speciall matter alledged in the forraign County be false as here the Plaintiff may maintain his Action and traverse the special matter alledged by the Defendant And so a traverse in such a case may be upon a Traverse when falsity is used to oust the Plaintiff of that benefit which the Law gives him Hillary Term 38 Eliz.
