to the Polls Challenge to the Array is where Exception is taken to the whole number as impannelled partially Challenge to or by the Poll is where Exception is taken to any one or more as not indifferent Challenge to the Iurors is also divided into challenge principal and challenge for cause that is upon cause or reason Challenge principal or peremptory is that which the Law allows without cause alledged or Examination as a Prisoner at the Bar arraigned upon Felony may peremptorily challenge to the number of twenty one after another of the Iury impanuelled upon him not alledging any cause at all but his own dislike and they shall be discharged and new put into their places and this is in favor of life But in the case of High Treason no peremptory challenge is allowed See 25 H. 8. cap. 3. And a difference may be observed between challenge principal and challenge peremptory because challenge peremptory seems only to be used in matters Criminal and meerly without any cause alledged more than only the Prisoner's fansie Stamf. Pl. Cor. fol. 124. and principal for the most part in Civil Actions and with the namning of some Exception which being found true the Law presently allows As for example if any party saith that one of the Iurors is the Son Brother Cousin or Tenant to the other party or married to his daughter this is a good and strong Exception if it be true without farther examination of the credit of the party challenged And of how large extent this Challenge of Kindred is does well appear in Plow fol. 425. Also in the Plea of the death of any man and in every Action real and also in every Action personal where the debt or damages amounts to 40 marks it is a good challenge to any of the Iury impanelled That he cannot dispend forty shillings by the year of his own Free-hold An. 11 H. 7. cap. 21. Challenge upon reason or cause is when the party alledges any such Exception against one or more of the Iurors which is not forthwith sufficient upon acknowledgment of the truth thereof but rather arbitrable and consiverable by the rest of the Iurors as if the son of the Iuror had married the daughter of the adverse party This Challenge by cause seems to be termed by Kitch fo 92.

That Iustices of Peace at their Quarter Sessions should have authority to enquire as well by the Oaths of 12 men as by the information given to them by any person or persons of the defaults contempts and offences committed against the Laws and Statutes made and provided touching Champerty Maintenance c. and to hear and determine the said faults and offences Champertors are they that move Pleas and Suits or cause to be moved by their own or oothers procurement and sue them at their own costs to have part of the Lands or gains in variance See the Stat.

Chance-medley CHance medley is when a man without any evil intent doth a lawful thing or that is not prohibited by Law and yet another is slain or comes to his death thereby as if a man casts a stone which hits a man or woman who after dies thereof or if a man shoots an arrow and another that passes by is killed and such like this manner of killing is Man-slaughter by misadventure or Chance-medley for which the offendor shall have his pardon of course as appears by the Statute of 6 E. 1. c. 9. and he shall forfeit his goods in such manner as he that kills a man in his own defence But in this case it is to be considered whether he that commits this Man-slaughter by Chance-medley was in doing a lawfull thing for if the act was unlawfull as to fight at Barriers or run at Tilt without the Kings commandment or cast stones in a High-way where men usually pass or shoot arrows in a Market-place or such like whereby a man is killed in all these cases it is Felony at least that is Manssaughter if not Murther for the Offendor being doing an unlawful act of his own will the Law shall construe his meaning and will herein by the success of the act As if two are fighting together and a third man comes to part them and is killed by one of the two without any malice forethought or evil intent in him that killed the man yet this is Murther in him and not Man-slaughter by Chance-medley or Misadventure because they two that fought together were in doing an unlawful act And if they were met with prepensed malice the one intending to kill the other then it is Murther in them both Chancery CHancery is a Court of Law at Westminster for Suits for and against Attorneys Clerks and Officers of this Court this part of it and also the intelments of Deeds Patents is of Record And there is also a Court for Equity and their proceedings therein are entred in English and the Lord Chancellor or Keeper of the great Seal and Master of the Rolls are Iudges and the Writs are returnable there Coram Rege in Cancellaria Co. 4.

Chapiter CHapiter is a Summary or content of all such matters as are enquirable before Iustices in Eyre Iustices of Assise or of the Peace in their Sessions so it is used 3 E. 1. c. 27. in these words And that no Clerk of any Iustice Escheator or Commissioner in Eyre shall take any thing for delivery of Chapiters but only Clerks of Iustices in their Circuits and likewise 13 E. 1. c. 10. in these words And when the time comes the Sheriff shall certifie the Chapiters before the Iustices in Eyre how many Writs he hath Also Britton uses it
in the same signification cap. 3. And at this day Chapiters are called Articles for the most part and are delivered as well by the mouth of the Iustice in his Charge as by the Clerks in writing to the Enquest where in ancient time they were after an Exhortation given by the Iustices for the observation of the Laws of the Kings peace first read distinctly and openly in the full Court and then delivered in writing to the grand Enquest An example of these Chapiters there is in the Book of Assises fol. 138. pla 44. Chaplain CHaplain is he that performs Divine Service in a Chappel and therefore is commonly used for him that depends upon the King or other man of worth for the instruction of him and his Family the reading of Prayers and Preaching in his private house where usually they have a Chappel for that purpose And for that they are retained by Letters under the Seal of their Patron and thereby by intendment are to be resident with them the Law hath given liberty for their Non-residency upon their Benefices If an Earl or Baron retains a Chaplain and before his advancement is attainted of Treason there the Retainer is determined and after the Attainder such Chaplain cannot take a second Benefice because he that is attainted is by his Attainder a dead person in Law What and how many Chaplains Noblemen and others may respectively retain the Statute of 21 H. 8. c. 3. doth well declare The wife of a Baron during the Coverture cannot retain a Chaplain yet when a Baronnesse Dowager retains one or two according to the Proviso of the said Statute the Retainer is the principal matter and as long as the Retainer is in force and the Baronness continues a Baronness the Chaplains may well take two Benefices by the express letter of the Statute for it suffices if at the time of the Retainer the Baronness were a widow And herein this rule is to be observed of a woman that attains Nobility by Marriage as by marriage of a Duke Earl or Baron c. for in such case if she afterward marry under the degree of Nobility by such Marriage she loses the Dignity she had attained and after such latter Marriage the power to retain a Chaplain is determined But otherwise it is where a woman is Noble by Discent for there her Retainer before or after the Marriage with one that is not Noble shall be in force and is not countermanded by the Marriage nor determined by her taking a Husband under her degree Coke lib 4. fol. 118 119. Chapter CHapter in Latine is defined to be An Assembly of Clerks in a Church-Cathedral conventual regular or Collegiate and in another signification A place wherein the members of that Community treat of their common affairs and it hath other significations which appertain not to our purpose It may be said that this Collegiate company is termed Chapter metaphorically the word originally implying a little head for this Company or Corporation is as a Head not only to rule and govern the Diocesse in the vacation of the Bishoprick but also in many things to advise the Bishop when the See is full Charge CHarge is where a man grants a Rent issuing out of his land and that if the Rent be behind it shall be lawfull for him his heirs and assigns to distrain till the Rent be paid this is called a Rent-charge But if one grant a Rent-charge out of the land of another though after he purchase the land yet the Grant is void Charter land CHarter-land is such as a man holds by Charter that is by Evidence in writing which otherwise is called Free-hold Copyhold-lands before the Conquest were by the Saxons called Folkland and the Charter-lands Bockland And Lambert in the Explication of Saxon words saith That this land was held with more easie and commodious conditions then Folkland and Copyhold-land held without writing And his reason is because it is a free and absolute Inheritance whereas land without writing is charged with payment and bondage so that for the most part Noblemen and persons of Quality possess the former and Rusticks the other The first we call Free-hold and by Charter the other Land at the will of the Lord. If a Riot Rout or Vnlawful assembly be committed then by the Statute of 19 H. 7. c. 13. twenty men inhabiting within the County where the Riot c. is made whereof every of them shall have lands and tenements within the same County to the yearly value of twenty shillings of Charter-hold or Free-hold or twenty six shillings of Copyhold shall make enquiry thereof Charter-party CHarter-party is an Indenture of Covenants and Agreements made between Merchants or Mariners concerning their Sea-affairs and of this you may read in the Statute now out of use made 32 H. 8. cap. 14. Charters CHarters of Lands are Writings Deeds Evidences and Instruments made from one man to another upon some Estate conveyed or passed between them of Lands or Tenements shewing the names place and quantity of the Land the Estate time and manner of the doing thereof the Parties to the Estate delivered and taken the Witnesses present at the same with other circumstances Chartis reddendis CHartis reddendis is a Writ which lies against him that has Charters of Feoffment delivered him to be kept and refuses to deliver them Old Nat.

Chase CHase is taken two wayes first to drive cattel as to chase a Distress to a Castle secondly for a Receit for Deer and Beasts of the Forest and it is of a middle nature between a Forest and a Park being commonly less then a Forest and not endued with so many Liberties as with Courts of Attachment Swainmore and Justice seat and yet of a larger compass and having greater diversity of Keepers and Game then a Park Crompt in his Book of Iurisdictions fol. 148. saith That a Forest may not be in the hands of a Subject but it presently looses the name and becomes a Chase and yet fol. 197. he saith That a subject may be Lord and owner of a Forest which though they seem contradictory yet are both his sayings in some sense true For the King may give or alienate a Forest to a Subject yet so that when it is once in the Subject it loses the true property of a Forest because the Courts of Swainmote Justice seat and Attachment presently vanish none being able to make a Lord chief Iustice in Eyre of the Forest but the King as Manwood hath well shewed as his Book of Forest Laws cap. 3. 4. Yet it may be granted in such large manner that there may be Attachment and Swainmote and a Court equivalent to a Justice Seat as appears by him in the same Chapter numb 3. So that a Chase differs from a Forest in this because it may be in the hands of a Subject which a Forest in its proper nature cannot be and from
commands and the other doth it rather by a friendly and voluntary Conference or agreement between him or her and the Devil or Familiar to have his or her desires and purposes effected instead of blood or other gift offered him especially of his or her Soul And both these differ from Enchantments or Sorceries because they are personal Conferences with the Devil as is said but these are but Medicines and ceremonial forms of words commonly called Charms without apparition Conservator of the Peace COnservator of the Peace is he that hath an especial charge by virtue of his Office to see the Kings Peace kept Which Peace in effect is defined to be A with-holding or abstinence from that injurious force and violence that unruly and boisterous men are in their natures prone to use towards others were they not restrained by Laws and fear of Punishment Of these Conservators Lambert farther saith That before the time of King E. 3 who first appointed Iustices of Peace there were sundry persons who by the Common Law had interest in keeping of the Peace Of those some had that charge as incident to their Offices and so included within the same and yet notwithstanding were called by the name of their Office only others had it simply as of it self and were thereof named Custodes Pacis Wardens or Conservators of the Peace And both these sorts are again subdivided by Lambert in his Eirenarcha l. 1. c. 3. Conservator of the Truce COnservator of the Truce was an Officer appointed in every Port of the Sea under the Kings Letters Patents and had 40 li. for his yearly stipend at the least His charge was to enquire of all Offences done against the Kings Truce and Sa â— e conducts upon the main Sea out of the Countries and Liberties of the Cinque-Ports of the King as the Admirals have accustomedly done and such other things as are declared Anno 2 H. 5. cap. 6. Touching this matter you may read the other Statute of Anno 4 H. 5. c. 7. Consideration COnsideration is the material cause of a Contract without which no Contract can bind the party This Consideration is either expressed as when a man bargains to give twenty shillings for an Horse or is implied as when the Law it self inforces a Consideration as if a man comes into a common Inne and there staying some time takes meat or lodging or either for himself or his horse the Law presumes he intends to pay for both notwithstanding that nothing be covenanted between him and his Host and therefore if he discharges not the house the Host may stay his horse Also there is Consideration of nature and blood and Valuable Consideration and therefore if a man be indebted to divers others and yet in consideration of natural affection gives all his goods to his son or cousin this shall be construed a fraudulent Gift within the Act of 13 Eliz. c. 5. because this Act intends a Valuable consideration Consistory COnsistory is a word borrowed of the Italians or rather Lombards and signifies as much as Tribunal It is vocabulum utriusque Juris and is used for the place of Iustice in the Courts Christian or Spiritual Consolidation COnsolidation is used for the Combining and uniting of two Benefices in one And this word is taken from the Civil Law where it properly signifies an Vniting of the possession occupation or profit with the property As if a man hath by Legacy usum fructum fundi and after purchases the Property or Fee-simple of the Heir in this case a Consolidation is made of the Profits and Property Vide Brook tit Union Conspiracie COnspiracie notwithstanding that in Latine and French it is used for an Agreement of men to do a good or evil thing yet it is commonly taken in our Law in the evil part and is defined in 34 E. 1. Stat. 2. to be an Agreement of such as confeder or bind themselves by Oath Covenant or other alliance that every of them shall bear and aid the other falsly and maliciously to indict or falsly to move or maintain Pleas and also such as cause Children within age to appeal men of Felony whereby they are imprisoned and sore grieved and such as maintain men in the Country with Liveries and Fees to maintain their malicious enterprises and this extends as well to the takers as to the givers Also Stewards and Bayliffs of great Lords who by their Selgniory Office or power undertake to bear or maintain Quarrels Pleas or Debates that concern other parties then such as touch the Estate of their Lords or of themselves Anno 4 E. 3. c. 11. 3 H. 7. c. 13 And hereof see more 1 H. 5. c. 3. 18 H. 6. c. 12. also in the old Book of Entries word Conspiracie This word in the place before rehearsed is taken more generally and is confounded with Maintenance and Champerty but in a more special signification it is taken for a Confederacy between two or more falsly to indict one or to procure one to be indicted of Felony And the punishment of Conspiracy upon an Indictment of Felony at the Suit of the King is That the party attainted shall lose his frank law so that he shall not be impanelled upon Iuries or Assises or such like imployments for testifying of the truth and if he hath to do in the Kings Court he shall make his Attorney and his lands goods and chattels shall be seised into the Kings hands his lands estreaped his trees digged up and his body committed to prison 27 lib.

Decem Tales DEcem Tales See Tales Decies tantum DEcies tantum is a Writ that lies where a Iuror in any Enquest takes money of the one part or other to give his Verdict then he shall pay ten times as much as he hath received a â— d every one that will sue may have Action and shall have the one half and the King the other But if the King in such case release by his Pardon to such a Iuror yet that shall be no Bar against him that brings the Action who shall recover the other half if this Action be commenced before the Pardon of the King but if the Pardon be before any Action it is a Bar against all men And the same Law is of all other Actions popular where one part is to the King the other to the party that sues And the Embracers who procure such Enquests shall be punished in the same manner and they shall have imprisonment a year But no Iustice shall enquire thereof ex officio but only at the Suit of the party Deciners DEciners are such as were wont to have the oversight and command of Ten free Burgs for preserving the Kings Peace and the Limits or Circuit of their Iurisdiction was called Decenna Bracton l. 3. tract 2. c. 15.

These seemed to have large authority in the Saxons time taking knowledge of Causes within their Circuit and redressing wrongs by way of Iudgment as you may read in the Laws of King Edward set out by Lambert num 32. Also there is mention of these in Britton cap. 12. who saith in the Kings person as he writes his whole Book in this manner We will that all such as are fourteen years of age shall make oath that they shall be sufficient and loyal unto Vs and that they will not be Felons nor assenting to Felons and that all be professed to be of this or that Dozein and make or offer Surety of their behaviour by these or those Deciners except Religious persons Clerks Knights and their eldest sons and Women Yet the same Author in his 29. chap. near the end saith That all at the age of 12 years or above are punishable for not coming to the Sheriffs Tourn excepting Earls Prelates Barons Religious persons and Women The same Law is where the Deciners make presentment that a Felon is taken for Theft and delivered to the Sheriff And Kitchen out of the Register and Britton saith thus Religious persons Clerks Knights or Women shall not be Deciners fol. 33. Whence it may be gathered that this word implies nothiny else but such a one as by his Oath of Loyalty to his Prince is settled in the combination or society of a Dozein for it is not usual at this day to find Surety so to do And now a Dozeine seems to extend so far as the Lcet extends because in Leets only this Oath is administred by the Steward and taken by such as are of the age of twelve years and upward dwelling within the Precinct of the Leet where they are sworn Fitzh Nat. Brev. 161. a. The particulars of this Oath you may read in Bracton l. 3. tract 2. c. 1. num 1. where he puts dwon fifteen years for the age of those that are sworn to the Kings Peace but l. 3. tract 2. c. 11. num 5. he names twelve years See Inlaugh From which Premisses may be observed the difference detween the ancient and these our times in this point of Law and Government as well for the age of those that are to be sworn as also that Deciner is not now used for the chief man of a Dozein but for him that is sworn to the Kings Peace and lastly that now there are not any Dozeins but Leets and that ordinarily no man gives other Security for keeping the Kings Peace but his own Oath and therefore no one shall answer for the transgression of another but every one for himself Declaration DEclaration is a Shewing in writing the grief and complaint of the Demandant or Plaintiff against the Tenant or Defendant wherein he supposes to have received wrong And this Declaration ought to be plain and certain both because it impeaches the Defendant and also compels him to make answer thereto But note that such Declaration made by the Demandant against the Tenant in an Action real is properly called a Count. Note That the Count or Declaration ought to contain Demonstration Declaration and Conclusion And in Demonstration are contained three things that is him who complains against whom and for what matter And in the Declaration there ought to be comprised how and in what manner the Action rose between the parties and when and what day year and place and to whom the Action shall be given And in the Conclusion he ought to averre and profer to prove his Suit and shew the Dammages which he hath sustained by the wrong done him De deoneranda pro rata portionis DE deoneranda c. is a Writ that lies where one one is distreined for Rent that ought to be paid by others proportionably with him Fitz.

For Arrearages of Rent reserved upon a Lease for term of years the Lessor is at his election to have an Action of Debt or to distrain but if the Lease be determined then he shall not distrain after for that Rent but he must have an Action of Debt for the Arrerages And note That by the Law of the Realm Debt is only taken to arise upon some Contract or Penalty imposed upon some Statute or pain and not by other Offences as in the Civil Law Debitum ex delicto If a man enter into a Tavern to drink and when he hath drank goes away and will not pay the Vintner the Vintner shall not have an Action of Trespass against him for his Entry but shall have an Action of Debt for the Wine If I deliver Cloth to a Tailor to make a Gown if the price be not agreed on in certain before how much I shall pay for the making he shall not have against me a general Action of Debt but a special one and shall declare specially and it shall be put to the Iury how much he deserves But if a Tailor make a Bill and himself rates the making and the necessaries thereunto he shall not have an Action of Debt for his own values unless it was so specially agreed but in such case he may detain the Garment until he be paid as an Hostler may his Guests Horse for his meat Cok. l 8. 147.

Customary Tenants CUstomary Tenants are such Tenants as hold by the Custome of the Mannor as their special Evidence Custome CUstome may be defined to be a Law or Right not written which being established by long use and consent of our Ancestors hath been and dayly is put in practice Custome is either general or particular General is that which is current through England whereof you may read in Doctor and Student l. 1. c. 7. many very worthy to be known Particular is that which belongs to this or that County as Gavelkind to Kent or to this or that Lordship City or Town Custome differs from Prescription because Custome is common to many and Prescription by the opinion of some is particular to this or that man Again Prescription may be for a shorter time than Custome sc for five years or less As if a Fine be duly levied of Lands or Tenements and be not gainsaid within five years this is a Bar to all Claim for ever If a man omits his Continual Claim for a year and a day then the Tenant in possession prescribes an Immunity against the Entry of the Demandant and his Heir Fitzh Nat. Brev. 79. Out of our Statutes you may have greater diversity so that this seems to be a true saying That Prescription is an Exception founded upon so long time gone and past as the Law limits for the pursuit of any Action An example may be taken out of the Statute of 1 H. 8. c. 4. which enacts That in all Actions popular information shall be made within three years after the offence committed otherwise to be of no force Custome is also used for the Tribute or Toll that Merchants pay to the King to carry in and out Merchandizes 14 E. 3.

Dammage DAmmage is part of that which the Iurors are to enquire of in giving their Verdict for the Complainant or Demandant in an Action real or personal For after the Verdict given upon the principal matter they are also asked their Consciences touching Costs which are the Expences of the Suit and Dammages which contain the prejudice which the Plaintiff or Demandant hath suffered by means of the wrong doue him by the Defendant or Tenant And forasmuch as Iustice and Reason require that when the life credit lands goods corruption of bloud and all that a man hath to forfeit in this world are put in peril without just cause but only upon the malicious Accusation of another by Appeal that the Appellee should have satisfaction therefore against his false Accuser and if he hath not sufficient then against him or them that abbetted or procured him to pursue the Appeal Therefore the Common Law gave Dammages to the Defendant in an Appeal and assigned him a means for the recovery thereof when he was acquitted of the Felony as it is 48 E. 3. 22.

See Enitia pars Eire Justices EIre Justices or Itinerant as we call them were Iustices that used to ride from place to place throughout the Realm to administer Iustice And these Iustices had authority in ancient times to grant Land that was seised for the King for Alienation without licence for then Iustices in Eire might have granted such Land in fee rendring Rent as Iustices of the Forrest who in effect as to this purpose are Iustices in Eire at this day may of Lands iuclosed within a Forrest without the Kings licence Coke l. 2. fol. 80. Election ELection is when a man is left to his own Free will to take or do one thing or another which he pleases As if A covenants to pay B a pound of Pepper or Saffron before Whitsontide it is at the Election of A at all times before Whitsontide which of them he will pay but if he pays it not before the said Feast then afterward it is at the Election of B of have his Action for which he pleases Dyer f. 18. pl. 104.

And so in many other cases Elegit TO hold by Elegit is where a man hath recovered Debt or Dammage by a Writ against another by confession or in other manner he shall have within the year against him a Writ judicial called Elegit to have execution of the half of all his Lands and Chattels except Oxen and Beasts of the plow till the Debt and Dammages be wholly levied and paid him and during this term he is Tenant by Elegit If he be put out within the term he shall have Assise of Novel Disseisin and after a Redisselsin if need be and this is given by the Statute of Wes ◠m. 2. c. 18. And by the equity of the said Statute he that hath this Estate if he be put out shall have Assise and Redisseisin if need be And also if he make his Executors and die and his Executors enter and after are put out they shall have such Action as he himself And if he be put out and after make his Executors and die his Executors may enter and if they be stopped of their Entry they shall have a Writ of Trespasse upon their Case If he do Waste in all the Land or parcel the other shall have against him immediately a Writ judicial out of the first Record called Venire facias ad computandum by which it shall be enquired if he have levied all the money or parcel and if he have not levied the money then it shall be enquired to how much the Waste amounts and if the Waste amount but to parcel then as much of the money as the Waste amounts unto shall be abridged of the aforesaid money which was to be levied But if he have done more Waste then the aforesaid summ of money which was to be levied amounts to the other shall be discharged forthwith of all the said money and shall recover the Land And for the superfluity of the Waste made above the said summ he shall recover his dammages single The same Law is of his Executors and of him that hath his Estate Or if the Debtor be satisfied by digging Coals Load Tyn or oeher casual profits See the Stat. 32 H. 8. c. 5. If all the Lands extended be evicted from the Debtor by a better title he may take a new Execution Co. 4. Rep. 66. If he alien in fee for term of life or in tail all or parcel of the Land which he holds by Elegit if the Alienation be made within the term or after he who hath right shall have against him an Assise of Novel Disseisin And they both must be put in the Assise the Alienor and the Alience and though the Alienor d ◠e presently yet he who hath right shall have Assise against the Alienee alone as if the Alienee had been a plain Tenant for term of years And that is by the equity of the Statute of Westm 2. cap. 25. for that he hath but a Chattel in effect And the same Law is of his Executors and of him who hath his Estate as is aforesaid In Elegit if the Sherif return that the party hath nothing the day of the Recognizance made but that he purchased Lands after the time then the Plaintiff shall have a new Writ to have Execution thereof The same Law is of a Statute-Merchant After a Fieri facias a man may have the Elegit but not contrariwise for that the Elegit is of a higher nature then the
Executors he that doth appear by Distress shall answer doth extend by Equity to Administrators for such of them as appear first by Distress shall answer by Equity of the said Act because they are of the like kind So likewise the Statutes of Gloucester gives the Action of Waste and the Penalty of it against him that holds for Life or Years and by the Equity thereof a man shall have an Action of Waste against him that holds but for one year or half a year yet this is without the words of the Statute for he that holds but for half a year or one year doth not hold for years but that is the meaning and the words that Enact the one by Equity Enact the other Errant ERrant id est Itenerans comes from the French word Errer id est Errare or if the old word Erre id est Iter and is appropriated unto Iustices that go Circuit and to the Bailiffs at large who are therefore called Justices Errants and Bailiffs Errants because they go and travel from place to place the one to do Iustice and the other to execute Process See Eire Error ERror is a Fault in Iudgement or in the Process or Proceeding to Iudgment or in the Execution upon the same in a Court of Record which in the Civil Law is called a Nullitie Error is also the name of a Writ that lies where Iudgment is given in the Common place or before the Iustice in Assise or Oyer and Terminer or before the Major and Sheriffs of London or in other Court of Record against the Law or upon undue and ill Process then the party grieved shall have this Wrft and thereupon cause the Record and Process to be removed before the Iustices of the Kings Bench and if the Error be found it shall be reversed But if an erroneous Iudgment be given in the Kings Bench then it could not be reversed but by Parliament until the Statute of 27 Eliz. cap. 8. Also if such a Default in Iudgment be given in a Court not of Record as in a County Hundred or Court-Baron the party shall have a Writ of False Iudgment to cause the Record to be brought before a Iustice of the Common-place Also if Error be found in the Exchequer it shall be redressed by the Chancellor and Treasurer as it appeas by the Statute E. 3. an 31. c. 12. 31 El. c. 1. Also there is another Writ of Error upon a Iudgment in the Kings Bench and that is where the Plaintiff assign matter of Fact for Error And this lies in the same Court for this Court can redress their Errors in Fact but not their errors in Law But the Court of common B. cannot do so Escape EScape is where one that is arrested comes to his liberty before he be delivered by Award of any Iustice or by order of Law Escape is in two sorts voluntary and negligent Voluntary Escape is when one doth arrest another for Felony or other Crime and after he in whose custody he is lets him go where he will And if the Arrest were for Felony then shall it be Felony in him that suffered the Escape if for Treason then Treason in him and if for Trespass then Trespass and so in all other When one is arrested after escapes against the will of him that did arrest him and is not freshly pursued and taken before the pursuer loses the sight of him this shall be said a negligent Escape notwithstanding that he out of whose possession he escaped do take him after he lost sight of him A so if one be arrested and after escape and is at his liberty and he in whose ward he was take him afterward and bring him to the prison yet it is an Escape in him If a Felon be arrested by the Constable and brought to the Goal in the County and the Goaler will not receive him and the Constable lets him go and the Goaler also and so he escapes this is an Escape in the Goaler for that in such case the Goaler is bound to receive him by the hand of the Constable without any Precept of the Iustice of Peace But otherwise it is if a common person arrest another upon suspicion of Felony there the Goaler is not bound to receive him without a Precept of some Iustice of Peace There is an Escape also without an Arrest as if Murder be made in the day and the Murderer be not taken then it is an escape for which the Town where the Murder was done shall be amerced And it is to be observed That a man may be said to escape notwithstanding he always continues in Prison As if a man be in Prison upon two Executions at the Suit of two several men and the old Sheriff delivers over this Prisoner to the new Sheriff by Indenture according to the usual course and in the said Indenture makes no mention of one of the said Executions this Omission shall be said an Escape in Law instantly for which the Old Sheriff shall answer although the Execution was matter of Record whereof the new Sheriff might have taken notice But otherwise it is where the old Sheriff dies for in such case it behoves the new Sheriff at his peril to take notice of all the Executions that are against any person that he finds in the Gaol But in the said Case where the Sheriff dies and before another is made one that is in Execution breaks the Gaol and goes at large this is no Escape for when a Sheriff dies all the Prisoners are in the custody of the Law until a new Sheriff be made See Coke lib. 3. fol. 72. If the Sheriff upon a Capias ad satisfaciendum to him directed makes Return That he hath taken the Body and yet hath not the Body in Court at the day of the Return the Plaintiff may have his Action against the Sheriff for the Escape although the party so taken be in the Gaol See 7 H. 4. 11.

After the Plaintiff hath declared he ought to shew his Obligation and the Executor the Testament to the Court. And so it is of Records And the diversity between Shewing of Deeds or Records and Hearing of Deeds or Records is this He that pleads the Deed or Record or Declares upon it ought to shew the same and the other against whom such Deed or Record is pleaded or declared and is thereby to be charged may demand hearing of the same Deed or Record which his Adversary brings or pleads against him Monstraverunt MOnstraverunt is a Writ that lies for the Tenants in Ancient Demesne and is directed to the Lord him commanding not to Distain his Tenant to do other Service then he ought and they may have this Writ directed to the Sheriff that he suffer not the Lord to distrain the said Tenant to do other Service If the Tenants cannot be in quiet they may have an Attachment against the Lord to appear before the Iustices and all the names of the Tenants shall be put in the Writ though but one of them be grieved Also if any Land in ancient Demesne be in variance between the Tenants then the Tenant so grieved shall have against the other a Writ which is called of Right close after the Custome of the Mannor and that shall be alway brought in the Lords Court and thereupon he shall declare in the nature of what Writ he will as his case lies and this Writ shall not be removed but for a great cause or non-power of the Court.

In this case the Feoffee is called Tenant in Morgage And as a Man may make a Feoffment in Fee in Morgage so he may make a Gift in Tail or a Lease for Life or Years in Morgage And it seems the cause why it is called Morgage is for that it stands it doubt whether the Feoffoe will pay the mony at the day appointed or not and if he fail then the Land which he laid in gage upon condition of payment of the money is gone from him for ever and so dead to him upon condition but if he pay the mony then is the gage dead
