therefore_o may_v in_o these_o particular_n vary_v in_o the_o deed_n from_o the_o will_n of_o 75._o but_o i_o will_v still_o have_v this_o observe_v that_o in_o substance_n they_o do_v agree_v he_o

that_o very_a devise_n be_v void_a because_o it_o be_v to_o the_o son_n and_o heir_n to_o who_o it_o will_v without_o that_o have_v descend_v and_o it_o signify_v very_o little_a to_o their_o

at_o that_o time_n they_o say_v he_o be_v but_o a_o minor_a of_o 20_o year_n of_o age_n and_o it_o be_v only_o to_o dispose_v of_o his_o personal_a estate_n for_o as_o to_o his_o land_n if_o he_o

deed_n to_o my_o think_v direct_o they_o have_v make_v another_o objection_n that_o the_o duke_n never_o intend_v to_o leave_v any_o part_n of_o his_o estate_n to_o sir_n thomas_n clarges_n because_o

that_o the_o duke_n call_v he_o cousin_n now_o after_o all_o this_o that_o the_o duke_n shall_v make_v this_o last_o will_n and_o give_v all_o this_o estate_n to_o a_o stranger_n for_o so_o as_o to_o

this_o i_o think_v be_v a_o very_a unaccountable_a thing_n and_o i_o confess_v i_o know_v not_o how_o to_o extricate_v myself_o out_o of_o the_o confusion_n it_o cause_v in_o i_o but_o i_o must_v set_v the_o one_o against_o the_o other_o as_o to_o that_o objection_n and_o leave_v the_o matter_n in_o the_o dark_a as_o to_o the_o duke_n honour_n as_o i_o find_v it_o though_o i_o think_v i_o may_v give_v a_o further_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n under_o the_o second_o head_n but_o i_o must_v speak_v something_o more_o under_o this_o for_o i_o will_v omit_v nothing_o that_o i_o conceive_v to_o be_v material_a in_o the_o case_n there_o be_v another_o thing_n object_v that_o seem_v dark_a in_o this_o case_n and_o that_o be_v what_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o some_o parchment_n that_o be_v ingross_v by_o thompson_n the_o summer_n before_o the_o duke_n go_v to_o jamaica_n the_o jury_n have_v find_v that_o this_o deed_n be_v execute_v in_o 81._o and_o if_o than_o the_o other_o side_n will_v make_v use_n of_o this_o as_o insinuate_v that_o they_o be_v the_o same_o deed_n then_o that_o be_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v as_o be_v express_o against_o the_o verdict_n but_o to_o i_o it_o seem_v that_o these_o deed_n in_o 87._o be_v make_v upon_o some_o design_n to_o have_v they_o execute_v then_o perhaps_o to_o settle_v the_o estate_n upon_o a_o firm_a foot_n than_o it_o be_v think_v before_o the_o earl_n of_o bath_n perhaps_o may_v be_v jealous_a that_o the_o duchess_n may_v prevail_v upon_o the_o duke_n to_o revoke_v the_o former_a deed_n in_o due_a form_n and_o therefore_o these_o deed_n may_v be_v prepare_v absolute_o without_o any_o power_n of_o revocation_n and_o think_v he_o may_v procure_v the_o duke_n to_o seal_v they_o so_o before_o he_o go_v to_o jamaica_n i_o say_v that_o may_v be_v the_o intention_n though_o what_o be_v the_o design_n i_o can_v real_o tell_v but_o admit_v that_o such_o write_n be_v prepare_v with_o such_o a_o design_n to_o get_v the_o duke_n to_o execute_v they_o i_o know_v not_o that_o all_o this_o put_v together_o will_v be_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n in_o equity_n to_o set_v aside_o the_o deed_n of_o 81._o for_o all_o design_n in_o gain_v of_o deed_n will_v not_o avoid_v deed_n actual_o make_v and_o that_o be_v plain_a from_o the_o case_n of_o bodmin_n and_o roberts_n that_o be_v one_o of_o the_o precedent_n use_v in_o this_o case_n which_o be_v in_o short_a thus_o mr._n roberts_n son_n to_o the_o late_a earl_n of_o radnor_n marry_v the_o only_a daughter_n and_o child_n of_o bodmin_n who_o be_v so_o

notwithstanding_o this_o great_a fondness_n of_o his_o daughter_n one_o mr._n wynne_n take_v a_o opportunity_n when_o mr._n bodmin_n be_v under_o a_o arrest_n and_o officious_o come_v to_o bail_v he_o

and_o circumstance_n of_o the_o case_n that_o this_o deed_n do_v remain_v in_o the_o custody_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o albemarle_n for_o that_o sir_n thomas_n stringer_n a_o little_a before_o the_o

as_o to_o this_o case_n i_o will_v observe_v first_o this_o be_v not_o a_o case_n upon_o a_o power_n of_o revocation_n to_o divest_v a_o estate_n nor_o a_o performance_n of_o a_o condition_n but_o further_a here_o be_v instruction_n prepare_v and_o it_o go_v as_o far_o towards_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o power_n as_o can_v be_v till_o a_o impediment_n come_v in_o the_o way_n by_o the_o act_n of_o god_n in_o the_o death_n of_o the_o party_n now_o i_o agree_v where_o there_o be_v a_o impediment_n by_o the_o act_n of_o god_n or_o fraud_n or_o default_n of_o the_o party_n who_o claim_v by_o the_o deed_n equity_n may_v interpose_v but_o that_o do_v no_o way_n come_v up_o to_o the_o case_n in_o question_n then_o there_o be_v the_o case_n of_o dey_n and_o thwaites_n which_o be_v late_o in_o this_o court_n thwaites_n make_v a_o settlement_n to_o the_o use_n of_o himself_o for_o life_n and_o afterward_o to_o such_o child_n and_o child_n and_o for_o such_o estate_n and_o estate_n as_o he_o

to_o it_o so_o that_o they_o do_v not_o cite_v the_o case_n right_a that_o say_v there_o be_v not_o two_o witness_n but_o two_o witness_n be_v not_o enough_o by_o the_o statute_n to_o make_v it_o a_o good_a will_n and_o thereby_o he_o give_v a_o rent_n of_o 100_o l._n a_o year_n to_o such_o a_o child_n and_o dies_z now_o one_o great_a question_n be_v whether_o the_o power_n be_v to_o limit_v estate_n or_o estate_n he_o may_v limit_v a_o rent_n out_o of_o those_o land_n it_o be_v hold_v in_o equity_n he_o may_v and_o true_o i_o think_v that_o he_o may_v at_o law_n there_o be_v i_o confess_v a_o opinion_n against_o it_o in_o the_o case_n of_o brown_n and_o taylor_n where_o there_o be_v three_o judge_n against_o one_o but_o real_o i_o think_v it_o be_v good_a at_o law_n a_o second_o question_n be_v whether_o this_o be_v void_a as_o a_o will_n by_o the_o statute_n shall_v be_v yet_o a_o good_a declaration_n of_o the_o trust_n and_o a_o execution_n of_o the_o power_n and_o i_o think_v the_o court_n of_o equity_n do_v very_o well_o in_o decree_a it_o to_o be_v good_n for_o though_o it_o be_v not_o effectual_a in_o all_o point_n as_o it_o be_v intend_v as_o a_o will_n yet_o it_o be_v a_o write_v which_o have_v all_o the_o circumstance_n require_v by_o the_o power_n and_o therefore_o i_o see_v no_o reason_n to_o question_v whether_o it_o be_v good_n the_o next_o case_n be_v the_o case_n of_o ward_n and_o booth_n and_o that_o stand_v thus_o sir_n thomas_n brereton_n make_v a_o settlement_n with_o a_o power_n of_o revocation_n by_o a_o write_n under_o hand_n

to_o be_v hear_v before_o my_o lord_n nottingham_n and_o adjudge_v no_o revocation_n it_o appear_v there_o be_v a_o continue_a intention_n not_o to_o revoke_v but_o i_o desire_v to_o read_v part_n of_o the_o ground_n that_o decrce_o go_v upon_o for_o that_o justify_v what_o i_o say_v in_o case_n where_o there_o be_v a_o disability_n or_o a_o impediment_n by_o fraud_n this_o court_n may_v

upon_o a_o bill_n suggest_v her_o intention_n to_o revoke_v the_o plaintiff_n can_v not_o prevail_v in_o this_o court_n to_o set_v aside_o the_o first_o settlement_n but_o be_v dismiss_v to_o law_n and_o order_v to_o try_v the_o title_n within_o a_o twelvemonth_n whether_o revoke_v or_o not_o revoke_v and_o there_o be_v afterward_o a_o trial_n and_o the_o tender_a of_o the_o guiney_n do_v happen_v to_o be_v prove_v and_o so_o the_o power_n be_v well_o execute_v at_o law_n but_o this_o court_n will_v not_o interpose_v to_o set_v it_o aside_o as_o a_o revocation_n in_o equity_n upon_o the_o intention_n only_o without_o a_o proof_n of_o the_o due_a execution_n and_o upon_o the_o whole_a matter_n i_o conclude_v that_o in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n there_o can_v be_v a_o revocation_n of_o a_o deed_n to_o which_o a_o power_n to_o revoke_v be_v annex_v but_o what_o be_v pursuant_n to_o that_o power_n unless_o there_o be_v either_o a_o impediment_n from_o the_o party_n that_o claim_v

of_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n it_o do_v plain_o appear_v there_o be_v a_o most_o particular_a friendship_n and_o mutual_a confidence_n between_o they_o in_o matter_n of_o the_o high_a nature_n and_o
