the said Indenture covenanted with Platt that the said Platt and his Heirs should quietly enjoy the said Lands without interruption of any person or persons And afterwards certain controversies rising betwixt them concerning the said Lands Arbitrament the said Bream and Platt submitted themselves to the award and arbitrament of Sir W. Cordel to whom they were bounden severally for the performance of such award the which Sir W. amongst other things awarded that the said Platt and his Heirs should enjoy quietly the said Lands in tam amplo modo forma as the said Land is conveyed and assured by the coveyance and assurance aforesaid And the truth was that the said Bream at the time of the said Assurance was bounden in a Recognizance of six hundred pounds to one More 15. Eliz. and afterwards More 16 Eliz. sued a Sci. fac upon the said Recognizance and 18 Eliz. the bargain and sale aforesaid was made and afterwards 19 Eliz. More sued forth Excution by Elegit and the moyety of the said Land assured to Platt was delivered in Execution to More And if upon the whole matter the Arbitrament was broken was the question It was argued by Godfrey that the Plaintiff ought to be barred and first 1 Hob. 35. Mor. 175. 3 Len. 43. Post 93. Post 179 279. 1 Inst 366. a. b. 388. Dy 42. he conceived that these words in the Indenture give and grant did not help the Action for the Lands passed with a charge and the general words Dedi concessi do not extend to this collateral charge but to the direct right of the Land only but if a stranger had put out the bargainee there upon such general words an Action would lie but as the Case is they do not give any cause of Action for the Recognizance was a thing in charge at the time of the Assurance and yet see 31 E 3. Br. Warr. Chartae 33. A. enfeoffeth B. with warranty who brings a Warrantia Chartae and recovers pro loco tempore and afterwards a stranger doth recover against him a Rent charge out of the said Land and it was holden that upon the matter B. should have execution the special words of the Aribitrament upon which the Action is brought are that the said Platt and his Heirs should enjoy the said Lands in tam amplo modo forma as it was assured and conveyed to the said Platt ergo not in more ample manner 1 Cro. 660. 661. Owen Rep. 65. 2 Cro. 571. 1 Roll. 425. and the said Land was conveyed to Platt chargeable to the said Recognizance therefore if Platt enjoy it charged there is no cause of Action And as to the Covenant in the Indenture that Platt and his Heirs should enjoy quietly the said Lands without interruption of any person the same is a Collateral surety and the words of the Award are that Platt shall enjoy it in tam amplo modo forma as it is conveyed and assured by the assurance aforesaid without interruption these are not words of assurance for the assurance doth consist in the legal words of passing the estate scil bargain sale Dedi concessi and in the limitation of the estate and not in the words of the Convenant And therefore it hath been adjudged that if I. be bounden to A. in an Obligation to assure to him the Mannor of D c. if A. tender to me an Indenture of bargain and sale in which are many Covenants I am not bound upon the peril of my Bond to seal and deliver it Also here doth not appear any interruption against the Covenant in the Indenture for here is not any lawful Execution for it appeareth here that More hath sued Execution by Elegit 4 years after the Iudgment in the Scire facias in which case he shall be put to a new Scire facias for the Sheriff in this Case ought to have returned that the Conusor after the Recognizance had enfeoffed divers persons and shewed who and upon that matter returned the Conusee should have a Sci. facias against the Feoffees vide F. N. B. 266. And the Court was clear of opinion against the Plaintiff XXXV Floud and Sir John Perrotts Case Trin. 27 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. FLoud recovered against Sir John Perrot 1 Cro. 63. Post 264. 3 Len. 240. in an Action upon the Case upon a promise eighty six pounds against which Floud and Barlow affirmed a Plaint of Debt in London and attached the said moeny in the hands of the said Sir John and had execution according to the custom of London And now the said Floud sued a Scire facias against the said Sir John who appeared and pleaded the said Execution by attachment upon which Floud the Plaintiff did demur in Law And it was adjudged no plea for a duty which accrueth by matter of Record cannot be attached by the custom of London And notwithstanding that the custom of London be layed generally in aliquo debito and damages recovered are quoddam debitum as it was urged by the Council of the Defendant Yet the Law is clear that Iudgments given in the Courts of the King ought not Judgments in the Kings Courts not to be defeated by particular custom of places nor cannot by such particular customs be defeated and avoided as it was lately adjudged in a Western Case Damages were recovered the Sheriff by virtue of a Fieri facias levyed the money which one to whom the Plaintiff was endebted did attach by the custom in the hands of the Sheriff but it was adjudged the attachment was not good for the custom of attachment cannot reach upon a thing of so high a nature as a Record is the same Law of Debt upon a Recognizance and Statute c. and it was affirmed by Wray chief Iustice that upon great deliberation it was agreed by Bromley Lord Chancellor himself the Lord Anderson Mead and Periam Iustices that where a Merchant having in an Action recovered certain damages became Bankrupt upon which issued an Commission upon the Statute of 13 Eliz. of Bankrupts that such Commissioners could not entermeddle with such damages to dispose of them to the Creditors according to the said Statute But now see the Statute of 1 Jacobi The Commissioners have power to dispose of such debts c. XXXVI Sir Walter Hungerfords Case Trin. 27 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. Grants of the King. IN a Replevin by Sir Walter Hungerford the Case was this the Queen being seised of a great Waste called Ruddesdown in the Parish of Chipnam granted to the Mayor and Burgesses of Chipnam the moyety of a Yard-land in the said Waste without certainty in what part of the Waste they should have the same or the special name of the Land or how it was bounded and without any certain description of it And afterwards the Queen granted to the said Sir Walter the said Waste and afterwards the said Mayor and Burgesses by warrant of Attorney
the custom might be known Also it appeareth here upon the Declaration that Trespass vi armis should lye and be brought for the Declaration is that the Defendant did break and pull down the Herdels which cannot be without express force as 42 E. 3. 24. Trespass upon the case against a Miller and declared that the Plaintiff used to grind at the said Mill without Toll and that he sent his corn to the said Mill to be ground and there the Defendant came and took two Bushels of his said corn And the Writ was upon the prescription to grind sine multura and that the Defendant praedict querent sine multura molire impedivit and by Award of the Court the Plaintiff took nothing by his Writ for he hath declared that the Defendant hath taken Toll and therefore he ought to have a general Writ of Trespass Beaumont to the contrary A Market is as well for the common Wealth as a Fishing Also he is at the costs for providing of Herdels and the erecting of them so as he hath declared he hath taken divers sums of mony for it and as to any sum not certain it is well enough for peradventure sometimes he hath taken a penny sometimes two pence as the parties could agree And as to the exception of vi armis the same is not material for the Plaintiff doth not rely upon the pulling down of the Herdels only but upon the loss of the mony also which he should have had if the Defendant had not broken his Herdels And afterwards Iudgment was given for the Plaintiff CXLVIII Beverly and Bawdes Case Pasch 30 Eliz. In the Kings Bench. BEverly brought a Writ of Error to reverse an Out-lawry pronounced against him at the suit of one Bawdes and shewed Error that he was outlawed by the name John Beverly of Humby in the County of Lincoln Gent. And that within the said County there are two Humbyes scil Magna Humby Parva Humby and none without addition To which it was said of the other side that the truth is that there are two such Towns and that Humby Magna is known as well by the name of Humby only as taken for the name of Humby Magna And upon that they are at Issue And it was moved Tryal by Inquest of what County or place if the Inquest to try this Issue shall come de corpore comitatus or from Humby Magna And by Cooke it shall be tryed by an Inquest of Humby Magna and he confessed that if the Issue had been No such Town then the Inquest ought to be of the body of the County but here is another Issue to be tryed 22 E. 4. 4. In Trespass done in Fulborn and Hinton in the County of C. The Defendant said that there is no such Town nor Hamlet of Hinton within the same County Iudgment of the Writ See there by Briggs the tryal shall be de corpore comitatus See 14 H. 6. 8. Over-dale and Nether-dale and none without addition and so at Issue tryed by them of the body of the County 35 H. 6. 12. And by him wheresoever an Issue may be tryed by an Inquest out of a special Visne there it shall never be tryed by the body of the County As the case before 22 E. 4. Trespass in two Towns A. and B. The Def. as to A. pleads there was no such Town and as to B. pleaded another plea. Now the whole Inquest shall come out of B. for the Inquest in one Town may try any thing within the same County which see Fitz. Visne 27. 22 E. 4. 4. And here in our case the Issue is if Humby Magna be as well known by the name of Humby only as by the name of Humby Magna And therefore the same may well be tryed by Inquest out of the Town of Humby Magna But by Wray Iustice this Issue doth amount to no such Town for the perclose of the plea is and no Humby without addition and the book cited out of 22 E. 4. is not ruled but is only the opinion of Brian and afterwards it was awarded that the tryal was well Another matter was objected because it is not shewed in the Writ of Error betwixt what parties the first Writ did depend for otherwise how can the Plaintiff in the Writ of Error have a Scire facias ad audiendum Errores if none be named in the Writ of Error against whom it shall issue And Godfrey affirmed that upon search of Presidents it was both ways so as it is at the pleasure of the Plaintiff to do it or not And Kemp Secondary shewed divers Presidents to that purpose And afterwards the Out-lawry was reversed CXLIX Cibel and Hills Case Pasch 30 Eliz. In the Common Pleas. Debt for a Nemine pene A Lease was made of a certain House and Land rendring Rent and another sum Nomine poenae and for the Nominae poenae the Lessor brought an Action of Debt The Lessee pleaded that the Lessor had entred into parcel of the Land demised Roll. Tit. Extinguishment upon which they were at Issue and found for the Plaintiff and now the Lessor brought Debt for the Rent reserved upon the same Lease to which the Defendant pleaded ut supra scil an Entry into parcel of the Land demised And issue was joyned upon it And one of the Iury was challenged and withdrawn because he was one of the former Iury And the Issue now was whether the said Cibel the Lessor expulit amovit adhuc extra tenet the said Hills And to prove the same it was given in Evidence on the Defendants part that upon the Land demised there was a Brick-kill and and thereupon a little small cottage and that the Lessor entred and went to the said cottage and took some of the Bricks and untiled the said cottage Suspension of Rent by entry upon part of the Land. But of the other side it was said that the Lessor had reserved to himself the Bricks and Tiles aforesaid which in truth were there ready made at the time of the Lease made and that he did not untile the Brick-kill house but that it fell by tempest and so the Plaintiff did nothing but came upon the Land to carry away his own goods And also he had used the said Bricks and Tiles upon the reparation of the house And as to the Extra tenet which is parcel of the Issue the Lessor did not continue upon the Land Hob. 326. Rolls ubi supra Post 172. but went off it and relinquished the possession But as to this last point it seemed to the Court that it is not material if the Plaintiff continued his possession there or not for if he once doth any thing which amounts to an Entry although that he depart presently yet the possession is in him sufficient to suspend the Rent and he shall be said extra tanere the Defendant the Lessee until he hath done an Act which doth
and made partition of the Demeans only but the Services of the Free-holders and Copy-holders did remain in Common One of the Daughters took Husband the Husband and the Wife make a Lease of the moyety of the Manor to the Plaintiff for years by word rendring Rent the Lessee entred into the Demeans allotted to the Wife of the Lessor Partition The Husband died and the Wife brought an Action of Wast Anderson By the partition the Demeans are now become in gross and severed from the Manor And if partition be made of a Manor so as the Demeans be allotted to one Sister and the Services to the other now the Mannor is dissolved yet if the other Sister dieth without issue and her part descendeth to the other now it is become a Manor again which Windham and Periam granted 6 Co. 64. See 12. H. 4. 271. And Anderson was of opinion that the moyety of the Demeans did not pass by the words of the moyety of the Manor as if one seised of a Manor maketh a Feoffment in Fee of part of the Demeans and afterwards re-purchaseth them and then makes a Feoffment of the whole Manor the Demeans repurchased will not pass thereby for they were once severed from the Manor and not re-united by the purchase Periam Although that in truth it is not a Manor nor any part of a Manor yet if it hath beeen reputed the moyety of the Manor it shall pass by such name which Anderson grant ed but it is not like to our Case Periam This is an ancient partition as appeareth by the Verdict ten years past and also it hath been reputed the moyety of the Manor therefore it shall pass Windham concessit Periam The intent of the Grantor is the best Interpreter of these words without relying strictly upon the words Anderson If we shall take the intents of men for Law we shall fall into many confusions in our proceedings but the Law is to judge of the meanings of men by their words Ever in the constructions of Wills the intent of the Testators have not had further favour than the words have given leave As to the other point It was argued by Walmsley that the Lease made by the Husband and Wife without Deed was void See 1 Ma. Dyer 91. And if the Wife after the death of her Husband accepts the Rent upon such a Lease reserved it shall not bind her for the consent of the Wife ought to be at the beginning of it which cannot be without Deed. Anderson conceived that the Lease is not meerly void See 15 Eliz. Smith Stapletons Case Plowd 431. Periam The matter is clear for although the Plaintiff declares generally of a Lease made by the Husband Wife yet the Iury hath found that it was by Indenture and that is pursuant enough And if the Husband and Wife make a Feoffment of the Wives Land it is the Feoffment of doth of them which Walmesley granted It was adjorned CCLXXXIV Smalwood amd others against the Bishop of Lichfeild and others Quare Impedit Trin. 31 Eliz. In the Common Pleas. HUmphrey Smalwood Richard Say and Thomas Say Executors of VVilliam Say Quare Impedit 1 Cro. 241. brought a Quare Impedit against the Bishop of Coventry and Lichfeild and M. Incumbent quod permittat praesentare ad Archidiaconatum de Derby which was void Et ad praesentationem Testatoris in vita sua nunc in retardationem executionis Testamenti did belong to the Executors Exception was taken because these words In retardationem executionis Testament could not be applied to a disturbance in the life of the Testator Windham There is not any Writ in the Register of Quare Impedit upon a disturbance made to the Testator Anderson What then therefore no remedy because no Writ according to his special matter 25 E. 3. 25. Goods are taken out of the possession of the Testator upon which the Executors brought Trespass In retardationem executionis Testamenti Writ abated for it ought to be where the Executors themselves were possessed Periam The Advowson it self is valuable not the presentment therefore it cannot be said in retardationem Periam Before the Statute of 4 E. 3. 73. In Case were damages were only to be recovered the Action moritur cum persona but where the thing it self was to be recovered there the Action accrued to the Executors Anderson 7 H. 4. 73. Ejectione firmae of an Ejectment made unto the Testator was maintained by the Executors be equity of the Statute of 4 E. 3 cap. 6. And by the opinion of the whole Court the Executors might have a Quare Impedit upon a disturbance made to the Presentment It was objected also that a Quare Impedit doth not lye of an Archdeaconry-ship for it is not local nor any Indenture made of it but is only a matter of function but it was not allowed for ●iii Archdeacon hath Locum in Coro And by the Statute a Quare Impedit lyeth of a Chappel and by the equity of it of a Prebend c. See the Statute of West 2. Quare Impedit of a Chappel Prebend c. It was moved if the Executors had presented after the death of the Testator whether the Archdeacon ought to receive the Clark of the Testator or of the Executors and the opinion of the Court was That the Bishop should have election therein And afterwards Iudgment was given that the Writ should abate for the disturbance to the Testator cannot be supposed new matter In retardationem executionis Testamenti But yet it was agreed that the Executors might have their special Writ upon their Case for the said disturbance Trin. 31 Eliz. In Communi Banco IN an Action brought against one as Executor who pleaded that he refused upon which the parties were at Issue The Bishop did certifie 1 Cro. 81. 3●● 2 Len. 180. quod non recusavit whereas in truth he had refused before the Commissary Tenner Serjeant moved to have the advice of the Court upon that matter and argued that the Court ought to write to the Commissary Which was denyed by the whole Court for he is not the Officer unto the Court to that purpose but the Bishop himself is the Officer And the party cannot aver against the Certificate of the Bishop no more than against the Retorn of the Sheriff The Court was also of opinion that the only remedy for the Defendant was by Action upon the Case against the Bishop for his false Certificate But it was moved That the Issue joyned upon the refusal ought to be tryed by Iury and not by the Certificate of the Bishop and so was the opinion of Windham and Walmesley Periam Where the Issue is whether the Executor did refuse before such a day or after there the tryal shall be by Iury contrary where the Issue is upon refusal generally because the refusal is before him as a Iudge as also is Resignation CCLXXXVII Sutton and Holloway and Dickons Case
