AN EXACT ABRIDGEMENT OF THE REPORTS Of that Eminent LAWYER Sir George Crook Knight, One of the JUDGES OF BOTH BENCHES, OF Such select Cases as were adjudged in the said Courts the time that he was Judge in either of them. WITH Two exact Tables of the Cases and Principal matter therein contained. Magnum in Parvo. London, Printed for Tho. Warren and J. Streeter, in the Year, 1658. Reader, I Here present you with a Scheme of a large volume, a Map of a world of Law: Through this optic, you may have a view of the most pleasurable, neat compact since my Lord Crook; he that was one of the Lamps of the Law, not being able to leave himself, has left you his oleum & operam to furnish yours. Though his modesty permits it not to appear the Punism of his place eclipsed not at all the authority of his Judgement, but in both Courts he was esteemed, as I may say, the 〈◇〉. For his book, besides the testimony of all our Judges, the authority of its matter, and his name, which Providence hath so protected, as on which none of these abortive works were ever patronized, may highly induce you to the reading, which much imports the improvement of your knowledge in the Laws. For my little Breviary, your opinion of my reverence to the whole, and its bulk, it may assure you, I have not added and I protest, to my best knowledge and understanding, not materially diminished, farewell. AN EXACT ABRIDGEMENT OF THE REPORTS, &c. Term. P. Car. 1. come. Ban. Hamond against Dod. DEbt upon Obligation.

Plaintiff pleads, quod been & verum est, but after G. expelled him, the Defendant demurs. Moved by Athowe, that the Replication was good, 2 E. 4. 15: If a Replication be not good, yet if the Bar be ill in substance, Judgement shall be for Plaintiff, 3 Rep. 52. But resolved this Replication is nought, because he sheweth not that he was lawfully expelled, 15 Eliz. Dyer 325. 26 H. 8. 3. And the Bar( that she surrendered in Court) is good, though she said not to the use of H. being alleged to be accepted by him, and confessed in the Replication, &c. Holm against Lucas, fol. 6.

Plaintiff replies, that neither he nor the other Obligors, nor any of them, paid, &c. & hoc paratus est verificare, & pred. Arscot sim. Jury found that Arscot did not pay, &c. This error assigned, That the verdict was not according to the Issue. For it might be paid by any of them. But it was held good, for that addition in the Bar was but surplusage. Judgement affi●med.

Plaintiff says in fact, that he paid ut supra, and that the Defendant had not delivered, &c. It was said no Consideration. For the Defendant received his money at that instant time, and a consideration ought to be beneficial to him to whom it is done, and trouble to the other, 9 E. 4. 19. Court agreed it to be a good consideration. Hobert, If he had promised to pay the money in the morning of that day, he would give him 5 l. it had been a good promise causa ve. Sir Upwel Caroons Case. An Alien dyes intestate, seized of divers Leases for years, and other personal Estate: Quest. Whether his nearest kindred being Aliens, may Administer, 2 E. 3. 21 H. 8.

Rep. 30. or Whether Writ and Declartion stand onely, or all proceedings by 1 E: 6, 7. ordered for presidents to be shewed. Upon no presidents, Resoved by the Court, That all proceedings upon this account, stand. For it is merely the svit of the party, and within 1 E. 6.

It was moved amongst the Judges, if it were lawful to grant an Habeas corpus to the Warden or Marshal, to have a Prisoner in Execution to appear at a day certain the next Term, and under that colour to let him at large in the Vacation. And they alleged it not to be lawful. But they are to have a convenient time to bring him to the Court and back again. And if they let him go at large longer than what the Law shall judge convenient, it is an escape. Sir John Isham against York, For words against a Justice of Peace: I have been often with Sir John Isham for justice, but could never get any at his hand but injustice. Found for the Plaintiff. And after moved in Arrest. For it is not said, that he offered him injustice in his Office of Justice, nor that he complained to him for justice, as a Justice of Peace, and could not have it, or the like.

Smith against Crashaw, & alios, An Action upon the Case, in nature of a Conspiracy, for falsely accusing the Plaintiff, and caused him to be falsely and maliciously indicted at the Assizes, for Treason. The Defendants pled special matter of excuse, and traverse the malicious accusation: But it was found against them, and damages &c. It was moved in arrest, &c. Because there is no president in our Books for the like Action, and men would then be deterred to p●osecute. But it was resolved that the Action lies: And the Statute and Writ says, If any falsely and maliciously conspire to procure any to be indicted. Here it is set forth, they did maliciously and falsely, &c. And it is traversed that they did not, &c: which is found against them. And by the opinions of all the Justices adjudged for the Plaintiff.

But Judgement for the Plaintiff. Bryan against Witherhead, In Ejectment. Upon a special Verdict. Bryan being seized in fee of a Copyhold Tenement, built six foot, enchroaching on the waste, and adjoined to the shop of the said house. The Lord, 33 Eliz. demises to Bryan the said waste for 100 years, who 1 Jac. surrendered the Tenement to the use of Mary in fee, and 5 Jac. assigns his term in the six foot to the said Mary, who 19 Jac. demised the said Tenement, called Key-shame, cum pertinentiis habend. for 70 years, who assigns over, &c. Whether by these words, The messsage called Keyshams, cum pertinentiis, this parcel of the shop so built and annexed to the other past or no. And resolved, not. For nothing could pass here but what was parcel of the house from the time, &c. Hobard conceived in a device it might pass. Sir Francis Vincent against Lesney, fol. 18. trespass quare accipitrem ipsius F. percussit. Found for the Plaintiff. And the Declaration was held by the Court to be good, though it shows not what kind of Hawk it was, a Goshawk, &c. not like Platers Case, 5 Rep. 35. And 2. It was held good, though be shows not that the Hawk was reclaimed, because it is in an Action of Trespass. And not like Spencers Case, 14 Eliz. Dyer. For there it was an Action of Trover and Conversion, which lies onely of an Hawk reclaimed, and which are known by vervels, bells, &c. whereby notice may be taken of her owner. Judgement pro quer. Farrer against English, fol. 19. Assumsit. Declares, whereas in consideration the Plaintiff would accept 12 l. 10 s. of the Defendant, in discharge of all accounts between the Plaintiff and this Defendants Brother, and seal an acquittance to the use of his brother, the Defendant promised his brother should seal the like to him. And in fact says, he did accept the 12 l. 10 s. &c. and sealed, &c. and that the Defendant hath not procured an acquittance from his Brother. Found for the Plaintiff. And the Defendant moved, That there is not a sufficient consideration why the Defendant should give this money ut supra. But not allowed. Court, He paying, and the other accepting is enough. 2. Because he alleges he gave a general acquittance, but shows none to the Court to judge the sufficiency. 3. Because it is said to be delivered to a stranger, who would or could not deliver it to the party himself. Crook for these two last, held the Declaration nought, but the other Justices contrary. For they said it was good, after the Plea wherein he denied the promise, but not performance. Hobart, If they had demurred because he shewed not the acquittance orherwise. judgement pro queen. white against Rysden, Action Case. The Plaintiff had lent the Defendant his horse from L. to Exon, and there to be safe delivered, &c. The Defendant did misuse his horse, and he demanded him of the Defendant at Exon, and he refused, but converted the said horse to his own use. Found for the Plaintiff, dam. 10 l. Moved in Arrest, that the Declaration is nought to join all these Torts in one Action. Also the trial ought to have been at L. where the beginning of the bargain was, and not where the conversion. Also, entire Damages is not good for all these Torts. But resolved, The trial good, and Damage well assest. 1. The Tort was, the not delivering according to bargain, and then refusing that, and converting, he may have action for both, and together. But had he demurred to the doubleness of the Declaration, otherwise. And so the trial is good, and Damages well assess'd Judgement 7 Rep. 1. Bulmers Case. Castle against hobbs. T. 21 Jac. Rot. 2827. It was resolved, that where the King is deceived in his Grant, nothing passes from him, and the Grant voided. For here the Rents and Services were granted, which are intended free-hold. And there being none such, the Grant merely voided. 5 Rep. 97. Goodales Case. Smith against Tinderstal. A man purchases Lands to him and his wife, and their heirs, afterwards( without his wife) lets this Land for sixty years to another, if they two lived so long. The Baron dyes, if this Lease shall bind the wife by 32 H. 8. cap. 28. Because she was no party to the Indenture was the question. yeluerton, Harvey, and Crook, conceived that it bound the wife. But Hobart doubted. It was after ended by Arbitrmeent without Argument. Hodgekinson against Whood. T. 19. Jac. Rot. 596. One seized of Soccage Lands in fee, and had issue by several venters. F. and W. devices this Land to F. to the use of himself for life, after to his heirs males, with divers Remains over. Afterwards makes a Lease for thirty years to W. to commence after his death. And so dyes. Lessee enters, and surrenders his term to F. who enters and assigns that term over, dyes without issue. W. enters as heir male, and makes a Lease to the Plaintiff. 1. Whether this Lease made to commence after his death,( so to begin when the device should enure) were a countermand of the device totally, or quoad the term onely, and shall stand as to the Inheritance. Resolved, no revocation of the Inheritance, but the Term, because they may stand together, and the intent is not expressly changed. Cook and Bullock, 2 Jac. one devised Land to his sister in fee, and after made a Lease to her for six years thereof, to begin after his decease, and delivers it to a stranger to her use, who delivers it not to her till his death, who then refused it, and claimeth the Inheritance. Resolved, because both made to one and the same person, they could not stand together; but if made to a third person, otherwise, 41, 42 Eliz. come. Banc. Coward against Marshal, one devised his Lands to one in fee, after devices the same to his wife for life. Resolved, both these devices may stand, and as one will. The second point, Whether device to F. and his heirs males, and for want of such Issue, the heirs males of the Devisor, and the heirs males of his body, and for default, &c. to the right heirs of the Devisor were a limitation in tail to the heirs males of the body of the Devisor, so as W. might claim ut supra. Adjournment. After adjudged for the Plaintiff. William plate against plumber M. 20. Jac. Rot. 17. 59. 1. Quest. Whether a Copyholder who comes to his Tenement by surrender of the Lessor, be such an Assignee as may have an Action of Debt or Covenant by the Statute, 32 H. 34. 2. Admitting he be not within the Statute, whether by the Common Law( Covenants being made by express words with the Lessor his Heirs and Assigns) the Assignee for these Covenents may maintain his Action. Finch, pro queen. Crawley pro Defendant. Adjournment. Knight against Harvey, Administrator of Harvey. H. 22. Jac. Rot. 635. Court ordered after Imparlance, and the Declaration and Plea entred, where Declaration was Anno 20. Regis nunc, to amend it, and put in Jacobi. Sir Ed. Cook Sheriff of Buck. Case, He took some exceptions to his Oath, which were resolved by all the Judges. 1. That he should seek to suppress all Heresies and errors, called Lolleries, and should assist the Church Ministers, which they conceived fit to be omitted out of the Oath. 2. To return reasonable Issue. They thought convenient in his Oath. 3. That he should return all Juries of the nearest and sufficientest persons. He excepted and said, the under-Sheriff did that. They said it is not so strictly intended that he himself should return. But it ought to be intended that he himself. For the Law says, qui per alium facit, per seipsum facit. 4. That he should cause the Statute of Winton, and that against Rogues, &c. to be executed. For the first he said is taken away; for the second, it belongs to the Justices. To which they said, That although Authority be given to the Justices, yet it took not away the Sheriffs right, who is the public Conservator. And also, that this had been an Oath continued and appointed divers years by Stat. And so they delivered their opinions. Sir R. Udal against Tindal, Recor. H. 22. Jac. Rot. 733. Trespass for taking wood. Upon a special Verdict it was found, If wood be minutae decimae then for the Defendan●. If not for the Plaintiff. It was urged, that wood sown in a field is not minutae, 3 Jac, Herttman and Boxley. But to the contrary, Dean and Chapter of Norwich, Pas. 43 Eliz. was cited. But all the Justices resolved, That wood growing in nature of an herb, the tithe thereof ought to be reputed for minutae decimae. Judgement accordingly. Mary Peacock Executor of Ri. Peacock against steer, In Ravishment of Ward, it was found for the Defendant, the Issue being upon the tenor. And it was questioned upon 4 Jac. cap. 3. Whether the Plaintiff shall pay any costs: Because she counts that she brings her Action upon her own possession. but. Harvey, and Crook held, that the Defendant shall have no costs. Yelver. Econt. ve M. Jac. Goldsmith and Lady plate. M. 3. Jac. Havers and Dacre. M. 38. 39. Eliz. Fetherstone and Aylybard. T. P. Anno 2. Car. come. B. Camp against Barn, FOr words against a shoemaker, He is a Bankrupt Rogue. Adjudged Actionable. For the word Rogue does not extenuate Bankrupt. And a shoemaker is such a person within the Statute of Bankrupts. For he lives by buying and selling, and not upon his Manual labour onely, as Husbandmen, and the like. Foster against Smith, In consideration the Defendant was indebted 7 l. he promised, &c. upon non Assumpsit, it is found against him. Moved that the Declaration is nought. He shows not the cause of the debt. And though it is found against him, the Declaration being nought, the Verdict aids not. Judgement pro Defendant. Anne Smith against Anne Lady Executrix, &c. Resolved, That where the Writ and Declaration is Anne Executrix of Sir W.W. & the issue Record and venire accordingly for a trial. & although( upon the trial by a Nisi prius Writ in London) the Writ of Habeas Corpora was to have Corp. Jurat. &c: between Anne Smith, and the Lady Anne Wade Executrix of Sir Henry. Yet it was but the fault of the Clerk, and may be well amended: Swain against Rogers. Exchequer Upon Battery. The Court need take no notice of the General Pardon, unless the party demand it, Smith against Richardson. Exchequer, fol. 33. If the Jury find less damages than the words of the Declaration import, it is not erroneous, being in disadvantage to the Plaintiff, and not material. For the Declaration being. ducentas centenas & dimidium, &c: Anglice, two hundred and an half. The Jury giving according to that rate, so as there is no prejudice to the Defendant. And the Issue being non Assumpsit, and found as is alleged. Good. A Case propounded hanging in the Court of Wards, Two Joyntenants to them and their heirs, one makes a conveyance to the use of himself and his wife for a jointure and advancement of his son. If this be within the statute 32. and 34 H. 8. for the King to have a third. The words of the Statute are, If any sole seized, or seized jointly with others, &c. There the King shall have a third upon such conveyance. But where two are jointly seized ut supra, and the one makes a conveyance, this is out of the Statute 32: H. 8. Butler and Bakers Case, 3. report and so resolved in Cur. Ward. Another. The same time another question was resolved; judgement given in Debt in Wales against a Defendant there inhabiting, who dyes intestate. One in London takes Letters of Administration: Whether execution may be in Wales, or that the Record may be removed by Certiorare into Chancery, and sent therehence by Mitimus into the Kings Bench: And agreed by Justices, it could not; For he may not have a Scire facias in any Court, but where the Judgement was given. Crane against Crampton. Upon promise to pay you so much at the day of your marriage, It was said by Hutt. Harvey and yeluerton, that he need not show in his Declaration, that he gave notice of his marriage before he married, but that the Defendant is bound at his peril to take notice: and a postea requisitus serves without showing the day of the request. Crooke doubted thereof, for there was a president, that for not alleging notice Judgement was reversed, Notwithstanding Judgement for the plaintiff. 2. Car. come. Banc. Cryps against Grysil, 10. Car. Rot. 1932, IT was adjudged that these words in a Will in writing( all my Mortgages) make a good device of the Lands mortgage. Reymund against the Hundred of Oking, In an Action upon the Statute of Winton, the Servant was robbed, and the Master brought the Action; It was urged that the Master ought to swear that he knew none of the Thieves, as well as the Servant: because by 27. Eliz. he that brings the Action should swear, but that was over-ruled; And adjudged that the Master may well bring the Action, and the Servant who was robbed a good Wirness. Cooks entries, where the like is brought by the Master, and the Servant swear, Sir Robert Bannisters Case. A person leases his Rectory confirmed by Bishop and Patron succeeding, neither of them Bishop or Patron at the time of the Lease resolved good, 5. report 15. Newcombs Case. Aylesworth against Chadwell exchequer, This Error was assigned upon a Judgement in debt, the parties being at issue, the awarding the Roll was of have. fa. ret. die Mart. post craft. pure. and the venire was ret. die sabb. post Octab. pure. And another, that the return of the venire was before the Teste, but by the Court, being a judicial Process, and the fault of the clerk, amendable. brown against Tayl●r, H. 22. Jac. Rot. 1669. One seized of Lands in capite infeoffs Spencer, & alios to the use of himself for life, and after to such persons and such uses, as he should appoint by his Will; He makes his Will and devices that his Tenants shall enjoy their Farms 20. years after his death, and the rent of his Land to R. for life; and devices to his Wife all his Land in &c. for life. Agreed that they shall take by the device and not by the declaration of Uses; For after the feoffment he had a qualified fee in him as owner, and so as he may make his Will, and device the rent, and likewise the Land being held by Knights service, the device is voided for a third, that here when he makes his Will without reference to the Feoffment, the Law construes it, as the Will of one who is owner, and may so dispose, and not as a Declaration of Uses which is an Authority only; And declaring that his Tenants shall hold their Farms &c. cannot be but by Declaration. Three Justices held, that he could not dispose of the Rent, by reason of the said Words, but the Estate only 6. rep. 17. 18. 10. rep. 85. Lowes Case. M. 2. Car. come. Banc. Love against platter, P. 2. Car. Rot. 386. FOr words against an Attorney, Thou art the dishonestest Attorney in England, and if any be more dishonest than thou art, he deserves to be hanged: moved in arrest of Judgement; He does not say he was dishonest in his practise as Attorney: and doth not aver there were dishonest Attorneys in England. Thou art as very a Thief as any in England; No Judgement, because he did not aver ut supra. Cur. advis. Windsor against the Inhabitants of Farnham. A decree made by Commissioners upon 43. Eliz. for charitable uses, & upon exceptions in Chancery, and there examined, heard, & confirmed in part, & altered in part: cannot be reexamined upon a bill of Review, because it takes it Authority by Act of Parliament, and that mentions but one examination, and so upon 37. H. 8. Tutter against Inhabitants of Dacon and Casho T. 2. Car. Rot. 1717. Upon the Statute of Winton, and 27. Eliz, 13. of Hue and Cry, upon Not guilty pleaded found against them, after moved in arrest &c. because notice is alleged to be given at S. which is in another County, and he saith prope Hund. ubi rober. &c. and not prope locum ubi &c. according to Statute 27. Eliz. T. 30. Eliz. rot. 1425 H. 36. Eliz. rot. 506. The words of the Statute 27. Eliz. were insisted on, but on view of a president, 5. Jac. New entries 348. where such an Action was brought against the Hundreds of Longtree and C. and the robbery alleged to be at T. in divisis Hundred, predict. and notice, and Hue and Cry alleged to be at another place in the division of the said Hundred adjudged good. And the Court adjudged the first Action good, P. 21. Jac. rot. 488. Banco R. Foster and the Hundred of Spelthorn and Istleworth, where the like was adjudged good: the robbery at B. prope devis. &c. and notice at H. prope devisis Hundred predict. Bowden against maltster, T. 18. Jac. rot. 1051. Copyholder in Fee surrenders to the use of his Will who devices in tail; The question was, when a Copyholder in Fee surrenders to the use of one in tail, being no custom to warrant, whether it be a tail by the Statute W. 2. devis. condic. or a Fee-simple conditional at Common-Law; yeluerton held it was an Estate tail by the Equity of the Statute; For all Statutes wherein no prejudice accrues to the Lord or Tenant by alteration of any interest, service, &c. there the general words of such Acts extend to Copyholds, Statute of Merton extends to Copyhold Lands, West. 2. cap. 3. extend to Copyhold Lands, 32. H. 8. cap. 9. against Champerty, 28. cap. extends to Copyholds 4. rep. 26. 30. For he said were not Copyholds within donis Cond. a Formedon in discender would not lie of Copyholds; And he said that here the Copyholder might well hold of the donor 11. rep. Nevills Case, and hold over of his Lord: and he said that an entail here might be cu● by a recovery in the Mannor Court, 23. H. 8. Kir. recocery 27. & 19. H. 6. 64. 26. H. 6. 6. ploughed. 59. Litt. 16. Plow. 2. 15. H. 8. 24. Dyer. 192. Old book. Entrys, 129. But Hutt. Harvey and Crooke to the contrary, and that it was a Fee-simple conditional, and not within donis conduit. An Elegit extends not to Copyholds, 27. H. 8. cap. 10. extends not to Copyholds, 31. H. 8. cap. 32. H. 8. 32. whereby joint and Tenants in come. compellable to make partition extend not to Copyholds, 32. H. 8. 28. extends no●, and the reason is because it will be prejudicial to Lords. 2. They held that in respect of the baseness of their Estate, the Statute never intended a remedy for their alienations nor them. And the intent of the Statute was, no Estate to be entailed, but such as might be given by dead, such are not Copyholds: and then also because Copyholders at the time of the making the Statute were Tenants at will of the Lord. 3. If Copyholds might be entailed, a perpetuity of such Estates would be maintained, for a Fine cannot be levied to bar the entail, nor a recovery. 4. Lastly they held that neither Estate tail, nor after possibility of issue extinct, can be allowed: For before that Statute all Inheritances were Fee conditional. But the general opinion of all the books were, that an Estate in Copyhold Lands so limited to a man, and the heirs of his body, is a Fee-simple conditional at Common-Law, and so adjudged. Richard Hodges against Meyse and Scriven. Upon a recovery in debt of 200 l. in a Court of pypowders held, second, consuet. civit. an Action is now brought for suffering the party in Execution to go at large; Verdict for the plaintiff moved in arrest of Iudgement. 1. He sets not forth that the Court is held by custom and Charter, and then their process voided. 2. Because a pypowder Court holds not pleas but for battery's or contracts in market and not debt, 10. rep. 77. 8. rep. 133. Judges conceived, the Court being styled, a Court of Pyepowder, which is incident to fairs, &c. shall not be intended a Court unless shown to be held by Patent &c. And here the Sheriff who is to take the advantage ought to show it; As Stewards when they make Certificates out of inferior Courts, ought to show how the said Courts &c. And these words here second. cons. &c. being in the imparlance Roll, and the omission in the issue Roll being vitium clerici might be amended; judgement pro quer. 13. E. 4. 8. Baldry against Packard, T. 2. C●r. rot. 617. It was urged, if the general pardon discharges the offence which is the Princip●ll, that the costs thereupon are discharged; The Case was this, there was Defamation sued before the Commissary of the Bishop of U. where there was sentence and costs taxed, Defendant appeals, and the general pardon was pleaded, which pardons this offence, and the first sentence was reversed, costs were given to the appellant. A Prohibition was prayed. Resolved by the Court no Prohibition; For although the pardon hath discharged the offence of Defamation quoad any punishment, yet in respect of the costs which be not discharged by the pardon( being assest before the day to which the pardon relates) cook 5. fol. 51. A consultation was granted, and they may in the appeal assess costs upon the reversing the first sentence, because it appears there was an undue vexation. Bishop Chich against Freedland, P. 1. Car. Rot. 607.

Admitting it a nuisance, if every one may pull up and cast down the gate at their pleasure. hid, Jones, and Whitlock, in the first point held it a nuisance. For the passage is not so free, and old people are troubled. Crook seemed not. That not any nuisance in itself, being so small a trouble, but much for public good, to preserve corn and grass from cattle. And appears, there are divers gates in high-ways, which always have been allowed. And if it were malum in se there never should be any, 2 E. 4. 2. The erecting of a gate upon the way is pleaded, and to be admitted lawful enough. To the second, they held every person may remove the nuisance, although the usual way is by Indictment.

As it was true that Nuper 'vice come. must necessary imply, that he was not then Sheriff, at the delivery of it to the new Sheriff: So it is to be construed, that by Nuper 'vice come. he was Sheriff at the time of the panel made. And had he returned it without those words, it had been good. Sheppards Case. Declares for breaking close, &c. Defendant justifies by, &c.

And though it was objected pro quer. he was( refusing to take bail) a trespasser ab únitio, as he who enters into a Tavern, and takes a c●p away. Yet Court, justifying the arrest, &c. though he might take, and refused bail, that makes not the arre●t tortuous. Probably Action of the Case lay for detaining after bail tendered.

And not like Dyer. 186. when an Estate is limited to one or two to the use of others and their heirs, the first Estate is not enla●ged by this implication.

Court, There is no complete Nomination till the agreement of the fourth man the 25. And it had been good, had they nominated before the time expired of making their arbitrament, When none is made within the time. Wats against Baker. Resolved, That a Tender of amends for Trespass, after an Arrest upon a Latitat, comes too late, as well as after an original Writ. For the Statute intends it, to be immediately after the Trespass, and before any svit commenced. tithes of Fishes are paid in Ireland, and so in cornwall for fishing on the Sea, paid to the person of the Parish where they are landed. In Yarmouth, tithes for Herrings. Tildens Case. A Cerciorari was awarded to the mayor and Jurats of Hythe. They return that it is one of the Cinque Ports, and that none of the Kings Writs run there. An alias Certiorari was prayed, commanding them such a day to be in person, and show their Charters and Evidences, and answer their former contempt. Noy shewed a Record, 43 E. 3. Rot. 19.

Defendant pleads, that the place was usually dangerous, and not passable, and that they had stopped, &c. But that one Carew had made as good a way in his Close joining to the said Highway, &c. And that before the laying out the said way, an ad quod Dam. issued, to inquire whether it were to the damage, &c. if the King granted licence to the Defendants to stop the said way: And the Inquisition taken, and found no damage, &c. Upon Demurrer, the Plea was held ill; Because the Allegation, that Carew laid out a way, not appearing by what Authority he did it, is nought: For he may stop it when he will; nor can any justify the going there, or the Inhabitants bound to watch there, to make amends if robbery be committed there. Also, the pleading the ad quod Dam. &c. is nothing in not pleading he obtained licence. For that is but to enable him to obtain licence. Regist. 253, 255. Ter. M. 8 Car. Banc. Reg. Halley against Stanton. T. 8 Car. Rot. 1405. FOr words. He( meaning the Plaintiff) was arraigned at W. for stealing of twelve Hogs, and if he had not made good friends, it had gone hard with him. Moved in Arrest, &c. For to say, he was arraigned for Felony, is not any cause of action: For honest men may be suspected and arraigned, &c. 31 Eliz. of an Attorney, You were cooped up for forging Writs, adjudged not actionable. But resolved by the Court, That it is actionable, for these words adding, If he had not made good friends, it had gone hard with him. Which shows, he conceived him guilty. And being avert'd that he never was arraigned, it appears the more malicious: and it is not like the cited Case, and 34 Eliz. Bayly and Charrington, Thou wert arraigned for two Bullocks. He says not there for stealing of two Bullocks. T. 8 Jac. Thou wert in W. Goal, for a robbery committed, &c. With an averment, that he never was in W. Goal, adjudged actionable.

Words of a Doctor of physic, Thou art a drunken Fool and Ass, thou wert never Scholar, nor art not worthy to speak to a Scholar, and that I will prove and justify, Moved in arrest of Judgement, That the action lies not. For the first, Thou art a Fool and Ass, are but words of scorn: and it appears not they were spoken in regard to his profession. And the other words touch him onely in his Scholarship, and not in his art. And a man may be no good Scholar, and yet a good physician. Compared to Buckleys Case. Cur. Advis. After, 9 Car. adjudged pro quer. Manning & ux. against Fitzherbert. Upon the Case, for that ex mal●tia the Defendant crimen feloniae imposuit, and caused her to be brought before a Ju●… ice, and said before him ad tunc & ibid. that he charged her with Felony for stealing an Hog, &c. Moved in arrest, &c. Because, 1. They do not say, he falso imposed felony, &c. 2. He shows not the day, and place where, and whether he brought her. 3. For joining action for words and conspiracy together. But none of these allowed. For when they say ex malitia, &c. it implies falso: and that he caused her to be brought before, &c. it is coupled with the other, and shall be intended the same time and place. And the other matter is not in nature of a Conspiracy, but aggravation of the false accusation. Judgement for the Plaintiff. Chapman against Allen. H. 7 Car. rot. 419. If Kine be put to one to pasturage, and afterwards the owner sells them to another, who demands the Kine of the Depasturer, who because there was money due for the feeding, denies the delivery. Afterwards a stranger, by the appointment of the first owner, pays what was due, and had the Kine delivered to him. Conceived by Jones and Crook, that this denial upon demand and delivery to the stranger, was a Conversion, and that he cannot detain them against the buyer, but is put to his action against him who put them to pasturage, Inn-keeper or tailor, may detain till satisfaction. Judgement according. Johns against Staynar. H. 8 Car. rot. 243. error of Judgement in Ejectment. Assigned, because the original Writ, bears another date, than the Ejectment. Rolls, it was good notwithstanding, and that it shall not be intended the same original. For as an action is brought and tried in Middlesex, and the original certified in London, it shall be intended not the same original, but rather that it was tried without original, and then aided by the Statute. Harris against Richards. Tr. 7 Car. In consideration one B. was bound in 20 l. to the Plaintiff, and the Defendant in 50 l. to one H. In consideration the Plaintiff would fo●bear the 20 l. and compound with H. for the 50 l. and the interest, promised to pay the 20 l. and the said 50 l. and all interest should be due. In fact says, he did forbear the 20 l. and paid the 50 l. and 15 l. interest, and such day and year gave notice, &c. and requested payment, &c. Moved in arrest, &c. First, because it is no lawful consideration to pay intere●…. But this was to compound, which is a good consideration, and it is not unlawful consideration to pay no more than permitted. Secondly, resolved there was a good consideration for the Defendant to pay 20 l. because 'tis that the Plaintiff at his request would forbear it. And it was sufficient( if it be alleged he paid so much and required it) without alleging notice of the quantity or time. Judgement according. Burgoyne against Spurling. Tr. 7 Car. rot. 373.

They agreed, If one devices his Land which he hath by lease to his Executor for life, the remainder over, that there ought to be special assent thereto by the Executor, otherwise it is not executed.

And he urged, the Terr-tenant ought not to be charged without the Heir, therefore the Heir ought to be summoned. For until it be returned, no Heir, or that the Heir has no land, Terr-tenants not to be charged: For the Heir might have something to pled. Also, the Heirs land is rather to be charged, because he has not contribution against Terr-tenant, as Terr-tenant hath. And if Heir be within age, the parole demurs: Of the same opinion Richard.

It was moved, That a request to make Letter of Attorney to surrender, implies a request to make a surrender. But not allowed. For it ought to be an express request to make a surrender, and not an implied one. Lancaster against Keyley & al.

In fact, that the Plaintiff delivered Wines to I.S. who gave him a Bill of Exchange to I.N. who accepted, and refused to pay, whereupon this action, &c. error assigned, because he does not show that he was a Merchant at the time of the delivery, being the action is grounded upon their Custom.

E. of Notingham levies a fine of the lands in question, to the use of Sir W. Howard, and Eliz. his wife for her jointure, and to the Heirs-males of the body of the said Sir William, Remainder over. Before this fine levied, when the Estate was onely settled by Indenture, Sir William Howard let the land to Tho: and John Humphreys for 21 years. Sir W. dyes, John Humphreys dyed. Thom.

Sir Charles entred, and makes a Lease. Blunden enters and ousted him. Whether there be a Diseisin to Sir charles, and if there be, who should be the Diseisor and Tenant to the Freehold. Jones, Berkley, and Crook cited Co. Litt. 153. A Diseisin is, when one enters intending to usurp the possession, and to ouste another of his Freehold. And it is at the election of him to whom the wrong is done, if he will allow him to be a Diseisor. Therefore if one receives my rent, it is at my election, if I will charge him with a Disseisin, by bringing an Assize, or other action, or have an account, 7 E. 4. 6. So if one enters as Guardian in Soccage, where he is not, it is at the election of the Infant to bring an Assize, or charge him as Guardian, and then admit him in without wrong, 49 E. 10. 40 E. 3. 35 and 33 H. 6. 2.

If Tenant at Will makes a lease for years, which is a greater Estate than he may make, that act is a Disseisin.

There is a final Judgement against the Feme, for the whole, where she pleads but part, and against her Heirs, where she claims but for life. This an error. Judgement reversed.

One o●ght not to prescribe to have Turbary in anothers soil, as appertaining to his said Mannor. Answered, That to the Prescribe so is good: For being by Prescription, it is intended this liberty was before the creation of Freeholders, whose Estate is extracted out of the Demeans of the Mannor. But moved, That the trial was awarded( by Ve. Fac.) from Ridge, where it ought to have been of the Mannor: For Ridge is alleged to be but parcel of the Mannor. For this the Court held it to be a mis-tryal, and not aided by the Statute of Jeofayle, and a Ven. Fac. awarded de novo. Townly against Chaloner in khan. Foster and Townley being Assignees in trust of a lease for Chaloner an Infant. Foster took all the profits, and was in arrear, &c. and unable to satisfy.

And resolved, that Townley shall be accountable and answerable for no more than came to his hands, and not compelled to pay what Foster could not. Eyres against Taunton. After a second Sc.

Fac. ought to be sued where recognisance acknowledged; But when sued there, and the party returned dead, it may be sued against the Heir or Terr-tenant in any County where the land is. Then that it was no good trial by nisi pri. for Issue joined in the Chancery, and the Record delivered to the Kings Bench to be tried, it ought there to have been tried. But all the Court against that. For Issue joined betwixt party and party, it may well be tried by nisi pri. out of this Court. Randal against Scory. P. 8 Car. Rot. 422. error. The Declaration was of land leased to Rob.

And Court held a plain variance. For though it cannot be construed to be the beast of Bellun and Bellun, yet the reservation is, that it shall be paid onely after the death of Chich. Bellun and Bellun, So as they are the parties, after whose death the limitation of the Har●ots are to be paid. fens Case. It was moved, that Fishmongers are not within the Statute of 5 E. 6. of engrossing.

He is indicted, that he bought ea intent. ad revendend. cont. form. Statuti, and is found guilty, it shall be intended he engrossed, and sold unreasonably. Then it was moved, that he was tried the same Sessions, indicted, and therefore ill, and there should have been Sc. Fac. returnable the next Sessions, 22 E. 4. Coron. 44. disallowed. For it is the common course, Kellway 159. The trial before Justices, Goal Delivery, may be the same day. Porter against Hutchman. Bulstrod cited Pas. 7 Jac. 407 Rot.

First error, because by 21 Jac. every common Informer shall be sworn before his information be received. That the fact was within the year before, and within the same County. Disallowed. For no parcel of the Record, but a direction to the Offices. 2. Because Informers upon that Statute cannot have the moiety, but it is given to the Corporation. Disallowed. For it is to be understood, that the Forfeiture given to the King there, goes to the Corporation, and the Informer has his moiety still. Judgement affirmed. Parker against tailor. M. 8 Car.

But as here it imports no scandal, for he shows he came over eight years ago, since which he might become a rich man, and in good repute. Richardson of that opinion. For slander ought to be express, and not taken by intendment or implication. Therefore if of a Merchant, He was a poor man within these seven years, or the like, no action lies. Jones, Berkley, and Crook held, the action lies, For the cases before charge not any crime, but here he charges him with once being broken, & qui semel malus, semper presumitur esse malus in eodem genere. And here they are alleged to be falsò & malitiose spoken. And if the Defendant had spoken them with other intention, he should have shew'd it by special Plea. Judgement pro quer.

Upon reference to Jones, Berkley and Crook. First, they resolved the Declaration to be ill, because he does not say of what Liberty he was Bailiff, and that he had the returns of Executions and Writs. Secondly, he had an Attachment to arrest him in Trespass, intending after his appearance to declare in Debt; which cannot be in any Court, but the Kings Bench. And there when he puts in bail, he is supposed to be custod Mares. wherefore they held Declaration nought. Bawderock against Mackaller. Upon an Information for simony.

For that onely mentions where one comes in by simony Presentation, or Coll●tion. Disallowed, because within an equal mischief against which the Statute provides. 3.

Sugar. By virtue of which, &c. it was urged, that the Plea was not good. 1. Because he does not show the value of the goods and debts due to the Testator, and what he owed, that the Court might judge whether she had cause of sale or not. 2. The Will giving authority to sell, and he pleading a sale by indenture enrolled, &c. by virtue, &c. it is not good: For if the sale be good by the authority of the Will, he is not in by the Statute of Uses, but by the device. Jones said, that in 22 Jac. Davy and Urburs case, both these points were judged. 〈◇〉 against Inhabitants of the Hundred 〈◇〉 In Hue and Cry, one error insisted on was, The action is brought by the party and the King, yet neither upon the joining issue, nor Ve.

Though for saying, he's a Knave, and a cheating Knave, a Prohibition was granted. Chapmans Case. It was resolved upon error, That Common Barretry is an offence against divers Statutes ( viz.) Maintenance. 2. Resolved, that upon the Indictment he appearing gratis, a Ven. Fac. awarded the same Assizes is good, either upon appearing gratis, or if he were in Goal. 3. It was objected for error, because it is ideo in misericordia, where it should ideo cap●at. But upon view of the Record, it is ideo Committitur Goalae. So there needs no Capiat. and the ideo miserecoidia is but surplusage. Cur. Advis. Pridgeons Case.

Whereas he was indebted to the Plaintiff for Rent arrear, in consideration whereof he assumed to pay, &c. Being moved in Arrest, &c. it was held by the Court, that the action lies not: For it is a real contract, if upon a Lease for years, and a general Assumpsit lies not for it, no more than upon a recognisance. Also, it may be Rent-charge, Rent-seck, or Rent-service. And then it is more stronger against the Plaintiff. But had he alleged, in consideration he should forbear till such a day, then otherwise. Lord Hastings against Dowglas. T. 8 Car. Rot. 1331. The great question in this case was, whether( a wife being possessed of jewels as her Paraphernalia, and ordinary wearing) the husband may device them from the wife, Jones and Berkley, that if there be no debts to pay, or assets to pay those debts, besides the jewels, there the property vests immediately after his death in the wife.

Berkley, this permission of the husbands for her to wear them, is as a gift to her, 11 H. 4. 83. that by the custom of London in elsewhere, the wife shall have the moiety of the goods, Her husband might in this case give them in his life time, but by his will he cannot dispose them to her prejudice. Whereupon they concluded for the Defendant. But Richardson and Crook held, that the wife cannot take these, but according to the husbands disposition by Will. But had the husband made no Will, but left them to the disposition of the Law, there( had the contest been betwixt the wife and Executor, or Administrator) she might have them as a Paraphernalia. And it is not like the case of 11 H. 4. 83. And now the husband can give nothing to the wife, they being but one person in Law. And as to the objection, that though the Husband may dispose them by act in his life, yet not by will. Answered, That a man who hath a thing real in anothers right, or a Chattel personal, though give, yet he cannot device it. So an Executor may give, but not device, because he hath it in auter droit, But of all Chattels personal, which the wife, though had them before marriage, the absolute property by the marriage is vested in the husband, and he may device them. And to the cases of the Custom in London, &c. They agreed to be good Law. But it is supposed, that was for the necessary things, 19 H. 6. 14. A Feme for her Quarentine may have her living de Communi; but she may not take any thing, unless for necessity. And the Common Law is against, that the wife may make her will, and dispose these Paraphernalia invito marito. But of Bonds, or things in action, by the husbands assent, she may make her Executors. 4 H. 6. 31. 31. 39 H. 6. 27. 26 E. 3. 71.

Keeling, clerk of the Crown said so, without any consent of the parties, and against the will of the Prosecutors.

Defendant pleads, that all this is six years sin●e, and so pleads the Statute. Court held, Because he failed of his promise, to save harmless, and suffered this Judgement to be against him, which is damage to the party, though Execution be not taken out, that the action well lies, and the S●atute hinders not. And the damages shall be e●tire, though the breach be but in part. As if one assume to pay fifty quarters of, &c. in five years, every year ten quarters; if he fail of payment of any, an Assumpsit lies, and damages shall be for all. Margaret Harts Case.

It is not now assignable. Then it was alleged, that neither day nor place of the marriage was alleged in the Bishops Certificate. But disallowed. For the day is not material. And for Thoro & mensa, it shows they continued as man and wife, and ver. matrimonium is as good as legetimum. Sharps Case. He was indicted of Perjury upon the 5 of Eliz. for swearing to an Interrogatory in Chancery, that he knew the Land in question, that it was the soil of, &c. and parcel of his Mannor of, &c. ubi revera it was not. It was said by Richardson and Crook, that there can be no Indictment upon this Statute, but where it is shown that the deposition is upon the matter in question, and conducing to the issue, and the party may thereby be prejudiced. And Richard. that it is usual in the Star-chamber to dismiss Bills where this defect. Be●kley, that to say he knew the Land in question, makes it out, that the Land was in question. Cur. Advis.

And if it were, it is not an offence against the Common Law but the Ch●r●h-Canons, and therefore examinable onely in the Spiritual Court, until 31 Eliz. and so it was adjudged in 40, 41 Eliz. upon a Bond. Defendant pleaded simony. And 8 Jac. betwixt Taverner and Smith, upon 31 Eliz, Resolved, he ought to suppose a corrupt, and not a Symonaical contract. Fl●tcher to the contrary. Richard. being to pay so much for his pains and not for the Presentation, doubted. Adjournat. Ass. 361. Judgement was reversed. The King against Archbishop of Canterbury and Pryst. T. 4 Car. Rot. 441. It was argued by all the Judges in a Quare Impedit. First, that if an Avoidance of a Church h●ppening, and continuing voided divers years, so as the King hath ti●le to present by lapse, and the King takes not advantage thereof, but dies, whether his Successor may take advantage of this lapse, or be barred by the 25 E. 3. cap. 1. leg. verb. It was argued, that this Statute extends to all the Successors & Heirs of E. 3. Vernon, That the King hath not good title. But all the other Judges, That the King hath good title to present by the lapse incurred in the time of his Predecessor, and is not restrained by 25 E. 3. For by the express words, all his Rights and Titles which the King had in anothers right, are saved. Berkley and some of the Justices doubted, whether a Presentation by lapse shall be said to be in anothers right. All the others agreed, it shall: For though he present ratione prerogativae, yet he presents as in right of the Patron, 14 E. 3. quar. imped. 54. 22 H. 6. 29.

If the Incumbent might resign, whether by his Resignation the Church is become voided, and whether the Church by 21 H. 8. by a acceptance of second bnfice, being both with cure, be absolutely voided. It was argued by Vernon and Hutton, That the Church is not absolutely voided de facto, but voidable quoad the Patron, and until the Patron presents, the other remains Incumbent, and then he remaining so, and in possession for three years, until the pardon, 21 Jac. which establisheth him in possession, that he cannot be ousted by King, or any other, And is so Incumbent, that he may have debt for his tithes, and is chargeable for the payment of Subsidies and fifteenths. But all the others held, That the Church was absolutely voided de facto & ●ure, by taking a second bnfice. For at Common Law before 21 H. 8. by reason of Ecclesiastical Canons, the first Church was in Jure voided, so as the Pat●on might present thereto if he would, but the Patron not bo●nd to take no●ice of that avoidance, until dep●ivation. 9 E. 3. 2. 5 E. 3. 9. 10 E. 3. 1. 14 E. 3. ●0.

And it was denied, that he might have debt for not setting out tithes. And they held, that the pardon of 21 Jac. helps him not. First, because it is no offence within the body of the Act; for it is no offence against the King. 2. It was never intended by the pardon to dispense with pluralities, or to make a plenarty of a Church absolutely voided. And adjudged according. Earl of Kent against Steward & al. H. 8 Car. Rot. 235.

And after such Eviction to the use of the said Earl and ux. until they should be satisfied of the profits for their loss. Earl & ux. by Fine conveys to E. of Kent, who enters upon the Assignees of B. Resolved, that he as Assignee might not enter, but that the use upon the Eviction ought first to rest in E. of Shrewsbury and his Heir, and that this Conveyance before Eviction, cannot give him title of Entry as Assignee.

It was not yet agreed by the Court. But it was urged to be no simony, and not offence within the Common Law: For M. 40, 41. Eliz. Adjudged, an Oligation for payment of money. Defendant in pleading, shows it was for performance of a Symonaical contract. Upon Demurrer, Not within the cognizance of the Common Law, and therefore no plea, 8 Jac. He ought to suppose a corrupt, and not Symonaical contract. And simony by the Statute is not like that for Usury, or 23 H. 6. for Sheriffs.

It was moved by Grimston, that a Statute Staple not being yet forfeited, is not pleadable, and cited 5 Rep. 28. Harisons case. But the Court held, that Harisons case was a Statu●e defeazanced for the performance of Covenants, which might never be broken. But this was a Statute to pay money at a day certain, which is allowable before d●bts upon Bond. Rolls took exception to the Plea in Bar, because it is not per scriptum suum obligatorium nec se●und. formam Statuti, &c. And of this opinion was the whole Court. Co. Rep. 4. fo. 64. Fulwoods Case.

The case, C. seized in fee of Soccage Lands, devised ut sequit. having three sons, T. F. and H. I device to T. my Lands in H. and to his Heirs male, remainder to F. and his Heirs. Item, I give to F. my house in W. and his Heirs male, and for want, &c. to H. and his Heirs male, &c. And then, Also, I will, that all Bargains, Grants and Covenants which I have from, &c. my son H. shall enjoy, and his Heirs for ever, and for lack of Heirs of his body, to remain to my son F. for ever. Upon this two questions: First, whether H. hath an Estate for life onely by this device or Tail. It was urged, that the last clause to H. where it is to him and his Heirs, and for lack of Heirs of his body, to remain to F. and the Heirs of his body, extends to all the foregoing clauses, and gives him a tail in all Lands devised to him, because he devised to T. and F. estates of inheritance. All the Justices agreed it to be but an estate for life, and that the words in a Will which disinherits the Heir at Common Law, ought to have an apparent intent. And that the word Also makes no more then And, 6 Rep. 16. 22 E. 3. 16. 7 E. 6. device 38. Dy. 1. 9 Rep. 127.

Being arrested for debt by the name of Henry Ferrers Knight( when in truth he was none) he and his man in the rescous, killed the Bailiff, and upon the Indictment, it was resolved, that the Bailiffs had no authority by that Warrant to arrest him, and the killing, upon the executing it, no murder, nor manslaughter. Dorchester against Web. M. 9 Car. Rot. 373. In this case, first it was urged, That when an Obligee makes the Obligor his Executor, it is a release in Law of the Debt: And so when he makes one of the Obligors his Executor. And secondly, though plene Administ. be pleaded, the Plaintiff may take Judgement presently, and expect when the Executor hath assets, 8 Rep. 134. But it was agreed, 1. That when Debtee makes the Debtor his Executor, it is not absolutely a discharge of the debt, but a mere suspension of the action: As, where Feme Debtee, takes Debtor to husband, it is quasi, a release in Law, because they may not be sued. And personal actions once suspended, are perpetually suspended. But where Executor of Debtor, is made Executor to Debtee, he hath nothing in his own right, but to use an action in the right of another. And they denied the Law to be as in 8 Rep. 134. For if it be found that he hath fully administered, the Judgement shall be against the Plaintiff. But if found that he hath assets, though of a small value, Plaintiff shall have Judgeme●t for the entire Debt, but Execution of as much as is fo●…. But not barred for the residue, and if more assets come after, he may have a Sc. Fac. 8 E. 4. 3. 10 E. 4. 17. 21 E. 4. 81. 21 H. 7. 31. 8 Rep. 136. Sir William Wallers Case.

Defendant, That she did not limit. Plaintiff replies, that she by her Will in writing did, &c. Defendant demurs, for that she ought to have made a dead, and not a Will. First, That a Feme covert cannot make a Will. Court, That though Feme covert cannot make a Will without her husbands assent, yet that Declaration, in form of a Will, good enough. Richardson, It had been adjudged upon a Conveyance, wherein was a proviso, one might revoke the uses by writing under hand and seal, that being by Will under hand and seal, judged good. Holms Case.

Because he alleges not a special request for the payment of the 40l. for a general licet sepius, &c. serves not. All agreed, that showing by the Plaintiff, that he hath performed on his part, it is good in substance, though not in form, and the Defendant might have demurred. And to the second, They agreed, that in Assumpsit to pay money, though upon request, the general allegation licet sepius requisite. &c. is sufficient, and the bringing the action is sufficient request for money.

And so 8 Rep. 96. Maynard on the contrary, that it was a forfeiture, for she ought to take notice at her peril: and a difference is between a condition, and this voluntary act of the Feoffment. And to the other, he shall be intended heir, because it is found he had unic. fill. suum. Jones and Berkley, This warranty no bar, and that he shall not be intended to be heir. Crook è cont. For it is found, the verdict calls him fill. suum hered. apparent. and in a special verdict intendment sufficeth, especially in this case, 5 Rep. Goodales case. For the second, they all resolved, had the warranty been well found, the sons estate was bound, and her joining in the Feoffment was a forfeiture, and that she at her peril ought to take notice. Upon the first, Advis. vol. Mead against Thurman. Upon suggestion, that by custom, for Tares cut and given to Plough-Cattel, and for Head-lands sewed with corn for that purpose, tithes are not payable. A Prohibition was granted. Dymock against faucet. M. 10 Car. Rot. 148. Words in London spoken of a Captain, Thou art a Pimp; and further, That he was a common Pimp, and notorious, which he would justify. Berkley and Crook held the words actionable, Jones and Bramston not. But all agreed, that the exposition and averment, that Piffe is known to be a name for a Bawd, is good Judgement stayed. Nichols against Walker & al. T. 10 Car. Rot. 222. It was resolved in Trespass. That a rate unduly taxed, the Warrant of the Justice of Peace for the levying it, will not excuse the Trespass. For not like where an Officer makes an arrest by Warrant out of the Kings Court, which if it be error, the Officer must not contradict, because the Court hath the General Jurisdiction: But here the Justices have but a particular Jurisdiction, to make Warrant to levy rates well assest. N●tter against Percival Bret. Berkley cited the resolution of a case, That where a Testament is made of land and goods, no Prohibition lies to stop the probate thereof for the said goods, and in such case the testament being mixed of lands and goods, probate shall be of the entire Will, and not of parcels. Dyer 254. And Jones held with him, that a consultation shall be, but that it shall be special. And Register, 246. that Wills of Lands in London are first proved before the Ordinary. Crook argued, That a Consultation ought not to be first, because the Prohibition is well granted, and upon good grounds: For as it is drawn it alleges, that the testament is made of the land, and no mention of the goods. And as for that the Register speaks of probate land of before Ordinary, it mentions a special custom, which shows, that without custom it cannot be. And Crook agreed, the case in Dyer, where land was devised to be sold for payment of Legacies, the svit for the money to be distributed, may be in the Spiritual Court. For there the land being sold, the money is personal, and savours not of the reality, and is as assets in the Executors hands. 2. If consultation be, it ought not to be upon motion, but pleading. For here the party might be prejudiced erroneously, and not have his Writ of Error. marquis of Winchesters case, 38. 39. Eliz. rot. 355. Lloyd and Lloyd. 3 Car. Westlys case, 6 B. M. 5 Car.

One seized with his wife in fee, in right of his wife, had issue a son, after they let this land to A.S. for 30 years, the wife dyes, and after Tenant per courtesy dyes. The son reciting A.S. lease, makes another lease to Rochester habend. after the end surrender, &c. of the said A.S. lease. And it is found, that the dead to Rochester was razed, as 28 H. 8. were altered and made, 27 H. 8. 1. The first question was, Whether the lease to A.S. determined after death of Tenant per courtesy, or onely determinable by the heirs entry. Resolved, it was determined by death of Tenant per courtesy. And no acceptance of the rent after by the heir can make it have continuance, 1 E. 6. accept. 19. 2 Rep. 77. Harvy and Thom. case cited, 8 Rep. 34. 2. When the lease to Rochester began? Resolved, It began presently upon sealing, for there was no such lease in esse, then as A.S. 3 E. 6. Br. leases, 62. 6 Rep. 36. 46. 4 Rep. 74. Dy. 116. 3. The dead being razed in a material point, after sealing and delivery, whether that makes it not voided. Jones and Berkley, that the dead is voided by the rasure, but the Lease good, and remains in esse notwithstanding. And they differenced the case, where an estate loseth its essence by a dead( viz. where it has no essence without dead, as Lease by Corporation of tithes, &c. there such rasure determines the estate. But where it may have essence without dead, otherwise. Crook, that this rasure determined the estate, 11 Rep 27. 27 Dy. 261. 10 Rep. 97. Dr. Leyfields case. 7 E. 3. 57. 14 H. 8. 27. 4. It was resolved, That by the name of a Reversion, lands in possession cannot pass, but by the name of land a Reversion may pass. And that an habend. in a dead shall not enlarge the estate, contrary to the Grant. See, That by the grant of a Reversion, he hath none, nothing passes. Co. Lit. 46. 10 Rep. 107. 5 Rep. 104.

Sir R. dyes, the wife enters, being seized for life, Reversion to the Plaintiff, and that she made waste ad exhereditat. the Plaintiff. error assigned. Because the Plaintiff hath not sufficiently entitled himself to the Reversion to punish the Waste. Because he alleges not that Sir R. was dead without issue male. And that intendment helps not it, it being matter of substance. But the Court, Forasmuch as it is answered, that she entred, and was seized for her life, and the Remainder to the Plaintiff, and alleging it was to his disinheritance, it is intended that Sir R. is dead, and without issue male, 5 E. 3. 37. 7 E. 3, 46.

PRohibition prayed. And alleges a custom that for every lamb above seven, he compounded, if he had ten, the person had the tenth. That this surmise is not allowable in the Spiritual Court. Bramston and Crook held, for that cause a Prohibition. Also, of After-marth, that there is a custom in consideration he should make the first Tousure, and carry it away, he should be discharged of tithe of the After-mouths, a good suggestion. And so of Bees. that in consideration he maintained the Hives in Winter, and paid honey and wax, he was discharged of tithes of Bees. A Prohibition was granted. Hawkins against Bilhead. H. 10 Car. Rot. 1312. For words, He hath lain with such a woman, and others ●and them carnaliter cognovit. Moved in arrest, because the action is not brought within two years, according to 21 Jac. of Limitations. Jones and Berkley, because the Statute is not pleaded, that advantage shall not now be taken. For otherwise a great mischief would ensue. For in Common Bench they prosecute by Original, &c. But here by latitat, whereby the cause of action does not appear, and may continue by Process divers year before arrested. And Plaintiff needs not show in his Declaration, why he commen●… d his svit no sooner. But if Defendant pled the Statute, then by Replication he ought to show the cause. Judgement pro quer. unless cause, &c. Baker against Hacking. Bramstone Jones and Berkley, That the device is voided. For all held. That the Lease for life, is onely Lease of Tenant in tail, during his life and Lessees, and then a discontinuance, and the Reversion taken from him, so that he cannot make a device. If there be Tenant in tail, Remainder to his right heirs, he may be restrained by condition not to alieu, for his Feoffment is held there a discontinuance. Jones cited cromwell and Andrews case, 15 Eliz. Tenant in tail, Remainder to his right heirs, makes a Feoffment by dead. Resolved, a discontinuance: And no difference, when Tenant in tail, Remainder to his right heirs, makes Feoffment; and when Reversioner and Tenant in tail join in a Lease for life: and it is a discontinuance presently, or not at all. Crook, That it was no discontinuance, nor Reversion displaced. 1. It shall be said not tortuous, when by any means it may be construed to be a good Lease. Which may here be. For it is an estate derived out of both their Estates. A Lease of Tenant in tail as long as he lives, and after of Reversion. Co. 42. Litt. 6 Rep. 14. 2. Because they join in the Lease, therefore no discontinuance to the Reversioner, because he joined, and Tenant in tail is dead without issue, 27 H. 8. 13. 1 Rep. 76. And an act may be a discontinuance now, and not one by matter ex post. As if Tenant in tail infeoff the Reversioner and a stranger, and Reversioner survive, no discontinuance. But all the other Justices held it tortuous. Judgement according. Mayo against Cogshil. Error of Judgement in Ejectment. Upon not guilty Baron was quitted, and the Feme found. The Judgement being quod capiantur, was assigned for error. Rolls, so it ought to be. T. 4 Jac. Rot. 376. Lewes and White. Upon error for that cause, it was adjudged good. Which the Court agreed.

In consideration at the Defendants request, the Plaintiff had sealed a release, the Defendant assumed, &c. Upon Demurrer argued, that this promise being for a consideration past, was voided, Dyer 272. where he promised one that was bail for his servant, he would save him harmless. Judged a voided promise. Berkley agreed it. Jones and Crook, that the promise was good. Had it been made at the time of the release made, it had been clearly good. Then being made after the release, and made at his request, Defendant hath continuance of the benefit of it, and therefore good. For so the case in Dyer imports. And for this purpose 24 Eliz. between Marsh and Rainsford was cited. And because made at the Defendants request. Judged pro Plaintiff. The King against Sir Basil broken. Sc. Fac. A fine assessed at the Justice Seat in the foreste of Dean. Plea, that the Seat was at gloucester, Thereupon demurred, because beginning of Justice Seat was at such place within the foreste, and adjourned to Gloucester. Court, good, though begun out of the foreste, &c. The King against mine. Judgement upon Scire Fac. found for the King against Defendant, for cutting trees in a foreste without licence, being removed out of Chancery by Cerciorari, and sent by Mittimus into the Kings-Bench.

H. 9 Car. Copyholder in fee of Borough English Land, surrenders to the use of himself, and his wife, and his heirs. Having issue W.G. and charles, Father dyes, then it descended to charles the youngest, who dyes sans issue, elder enters, the middlemost enters upon him. Whether W. son and heir to the Father who created this Reversion, and brother and heir to the youngest, or G. the middlemost brother, shall have this. It was agreed, that G. cannot have it: so resolved in Ballards case for a Copyhold in Tottenham. 2. That though charles never was admitted, but dyed before, it is not material, for it is all one as if he had. 3. They all agreed between Copyhold in Borough English, and a Freehold in Borough English, there is no difference. And that if the Mother had dyed, living charles, and he entred, and dyed without issue, then W. should have it as heir of charles. But sole doubt, this being a Reversion expectant upon Estate for life, and Charles dying in life of Tenant for life( the mother) without issue, whether George as youngest might not have it. Bramston and Berkley argued, that G. should. And compared it, That brother of half blood, the eldest of the whole blood never entering, shall claim as heir to his Father, 40 E. 3. 9. 7 H. 5. 2. And in Writs, where he conveys by descent, there is mention of none but those who had the Seisin, as Pitz. Recov. 212. 8 Rep. 88. Jones and Crook, That W. shall have it. They allowed the Cases put of Estates at Common Law. And said, that charles being youngest son at death of his father, that makes him heir in Borough English by custom. And therefore living the father, none can be said to be herein Borough, &c. 6 Rep. 22. One seized in Borough, &c. having a son, leaving his wife, priviment enseint with another. The son born before shall be heir, and not him that is born after the death. Bramston demurred that. And said, that the son born after shall oust him; as in Shellys case, 5 E. 4. 6. 9 H. 7. 15. 30 Ass. 47. And whereas it was said, that 6. the youngest should have it as heir in Borough, &c. because he is youngest, when the Feme dyed. Jones and Crook denied it. For he was not the youngest when his Father dyed. As Writ runs minime not. at the time of his Fathers death. Wherefore, &c. Anonymus. Error assigned was. The Verdict found 5 l. dam. and 26 s. 8 d. for costs. Court awarded to recover the damages and costs assest, and 50 s. de increment. &c. and says not, pro misis suis, according to the course. Court, it shall not be intended but pro misis suis, which was the last antecedent, and not pro dam. Ter. M. 11 Car. Ban. Reg. King against Fitch. T. 9 Car. Rot. 213.

M. 10 Car. Rot. 83. Assumpsit. In consideration the Plaintiff would demise, &c. promised to pay the Rent, &c. Defendant pleads a surrender and acceptance. After Verdict, moved in arrest, &c. That the action lies not, because it is grounded upon a personal promise in a real Contract. Bramston, Jones, &c. held it lies, for it is a collateral and absolute promise. But had it been upon an implied promise, as upon a sale of goods, &c. It lies not. Crook doubted, because it is a personal Contract, and by the Lease made the personal Contract, is determined. For it is in vain to have Assumpsit, where he may have debt upon a Lease. All the Court denied; for notwithstanding this promise, it is a Rent as before. And all agreed, There ought to be an express promise proved, if he pleaded non Assumpsit, and that an implied promise would not serve. Berkley, if he recover damages to the value, it may be pleaded in bar to an action of debt for the Rent. Bramston and Crook denied, if one borrow money, and promise to enter into a Bond to pay it, and enters, that Bond determines the Contract. Done against Smeth●ar & al. T. 8 Car. Rot. 1310. Error to reverse a fine betwixt, &c. Demandants and such Deforciants. Error assigned. Because the Writ was directed to the Coroners, where it should have been to the Sheriff. For had the Sheriff been sole party to the fine, because it is but a summons, and he may summon himself, it should have been directed to the Sheriff, 18 H. 8. 3. 9 H. 6. 12. But the Court were of the contrary opinion. For it is a question, whether the Sheriff, as Plaintiff, may execute a Writ for, as Defendant against himself. And so no error, 34 H. 6. 29. 12 H. 4. 24. 8 H. 6. 28. 2 H. 6. 12. F. N. B. 98. Another error, That the Writ of Covenant in the Registers si fecerit eos secur. where ought to be vol.

These words touch him not in his Profession, and then no action, for it may be he cheated him at dice, &c. so resolved in Brunkers and Gorges case. Judgement pro Defendant, unless cause, &c. Dr. Sybthorps Case. Words. See, Dr. Sybthorp is robbing the Church; and another day, Dr, Sybthorp has robbed the Church( innuendo) adjudged actionable. Though it was urged, to say he is robbing, is not of an act done, and so no Felony. Berkley said, that for saying, such a one is robbing such a one, or ravishing, &c. action lies, 5 Jac. Benson and Marley, Thou hast robbed the Church, innuend. such one actionable. Downs and Hathwait. It was moved again, because of this variance. Declaration is that Johannes was obliged.

And that within the said Parish there is a custom, that all occupiers of such a Close of the Plaintiffs, time out of, &c. had a horse and foot way. And that the Defendant had built to stop the said way, &c. Moved in arrest, &c. 1. That such a custom in a Parish alleged for an occupier, to have a way, &c. is not good, but he ought to prescribe, in him, who hath the inheritance. And that a custom in a Parish cannot be well applied to a Close in the Parish. Dyer. 363. 6 Rep. 59. Of that opinion was the whole Court.

And if the Declaration itself is not certain by an ( innuendo) to be spoken of the Plaintiff, the Verdict will not aid it. Cur. Advis. for the Plaintiff to relinquish this, and amend this in his second action. Price against Parkhurst & al. Error.

Sir T.W. who made the Feoffment, was attainted of Treason, and executed. And by Act of Parliament, that he should lose Jura Condition. & hereditament. sua. Whether after this Feoffment Sir T.W. had any estate or right remaining in him, which is not forfeited by this Attainder. And the Arguments in Walsinghams case in the Coment. was much insisted on. 1. Because it being a Feoffment by Tenant in tail of the gift of the King( the Reversion remaining in the King at the time of the Feoffment) no discontinuance of the tail, and therefore the tail in him at the time of the Attainder. Not all agreed, If Tenant in tail of a common person, makes Feoffment, where no Reversion to the King, it is discontinuance, and if attainted, no forfeiture to the King. M. Winchesters case. 2. If the tail be not in him to be forfeited, yet the right of the in●ail remains, which is given to the King by 33 H. 8. or prim. Mar. And though Feoffment by Tenant in fee gives all Estates, &c. yet not so in Tenant in tail, but that follows the person and blood. And therefore a queen Estate of Tenant in tail cannot be pleaded. 3. The privity of Estate remains betwixt Donor and him, and cannot be transferred; especially Reversion being in the King. And therefore the heir within a fee recovering in formedon, shall be in ward. And Tenant in tail, remainder in the King makes Feoffment, heir within age shall be in ward. F. N. B 4. The right remained in him, and is forfeitable by 33 H. 8. and 1 Mar. For Writ formedon supposes quod descendit jus. 5. It construed strongly against Traytors. As Shefields case, 21 Jac. But Hutton, Crook and Jones to the contrary. To the first, 3 Rep. fo. 2. was cited, M. Winchesters case, and there fo. 10. Doubtys case, the right of Entry, and not of Action, is onely taken away.

That Waste lies. For the privity that once was in them, as Tenant in Dower or courtesy aliens. And it was said, that common recovery before 34 H. 8. barred a a tail, where Reversion in the King was not touched. 3.

T. the father dyes, T. the son and his wife enters, and seized in tail have issue P. and T. T. the father dyes, and P. the eldest son levies a fine in life of the Mother Tenant in tail, and dyes without issue. Whether this fine levied by the eldest son, living the the mother Tenant in tail, and dying without issue, shall bar T. the second son? All agreed, that this fine levied by the eldest son, who was never seized by force of the entail, and dying without issue before the entail descended upon him, is not a fine within 32 H. 8. nor 4 H. 7. to bar the entail. And in a formedon en descender, his brother shall never name him. But had he survived, the mother Tenant, &c. this fine had barred the brother, And nor like Archers case. Berkly compared it, Where Father is attaint, living grandfather, and hath issue a son, and dyes after the grandfather dyes, the land shall escheat. And so had eldest been attainted, and dyes, living the father, who dyes, the younger inherits, but had he been tainted, and survived the father otherwise. And so lands devised in tail, when he attains 25 years, and before levies a and fine, after attains. This fine bars the issue. Salter against Brown. H. 10 Car. Rot. 207.

But the Court held it no error, for Rutland gives that Writ, and W. 2. made a year after takes not that away. For W. 2. cap. 4. gives a special Writ of quod ei deforc. in special cases; as, where Tenant for life, dower, or tail, or by the courtesy, lose their lands by a recovery by default.

For though 23 H. 6. cap. 10. gives triple damages, and the Court might assess them; yet it is here erroneous. For they ought first to inquire of the damages, for they may be more or less. But the Jury ought first to find, and then they triple them. And they held, that quadruple damages was out of the Statute.

Plaintiff replies, that F. at the time of the release made, was but 18 years old. Upon Demurrer, Allestre pro Defendant, because there is not denial of the principal interest and damages, and though the Bond was forfeited rigore juris, yet acceptance was good cause of making a release, and being above 17. who may take upon him Executorship, his release as Executor is good, and shall bind his co-Executors. Rolls, that this release being by an infant is voided. For the Bond forfeited, the 100 l. is due, and acceptance of 52 l. part, cannot be taken as satisfaction, for he is in danger thereby of a Devastavit. Jones and Berkley of that opinion.

Lloyd against Gregory. It was agreed by all ( absent Bramston) That a lease made to Infants, and they during minority, accept of a new lease before the expiration of the former. That here such a surrender by an Infant cannot be by dead, but it is absolutely voided, and that a surrender by acceptance of a second Lease is voided, because it is without increase of his term, or decrease of his rent, and where there is not an apparent benefit, or the semblance of a benefit, his acts are merely voided.

It was urged, that the dead raised no uses to the Covenantees, because they are strangers in blood. For the first consideration is the preferment of his wife, the second of his children, the third to raise portions for his childrens benefit, and no benefit to the brother or his children. Court resolved, that the uses are well raised to the brother, and none other of the Covenantees, because he is of the blood, and one of the considerations is, for consideration to settle in his blood. And the Covenantees may sell the Estates, to raise the portions according to Devisors appointment. Cook against Cook. T. 14 Car. Rot. 1446. Error of Judgement in Waste.

And though he might have entred had the door been open, yet he ought not to break it open in the case of a subject. But it was judged to be man-slaughter here, because he saw the Bailiff, and shot at him, otherwise it might have been, had he been ignorant, or not seen him, 13 E. 4. 9. 18 E. 4. 4. vi. a large case in the Rep. at large of the like.

Berkley, a Collector by acceptance of a Talley, is chargeable in debt. And it is not like a Personal Misfeasance of the Sheriff, which action morit. cum persona.

But because he does not allege in his Declaration, that he was damnified by her non-appearance, as that he was non-suited, &c. Held by the Court to be nought. For there ought to be a party grieved, otherwise no cause of forfeitu●e, and the express words of the Statute. So Judgement pro Defendant. Bardsey against Clifton.

H. 10 Car. Rot. 73. THe first question was, Whether an Inholder be a person within the Statute of Bankrupts of 13 Eliz. 1 Jac. 21 Jac. Berkly, that he was a Bankrupt within those Statutes. But the other Justices held, that he was not. For though he buys provision into his house, he does not properly sell it. And the Statutes mentions those who buy and sell in gross, or by retail. And Inn-keepers get their living by buying and selling no more than farmers. 2. Whether Copyhold Land be within the Statutes to be sold by Commissioners. They all agreed, that it was within the purview of all the Statutes. 3. Because he gave this Land two years before he was a Tradesman to his son, and years before he became a Debtor.

Corp. returned, it appeared, that by an Order from the Council-Table, they were appointed to come before the Mayor, &c. It was moved, that this Return was not good, because he mentions not the Order, nor shows what it was. 2. Because the recognisance is for them to appear before the Lords, no time no● place appointed, nor cause shown why demanded. Parties were bailed till next Term. Sub-chantor and Vicar of L. against Eyers & al. T. 12 Car. The Plaintiff seized in Fee of Rectory of C. by Indenture, 29 H. 8. demised it to Peto fo● 42 years, excepting the privy tithes, &c.

The 2 and 3 of P. and Mar. they made another dead to Peto, and grant to the said Peto all their ●leablands in L. aforesaid; viz. 78 acres of land, and also the demeans thereof, and all Predial tithes, and Personal, which were belonging to the person of C. aforesaid. And the Court held, that the dead of 5 E. 6. is merely voided, because it is to convey an Inheritance in futur. for the month is not to begin till the 42 years expired, and it is a grant of an interest Termini, and not of a Reversion; and as it is interest Termini for the tithe Hay, so it ought to be of the residue, for there cannot be a fraction of the Estate, 22 Rep. 55. 8 H. 7. 3. 38 H. 6. 43.

They declared upon a Lease of a messsage, & unum repositorium. error assigned, because reposit. signifies a cupboard, and a person●l thing which is movable, and so an Ejectment lies not. But it was said on the other side, that it was a Warehouse as well as a cupboard. Berkley and Crook held so. Had it been Anglice, a Warehouse, clearly good by all. Now that it is without Anglice, being a good latin word for a Warehouse, the Court may well take conusance of it, as of a real thing, and being mentioned with a Tenement, Ejection. firm. lies as well of a Warehouse as a Chamber, or Ass. of a Cellar, 5 H. 7. 9. 24 E. 3. 33. or a Shop, 48 E. 34, But upon division of the Court, and Calapine, calls it a Voider, because the word Repositorium was of so various signification, and a word not usual in our Law, as Curtillag.

This Grantee, at the time of the Grant, was an Infant. But he attained full age in the life of the Bishop, and the Tenant for life, Bishop and Tenant for life both die, this Grantee is disturbed in his Office. Two Que● jons were moved: 1. Whether this grant of an Office to an Infant of eleven years old exercend. per se, &c. in Reversion after death of Tenant per vie be good. 2. Whether Office for l●… e ●sually granted in Reversion or Possession, granted by the Bishop, and confirmed by Dean and Chapter, shall bind the Successors. 1. The Court held, that this grant ut. sup. is a good grant. And the case of Coo. L●t. 3. of an Under-Stewardship was denied, unless with this distinction per se vel deputatum sufficient. For as an Infant may present to a Church, and the Ordinary give the allowance, so here deputy, and the Lord give his approbation of the Deputies sufficiency.

First, where the svit is upon a Penal Statute, no damages and costs ought to be given, because a penalty is given by the Statute. As there was in this case, Pilfords case, 10 Rep. 115. where the Statute gives single and double &c. damages, and mentions no costs. The Plaintiff there recovers none. 2. The Judgement is ideo in misericordia, where it should have been ideo cap. Court resolved, Where a Statute gives a penalty certain, and an action of Debt, there if the party be put to his action of Debt, he shall recover his damages, because the penalty was not paid; and he shall also recover his costs. But otherwise, where incertain, as the triple damages upon tithe or Waste, 2 E. 6. Co. Entrys 163, 164. 2. Resolved, the Judgement being in Debt for not payment, and not upon the Statute, it is good.

Defendant p●etends a custom in Kent to device Lands in gavelkind held in Soccage. Whether such a custom? To prove, shewed F. N. B. 198. Lands in gavelkind devisable by cus●om, and Lambard fol. they may be sold without the Lords licence. Shewed several presidents to that purpose. But they said, that such a custom ought to be pleaded. For the custom of gavelkind, sufficient to show it is in Kent and gavelkind Land. For the Court takes notice what the custom of gavelkind is. Counsel on the other side, held no such cu●tom ut sup. and cited 4 E. 2. Mortdauncestor 39. That an Assize of Mortdaunc. lies not of Lands devisable. But resolved to the contrary, that it lies, if true that his Ancestor dyed seized. Now if the Defendant pled there is such custom, and that the lands were devised to him, good bar to the action.

Moved in arrest, &c. because he says not that he cozened him concerning his Office, and it may be intended in some other thing. But by the Court the action lies. Judgement. Proctor against Chamberlain & al. Executors. error was brought and assigned. Because the appearance was upon the Summons, and not upon the grand Distress, therefore out of the 9 E. 3. cap. 3. Secondly, because it is misericordia against the three, where two of them never appeared. And against him who appeared, no misericordia ought to be, because he came in upon the Summons. Therefore resolved, that the party taken in Execution should be discharged. Terreys Case.

Resolved, that the Principal not being attainted, but discharged by burning in the hand onely, according to the Statute, the accessary ought to have been discharged, without burning, or being put to his Book. For where a man is Principal, and another Accessary to him after the fact, and both convicted, if Principal preys his Glergy, and has it, and is burnt, the Accessary is to be discharged without putting to his book. And the Judgement was erroneous, because he shall forfeit his Lands and Tenements after such Conviction, and Clergy allowed. Crawleys Case. Resolved, that if an Inhabitant refuse to serve as Constable, he is not to be committed to Goal, but they may cause him to be indicted, and set a fine upon him, as 8 Rep. 38. Griesbys case. Parker against Edith Bleeke. H. 13 Car. Rot. 1002. One seized in Fee of Copyhold Lands, in which Mannor there was a custom, and confirmed by act, that the wife of such Copyholder Tenant( if she survive) shall enjoy the said Lands during her life, and twelve years after. There issues out a Commission of Bankrupts, which fines this Copyholder a Bankrupt. Whereupon by Bargain and sale enrolled, they sell the land to pay the Creditors. Copyholder dyes, his wife is admitted in Court to these lands before the Bargainees. Two points were insisted on. 1. Whether by this Bargain and Sale of the Commissioners, the Copyholders Estate was vested in the Bargainees before admittance by the Lord, so as the said Copyholder did not die Tenant, and so not within the custom for the Widows Estate. 2. Admitting he dyed Tenant, and the Widow had such an Estate, whether the Vendee( by the Bargain and Sale before made) shall not afterward divest the Estate of the Feme by relation, Berkley and Crook, That the Bargain and Sale binds the Copyholders, and bars his Estate, that he is no Copyholder after enrolment. And the Bargainees by the Statute are onely barred of the Profits, until Composition with the Lord. 2. They held, When they are admitted, it shall divest the Estate the wife claimed by the custom, 7 E. 6. inrollments. Where one Joyntenant sells, and before enrolment other dyes, and after inroll●d, the moiety onely possessed. And where one bargains and takes a wife, and dyes, and after the Deeds in●olled, the Feme loseth her Dower. And so 22 Eliz. Mortgagee dyes, his heir being in Ward to the King, the Condition is after performed, the Wardship shall be divested, And the other Justices, after some debate, agreed in the first case, because by the custom she ought to be wife of a Tenant, which here could not be.

In this case it was agreed for Law, That where an Assumpsit brought by one within a private Jurisdiction, That I.S. upon good consideration promised to bring him so many loads, &c. from a place out of that Jurisdiction, to a place within the said Jurisdiction. A Judgement given thereupon is erroneous, because it being a private Jurisdiction, they have no authority to inquire of any thing out of the same. Resolved, if one promise to pay such a sum upon my return into England, I must in my Declaration allege express notice of my return, and show the day and place of such notice given. Otherwise erroneous. Scavage against Hawkins. error upon Judgement in debt, upon Lease for years. error assigned, because Plaintiff in debt counts that his Father was seized in tail, and made that Lease for years, and dyed seized of Reversion, which descended to him as heir of his body, and shows not the beginning of his Estate. But because it was in a Count, and not a Bar nor Avowry, held no error. Judgement affirmed, 22 H. 7. 26. 34 H. 6. 48. 2 E. 4. 11 Brian against Wikes. error upon Judgement in Leicester.

And if any part were unperform'd, devices them to W. Monox, and the Heirs males of his body upon the same condition, and if he failed in two moneths, to the Mayor and Commonalty upon the same conditions, and to repair London Bridge, and if they failed, that his Heir should enter and perform the same. Devisor dyes, the trust unperformed by all, his Heir enters, and is ousted by the Heir of Alford, who purchases of the other Devisees, by dead enrolled the Tenements, and afterwards Fine with Proclamations was levied to him. It was fo●nd, that none of the Conditions were performed, and that neither Devisors, Heir, nor Mayor and Commonalty of London had any notice of this Will, not of the Conditions, nor non-payment. After notice, Mayor and Commonalty entred upon Alford: He reenters. Three Questions: 1. Whether this be a Condition or a Limitation appointed by the Will. Admitting a Limitation, and that it may after the first Limitation be good to the Devisors Heir, whether such may be good to the Mayor and Commonalty, being but a possibility. 2. Admitting all these, yet being broken the first year, so de anno in annum. If the Devisors Heir has good title of Entry, and after the Mayor, &c. And they not entering, but suffer fine, and five years, if their Entry be not barred. 3. Admitting a breach of Trusts, &c. If want of notice aids not. The Will being, If through oblivion, or other cause, the Trusts be not performed, then they shall re-enter. Court resolved, that Fine ●nd five years has bared, &c. And the Limitation to the Mayor, &c. was voided, being a possibility upon a possibility, 1 Rep. Rector of Chedington. And that want of notice was not material.

Defendant demurs, but shows no cause of Demurrer. Maynard shows the cause, for that Defendant entitles himself by a Grant of the Queen, 22 year, and the Plaintiff claiming by the Queen, neither confesses, avoids nor traverses.

The Case of Sir John Dryden. Was now in the end of this Term moved again, that the Right of Writ of Advowson should abate by the death of one of the Tenants; although it be admitted that they were Joyntenants. Now because neither Master Attorney, or any other, had argued for the King all this Term, all the Court retained their former opinion, that the Writ should abate, and that Judgement should be entred accordingly. Thomas Bensteads Case. He was after the Term indicted before special Commissioners of Oyer and Terminer, it was resolved by all Justices and Barons, that going in warlike manner to surprise the Archbishop, being a Privy counselor, with Drums, and a multitude of 300. was Treason. 2.

Crook and Berkley. that the Indictment is ill, but Crook onely for the quashing it. Berkley, the usual course is not to quash an Indictment for nuisance on the High way, without Certificate that it is removed and avoided. But Crook, being it is agreed to be vicious, it ought to be quashed. Abdy Alderman of Londons Case. Resolved, that Aldermen of London, having houses in the country, shall not be obliged to serve Constable-ship by his privilege.

The Plaintiffs reply, that they presented such one, and traverse that Ellis was admitted, &c. error, because the Plaintiffs traverse the Justification, Admission, &c. of Ellis, of the Presentation of the Queen, where they should have traversed the Queens Seisin, and not the others Admission. But adjudged the Traverse to be good, and the Seisin of the Queen ought not to be traversed. Judgement affirmed. Thorn against Shering. H. 15 Car. Rot. 588. Trespass Claus. freg.

George Mead against Sir John Lenthal. QUestion was, Whether a Patent of the Office of the Marshal of the Kings Bench, granted for years, be good. And resolved, not to be good, Sir G. Reynolds, 9 Jac. Hill. 9 Rep. 97. which were it good, being an Office of so great trust, might come in suspense upon a Probate of a Will, till Administration were committed. And it was objected, it might be granted in Fee or Tail, and so descend to an Infant. Court answered, they could put in a fit person to serve in the mean time. And it was said, till 14 E. 3. Offices of Sheriffs were granted for years. Lodge against Holowel. T. 15 Car. placita Reg. Upon Information. Defendant being a Currier, bought two Hides of tann'd-Leather, to the value of 16 s. apiece, of persons unknown, and sold them unwrought, and not converted into wears, to a Shoemaker. Resolved by the Court, to be an offence against the Statute of 1 Jac. cap. 22 For this selling by a Currier, not cut out and made into wears, is against the letter and meaning of 5 and 6 E. 6. cap. 15. 27 Eliz. cap. 16. & 1 Jac. 22. and the third part is due by this 1 Jac. to the Informer. And they held, that a Currier may not buy and sell by whole sale. But peradventure in any other manner, as to Coach-makers, joiners, and others, for Stools and Chairs. Judgement for the Plaintiff. Orm against Pemberton. Plaintiff prayed a Writ to revoke Pembertons election to be clerk, by the person of the Parish, whereas the Parishioners, according to their Custom, had chosen him. Day for presidents, Trin. 21. Jac. A Prohibition against a person and clerk who sued in the Spiritual Court to be admitted, as elected by the person, and the other by the Vestry. Yates against Dryden & alios. M. 10 Car. Rot. 1473. Yates brings error upon a Judgement in the Common Bench, and hanging the Writ, the King brings Right of Advowson, and the proceeding in the Writ of error stayed, until trial of the other, after the mise. was joined upon the Right, and thereupon a special: After verdict, one of the Tenants dyes. Resolved and adjudged, that the Writ should abate in all. And after the errors were tried, and Judgement was affirmed, Yates exhibits his Bill in exchequer, and gets an Injunction, to stay the drawing up the Judgement, and serves Counsel and Prothonotaries with it. Hereupon came a Plea, that Mr. Gibbs held that Advowson in Coparcenary with the other two Plaintiffs in capite, and dyed seized, which descended to W. her son of 27 years old. And for want of his suing out Livery, it belonged to the King to present. Court held it to be no Plea, especially no Office produced finding the same. Attorney insisted much, where a title appears for the King ex officio, the Court must award 21 E. 3. 30. 12 H. 7. 12. F. N. B. 38. where a title appears for the King, the Court to award a Writ to the Bishop, 9 H. 7. 9, Had there appeared any title for the King upon Record. Berkley and Crook held, the Court had nothing to do, but to reverse or affirm the Judgement. And a Writ of Error is but in delay of Execution, Hollands case, M. 40. 41. Eliz. A Writ of error is but a Commission to examine errors, and there much doubted what things might be assigned for error, therefore of opinion, that Judgemen● being entred, and Damages and Co●ts signed, it ought to be affirmed. And they all agreed, there ought to be a clear Right appear for the King, and confess●d by the parties in pleading; otherwise the Court ought not to award a Writ ex officio for the King. And that by the death, the Writ of Right of Advowson abated. Richard Lees Case. The same day, being Saturday, Richard Lee, and seven others, were brought upon an Habeas Corpus from Colchester. And it was returned, that they were committed there to Goal being Anabaptists, using Conventicles, and absenting themselves from all Parochial Churches, and bap●izing and preaching, being all Mechanical persons, viz. Taylors, Weavers, and such like: and it being proved by their own confessions, that one of their company of the age of 60 years, utterly disallowed of the administa●ion of the Sacraments by the Ministers of our Ghurch: whereupon an Indictment being sound at the Sessions in Essex, before the Justices and others, finding th●ir absence from Church for a month, and resorting to Conventicles, against the S●atute of 35 Eliz. cap. 1. made against such persons, they being severally arraigned, thereupon pleaded Not Guilty modo & forma, which being returned, a trial was appointed to be at the Bar upon Tuesday 24. November following: and the Statute was red unto them, because they pretended there was not any such Statute made against them, or that they knew of any such Statute, but onely against Recusants; wherefore they were advised to consider thereof, and in the interim to submit themselves according to the said Statute, and avoid the penalty which would ensue upon conviction: Whereupon they were appointed to be bailed, and to appear at the said day of trial, and in the interim to be of good behaviour.

It was doubted by the Court, if the Court of Marches in Wales, could hold Plea of Legacies aabove 50 l. because causes Testamentary, and Legacies are suable in the Spiritual Court by the 34 H. 8. Calmadies Case. Resolved, a Prohibition lay upon Bills exhibited into the Court of Requests, after Verdict and Judgement, Trin. 14 Eliz. Rot. 1157. Flood against Stepney, C. B. Where duresse pleaded to a Bond, and afterwards Attachment issued out of the Court of Requests against the Defendant, and held to be good Plea.

And that he should not find Sureties for his good Behaviour, although there were divers misdemeanours committed by him after the 8 of July, yet his Pardon was allowed, and discharged without Sureties. Aspy against Pembridge. Prohibition was prayed to be awarded to the council of the Marches of Wales, pretending, That a Copyholder in Fee surrendered into the hands of such a Tenant, such a Tenement, held of the said Mannor by the Verge, to the use of the Plaintiff; and that Pembridge the Steward of the Mannor refused to admit him, and prayed, that he should be compelled to admit him. The Defendant pleaded, that the custom of the Mannor is to surrender into the hands of two Tenants, and that the said surrender ought to be done by the Verge: And this Surrender was onely by a Knife, sitting at at the Table, and into the hands of one Tenant onely; and that he who was pretended to makes this Surrender was dead; and his Heir alleging, that this Surrender was voided, desired to be admitted, and was admitted: And that notwithstanding this answer, they proceed to try the Custom, which is voided; whereupon a Prohibition was granted. Sherman against lily. H. 15 Car. Rot. 1198. Debt upon a Bond of 200 l. Condition, If the Defendant would permit his wife to make a Will of Goods, to the value of 100 l. to be paid within a year after her death, that then, &c. Defendant pleads, he permitted his wife to make a Will. He ought to have pleaded that he paid accordingly, for else he answers not to the Condition. So was the opinion of the Court. Burwell against Harwel. H. 15 Car. Rot. 197. In Replevin, Question was first, Whether the Grantee of a Rent-charge by the Conusor of a Statute, after Statute acknowledged, and the time of the extent incurred, averring Debt, Damages and Costs are satisfied, may distrain for the Rent and arrearages, without suing a Sc. Fac. Berkley, the distress lawful, without Sc. Fac. Difference, where a man makes a gift in tail, reserving a Rent, and where a Donor grants a Rent out of a Reversion. In the one the Rent may be dockt by a Recovery; but in the other, notwithstanding the Recovery, it remains at least as a Rent-seck. Bramston, where a man hath profits a prender, as Common for twenty Beasts, &c. every year: If he might not have them without Scire Fac. a great prejudice would ensue. Crook, on the same opinion. 2. Whether one who claims by the Conusor by Fine, or other Record, may maintain a Distress without a Sc. Fac. ad comput. as 38 E. 4. 12. 25 E. 3. 1. and 37. But Rolls, forasmuch as Conusee comes in by matter of Record, he cannot be ousted by one who claims under the Conusor; therefore he cannot distrain without suing a Sc. Fac. Berkley agreed that Grantee of a Rent after extent satisfied, may well distrain, so may Grantee of a Common, for they claim no interest in the Land, but onely the profits. And the rule, that he who holds Land by matter of Record, must be ousted by Scire Fac. or matter of Record, holds not always good. For he who hath Lands by extent upon recognisance, after debts satisfied, may enter without Sc. Fac. Judgement for the Avowant, unless, &c. 〈◇〉 against Stringer. H. 15 Car. Rot. 2. Trespass for breaking Close. As to breaking parcel containing 42 acres, they justify under a Grant of one who seized of the Mannor wherein, &c. in Right of his wife, and that the Grantor granted him Common for, &c. in the Mannor and Lands of, &c. and that the Baron is alive, and that he put his cattle to use the Common. And as to the other part of the breaking, he pleads a Lease of 99 years. Upon these Pleas Demurter. It was urged, that the first Plea is nought, because he does not pled, that it was Waste or Common, &c. B●t Berkley and Crook h●ld, that by the Plea, as the Crant and Fine is, he may claim Common in any part of the Mannor. For there is no restraint. And it is not like 9 H. 6. Grant of Common ubicunque & quandocunque averia ierint. For he ought to aver there, the cattle of the Grantor w●nt in the same place. Berkley held that clause voided, Crook, good. But for the other part of the Plea, wherein he prescribes to have Common, was nought. Judgement pro quer. Ter. H. 16 Car. Banc. Reg. Chambers against Sir Edw. Bromfield, Mayor of London. TRespass for false imprisonment. Adjudged to imprison for not paying of Shipmoney, was false imprisonment at that time. The Lord Greys Case.

He dyes, his son sits in Parliament, and after dyes, whether the daughter as possessio fratris, or the son by the second venture. Adjudged, the son. And that there is not possessio fratris in dignity. Coo. Lit. 17. 3 Rep. 37. Bacon against Bacon & al. T. 16 Car. Rot. 456. That an Englishman, with his wife, being in Merchandizing beyond Sea, and his wife an alien, she being privement inseint, when the Merchant dyed, and is delivered, this child shall be a Denisen, for it is not material what Country she is of, for she is sub potestate viri, and it is not as the Civilians, partus sequiter ventrem, but the child shall be of the fathers condition. A case was cited, where one Stephens a Merchant went over Seas, and resided for his Merchandizing, and there had children. Resolved, that they were denizens. And so Judgement here. Prinsors Case. One, as Constable, arresting one by Order of Sessions, on a Sunday in the Church-yard, was fined, and also upon a Cerciorari from the same Bench shewed him, he refusing to obey it, pretending his ignorance of reading, was put to find Sureties for his good behaviour. But the Fine and Imprisonment were discharged, because the arrest was by Process of Sessions. But the Court declared, it was not well awarded according to 21 Jac. King against Hilton & ux. T. 16 Car. Debt against Baron and Feme as Administratrix of her former husband. Upon nulla bona of the Intestates returned, another Fi. fac. awarded, with a clause in the Writ, that if it be found that the said Baron & Feme devastaverunt bona, &c. 5 Rep. 32. Sheriff returns, that the Feme, and not the Baron, had wasted 100 l. worth of goods during her Widow-hood. Rolls urged, that it was a Devastation in both. And the Court held the Sheriffs return good enough. Judgement for the Plaintiff. Ball against Trelawny. P. 16 Car. Bill against Defendant in Cust. Mares. upon 2 H. 4. cap. 11. for suing in Admiral Court, for a Contract made on the Land at New-England, and not supper altum mere. Hales moved in arrest. Because the svit is by Bill, and not by Original Writ, as the Statute appoints. But in regard it was returned, he was in Cust. &c. It was held well enough. 2. For that being at New-England, it was held to be partibus tr●nsmar. The Court held it to be out of the Admirals Jurisdiction. And appearing to be in Execution for this cause onely, being brought to the Bar, he was discharged. FINIS. THE TABLE OF THE CASES. A. ABdyes Case, 317 action against simon, 228 Adams ag.
