By this issue it may be seen that when there are executors in such a case, an action is not given to the heir.-Thorpe imparled. And then Pole did not dare to abide judgment upon this, and waived that plea, and held to this that they did not pay the money [for which an acquittance was given] by that deed; and afterwards he waived that plea, and said that it was not the deed of the executor; ready &c.-R. Thorpe. He does not deny that he whom we allege to have released was executor; and naturally the action is given to executors and not to heirs; wherefore judgment whether he shall be admitted to deny the deed of another.-SCHARDELOWE. You have produced the deed of the executor; wherefore he ought to have an answer to it, since by it you wish to rebut him from the action.-Thorpe. As long as he does not deny the deed, he admits that there is such an executor; and the production of the deed by us is to the intent that, if the executor resort to his action at another time to demand the debt, we may preclude him from his action by this deed; and we should not have this for our ground if we did not now plead it.-And afterwards he maintained that it was the deed of the executor; ready &c.--And the other side said the contrary.-And note the opinion of the COURT in this case was that, while there is an executor living who represents the estate of the testator, the heir shall not have an action.'

Will you say that we have fee? for otherwise this is not an answer, if you do not show that the reversion belongs to a person other than the person of whom we pray aid.-BASSET. It is not so; for it is sufficient to destroy the cause for which you pray aid; and this he does. And afterwards Blaik allowed the aid gratis, and prayed a Scire facias against him who was prayed in aid, and had it.--And note that 1 There is an abridgment of this case in Harl. 741, where it appears as of the following Trinity Term. dioms qe nient son fet; prest &c.—Mallum (clerk).
