You shall not have the averment any more in this case than if we admitted an estate in your husband to him and his first wife and the heirs issuing from their two bodies, in which case, if he to whom the reversion belonged was in, and there was no issue between them, in point of law the estate of the husband was only a freehold, and his second wife would not have such an averment.-SCHARSHULLE. At common law in such a case, she was dowable, but by Statute she is restrained.W. Thorpe. The Statute1 is to the effect that in such a case the second husband shall not be tenant by the curtesy of England, but there is no mention in it of dower.And, notwithstanding, Parning had the general averment for the wife.-And note that the plea of W. Thorpe was not entered, notwithstanding that he showed a part of the fine. (9.) § Note that a writ of Account was sued in Middlesex, and the plaintiff counted only of a receipt in the city of London, and exception was taken to the writ because he did not count of any receipt in the county in which the writ was brought, for the process upon this writ is as upon a writ of Trespass, where the Exigent is given in no other county but that in which the act was done. And because this writ is given at common law, in the same manner as a writ of Debt, against the defendant in the county in which he can be soonest brought to an answer, and because, although the Statute 2 gives an Exigent, yet that does not oust the common law as to this point, therefore the writ was adjudged good, on good consideration. 1 13 Ed.

There is a very short abridgment of this case in Harl. 741. A.D. 1340. Quare impedit. (10.) § The King brought a Quare impedit against Richard Kelshulle in respect of the church of H., and counted that it belonged to him to present, for the reason that one John Pycot was seised of the manor of Heydene, to which the advowson was appendant, and of the advowson, and presented his clerk, after whose resignation the church is now vacant. And he showed that the manor &c. were holden in capite of King Edward, the King's father, in whose time J. Pycot aliened the advowson to William de Clyf without his license, wherefore he seized the advowson, and it still remains in the hand of the present King for that reason, and so it belongs to him to present.-And note that Parning did not count for damages for the King, because he will not recover any damages; and yet the form used to be such. And that was W. Thorpe's practice.-WILLOUGHBY made Rokell defend the damage. And exception was taken to the count, for that the King in counting did not show the descent, and for non-certainty in that he did not show for what cause the church is now vacant.-This was not allowed.-And exception was also taken to the writ because the King has a general writ, as if this were his own right, and by his count he shows that he has possession only in right of another until satisfaction be made to him, in which case the writ ought to be "by "reason of the lands and tenements of such an one being " in his hand &c."-Parning. Before the Statute,1 in such a case, anything holden in capite of the King and aliened without the King's license was forfeited, and this was adjudged of the lands of Gower; and then the writ for the King was general; and the form of the writ is not changed by the Statute. And besides, the King 11 Ed. III., Stat. 2., c. 12. 1 166.] (10.) § Le Roi porta Quare impedit vers Richard A.D. 1340.

R° 158. It there appears that an action was brought by the King against Gilbert de Arundel and Richard de Keleshulle in respect of the church of Heydene (Essex). The report printed No. 59 next below (from Harl. 741, where it appears as of another term) relates almost certainly to the same case. In the latter report there is only one de- 2 T., Bigot. 3 T., Chief, instead of de Clyf. |
