Mo. 870. 21 H. 8. c. 19.-Avowry for rent-service according to the statute of 21 H. 8. upon the land admits plaintiff to all pleas. Thomas Brown plaintiff, against Thomas Goldsmith defendant, in a replevin for taking a brass kettle at Cobham in Surrey, 21 Apr. 12 Jac. the defendant avoweth, as bailiff to the Dean and Canons of Windsor, that one Robert Parson held the place of the dean and canons, as of their manor of Hampton Court in the said county of Surrey and Middlesex, by rent and suit of court: that Robert Parson being summoned did not appear at a court holden in the said manor, that for suit he did distrain, and make conusance, as in land holden of the dean, &c. The plaintiff confesseth the seisin of the dean and canons, and the tenure : but further saith, that the seventh 3ay of April, an. 9 Eliz. the said dean and canons did lease by indenture the said manor unto one George Stidolphe from the Annunciation then past for the term of 51 years then next following; then he entered ante pried, tempus quo, and was, and is yet thereof possessed, the reversion to the said dean and canons expectant.
