trin. 24 car. B. E. cornish versus cawsy. trin. 23 car. eot. 1434. Debt. In an action of debt against an executrix, the plaintiff declared upon a lease made to the testator by indenture dated the 25 of March, anno. Habendum a die datus for seven years; and upon nil debet pleaded, the jury found that the plaintiff by indenture dated the 25 of March, and delivered the same day, demised the land to the testator, which was to have and to hold from the day of the date, for the tearm of seven years from henceforth next and immediately following, &c. And upon this 924 TRIN. 24 CAR. BANCO REGIS ALEYN. 76. verdict the question was, whether the lease, in point of computation, was to commence from the making, or from the day of the date ; for if the seven years commenced from the making, then the plaintiff had mistaken the lease; but if they commenced from the day of the date, then he had declared right, according to the lease. And it was argued, that the seven years were to commence from the day [76] of the date, and not from the making of the lease, for that the words will bear that construction ; for the words from hence forth may refer to the words from the day of the date, and so to the time of the commencement in point of interest. And then the words shall be taken as if the lease had been to have and to hold from the day of the date from henceforth for seven years, excluding the day of the date in the computation, and this was probably the intention of the parties ; and not that the lease should commence one day in point of computation, and the next day in interest: also there is a rent reserved during the tearm payable annually upon the 25 of March, the laat day of payment whereof would be out of the tearm, if the seven years commence upon that day. And the case in Dyer 261. was cited, where an abbot made a lease for 31 years, and after made a new lease in these words, Noveritis nos &c. dictis 31 annis finitis et completis dedisse, & concessisse prsed' prsernissa (to the second lessee) habend' et tenend' a die confectionis praisentium (terrain' prsed' finit') usque ad finem termini 31 aniiorum tune immediate sequentium. And it is there resolved by all the Justices of C. B. that the lease doth not commence in point of computation, till it takes effect in interest, viz. till the first 31 years ended. And yet there it might have been said, that the words pried' termino finite...
