dominus rex versus holland. [See Sharp v. St. Sauvew; 1871 L. R. 7 Ch. 353.] An office was found and returned in the Chancery, that a copyhold in Islington was 14 Car. granted to one John Holland and his heirs at the will of the lord, &c. in trust for one Margaret Taylor (who was an alien) and her heirs; and that the profits were disposed according to the trust, and that after M. T. died : and this was by virtue of a commission to enquire what lands, &c. M. T. had, and the commissioners seised the land; whereupon Holland came and shewed his title, and traversed the seisin in trust for M. T. And issue being joyned, it was found for the King; and note the venire facias was awarded in the Chancery retornable in this Court, and the 890 TRIN. 22 CAR. BANCO REGI3 AtRYN, 15. record sent hither, (for they try no issue there). And exception was taken to the writ because it was quorum quilibet habet 4 libratas terra, and according to stat. 27 El. cap. 6. which extends only to this Court C. B. Exchequer and Justices of AssUe: to which it was answered, that forasmuch as it is returnable in this Court, it is welt enough within the statute; but that answer was not allowed : but because this clause was added by the statute of 35 H. 8. cap. 7. which was in the affirmative, that the writ should continue quorum quilibet habet 2 libratas terras. And the statute 27 El. adds that it shall be 4 libratas in such Courts, but no negative words in either statute; therefore it is but abundans cautela, and makes not the writ vicious. And Eoll said that it was so adjudged Mich. 21 Jac. between Philpot and Feilder. The questions in law were, 1. If the King should have the trust: 2. If by virtue of that he might seise the land: 3. If the case differ'd, because copyhold. And it was argued the last term by Mountagua for Holland, and Hale for the King; and this terra by Maynard for Holland, and Twisden for the King. 1. That uses at the common law were things partly in action, so that they were not given to the King by general words of hereditaments in statutes, as is agreed in The Marquess of Winchesters case. And they consisted in privity, and therefore could not be transferred by act in law, as by escheat for attainder, &c. And the preamble of the statute of 27 H. 8. [15] which reduces the possession to the use, recites that by conveyances to...
