Mrs. Chamberlains Case

mes. chamberlains case. In 22 Eliz. York recovered by indictment in the Kings Bench against Allen upon an assumpsit, York being thus interessed of the debt, after that is in May, 26 Eliz. was outlawed upon a mean proces at the suit of J. S. and in the same year and moneth was;outlawed after judgement at the suit of the same J S. and after1 a generall pardon LANE 118.
