IN THE COURT OF EXCHEQUER
smith and jennings cask. Upon evidence to a jury, it was said by Tan field, that if a man make charter of feofment of hinds in two towns, and a letter of attorney to make livery, and before livery made by the attorney, the feoffor himself maketh livery of the laud in one town, this is a countermand of the letter of atturney, and so livery cannot be made by the attorney in the other town ; and quere if the towns were in several counties. Bacon the Kings solicitor said, that if a man make a charter of feofment of two several acres, whereof one is in lease for year^, and the other in demeasue, and the feoffor Ex. Div. I.-11* 330 EDWARDS CASE LANE, 98. makes a letter of attorney to make livery, and before that he executed, the feoffor hirusqlf makes livery, now although that one acre cannot pass by this livery, because it is in lease, yet this is a countermand, and revocation of the authoritie given by the letter of attorney, for his intent is manifest so to lie, to which Tanfield, and all the court agreed. Hobert, attorney general said, that in this case, although that one of the acres was in lease, yet in regard it appeareth not, that the lessee was in actual possession, therefore he conceived, that it should be construed, that the lessee was not in actual possession at the time of the livery made by the lessor in the name of all, and in respect there was no house upon the acre in lease, it may be intended, that the lessee should be in actual possession, but for that cause he rather conceived, that it should be construed, that the lessee was riot in possession, and so the livery might well operate to pass it. Tanh'eld, and all the court denied, that the livery was good to pass it, although that the lessor was in actual possession ; but where Mr. Atturney alledged further, that before the livery made an infant had a term for years in this aero in lease, and that the feoftbr at the time of the livery, was garclian to the infant, and thereby had a possession therein, and therefore the livery made in the other acre in the name of all, should be good to pass all, to which the court agreed, and thereupon directed the jury to finde the livery, and seisin to be made of all: and in this case the court inclined, that because this feofment was made, but ten days before, that the feoftbr committed treason, and in asmuch as it was made to the use of the son being an infant, and...
