3. Whereas the Petitioners suggest that their Fee Farme would be either lost or lessened in case their suits and tryalls should be in the Chancellors Court, We answer.

1. That ever since the Borough of Oxon was first rented out to that Corporation in Fee Farm, they have continually falne in their Rent, but enhan∣ced their Revenes by challenging and taking se∣verall particulars as belonging to their Fee Farme which in truth are no parts of it.

2. That granting the perquisites of their Cort from the proper Suiters to be part of their Fee Farme, yet their suing and being sued in the Vni∣versity Court, where a Scholler or priviledged person is one party, would nothing impaire the just perquisites of their Court or Fee Farme, in re∣gard it was never otherwise since they had either Court or Fee Farme in Oxon.
