PROPERTY.
Property, if Plate be stollen, and sold openly in a Scriveners Shop, on the Market day, as every day is Market day in London, saving Sunday, this sale shall not change the property, but the party shall have restitution: for a Scriveners Shop is not a Market overt for Plate, for none will search there for such a thing, but if the sale had been o∣penly in a Gold-smiths Shop in London, so that every one which passed by the Shop might have seen it, this would have altered the property; But if the sale be in a Gold-smiths Shop, either be∣hind a hanging or cupboard, so that one passing by* 1.1 the Shop cannot see it, this shall not change the property, so if the sale be not in the Shop, but in a Warehouse, or other place of the House, this shall not change the property, for it is not in a Market overt, and none will search there for his Goods.
