CURTILAGIUM.

Curtilagium, is a soil or Garden spot belonging to a Messuage, quasi curta pecia terrae. Fairfax. 21 Ed. 4. fol. 52.

If the Wife be delivered of a monster, which* 1.1 hath not the shape of mankind, this is no issue in the Law, but although the issue hath some defor∣mity in any part of his body, yet if he hath humane shape, this sufficeth.

If the issue be born deaf or dumb or both, or be born an idiot, yet it is a lawfull issue to make the Husband Tenant by the courtesie, and to inherit the Wifes Lands of such Inheritances whereof actuall seisin cannot be gained untill a certain time (as of Rent in fee, in right of the Wi••e, untill the day* 1.2 of payment, nor of advowson in gross untill the incumbent die) of such Inheritances the Husband shall be Tenant by the courtesie, although he be not actually thereof seised during the Cover∣ture.
