CXXXV. Harper and Berrisford's Case. Mich. 26 Eliz. In the Common Pleas.

IN a Writ of Partition, The Defendant demanded Iudgment of the Writ, because the Writ is, Quare-cum A. teneat, &c. pro indiviso, &c: 4 mille acras; whereas it should be, Quatuor Mille acrarum. And many Grammarians were cited; all which agreed, That it was good both ways; viz. Mille Acras, or Mille Acra∣rum. And Rhodes, Iustice, said, That Cowper, in Thesauro suo Linguae Latinae, saith, Quod Mille fere jungitur Genitivo, Ergo non semper. Wherefore Anderson, with the assent of the other Iustices, Ruled, That the Defendant should answer over.
