IN a Replevin by Holt against Roper, the Case was: J. Abbot of W. Leased to T.M. Knight, a Close of Land in B. for 44 years,* 1.1 who thereof possessed, was attainted of misprision of Treason, and so forfeited to the King, who seised the same: The Abbot and his Covent surrendred, 31 H. 8. the King Leased the same to Roper for 21 years, and died: King Ed. 6th in the fourth year of his Reign, Leased the same to one Philips, To have and to hold, after the Term to T.M. ended, for 21 years: Roper surrendred to Queen Mary, who Leased the same again to Roper for 30 years. In this Case, It was adjudged, That the Lease made to Phillips, was ut∣terly

void, for that the King was deceived in his Grant; For the Lease made to F.M. was long time before determined by extin∣guishment in the Person of the King, who had it by forfeiture upon the Attainder of T.M. and the Statute of 1 E. 6. Cap. 8. shall not help that Lease (notwithstanding the Non-recital, or Mis-recital of Leases made before:) For here is not matter of recital, but mat∣ter of Estate and Interest, which is not well limited for the Com∣mencement of it, i. the Lease to Phillips; For there is not any certainty of the Commencement of it: For that Lease cannot begin after the Surrender of Roper, for the words of the Limita∣tion of the beginning of it, cannot serve to such Construction.
