The same Term in the same Court. Vaughans Case.

THomas Dedham had to Apprentice one Holland, who got his Main with Child, and afterwards departed from his Masters Service, and staid a whole night with Vaughan his Kinsman, and Dedham procured a Warrant from S. Stephen Soame a Iustice of Peace, that the Constable should bring the said Apprentice to order according to Law, and because that Vaughan perswaded him to withdraw himself, so that he should not be taken by virtue of the Warrant he was indited.

And it was agreed that it was lawfull for Vaughan to lodge and relieve him, albeit he knew his misdeeds, they being no Treason or Felony: But

Haughton Iustice took exception to the Inditement, because no place appea∣red where he perswaded him to withdraw himself from the Warrant, or in truth that he did hide himself from the Warrant, for if he did not so, the perswasion was nothing.

And Doderidge took another exception to the Warrant, because the Sta∣tute saith, that two Iustices, of which one of them shall be of the Quorum, shall proceed in such cases against the Malefactor, and that they shall com∣pell the party to allow means for the education of the Infant, or otherwise the Offendor shall suffer corporall punishment, and so this Warrant not be∣ing speciall according.
