Anonymus.

A Prohibition was prayed to a Suit for a Pension in the Ecclesiastical Court, surmising that the Lands out of which it was demanded were Monastery Lands, which came to the King; and that he granted the Lands, &c. under which Grant the Plaintiff claims; and that he Covenanted to discharge the said Lands of all Pensions, &c. and this upon the Statute of 34 H. 8. cap. 19. which appoints the Suit to be for Pensions in such cases in the Court of Augmentations, and not elsewhere.

But the Court would not grant it, until the Letters Patents of Discharge were produced, being a matter of Record.

But where the Surmise is of matter of Fact, it is sufficient to suggest it.

And it was said by the Court, That Pensions, whether by Pre∣scription or otherwise, might be sued for in the Ecclesiastical Court; but if by Prescription, then there was also Remedy at the Common Law. F.N.B. 50. 1 Cro. 675.
