A Writ of Partition was brought by Henry Tannworth, and Chri∣stian
Tannworth, against John Tannworth their elder brother;
for lands in Hawlesteed, alias, Elsted in Leicester-shire, because that
Halsteed is parcel of the Soak of Rothelay, wherein there is such a
custom, that the lands shall equally descend to all the heirs males,
and in giving of evidence, Walmisley sayd that the members of a
Mannor are other Towns in which the Mannor extends, and Pucker∣ing
sayd, that at this day the Queen may make a Soak: For it is no∣thing
else but a Precinct, to which divers Mannors come to doe suit;
and as a great Leet containing divers other Courts; and the Evi∣dence
descriptionPage 106
was strong for the Tenant; for he shewed by plain proof, that
this was never parcell of the Soak, allthough that it was within the
ancient Demeasne of Rothelay, as it was proved by the Book of Domes∣day,
which was there shewen, and a Clerk of the Exchequer read it
(for other Clerks could not) and he sayd, and so sayd the Serjeants;
and the Tenant delivered to Anderson and Peryam an ancient Book
of the time of Ed. 2. for their remembrance, wherein, in 4 Ed. 2. in a
nuper obiit, it is sayd, that if the Lands which have been departible
and departed, come into the Lords hands by Escheat, they shall not
be departible in his hands,vel in manibus alicujus alius perquisitoris
non possunt partiri. And he sayd that such was the opinion of Sir
Thomas Bromley the last Lord Chancellor upon hearing of the matter
there; whereby when the Jury came to give their Verdict the Plain∣tif
was Non-suit.
