Language Notes (Law French)
Nedeham JCP: si jeo baila certein deniers a un home d' agarde tanques apres ma mort, & donques pur disposer pur mon alme
Littleton JCP and Moyle JCP: commorant (= dwelling) & demurrant (= residing) a Sale
Abstract Context
Commentary & Paraphrase
Nedeham JCP: if I bail certain money (deniers) to one to keep (d' agarde) until after my death, and then to dispose (of the money) for my soul (per mon alme), my executors will not have an action of account against him (my bailee) after my death, etc. because he himself (the bailee) is my executor as to this sum, etc.
and note that it was said by all the Court that the obligation made in the third person (testator) is enough (assets), that is, ''be it remembered (Memorandum) that T.B. owes J.K. 100 shillings of which thing (this deed) testifies to which he (T.B) affixed his seal, etc., and thus it is of a gift made, 'these present writings witness, that J.C. gives, delivers, etc., as well as it is of an indenture, etc., note this
and also it was said by Littleton JCP and Moyle JCP that if an action be brought against me calling me 'of Dale', etc. where in fact there is no such vill, hamlet, nor place know, etc. I can chose to plead generally that there is no such vill,e tc. or to plead that on the day the writ was purchased, I was dwelling and residing at Sale, denying that I am of Dale, etc. and so it is in a Praecipe quod reddat brought for tenements in Dale, etc., I can plead (dire) that they are in Sale and not in Dale, etc. or plead (adire) that there is no such vill, etc.
