588 MARYLAND COURT OF APPEALS

of the said Eleanor it was Surmised in the High Court of Chancery of this
Province that the said Tract of Land lay w^thin Panguayah Mann^r reserved
for his Lordship the Lord Proprietarie's Own Use Whereupon a Scire facias
was issued out of the said Court in the name of the Right hon^ble Charles late
Lord Prop^ry of noble memory Successor of the said Lord Caecilius Return-
able the tenth Day of February Sixteen Hund^d Seventy three against the
widdow and Heiress of the said Walter to Appear in the Said Court of
Chancery to Shew Cause why the said Grant should not be Cancelled and
vacated. To which the Widdow of the said Walter is Said to have Appeared
by one Mathew Hill her Son in Law a person who by any thing that appeares
was not Learned in the Law or in any wise Capable or obliged to make any
Defence for the Said Infant and who was So far from making any that he
Delivered and Surrendred the Said Grant to be vacated Which was Accord-

the Said Vacation Was founded was true, Either through her Ignorance in

And Whereas it hath been made Evidently Apparent to this Present
General Assembly that there was no Reserve of Panguaya Mann^r till a Con-
siderable Time after the Survey and Grant to the Said Walter Beane the
Conditions whereof appear also to have been by him Complyed With So that
it is Apparent that the Decree of the High Court of Chancery for vacating
the said Patent was irregular Unjust and without the least foundation And
Whereas the said John Beale who intermarried with the said Eleanor and
had issue the said Richard in the Year Seventeen Hundred and five and the
Said Eleanor brought their Ejectment in the Provincial Court of this Prov-
ince and had a Special Verdict against one Edw^d Diggs Gen^l who Claimed
the said Land finding all the facts herein before mentioned

Whereupon the said Edward to prevent a Judgment being given
thereon Procured an injunction out of the then High Court of Chancery
to Stay Proceedings at Law untill a Reversall should be of the former Decree
Given for the vacating the Grant of Durham w^cn the said Chancellor in
Stead of Doing on a hearing and Rehearsing of the Cause gave a further
Decree against the said John Beale and his wife for the affirmation of the
former Decree without the Least Colour Reason or justice and Discouraged
the Said Jn^o Beale from prosecuting a review by giving out that he would not
