- refted for Execution of the fame Recognifances, be
! oftentimes brought by divers Writs De corpus cum ' caufa before the King in his Chancery, out of Pri- ! fons in the which they be fo kept by Eorce of fuch ■
- Executions, and there they do fue, fhewing fbr^te
- divers Indentures, and other Things in Defelance of

' have been fometime greatly delayed of their Exe- ' cution, and fometime their Execution utterly loft, ' and in Time to come likely to be loft, for that no> ' Advantage nor Avail thereof might come, be, or' ' accrue to the faid Recognifees to whom fuch Per- ' fons be fo bound by the faid Surety fo bound to the ' King, feeing the fame Perfon fo bound may by the King's Pardon be acquit and difcharged for ever,- ' (5) Our Lord the King confidering that the faid
- Recognifees, to whom Perfons be bound, are often-
1 times without Remedy, if fo be that the faid Re--
- cognifors would not purfue forth their faid Writs ;
- of Scire facias with Effect ; or otherwife, that the
- Matters of the frid Writs of Scire facias be found
' or adjudged againft them, and thereupon they with- ■
- draw them to Places privileged, or eloign them out
- of the Realm, or elfe they would not appear, fo that
- their Bodies might be put in Execution; to the
