This prohibition is in these words: "Nullus vicecomes, constabularius, coronator, vel alii balivi nostri, teneant placita coronae nostrae." Some persons seem to have supposed that this was a prohibition merely upon officers bearing the specific names of "sheriffs, constables, coroners and bailiffs," to hold criminal trials.

Et illi qui modò tenent, teneant in pace quamdiu manserint in fidelitate regis Angliæ, & fideliter & integrè persoluerint tributum & alia iura sua quæ ei debent per manum regis Conaciæ, saluo in omnibus iure & honore domini regis Angliæ & suo.
According to K., teneant has for its subject not sororum filii, but the same subject as exigunt. Heredes properly refers to property, successores to rank, though the distinction is not always observed. Liberi includes both sons and daughters. Patrui, paternal uncles; avunculi, maternal. Propinqui, blood relations; affines, by marriage. Orbitatis pretia. Pretia==proemia. Orbitatis==childlessness.

"He died and made no sign!" SINGULA quaeque locum teneant sortita.* HORACE: Ars Poetica. * "To each lot its appropriate place."
