of the Manor or Farm called Poyle Farme, and the
Messuage called The Katherine Wheele, with the Lands
thereunto belonging, in the Parish of Stanwell, in
the County of Midd. according to an Agreement
made, and a Trust reposed, by Thomas Lord Knyvett,
in his Lady, upon the weighty Reasons of Justice and
Equity, in the Decree of the Twenty-one Year of
King James expressed, made upon a full Hearing, wherein it was decreed, That the said Manor and Premises
should be settled on the said Petitioner the said John Carey
and the said Dame Elizabeth, and the Heirs of their
Two Bodies, as in the said Decree appears; against
which the said Henry Cromwell exhibited his Bill of
Review, to reverse the said Decree; which Bill was
dismissed by the Lord Keeper Coventry; and the said
Petitioner John Carey and Dame Elizabeth did hold
and enjoy the said Lands and Premises for above Six

to be adnulled and reversed, upon feigned, irregular,
and erroneous Exceptions and Allegations, contrary

Consideration of the whole Matter, and the Lords being
well satisfied in the Justice and Right of the said First
Decree, made in the One and Twenty Year of King
James:
It is ORDERED and Adjudged, by the Lords in Parliament assembled, That the Reversal of the said original Decree, and all Proceedings thereupon, are (by

John Cary shall have free Liberty to enforce the Execution of the said original Decree, made in the said One
and Twenty Year of King James; any Thing in the
former Proceedings in this Cause to the contrary notwithstanding: And herein Obedience is to be given to
this High Court, as the contrary will be answered before their Lordships.
