TRESPASS. 



If I go on another man's ground without licence, the 

 owner may have an action of trespass against me ; and 

 if I continue there after warning by the owner or his 

 servant thereunto authorized, the owner, or his servant by 

 his command may put me off by force ; but not beat me 

 unless I make resistance, 9th, Edward IV. No servant 

 shall be questioned for killing a tresspasser within his 

 master's liberty, who will not yield, if not done out of 

 former malice : yet if the tresspasser kills any such servant 

 it is murder, 21st. Elizabeth. 



If any person shall keep any net, angle, leap, piche, 

 or other engine for taking fish (except the makers or 

 sellers of them, or the owners or occupiers of rivers and 

 fisheries) such engines, if they shall be found fishing with, 

 without the consent of the owner of the fishery, shall be 

 -seized, and any person, by a warrant under the hand and 

 seal of a justice of peace, may search the houses of such 

 prohibited and suspected persons, and seize to their own 

 use, or destroy such engines, 4 and 5 of W, and M,
