Upon the complaint of the churchwardens and overseers of the poor of the parish of A aforesaid, in the said county of M, unto us whose names and s al are hereunto affixed, being two of his majesty's justices of the peace in and for the said county of M, and one of us of the quorum, that PP, and A his wife, SP their son aged eight years. and DP their daughter aged four years, have come to inhabit in the said parish of A, not having gained a legal settlement there, and that the scid P P, A his wife, and S and D their children, are become chargeable to the said parish of A: we the said justices, upon due proof made thereof, as well upon the examination of the said P P upon outh, or otherwise, and likewise upon due consideration had of the premises, do adjudge the same to be true; and we do likewise adjudge, that the lawful settlement of them the said PP, A his wife, and S and D their children, is in the parish of B, in the county of G: we do therefore require you the sad churchwardens and overseers of the poor of the said parish of A, or some or one of you, to convey the said PP, A his wife, and S and D their children, from and out of your said parish of A, to the said parish of B; and them to deliver to the church. wardens and overseers of the poor there, or to some or one of them, together with this our order, or a true copy thereof, at the same time shewing to them the original; and we do also re * In the K. v.

And in order that the adjudication may appear on record to charge the parish, it was said by Holt Ch J. Hil. 4 Ann. That the most regular way for the justices to proceed, is to make a record of the complaint and adjudication, and upon that to make a warrant to the churchwardens and overseers, to con. vey the persons to the parish to which they ought to be sent, and deliver in the record by their own hands into the court the next sessions, to be kept there amongst the records to charge the parish. Salk. 406. But as it is not clear how this record shall be conclusive on the parish, unless it also appears that the removal was actually made, it seems proper for the justices who made the order, to inquire whether it was duly executed; and if it was, to state that fact likewise on the record; for the sessions have no jurisdiction in respect to an order of removal, unless it be brought before them on an appeal.
