      Shortly before Hilary Term, 1826, a declaration in ejectment on the demise of Edward Hannam and Wadham Wynham, was served upon John Hake, the tenant of a farm at Buckland St Mary, in the County of Somerset. Hake having appeared to this ejectment, signed a cognovits, by the terms of which he agreed to give up possession of all the lands in course for a wheat crop on the 29th September 1826, and the remainder of the premises on the 6th November following. Possession having been demanded and refused, judgement was entered up in the Michaelmas term, and a writ of habere facias possessionem was issued; under which, after considerable difficulty, occasioned by the resistance of Hake and his companions, Hake was removed from the premises. On the 21st June following, Hake with several other persons broke into the house, turned off the cattle, and retook possession of the premises At the following Bridgewater assizes (August 1827) a bill of indictment was preferred and found against Hake and his companions. In this indictment, the first count charged that the defendants on & co with force and arms, and unlawfully and with a strong hand, had entered into certain messuages and lands, to wit & co. situate & co, then being the freehold and in the possession and occupation of said Hannam and Wynham, and had then and there with force and arms, unlawfully with a strong hand, and without judgement recovered, disseised said Hannam and Wynham, expelled and put out said Hannam and Wynham from their possession of the said messuages and lands, and with force and arms from the day and year aforesaid, until the taking of this inquisition, had kept out and still did keep out said Hannam and Wynham so disseised, expelled and put out as aforesaid, against the form & co.The second count charged that Hannam and Wynham had been lawfully possessed of certain other messuages of lands, to wit & co, situate & co, for certain term of years then to come and yet expired, and that Hannam and Wynham being so possessed thereof, defendants on & co, with force and arms, had unlawfully entered & co, and with force and arms had then and there unlawfully expelled and put out the said Hannam and Wymham from the peaceable possession of the last mentioned messauges and lands; and that the defendants with force and arms them the said Hannam and Wynham from & c, until the taking of this inquisition, from the possession of the last mentioned messuages and lands, with force and arms, wrongly and unlawfully then and there had kept out. The Third count charged that the defendants on & c, with force and arms wrongfully, unlawfully, violently, and forcibly had entered into certain other messuages and lands, to wit & c, situate & c, then being in the peaceable possession of the said Hannam and wynham, and that the defendants had then and there with force and arms wrongfully and unlawfully , forcibly, and violently expelled, amoved, and put out the said Hannam and Wynham from the possession of the last mentioned messuages and lands; and the said Hannam and Wynham so expelled, put out, amoved from the possession thereof, as aforesaid, with force and arms wrongfully, forcibly, and violently had kept from & c, and still did keep out.
