because all the pan of the knee be b entire cut off as if  a arm or c leg be cut off or if a man be behead the depth or breadth of the  wound shall not be strew b the that exception be because it be say tempore  felon et d murder pillage whereas it shall be murdri and this exception be  also disallow for tempore felon pillage have be sufficient without say murder  and therefore the addition of that shall not make the indictment insufficient  forasmuch as murder gm be a word insensible and vain so that no contrariety or  repugnancy appear for e surplusage will not hurt but when it be repugnant or  contrary to the matter precedent or subsequent the that exception be because  the wound be give the that day of August and the death be the that day of  December next ensue and the

death shall have relation  to the stroke and he shall forfeit nothing as it be agree in e coroner so h  Stamford say that the appeal shall be bring within the year after the stroke  and not the death for when the death ensue now in judgement of the law the  felony be commit the day when the wound be give for the death be but in a  certain way the execution of the felony but tell curian in banc king against  that and they say they have often adjudge indictment insufficient when the  stroke be one day and the death another and the jury conclude the murder or  homicide to be commit the first
