Jones, J.
concurred, if a man be indicted quod murdravit quendam hominem, (viz.) I. S. it is bad. There is no Latin word here, signifying in English, witchcraft.
Doderidge, J.
assented, If there be no Latin word signifying witchcraft, one shall be framed, as tenementum, anglice, a gun. But incantation, &c. are proper words.
And the indictment was quashed. Kel. 3. plac. 13, Jones 143. Noy 85. Bendl. 185.
