Deliver ye
The name of an old English writ which used to issue out of chancery, under the great seal. It might be directed to the treasurer, chamberlain, and barons of the exchequer, &c., for the payment of any yearly pension or other sum of money granted under the great seal; or to the sheriff, for the delivery of land or goods taken upon forfeiture of a recognizance; or to a jailer, for the delivery of a prisoner who had put in bail for his appearance. It is said to have been most in use for the delivery of goods on an extent; for until the liberate no property in the goods passed to the conusee in the recognizance.
