In English practice. A roll upon which the issue in actions at law was formerly required to be entered, the roll being entitled of the term in which the issue was joined.

It was not, however, the practice to enter the issue at full length, if triable by the country, until after the trial, but only to make an incipitur on the roll.

Id. 734.
