As the words grana molibilia are restrictive of omnia grana, it is a settled point, that the thirle may export ungrinded what they have of the growth of the lands, more than they have occasion to consume in their faihilies; but whatever thereof they do grind falls under the thirlage.

And accordingly in this case, where, by the bond of thirlage, the lands and whole grindable corns growing thereon were astricted, it was found, that the possessors were bound to grind at the mill all the corns growing on the lands which they should either consume in their families, or grind for sale or other uses.
