From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) [bouvier]:

  QUARE, pleadings. Wherefore. This word is sometimes used in the writ in 
  certain actions, but is inadmissible in a material averment in the 
  pleadings, for it is merely interrogatory and, therefore, when a declaration 
  began with complaining of the defendant, "wherefore with force, &c. he broke 
  and entered" the plaintiff's close, was considered ill. Bac. Ab. Pleas, B 5, 
  4; Gould on Pl. c. 3, Sec. 34.
