`. • " • .0' LAW INTELLIGENCE. llHRiurrs COURT, APRIL tr. Ft r' O. Wsvaamoosa.—The Plaintiff is a roach-mailer, at Thomism% in Bellaire ; the De fendant is innkeeper at the White Horfe, Friday- Itreet. Mr. Lawns raid, that on the necalion of a wager laid at the Inn of Mr. Waterhoufe, between the -Plaintiff and a Mr. Holbrook, the Defendant became the Rake holder of a depofit made by the Plaintiff t.) the amount of too guineas. The terms of the wager appeared on the face of the receipt given by the Defendant,- which nosed. that " Mr. Edward Fro moot did bet Mr. William Holbrook. the film of too guinea., that he Fromont, or Come one for him, would travel too miles in chaifet, and to be drawn by buries, mares, or geldings, and only two of them to be in fuch chaifes at one time. The journey to be performed in fix fricceflive hours, and in the (pace of r ne month from the date of the receipt. Fromont to be allowed to chufe the grriund, and the number of chaifes he thought neceffeit y. Holbrook betted the contrary." This action WAS brought to recover the amount of lurch depofit, Mr Fromont having abandoned the wager, as illegal. The LeUrned Counfel laid, that there were many cafes to Phew the illegality of filch wager:, as in the cafe of " Zimenes and Jaques" (6 Term Rep. 4 19), and of " Whaley and Pigot." Bets laid on rates on the turf were legal to a certain extent, as favourable to the im provement of one of the m ft ufeful animals ; but bode races on the road were against reafon and po licy, as being r'earuetive of the animal, and dangerous to the King's fubjeels The Learned Coonfel then produced the proof as to the depofit ; after which Mr. Li.)varr, for the Defendant, (aid, that the condition of the wager was to play or pay ; but the Plaintiff cloak to do neither, and had therefore brought this aclinn. It was true that races of this defcription were illegal, and when they were laid, the confidence was implied that neither of the parties would take advantage of the arid rule of law. This confidence, which with a man of honour was more binding than Any mire legal obligation, the Plaintiff had thought fit to abufe. Mr. Watcrhoufe, the pre fent Defendant, was only nominally concerned ; the seal party was Mr. Holbrook, who would have to pay what might be recovered. Mr. Holbrook was a refpeelable man, who was only blameable for the credit he gave to the integrity of the Plaintiff. It was right that loch conduit Ihould be expofed, in order that others might not ("offer from the like cre dulity. He hoped, that the Court and Jury would perceive, that the depofit was made by the Plaintiff upon an illegal contrail, and that, therefore, he was nut entitled to the verdid. After rew obfer nations from the Sheriff, who fig. nified that they were not in a Court of honour, but of law, a verdict was found for the Plaintiff—One hundred Guineas. OI.D BAILEY, APRIL 11. Mr. Williams, late proprietor of the Swan with two Necks, in LAti•lAlle, WAS put to the bar before ten o'clock in the morning and arraigned on an indid ingot, charging him with having on the 29th of De cember, 113os, ailfulty, fclonioufly, and malicioufly fet file to his prcmifes, with intent to defraud the proprietors of the Globe and Sun Fire Infarance Offices. . biefrs. GUIVIT. Ptrcatau, and Bott.artn were Counfel f r the profecution. The cafe, on the part of the prifoner was tondueed by Mr. Seijeant Bast., Mr. Dancsy, Mr. ALIA', and Mr. Gums. After a Aron opening by Mr. But.t.amo, Mr. GUR• WIT. in a fpeech which !ailed upwards of an hour and a halt, Rated the faits of the cafe, as he was inflrult.e,d they would be fubflantiated by evidence that would be adduced to the Court and Jury. Ac cording to, the prailice that has of late prevailed in our Courts of Criminal Judicature, a model of the prcmifes was produced, with upwards of one hun dred different apartments marked with the names or numbers by which they svelte dininguithed, fo that the July might be the more Ilrongly impreffed with the idea of the different fituations in which fire was found to have taken place. The Learned Counfel, however, mon candidly obferved, that the principal faits would be (worn to by a man of the name of Trigge, who had been a fer vont to the prifoner. The evidence of this man was to be received with caution, as if he were an accomplice, though the Learned Connie! had no reafon to believe that it was fo.— This was on account of the certainly blameable con• dna of the witnefs in having for a confiderable length of time concealed his knowledge of the molt fufpicious part of the fire. However, in the mon lenient p,•int of view, as far as his tellimony was borne out by other circum(lances, he would be entitled to full credit with the Court and Jury. M.. James B. Hall, Surveyor of the Sun Fire Of fee, ”. as then called. He proved that in the month of 1805,. the prifoner was infused at the Stun Fit e Office for 60001. In the December follow. ing lie applied to have his policy made out for 90001. hot that was not icnt home to the prifoner. The Witnefs received a third policy from the hands of the prifoner. This was done at the Globe Office for the fum of 4.cc. - cl. A good deJ of .irgnment then took place between the Counfel on both tides, as to the power of the Di• reo3rs to profeente, without naming all the proprie tors. But Lord L: t.zsisoitoto 14 obferved, that they who fltlfetibed the policy were perfonally liable in the fir ft innance. Sir Thomas Thenpliilus Metcalfe, James Richard It:dley, and Sir Walter Stirling, had finned the policy ; they were therefore anfwerable on the one hand,and had a right to ptofe cute on the other. - If an anion were to be brought tinder this policy againtl any others but thole three, he Ihould direift the plaintiff to be non-fnited. Thomas 'Fr igge, who o as chamberlain at the Swan with two Necks, Lad-lane, in December 00 . 5, noted, that about fix in the evening a fire was difcovered in a place called the wond-ronm, which waea garret that was for lumber. This fire was not esta , ntnithed u n til between ten and eleven at night. In about an hour „after that - another fire was difcovered room No. 27. Here, he Paid, the firemen of the Sun Fire Office pulled out a candle tick from under the hed. This fire was Coon extinguitbed. When all all appeared to be fafe, Mr. Williams went to bed, at bout half pail one o'clock ; but, between two and three in the morning a third fire broke out—this was at No. r 6; the firemen chopped down the door, played their engines, and it was foot' eztinguifhed. There was alfo a fire in NC,. 21, but it did very little damage, and went nut without any thing being done to extinguifh it. At four in the morning Mrs. Simp• fon, the head chambermaid, and the Witnefs found that a fmall clofet, of No. 66, was on fire; the lower fhelf was all of a blaze. There was a bottle with three or four, or perhaps five glaffes of brandy in it . —the bottle was hot, and the witnefs tatted the brandy. This fire appeared to have been occafioned by (Mall bits of paper, the cinders of which were then on the fhelf. The Witnefs extinguilhed this fire with a piece of green baize that he found in the cup board. He afterwards told his mailer, that if the people at the Influence Office were to know of this fire, his lantana; would not be worth a farthing.— At his mailer's meet he fecreted the boards that had been partly burned, and did not make the people who came from the Fire Office. acquainted with either of thefe circumffances until after he was difcharged. He owed no enmity to his matter, and had never threatened or hinted that he would accufe him of any other capital offence. Mary Simpfon, the head chambermaid, corrobo rated frame of the fails related by the lan witnefs ; but flee (fated that in the clofet of No. 66, the wood' was black and fmoaking, it was not in a blaze. She did not fee Trigge mile the brandy, nor was there any thing but draining in the . bottle ; it was quite cold when it was taken off the shelf. About the months of May or June following, Mr. Williams de termined on uniting the places of chamberlain and chambermaid together, fo as to make one perfon do the duty of both ; he offered the double lituation to the witnefs ; (he told Trigge of this, and he was very angry. The fame evening he got x line and rule and appeared tobe meafur ing dillances about various parts of the horde ; he had a pen and ink and wrote tome. thing occafionally as he went on. Mr. Hall was again examined ; he (wore, that at No. at, the place where the fourth fire was hated to have taken place, the bed curtains had the appear• ante of having been burned, and the glais of the window was cracked as if by fire. The lines in a crack, which was occationed by fire, was of a different form from thole that were occafioned by any preffure againit the glafs. He examined the prifoner,' and took down his words, on the morning after the fire. At that examination the prifoner omitted giving him any account of the fire that had taken place in the clofet of No. 66. John Fletcher, who was, at the time of the fire, head waiter in the priloner's hook, depofed that his matter appeared to be extreme'y anxious about his property ; he gave direilions to all the fervants, about fixteen in number, fome to fecnre the moil va luable of his own property and the luggage of the gentlemen who lodged in the home ; and on the fir ft (lit - cowry of the fire he ordered all the affillance that could poffibly be procured to endeavour t textinguifh the flames, whilft a fervant was fent off to acquaint the firemen of the accident. Luke Bark, an under waiter, faw furniture remov ed from placer that were on fire towards No. 27. — He heard his matter fay, " For Goo's fake do what you can to get a fupply of water." Mils Mather, a young lady who vifited the family of Mr. Williams, heard Trigge infinuate, a short titne before he was difcharged, that his mailer had been guilty of a moll heinous crime, of a different nature from that for which he was now tried. This teflimony was corroborated by one of the fervants in the tioufe. Mr. Moore, a clerk at the Batik of England, heard Trigge fay, the day after the fire, that he believed the fecond fire had been occalioned by the removal of furniture that was partly on fire to No. 27. Mr. Frilby, wine merchant, who is an aflignee to the prifoner, under a Commiffion of Bankruptcy that bas been iffued againft him fince the time of the fire, gave him a moil excellent charadter. Mr. Lewis, of the New York Coffee Houfe, whom the prifoner bad (creed three or four years as waiter, alto bore tetlimony to the prifoner's honefly and good conduit. Mr. Thomas Hart had fuch an excellent opinion of the prifoner's honelly, that he took his premifes with tire ft iendly view of giving them up to him whenever. he might be enabled to refume his bufinefs. Mr. Waterhoufe, coach mater, alfo appeared on behalf of the prifoner, both as to his chara4ter and the es , ertions which he n:ade at the time of the fire to en deavour to ;et it extingnifhed. • After a miaute and impartial charge from Lord ELLENSOROUGH, the Jury withdrew for about the fpace of 20 minutes ; and, at half pall eight at night, ' pronounced the prifoner—Not Guilty. He was genteelly dreffed in black, and appeared I to liflen to every thing that was faid againtt him with great attention and uncommon firmnefs.
