JUJIR 11. WILD O. ORIFIIII.ILLIGITIWATI ONILDRIIL. Mr. GARROW Rated, that this was an adios on a promiffory note for t3l. which the Defendant had given the Plaintiff, one of the Overfeers of the wins of St. John, Clerkenwell, to indemnify the par& for the maintenance of an illegitimate child affiliated on the Defendant. He Mould prove the fignature to the note, and defer any further obfervations un til he had heard what fhould be alledged on tile part of the Defendant. The proof'of the note conaituted the whisk of the Plaintiff's cafe; it was proved by one of the pa rilbioners. Mr. Glass addreffcd the Jury on behalf of the Defendant, whom he defcribed as a poor hair &eller, who, in a rafts and evil hour, had plucked forbidden, fruit, and placed himfelf in the relation of a putative father to a fpurious offspring. A lady of the parills of Clcrkenwell had thought proper to place a ballast child to his account, and having taken the oath of identity, the Parilh Officers iffued their wamnt, feized the unfortunate barber, and threatened to in carcerate him, if he did not forthwith depofittearlab to the amount of 401. liorty pounds I exclaimed the tonfor ; it was more than he poffeffed, ever had polkaed, or ever mild pnrefs, by the hnneft and le gitimate profits of his profefnon, ancient and refpec. table as it was. The Officers moderated their de mand, but xBl. was the J im gra men of his releafe from durance. He agreed to this exallion, paid 31. down, and in the cantle of a week made up 41. The child died in the courfe of ten days, and of courfe the Officers got all this money for nothing ; for the Jury would hardly believe that its mainte nance for ten days could have colt any thing like fuch a fum : it was feercely necelfary to infer that it was not ufual for the pariLb of Clerkenwell to main tain illegitimate children at the rate of 231. a day. Well, the child died, but Griffin, the Defendant, did not know of its death—the Officers did, and what was their condat on the occalion ? They did net re tarn any part of the fum to the Defendant, but, on the contrary, they procured another warrant againtl him, and declared, that if he did not pay the remainder of the money Ilipulated for, to gaol he fitotild go. They, however, mull have known that they had by law no right to fend him to In iron ; be caufe the power of a Magifirate, in loch a cafe, only extended to the making an order for a weekly main tenance. The Defendant, unable to divine the cattle of loch unufnal hat ffinef, and iiverity, gave the note which conliituted the foundation of the prefent ac tion. He now refitted the payment of it, beeaufe he' had difcorered that the brat had only lived the Ikon period of ten or fourteen days. Nothing could be more clear than that he was not hound to pay it, At the time the note was given, the Parini Officers could not have enforced the payment of a farthing beyond a weekly allowance. Under thefe circum. fiances he contended the note was given without any contideration. Me Ihould call Mr. Dawes, one of the Overfeers, to prove this cafe. He was defined in his brief to call the Plaintiff, Ant by the rules of the Court that was not ufual, utlefs where, from Mee of evidence, the Officer of the Court called him, in order to nonfuit him. The Learned Counfel added, that there was a cafe let down for argument next term, repelling the legality of Para Officers taking protniffory note to indemnify them for the mainte nance of Willard children, the flatnte only empower• fug them to order a weekly payment. Mr. Dawes. a (t,taker, and one of the Overfeers of the parsfb, ,(firmed that be did not recoll92 wino • - ' '• ' lo i . • the thilf died ; the chid tne OM dad win de . oft was given, neither was chemise gives os the toy it bate date : the °miters d Cierkenwell did net ap ply any of the mosey they received to their own are 1 things were better managed in that point; the poor were under the fuperintenctance of irtaardians ; F the Outliers received ososey to bear them espesces through their month, and tiMy relieved the poor every evening. Mr. Glass fiabmitted, that as the Ibm for *lticlr the note was given was to go. to the reseal ore of the ;mini s the Plaintiff's winners being ear of the is habitants, was confequently incompetent. Mr. GAKILOW ' in anfwer to thisobtedios, raid that it was a matterof hostror Os the pert of the Hakes tiff, how be difpofed of the money raw he bad mew vered it. Mr. Gins repred, that if it was a matter of ho nour whether the Plaintiff Should apply the money to the ufe of the patina, or put it in his own pocket, it followed, in the latter cafe, that it was Ives without any confideration whatever. Lord P.l.t.iirsoaotion—ft A Parifh Officer WOD take the means of reimburfing himfelf. The Rabat has adopted the medium of this note, and liftmen, me he has a right to retain it." Mr. Genes—"" Then I contend there it no vale. able confideration, for the Plaintiff has not proved he paid any thing towards the fopport of the child, and if he had, 141. would more than overbalance his pay ment." Lord Eu.sisoitonon-- 44 We mot fuppofe than . Something was laid out open the child. It was he ;he workhoufe, and the jury and I Mai take it for granted Some money was expended." Mr. Goss—" I agree—'aqt here is 41. paid fair only ten days maintenance." Mr. Dawes re•examined.—He was not able to fay whether the maintenance of the child amounted to .41. ; he law the 'child the night before the nets was given ;he could not fay it was terra; it - Adam kook fo well as fosse chalets ; he easM net * tehithet it lived a week ; neither did he latiw blbilififtud• bender° many children died is the Nei& iffe ne• membered going into the lyiariet Ward ibe Mem bm fore the note was Signed.

He was extremely obliged to his Ladd thip, for his tall obfervatina, as it might athereife bavegone forth to the Public that the cooed of doe Para Officers had been improper. or that day MA been carders of their duty.

It bad been Rated that gs. 6d. a week was fufficient for maintaining a child in the country ; that charge made about sp. a month. In this cafe the pariik had been put to fume expence, not only for maintaining the child, bet for its funeral. It was for the Jury to fay. whether the Defendart had not overpaid the Wink ? It ap peared to him, that, at the time the child died, its maintenance had been more than fatisfied. and eon fequently them was no confederation for the sots, — With regard to what he had faid with reference to taking graft fums for indemnifying porde*, it did not apply to the parith of Clerkenwell ia particular ; he believed the poor were well takes care of Meru be merely intended to infer, that fuch a radiogram*- , ed a difregard as to the exifienee of the Andrea He mentioned this to avoid any mifreprefestatiem.
