In this cafe it appeared, from the de fondant's own (hewing, in her anftver to the bill; that the four intiruments, required by the Annuity Al, were not figned by all the witnelfes mentioned in the memorial. The Court could not prefume that the defendant had miflaken in her anfwer, for the deeds were now in her polka - ion; and if they were agreeable to the defcription in the memorial fhe might produce them. Lord ELLsnaoaooou Paid, he felt as much te• luflance as any Judge could feel in being bound by the aria letter of the Annuity Aft, to deter mine contrary to the honefiy and confcitnce of the cafe. The Annuity Aft, which was intended to proteit thole who granted annuities from the frauds and extortion of ufurious purchafers, was now it felf become an inftrument and engine of extortion in the hands of fraudulent men, who fold annui ties for a valuable confideration, and then, if they could find the leaft flaw in the memorial, or non conformance with the arid forms required by the Annuity Aft, they got rid of the annuity upon that ground. That law obliged him to fay the memorial was defeftive, and that this warrant of attorney muft be fet afide ; he mull, however, fay that this was an iniquitous and thamefultranfaftion. . , Mr. Juilice LAWRINCIe agreed with his Lord (hip in the law, and in his opinion, that this was a molt dilhonorable application, although the Court was obliged to grant it i • he hoped, however, that the family and reprefentatives of Sir Farnaby Radcliffe, would find tome way of making Sir RO:. bert pay the full value of the flock which he pur chafed, under the idea of its being chargeable with a good and legal annuity. Mr. Juftice .La &sac agreed with Lord Ellen borough and Mr. Juftice Lawrence, in the repro bation of the 'clithonefty of the applicationd The Rule was' made abfolute. Tat_ KING 17. The defendant, Wm.

The period allowed him had almott expired, but he now appeared in obedience to the procefs of the Court. Lord cLL EWBOROUO it, after confulting with the other Judges, Paid, that he mutt enter into a recog nizance, himfelf for cool. with two fureties for Sol. each. Mr. Bird immediately acknowledged that he owed unto our Lord the King the Cum of sool.the condition being that he ihourd keep the peace to wards his wife for the fpace of twelve months and two of his friends having undertaken for his good behaviour, he was allowed to retire. LAW INTELLIGENCL COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JULY 3. SIR ROBERT SUCKLES:I'H O. MRS. DAVENPORT. This was a motion to make a Rule abfolute that had been obtained by the Plaintiff, to fet afide a warrant of Attorney (which fecured an annuity to the defendant) on account of a flaw in the me morial. Mr. Gaaaow in (hewing caofe againft it, ob ferved, that it was an attempt to avoid the pay ment of the arrears of an annuity (which annuity the Plaintiff knew had been granted for a full con fideration) upon what lie fuppofed a technical flaw. The circumltances of this annuity and warrant of attorney were as follows :—lt had been granted in the year 1783 for a fum of tBool. by Sir Charles Farnaby Radcliffe, to a Mr. Sampfon, for the life of Lady Radcliffe, now dead. It was an annuity of 3001. fecured on certain Government Deben tures. The annuity was fold by Mr. Sampfon, who is now dead, and at length came into the hands of the Defendant, as reprefentative of her hufband; the reverfion of the Government flock, on which it was charged was bought by the Plaintiff, whn now, after all the original parties to this annuity are dead, and the witneffes alto, feeks to fet it afide on a flaw which he thinks he has difcovered.— The grand objetion that he makes to the memo rial is this, that it does not faithfully defcribc the number of witneffes to the four inftruments re quired by the Annuity At I inafmuch as it men tions the names of four witneffes as having figned them, when, by the anfwer of the defendant to a bill of difcovery, filed'againft her in Chancery, it appears that all the four witneffes did not fign all thofe inftruments. Mr. Garrow hoped that after fuch a lapfe of time, and when all the original parties, and the witneffes who could have explained the tranfation, were in their graves, the Court would rather prefume that every thing was regu larly and properly done.' Lady Radcliffe, as well as all the original parties, were now dead, and the objesft of the prefent application, and of the proceedings in Chancery, was merely to avoid pay ing the arrears due on the Paid annuity. Mr. EAST, on the fame fide, reminded the Court of the very ungracious nature of this ap lication ; Sir Robert Mackreath purchafed this Government flock on the ground and terms of its being chargeable with a legal and valid annuity ; but the moment he buys it, he begins to hunt for Come technical flaw in the deed of annuity. . . . . ass BARTLEY V. CURZON. The Court gave their judgment on this code, which mull be intere(ling to the mercantile world, as decifive of that doubtful and important point, whether a legal infurance can be effected on the expeded profits of d voyage? The infurance in this cafe had been made for zoool. on the profits of the (hip Jonah, from Bar. badoes to Africa, and back again. (hip was taken at Sierra Leone, by the French. Mr. Junice LAWRENCE, in giving the judgment of the Court upon this cafe, entered largely into the mercantile law of the different nations on the Continent, as that law now (lands, expounded by the writings of their ableft lawyers; he !hewed that in all thofe countries where profits were not allowed to conflitute an incurable interell, neither was freight or bottomry ; but the law in this coon• try was different. No real intereit was excluded from infurance—the law only forbids wagering pc. twin. Now the reafonable profits of a voyage in a trade long eltablifhed was no . gaming lio.cola t ion, but a real interetl , although not fo defined in its amount, as freight. There was no reafon why thofe who raked capital on the profits of a voyage flunild not infure returns of that capital, at well as thofe who expended it on (hipping. The profits l on the one adventure was as real an interelt as the profits on the other, although not fo certain or de. finite.—Judgment for the plaintiff. MANN V. SNI/FNALL AND ALLIS. The Court this day pronounced judgment in this cafe, which bad been argued the day before: the circumftances of the cafe were as follow:—one Heath, of whom the plaintiff was the reprefenta- Live, Chipped fugars from Jamaica, to be configned to the mercantile.houfe of Allifon and Riley, at Liverpool; the bills of lading were fent to them, and they inftrueled the defendants to infure the fugars to the amount of fool. The wail was loft, and the amount of the policy was received by the defendants, who returned it on two grounds ; that the houfe of Allifon and Aillef t who employed ►hem to infure, were in their debt,,and therefore they themfelves had a !an on thl'i policy ; adly, that the plaintiff was indebted to the houfe of Alli fon and Alley, and that therefore that houfe was entitled to retain the policy, or the money arifing from it. Thole different claims perplexed and confuted the caufe, as the plaintiff infilled that no debt d'l from Allifon and Miley to their agents, the -' fendants, could poffibly affect his rights. LordEsslasoaouon,afterexplainingthe caul of this confufion, gave the judgment of the Cou that the defendants, as agents or fervants of haute of Allifon and Alley, might retain that r perty in which the bottle of Allifon and Miley a claim : their pofeffion was the poffeffton of 1111 de. tures DM. the • pro. • had that :•
