LAW INTILLLRiENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Novamisk 22. IN RE-ELEPHANT AND CASTLE CHARITY. The LORD CHANCELLOR decided in this case, that the Oversew's of Newington Parish are not the trustees who are entitled to hold under the demise, and that it must be referred to the Master to report who are the proper truste.-s: all other matters to remain iu statu po until the Mastis shall have made his report. 11-PART! GRIMSTEAD IN THE HATTER OF HOWARD AND UIRSS r BANKRUPTS. Mr. MONTAGU said, in consequence of his Lordship's obliging offer to hear and decide upon this case finally, and without further proceedings, his client was ready to wave the new trial at law which the Court had granted hitn, and abide by his Lordship's decision. To this the assignees and all parties concerned now as sented. It only remained for his Lordship to fix a day for the hearing. Mr. Tamove expressed the readiness of the assignees to ac quiesce in any decision of his Lordship upon the case. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he would under take to decide, since the parties wished it, but not with a great deal of pie 'sure, as Mr. Montagu had suggested. In remarking, as he had done, that questions of bank uptcy were not well tried by an issue sent to the Courts of Law, he by no means ever intended it to be under stood that a Jury was not a tribunal greatly to be preferred to his individual judgment in most cases. lie thought that the Counsel should so far accommodate him and the suitors of the Court as to have the hearing fixed in some day of the Christmas vacation. It was subsequently agreed that the argument should be limited to one Counsel on each side, and those to be considered retained merely to perfect the Court in the recollection of the facts scattered through very lumi nous papers, which had been before used in the cause. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT ; NOVEMIEI HILL V. REARD'JN AND DEVEREUX. It appeared from the pleadings in this case, and from the statements of Counsel, that the subjects in dispute arose out of transactions which began many years ago. A Mr. and Mrs. Fanning quitted Ireland in the year 1776, and went to France, where they fixed their resi dence. They purchased landed property of great ex tent in the departmeht fLa Sarthe, and by the docu ments which secured the transfer of the property, it ap peared that the conveyance was made to the husband and wife en conmunante, and as a proof that the in terest of the wife was considerable, it was stated that Mts. Fanning was described by the title of La haute et 'lris puissance Dame, &c. Marie Theodosia Francois Butler. Mr. and Mrs. Fanning remained in possession of this propetty for several years, and during that period they bad two cli;liien—a son and a daughter. In the year 1788 Mrs. Fanning died, and Mr. Fanning retained the dominion over the property. The troubles of the Revolution commencing soon afterwards, the British family of Fanning became citajects of suspi cion, and at length, in the year 1792, Mr. Fanning, accompanied by his son and daughter, found it [access try to quit France, and they came to England. By virtue of an edict passe , i by the National Conven ,.ion, :he confi,cation of his preputy followed this step, and it was altogether seized upon by the Government. A large portion. of it was immediately sold, and. fell :nto the hands of various purchasers. The Gowen:. men!, however, chose to retain one part of it ; and this never having beeri :alienated, formed the subject of the ': revel: suit. It consisted of 166 hectares of timber land, and was I.re<erved for the use of the nation, on account of its being extremely valuable. The son end daughter of Mr. Fanning died intestate, the letter in 1801, and the former in 179 k, leaving their father then alive. He returned to France in 1809, and died in 1806, hay* first made a will, by which he bequeathed oneehist of all his property to certain charitable institteions in.,lre land, and appointed James Devereux, Esq. his resi duary legatee aril joint executor, with . Pr. Walsh. This will was duly .proved by Mr. Devereux, who imme diately proceeded to act ite his capacity of executor. , By one of the articles in the treaty. of the Allied Powers with France, and by a law subsequently passed in pursuance of the ti eaty, it was provi kJ, that all .t4e sequestrred property of emigtants seeich battiest been alienated, should be restored, or that a reneortience indemnity should he given to the representatives r4e emigrants Me Dever cur acne lingly preferred Isis claim to the Commissioners appciiivd under the lase, and after it bad been duly investigated, a sum of sem hundred thousand francs and upwards was awarded to him, on account of the property of the late Mr. Fan .ning. A part only of this sum had been actually paid, and the remainder was put in a course of liquidation in the manner oi:eight prover by the Commissioners. The present suit was instituted by a person claiming to he entitled, through the children of the late Mr. Fan ning, to the property belonging to him and his wife. The ground of this claim was, that the property, from the circumstances under which it had been purchased, was in the nature of an entailed estate, and that it could never ascend in succession ; that, therefore, the father, the testator, could never have inherited or acquired any right in it, and that consequently his disposition (alit by will must have been invalid. In support of this view of, the ease, ti.e article 1201 of the Code Civil, which enacts " Lorsque le testateur aura legue la chose d'autrni, le legs sera nul, snit tine la tevateur ait conntr, ou non, ne lui appartenoir tins," was chiefly re lied principle of universal justice which must regulate testamentary dispositions in every community. GaltithrT, behalf el the Conimissiolers of Charitee - e Donations and Bequests in Ireland, appeared tor the purpose of receiving the share which had been bequeathed by the testator I'r the benefit of charities. The defendants were Mr. D trereux and Mr. Reardon, to whom Mr. D vereux had given a charge upon the indemnity awarded hint for monies received. Mr. HART, who was Counsel for the defendants, was prepared to deny the sufficiency of the proofs offered by the plaintiffs, that the property had been entailed in the manner asserted. lie urged that from the nature of the estate, as well as flow the provisions of :the French law, it was impossible that the contrary conch!. siert could be arrived at. The opinions of two eminerit French lawyers, which established this prisition, were read by the Counsel: but the point chiefly relied upon • was, that the case bein one which de; ended wholly upon the laws and cu stoms of France, was without the jurisdiction of this Court. The question as to whether the testator, Mr. Fanning, had or had not a right to dispose, after the death of his children without issue and intestate, of the property which he and his wife had held ea communamtj? was one which could never be asceriained by the rules adopted by the English juris prudence. The award of money being to represent, or in the place of that property, must be subject to the same conclusions; and thus it was argued that part of the case stood wholly beyond the reach of the Court. With this, then, fell the right of the parties instituting the suit, and none of the plain tiffs, excepting the Commissioners of Charitaisle 8.- quests, had made out a case which entitled them to any relief. As tar as the disposition of that part of the property which the testator had directed to be applied in Great Britain, whether for charitable purposes or otherwise, the orders of the Court would, of course, : be to be obeyed. But Mr. Devereux had already proved his right to this property under the will of Air. Finning. He bad preferred his claim before the Commissioners, under an Act of the 59th of the late King, which was passed to regulate the claims of British subjects who had held property in France. In the course of that in vestigatien all the circumstances of the family of Fp ning had been detailed, but the Commissioners decided that Mr. Fanning was it naturalised French subject, and that therefore he was not included in the Act of Parlia ment referred to. Against this decision Mr. Devereux appealed to the Privy Council, who decreed in his favour, and the cause being thus sent back again to the Com missioners, it was decided by them with a reference to the law of France.. That law was in support of the claim of Mr. Devereux, and made the elder Mr. Fanning the representative of whatever interest his children had taken. The Commissioners then pronOunced him en titled to the amount of indemnity beforementioned. It was observed also, that but for the exertions which Mr. Devereux had made, the property would have been wholly lost, because the time limited . by the Act of Parliament had nearly expired, and would have ex pired before the parties now claiming could have taken any prcceedings. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL contended, that although Mr. Devereux had obtained possession of the property, he was only to be regarded in the light of a trustee, and that the Court had power to compel him to refund to the plaintiffs the sums which had been awarded to him.
