Mr. GURNEY and Mr. HoLT were for the plaintiffs, and the Arroasav GENERAL was for the defendants. Captain - Berans, the master of the vessel, stated that her owner was Lieutenant Jackson, of the N;vy, but that he, witness, took command of her at Deptford. and left the river on the 20. h of May, 1826, and entered Table Bay, at the Cape, between four and five o'clock, P.M. of the 28th of August. He brought her up by the small bower anchor, and gave her 90 fathoms of cable. The wind-was at N.N.E. but in the coarse of the eve. ning it chopped to the N.W. which occasioned a great swell, and the ship rolled very heavily. Atisbout half past six the chin cable parted, and at about a quarter before seven witness hove out the best bower anchor.— The swell increased to such a degree that the shank of the anchor was broken. Witness then made sail and endeavoured to beat out of the bay, but could not suc ceed, and the vessel was driven a,hore and broken up. A trifling part of the cargo-only was saved. Cross-examined by the a TTORNEY-GINIRAI,—The vessel was 10.5 tons burden. Witness had nothing to do with prise ing het for the voyage. When he first arrived in the Downy, the wind was fair, but witness did not sail because he was obliged to wait for Captain and Mrs. Jackson, who were to go out with him. He was also to have had another passenger, Mrs. Black, but she did not go with him, there being no provisions laid in for her. Thete•was also a pack of hounds on board. hut there not being sufficient provisions laid in for them, he landed them at Falmouth. Witness discovered before he •got there that there was not suffi.ient candles on board to last a week, that there was no pump-leather, and nt! log glasses, so that it was impossible to proceed in that state. Witness therefore put into Falmouth on the 26 h of May, and purchased several things. However, he sailed without having a third anchor and cable on board, excepting a small keJge anchor. 1n his opinion there ought to be three anchors at least for such la voyage, and he did not think that a vessel filed out in the man • ner of this vessel, was in a fit state to proceed on so long a voyage as to the Cape of Good Hope. Lord TENTERDEN said to Mr. Gurney, that if he c •uld not alter these faits, it appeared that the vessel was not sea worthy, and that there had been two de. viations. Mr. Gunmax made no reply, and the plaintiff was non-suited. °MONT V. RIILLT. This cause was called on, and none of the Special Jurymen appeared. • Lord Tetareacour sent for the summoning officer, and examined him upon his oath as to the service of the summons, when it appeared that several of the Jurymen were out of town, four were dead, five could no►' be found, and some lead removed out of the city, so that there were only two who had s been petsonally served.— The Lqrd Chief Justice direited the e two Gentlemen to be . rteci 101. each. Upon further inquiry, it appeared that the books from which the list had been taken were made out se long ago as three years; at which his Lord ship expressed his disapprobation. His Lordship then took common Jury causes. •it re' sago for cant r the awe th K •t I' mg % bin get n. at ipl rot It of BLACKLOW, ONg, &C. AGAINST VAREBROTHIEN ♦ND fendant 441 lie to take would Mr. the pl, chose in order °THUM This was an action for false imprisonment, broughs against the late Sheriff of Middlesex, and against Messrs. Shapcott and Joseph, two Sheriff's officers, for arresting the plaintiff, whom they erroneously supposed to be a Mr. Benjimin Pearson, against whom the offi cers had a writ. , The Arrottaxe• GINERAL,. *in stating the case, said that the action was for a'very gross outrage, com mitted under the most wanton and unjustifiable cir cumstances. His client was a respectable attorney,' Whose object in bringing the action was not damages, but to punish the two officers for their misconduct.— The plaintiff bad been arrested through mistake, and, lbad he been treated with that decency and mildness Which every man was entitled to, he would never have thought of instituting proceedings, but he wished to make an - example of the officers for the unnecessary grossness and harshness of their behaviour. On the 7th of last April the. plaintiff had occasion to go to Highgate, and when returning home in the evening, be was assailed, near the Archway, by the two defend ants, Shapcott and Joseph, who it appeared had a writ against a Mr. Benjamin Pearson. Shapcott, after asking hum a few questions, told him he had a writ against him, and laid hold of him. The plaintiff said he was mistaken ; but they insisted that they were not, and dragged him along in the most violent manner to the Highgate Archway Tavern; and when he expressed a wish to see the landlord, and desired for that purpose to go into the bar, they would not let him do so, and refused to hear any explanation of their mistake, but forced him into a room up stairs. Shortly afterwards, the landlord was sent for, and on entering the room he saw the plaintiff sheering his pocket-book to the officers, lad endeavouring to convince them who he was. In deed, he warned them repeatedly, but they for a long time refused to receive his explanatio'. They at last, however, did receive his card, and beginning to suspect that they were wrong, they told him that he was at liberty, after which they made apologies as abject as del . conduct had be.in outrageous: these apologies the plaintiff felt it his dory to reject. • William Coulson, son of the lessee of the tolls at the Highgate Archway, saw two persons whom he did not know go op to the plaintiff, between five and six o'clock of the evening of the 7th of A;ril last, and tell him to come along. Some words ensued, and they dragged him to the Archway public house, a distan.e of ,+bout• .50 yards. to the snuggle the plaintiff's hat fell off. Witness did not hear what was said. Thomas Shorter, the landlord of the public-house, remembered two persons coming on the 7th of Apia to his house in a coach. They took some refreshment, after which they went nut, but returned in a short time, dragging the plaintiff along. There was a great bustle. The plaintiff, upon being brought into the house, asked to go into the bar, but the men would not let him, and witness told him it was not his custom to let people in there. The plaintiff, by his appearance, seemed as if be l.ei just escaped from a madhouse. The officers were tre.sting him very roughly. They took him to a room up stairs. The bell was rung, and upon the waiter going up, the plaintiff &sited to see Pitiless, who went up, and heard the plaintiff say he could satisfy them that he was not the mill they were in search of. I be plaintiff s'iewed them his pocket book, and gave, witness his c.trd. Upon hearing his name, one of the men said he thought he knew him. The names of the men were mentioned, but witness could not recollect the names. They made many apologies, but the plain‘ tif f said he would not receive them, on account of 'the manners. There was a the_ s. Cathet against a Mr. Benjamin Pearson, WhiCh bad been a long time in the hands of the defendants, w ho had with great' difficulty, traced Pearson to the Highgate Archway, where they understood he was to get into one of she Man chester coaches. As they did not personally know Pear son, they naturally thought that if they saw a man look ing out for a coach, that man would in all probability be the person they were in qisest of, and seeing the plain. tiff coming from the direction of a house where they understood Pearson was, and making a long crane neck as if looking for the coach, they accosted him as Mr. Benjamip Pearson. Had he then told thrm he was not Mr. P. arson, but Mr. lilac klow, an snot ney. they would as soon have touched a snake as have laid hands upon him; but the Jury would heir that he was over and over again accosted by the name of Pearson, and that be and'ri ed himself to be so addressed, without takiag shy pains to undeceive she officers until he got a copy, of she wai rant, when he told them his name, and abused them, and threatened them with proceedings. A man who answers to the manse of the person in search of whom Sheriff's officers are going, must thank him- self for the inconvenience he is pot to. . William Pearson—Wittte.X knew LTG Catherwood, and . that be bad issued a writ against Benjamin Pear son, and being of ,tfie same name, it was suggested to witness that he-Might trace him. Witness went with the two defendants to the Archway. Whilst sitting there, they saw the plaintiff. coming as if from the house of Mr. NeviUe, a relation of Benjamin Pear. ton. The defendants went cut, and witness followed. Joseph accosted the plaintiff, and said—" Mr. Ben jamin Pearson, of . U.recht." The plaintiff looked confuted, and coloured, but said—" What'tyour plea sure?' - Mr. John Catherwood then came up, took off his hat, and said—" Mr. Benjamin Pearson..' The plaintiff said," What is,..your pleasure, what do you want ?" Joseph then saidi " I have a writ against you, at the suit of Mr. Catherivood." The plaintiff said— " You can't take me ; you shan't take me." The officals said they .would, and went one on each side of him, and ;ook him to the public house, he continually saying— "'Tow can't take me," but never telling hittname. The plaintiff wished to go into the bar, but Shapcott said— " No, a private room." When we got in, the wan , was shown, and the plaintiff copied it. Witness wet* to Mr. Neville's house to get the plaintiff s luggage., thinking he was certainly Benjamin Pearson; tint wheel he got there be saw the real Mr. Benjamin Pearson who made his escape. Witness returneJ, and the plaintiff was liberated.- Cross-esamined.—Witneu was a cabinemnaker. He went to the Archway, after the action was commenced, to ascertain whether Benjamin Pearson went to Man chester that right. After the plaintiff gave his name, he behaved in the most outrageous manner ; he said, I'll knock any of you down, d—n me it 1 do not, and swore vary much at them all. The ott ers told him be had brought it all upon himself, but they were reads to make him an apology, although he did not deserve one, for it was his duty to have said at once who be was. The Arroauzi GENERAL replied, and contended that the outtage upon the plaintiff was much aggravated by the defence attempted to be set up. There was such a thing as overdoing the matter, and the evidence of Pear son was an instance of it. Lord TENTIRDEN said there was no evidence against the sheriffs. If the Jury thought the plaintiff misled the officers, they would give very small damages ; if they thought otherwise, they would give what-they should consider a fair compensation. Verdict for the two defendants the late sheriffs Not Civilly; and for the two other defendants, the officers, Guilty, with 101. damages. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Comment, Oce. 19. Sittings before Michaelmas Term, before the Lou Clair Juana; and Special Joke. SNOW 'AND OTIIERS 9. LITLAND AND OTIIIIRS. Mr. Sergeant BOsAlictUsT stated the case, The plain tiffs carried on the business of bankers in London, as did also the defendants at Liverpool. The object of the present action was to recover back the value of a Bank of England note of 1001. of which they had been rubbed, and which had since got into the defendants possession. It will be remembered that in November, 1824, the plaintiffs, in the absence of a confidential clerk, had sent their porter, named James, to the Bank of England fer the purpose of obtaining cash for seve ral dividend warrants, amounting to many hundreds. James had no sooner obtained the money than he was hustled in the street, and his pocket book, containing with many others the note in question, was taken from him, and no intelligence coup be obtained of it, until st was found to have passed int* the defendants,' bank. There have been many trials against different parties, arising out of this robbery, and in consequence much formal evidence was dispensed with. It was admitted that James was actually robbed. Mr. Henson, the plaintiffs Attorney, stated that in December, 1825, he wrote a letter to the - delendants, 4 informing them that he had heard they had received the note in question, and requesting them to inform him from whom it was received, stating at the same time that ir was one of those of which the plaintiffs had been robbed. They replied that they tlid not know from whom they had received it, adding, that they were not in the hati . t of taking notes from strangers. After the receipt of this letter, the witness went down to Liverpool, when ihe defendants exerted themselves in every possibli manner to ascertain to whom the note was passed ; but it was without avail, no information could be obtained respecting it. Two bill-sticker were called, who proved that they had stuck up notices of the robbery in all the principal parts of the town. Mr. Mattison, from the Stamp-office, produced a copy of the Morning Advertiser and of the Hitt and Cry, in which the robbery was advertised. This was the plaintiffs' case. Mr. Sergeant Vane, for the defendants, contended that from the testimony of the plaintiffs' own witness, it was evident no want of caution had been betrayed on the part of the defendants in receiving the note in ques tion. .In a business of such magnitude as theirs, it was - impossible to say from whom they might have re ceived any note, and it was not customary for persons to endorse their names at the back of a note. Under these circumstances, he contended the plaintiffs had no right to recover. „ The LOW:1(11M Railer., in su said mnfng up, it appeared tiknite char to hint that sbe tsed bsi 7 1 4. w it .it Do ' thi s * e l!. • t west*. tot theory. wen,Le say whpshar, kkey ,considere4 defendants 'had use 4 ►pioper . degree. of caistion? , y the plaintiffs could ha ve no T4/tit to recant; .. - Jury Iteftetad for some time ; 'but at Length Ver4inalft the dAndinti: e !seltsemmi - nee .• , .
