ASSIZES. YORK, AUGUST 16. BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. DAVISON V. WILSON. M,T. COLTMAN opened the pleadings.—The plain tiff, James Davison, asked compensation in damages for breach of promise of marriage by Rachel Wilson, the defendant. The defendant denied that any pro. anise had been given, and upon that issue was joined. Mr. SCARLETTr--He had to state to them the case opened by his Learned Friend. The plaintiff now applied to them for some reparation in damages for the loss he had sustained in being deprived of a mar riage which had been contracted, and from which he had reason to expect comfort and happiness. A ce lebrated writer who would be admired as long as the English language lived, and whose observations on life, manners, and human nattire - formed the surest authority to which their attention could be di rected—he meant Lord Bacon ; this celebrated writer had said, that" a young man marries for a mistress; a middle aged man, for a companion ; an old man, for a nurse. ' This remark was authorised by the highest species of philosophy, and by the justest views of human nature. " It is not good for man to be alone." Solitude at any period of life was not good: we were made for society, and for com municatin; and enjoying pleasure or consolation by reciprocity of attention and kindness. He made these remarks, merely because he observed a smile upon some faces on account of the age of his client. He admitted that he was 68 ; and if at least he could not provide himself with a nurse on account of the defendant's conduct, he was en titled to damages, and must 'feel as sensibly as a younger man the loss he suffered. The defendant was sufficiently advanced in life to be answerable for her promises; she had attained to all the discretion which years ensured; she was not a giddy, thought less, extravagant girl ; she was not of an age that would make her marriage with the plaintiff unhappy, as in many cases which occurred. She was a very steady, a very discreet, a very sensible Lady, and of as age quite suitable for the plaintiff. Miss Wilson, l he understood, was 64 years of age. (The burst of laughter infected the Learned Counsel himself, and occasioned a short pause in the love-story). They saw how difficult it was to excite sympathy for love at this age. He wished he possessed the genius and eloquence of a celebrated writer, a foreigner, who charmed all his readers by the description of love at the age of 60, or that he felt the genius and poetic fire of a great writer of our own age and country, Lord Byron, who had made the love of an old man of 80 the subject of a tragedy. The love which he had to state to the Jury was one of the soberest views which the passion presented. But there was great ad vaatagcs after all, in aged love—in having the com forts and advantages of a steady and matured union of sentiments. A true friend was boo to be found in any other state, if it was true that there was no real friendship but in perfect community of interests. The plaintiff had been originally a sea-faring man, and by his distinguished gallantry on board a vessel which he commanded he had raised himself to notice. He had been married, and had had a family, of whom some were now living. His wife had died in 1805. Since that time he lived in Ayton, where the defend ant lived with her father, mother, and younger sister. The plaintiff's and defendant's families meeting, in the same line of life, they became acquainted. From long acquaintance, Mr. Davison and Miss Wilson learned to esteem each other. When he became a widower his visits were more frequent. She had then a brother, who was his particular friend, but was now dead. They thus became extremely well acquainted with each other, and cherished the greatest mutual respect. At length her father, her mother, and her younger sister died, leaving her alone of the family. He (Mr. Scarlett) was able to shew, that before this period great intimacy and constant intercourse had subsisted, though there had been then no views of a matrimonial connexion, but of friendship only. But, at that time the mutual attachment which had been so long increasing had taken a different turn. She was lett desolate, not in fortune, for she had £10,000; but she was alone in life, having lost her father, mother, brother, and sister. This Gentleman conti nued to be one of her most intimate friends; in him she reposed confidence; him she consulted in the ad ministration of her affairs. In this state she would not find It inconvenient to have the affection and at tachment of one who understood the world, and who Wald be of great use in managing her affairs. She,. living alone in the house which her family had occu pied, had resolved, from the extreme inconveniences of the house, which was old, and too large, to sell it. She quitted it, and took lodgings of a Mr. Williams, in Gisbrough, leaving the plaintiff to arrange the various matters which she had to settle in Ayton.— At this period he should begin to lay before them evidence of that contract, the breach of which was the ground of the present action, although he felt averse to expose the enlightened communications which were made upon this subject. She had actu ally made the plaintiff engage a house, in order to live together in it as man and wife. How it was, then, that the union had not taken place would be shewn to them. He (Mr. Scarlett) did not mean to say that his client had Leen so absurd as to despise the additional comforts to be derived from a wife's fortune; but her fortune was not his object. He had said—". With respect to fortune I ask not a farthing; settle it as you please, except what may be necessary for our living comfortably." But as matters ap. proached a crisis, and after she had left the house at Ayton, he wrote her a letter, which the other party were now challenged to produce, saying-4 , that she ought to communicate to Mr. and Mrs. Dodds her iatention of changing her condition." That was the cause of the present action, for they. one or both, had dissuaded her from fulfilling her engagement.— Ile would now lay before them the correspondence. They would not find in it the strong expressions of passion which a girl of eighteen might be expected to use, but the sober discretion and prudence which were required in a wife predominated. (The Learned Counsel here read extracts of several letters, in which the maiden lady made arrangements respecting her nephew, William Wilson, an organ, and the Mortgage of an estate, andifrom which the Learned Counsel inferred unbounded confidesice in her plighted lover.) Her letter of October ith, 1820, the directed him to burn. Why that caution? What she wrote Must have meaning in it, when so much' caution was ap plied to it. In her letter of . October 18th, the first i n timation of her intention to change her condition appeared. She avowed some views which she was unwilling to commit to paper. Those • views were communicated at a personal interview. They could not be proved as thus communicated, but they could be inferred from other letters. In her letter of the 2d of December she wrote, " Time brings all things about." Just what a Lady always said when the fixing of the day was proposed. Ask that it should be to-morrow: Impossible; but time brings all things about. " If it should be told to Mr. --, it will make me quite unhappy." This must have been some jester, who would make her uncomfortable by his jests on the subject. " None of my relations would disapprove of it." Let them observe that.— Disapprove of what ? The directions for taking a house, the apprehensions of ridicule, the reference to time bringing about all things, that was clearly the wedding day : then the allusions to the month of May proved distinctly what step the Lady meant to take. She directed that two cows would be sufficient. This was prudent attention. She further regretted that she had not been able to go to Ayton on a cer taro day to drink tea, but she would go on a certain day for the electrifying machine—(Here the Learned Counsel was interrupted with laughter.)—He would explain what this meant. Her young nephew was supposed to require electric shocks, and she would go to Ayton for the electrifying machine, and thus see Captain Davison, whom she had disappointed by not having kept her engagement in going to tea.— This was a good excuse for going to Ayton. She had been invited by some friends to the York Assizes. The Spring Assizes at York were pleasant. He un derstood that there were festivities on those occasions, of which persons partook wisp did not work so hard as " you and I." May-time, too, was approaching. That was the happy month which time, that brought all things about, was to bring. That was the month which the Poet celebrated as the month of marriage : " Now from the virgin's cheek a fresher bloom Shoots, less and less, the live carnation round. Her lips blush deeper sweets The shining moisture swells into her eye. her wishing bosom heaves, With palpitations wild : kind tumults seize Her veins, and all her yielding MO is love !" (Repeated burets "laughter.) ad Whenever you marry again, Gentlemen, May is the proper time." She intimates to her accepted lover that she was to be gay next week at York, where she was to attend concerts and other amusements, suited to her prospects, and she directs him to take the in tended house only for six years. This was extremely prudent and proper, for the house might not be large enough in the course of six years. She approved of his advice to communicate her intention to Mr. and Mrs. Dodds, because they were good religious per sons, and very friindly to her and her family. She next corresponded respecting her residence after her return from York till the merry month of May; and in one of her letters she wrote, " I am very much watched here." She felt inconvenience in writing her letters and getting them into the Post-office. It had been all probably kind attention only, but she thought, as Ladies in such circumstances were apt to think, that all eyes were upon her—(.4 laugh).—ln this corres pondence it appears evident that she was to change her situation, that she knew the plaintiff's attach ment, and approved of it, and that her wedding-day was put off till May, for that was the time to bring all things about! But upon consulting Mr. and Mrs. Dodds, a change of mind took place, and she wrote a cold and doubtful letter. He asked an explanation. She answered with the same coldness and reserve. This was no doubt the advice of respectable persons. He did not blame Mr. and Mrs. Dodds. Every one had his own views of happiness. Mr. Justice BAYLEY.—A very kind advice it was, to prevent them from doing a very foolish thing. Mr. SCA RLETT.—Another letter was written, in timating that the house would not be required, and this letter was subscribed, " Your obedient servant, Rachel Wilson." (The former subscriptions had been " Your's, sincerely," &c.) The Jury would see from those circumstances the ground of complaint. She was most competent to judge for herself. There was a great deal of good feeling and good sense in the let ters which he had referred to. If, then, the contract was such as she had thought proper to make, and then to break, ought not some compensation to be made to the plaintiff? There were many reasons which might induce a man to look to marriage for happiness. Looking up to a matrimonial situation was surely a meritorious thing in any man. For the last fifteen years the plaintiff had been intimate with the defendant, and he was now thrown back on all the miseries of solitude. He was deprived of the prospect which her.promise had encouraged him to look to, and he lost a companion to support his old age. He would prove the promise from the letters of which he had read extracts. Mr. Justice BavLev.—And the breach, too, I sup pose? His Lordship then hell a short conversation with Mr. Scarlett, recommending an arrangement of a cause which his Lordship evidently thought was ill fitted for a Court of Justice. The attempt, however, appeared in the first instance to fail. Mr. George Dodds looked at a volume of letters put into his hands, and said he believed they were Miss Wilson's hand-writing. I think I have not seen any of Mr. Davison's letters to the defendant. I do know from Miss Wilson that she received some. I think she did not shew me any. At my age I cannot remember things as I ought. I think I did not hear any of them read. I don't know from Miss Wilson that she intended to marry. She did mention her in tention of changing her situation—in respect to the house taken at Ayton. That was the only change of situation she communicated to me. I swear it. She did not communicate any other change of situation to Mrs. Dodds in my hearing. An arrangement was again attempted. Mr. SCA aLarr.—Gentlemen of the Jury, I accede to a proposition from my Lord to take a verdict for a very small sum, and proceed no further in this cause. I beg to say, that I did not mean to cast any reflec tion on the Lady. Persons have aright to judge what is most suitable to themselves at every pei iod of life; and though solemn prpmises are not to be broken with impunity, yet, considering; the ages of the par ties, and their situation in life, I could not expect suds damages from yin as if the, wers►ponnger, and there were more love and sentiment in their attachment. Mr. RAINS.—I am very glad, Gentlemen, that this cause is put an end to. Mr. Justice BAYLEY—Twenty pounds is all, in the circumstance, which I have thought the plaintiff en titled to. The Foreman.--That is as much as w•e should be disposed to give. Mr. Justice BAYLEY.—I am happy that we have the same understanding on the subject. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages £2O. The Court was extremely crowded, especially with Ladies, and much merriment was excited by the of of disappointed love. CAMBRIDGE.' CHARGE OP RAPE. THE KIWI ON THE PROSECUTION OF ELIZABETH WHITING V. WILLIAM ITSON. The prosecutrix is a daughter of Mr. Whiting, of Soham, and the defendant a farmer, at Fordbam, and was indicted for an assault, with intention to commit a rape. From the nature of the evidence, the assault was of a most gross and brutal nature ; the prosecutrix was a young Lady 17 years old, and the defendant 30. It was aggravated by his paying his addresses to an elder sister, and, by gross perjury, endeavouring to ex culpate himself by the sacrifice of the unsullied cha racter and virtue of the Lady. What rendered the crime more heinous was,the premeditated way in which it was carried on, by erecting a stage in an unfre quented place, and having invited the prosecutrix to Landwade Church, to see the monuments of the Cotton firma y,and enticing her away from hei father and sister, with the full view of completing his brutal design. He was found Guilty, and sentenced to be imprisoned for two years. Bow- ST REET.•••••CO NJUGA L FELICITY: 31r •C. Mar garet Every, a respectable-looking elderly woman, was brought before G. It. 3llNstrott., Eq. on Sa turday last, on a peace warrant, at the suit of her husband, Mr. John Every, a leather-seller of exten sive business in Compton -street, &lio.—Mr. Every stated, that it was impossible for him to live with his wife, inasmuch as she harassed him to death.—The Magistrate told him it would be necessary for him to be more particular in describing his complaint.— Mr. Every replied, that she huhted him about the house, telling him of things, and that when he was sitting at his desk, she was in the habit of pinching his arms till they were black and blue!—Two of Mr. Every's servants deposed that Mrs Every was" rather hasty," and that she frequently held him, or, as it were, crucified him against the wall, whilst she scolded him for half an hour at a time.—The Magi strate expressed his astonishment that he suffered himself to be crucified and scolded in this way.— " Oh, Sir," said Mr.. Every, with a deep sigh, " it's impossible for me to help it ; she's a powerful woman, your worship—a very powerful woman; and when she's in a passion, a regiment of soldiers would hardly be a match for her!"—Whilst this story was telling, Mrs. Every wept bitter tears; and blew her nose con tinually, and with such vigour, that the byestanders began to fear she would annihilate it altogether. In her defence, she said that her poor, dear, first hus band, who was a tailor—and an upright man—was supposed to have I-ft her a hundred and twenty pounds a year, and her present husband, Mr. Every, had mar tied her solely to get this property into his hands. He was disappointed, howevet, for her late husband did not leave sufficient to pay his debts, and of course she got nothing. Ever since that time she has been " a widow indeed and in truth ;" for her husband, finding she was not likely to have any money, never would sleep with her; and although 'she was con tinually representing to him the baseness of his con duct, he was still obstinate.—The Magistrate recom mended Mr. Every to allow her a separate main tenance, and he immediately agreed to give her £6O a year; but this would not satisfy the lady ; she con tended, that as a wife, she was entitled to half Ms property, whatever it might be: he had indeed en gaged at the altar, to endow her with all his worldly goods ; and it was not fair, that after having been a church-going pains -taking wife to him for fourteen years, up early and down late, she should now be fobbed off with only EGO a year.—The Magistrate said that as she refused this overture, he had only one other alternative, and that. was ordering her to find bail to keep the peace towards her husband ; but this Mrs. Every refused to do, and was therefore placed in custody of the turnkey. ANOTHER AmAzors.--11frs. Sarah Sad, a well dressed fat little woman, was next charged with pull. ing Mr. Joseph Higginbotham all round his own house by his own nose !—Mrs. Sarah Sad admitted the said pulling, but denied that it was continued to such an extent as all round the house; and she at tempted to_ justify what she had done, on the g r ou n d that Mr. Higginbotham lrad called her by an ugly name.—Mrs. Sarah 'Sad was held to bail to answer the charge at the ensuing Sessions, though it appeared rather doubtful how she could have reached Mr. Hig ginbotham's nose, unless he had been so accommo dating as toliave put it in her way by stooping. Thomas Fitzgerald underwent a final examin a tio n before GEORGIC MINSHULL, Esq. charged with a daring footpad robbery on Friday, the 10th instant, in stopping and robbing Mr. Nicholas Peters, at mid day, near Primrose-hill.—Mr. Hawkins, a pawn broker, of Drury-lane, attended, and produced a watch, which he said he had taken in pledge from the prisoner on the day on which Mr. Peters was robbed.—Mr. Peters identified the watch as his pro perty.—The Magistrate, in. consequence, fully com mitted the prisoner for trial.—The prisoner was re cognised by Jones, the jailer, as having discovered him some time since, at a late hour,.under suspicious circumstances, in St. James's Park, near the wall of the King's stables.—The prisoner denied being the man whom Jones saw there; but on Saturday he acknowledged that Jones was correct, and that he was the man whom Jones saw in the Park. QUEEN-SQUARE.—On Saturday, William Harris. driver of the hackney-coach No. 22, was summoned for obstructing the line of procession for the funeral of the Queen, by drawing his coach in the road at Knightsbridge, and refusing to move on when ordered to do so by the Police. In defence, he said a Gentle man ordered him to take him from Charing.Cioss to meet the Procession, and stop in a convenient spot to we it pass. A Gentleman appeared on-behalf of Alie prisoner, whom he described to be a mo,t loyal sub- ject. The Magistrate said it watproper all hackney. coachmen should know they had no right to stop up a public road. He regretted that tlie defendant, having borne such a good character, should rend er himself liable to a prosecution, The object of th e summons was to bring him forth to be identified in order to proceed against him for public example ; therefore, the case was represented at the proper quarter, but whether such proceeding would take place is not yet ascertained. The defendant left the 1 Office, evidently much afflicted by the communication. UNIVEIZSITY INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD, AUGUST Ift.
