r.. 77 3 I L . • ~: t f --~~~ they were to be divided among the creditors ; and in case there should be any surplus, it, wae-te. be paid or reassigned to Stockdale, or his representatlien, subject to the then existing incombrances. When the proceeds amounted to 10001-they were to be laid out in Exchequer hills, and when to 1001. to he de posited in the handset certain bankers, for slfecus. The trustees covenanted that they eoold never bring actions mailers - him, awl if they did, that he might plead that deed in bar. It was then pro. sided, that, in case all the creditors, 'whose debts amounted to 501. and upwards, did not execute the deed before the 18th of the ensuing month ' it should be null and void. This deed was executed by many creditors. but others refused to sign; and Mr. Jef hey, er creditor, arrested Mr. Steel:dale. On the Ist of April. 1814, an agreement was ese. meted, as to the retail trade ; and after this, Mr. Steckdale was permitted till his death to carry on that business, and was not to he interfered in, till it was seen th.ir his property would sent folly pay his creditors. lie preformed all the stipulations in the deed ; unless the omission of filename of Mr. Crewe„ one of his creditors, should he considered as an un fair representation of his affairs ; but it had never been imputed in any of the proceedings, tart he omit. • ted that name with an improper view. Several ere. ditors, however, 'snobd not come in. One took out -a comelission of brekreptcy, and then another eon. mission was betted ; acid when he died, n'etommis. Won was: standing against him. By his still, made many yearcheforee. he appointed his wife Pliecutrix, and residuary legatee;. and she ought to have been permitted to ova ry cAr besiness, for the support ref herself and: family,. She took feessessiete; but a hilt was soon afterwards fil.d.by Mr-Smith, a creditor, whose debt was.contracted subsequent to the e=cru scion of the deed of trust,, to have an account taken against her aeewecutritt. Application was then made fur the appointment of a receiver, and the Court di sleeted s. reference to. the Master. The learned Counsel then proceeded to state, that the trustees. had sold part of the testator's property, and it was', charged by the bill, that they had sold enough. to pay all the creditors. The debts amounted to rather more than 10,0001. and they had received neelrris of 1.8,(XX)I. They had sold a great part ..f lite hooks. belostiing to Mr. Stockdale, but they had almost all thlteisetwes become the purchasers, at extremely re. duce.) pricey, hating given about one-third of what the'vropeity *oultl have produced at a retail price; ; but they thought proper to make the sales among booksellers only. The LORD Cu A NMLLOA here asked, in what man ner those sales were conducted. Did the booksellers bid one above Rim/her Sir . SAXWEL ROMILLY replied, he knew nothing of the mysteries of those trade sides; hut notl•ing could more strongly show the impropriely of trustees be coming purchasers than whit the Wien(' tilts stated. In fact, they hail been enabled to make a profit of sisq-sis tier Cent. The LORD CHANCELLOR.--" If i am not mis. taken, the booksellers do not permit any other per son to come into the site-room, but teach says, want Ibis article, and then he takes it at nis own • prices This is a very comical mode of selling pro perty ; it is a kind of unintelligible contract, known only to the honk sellers themselves." Sir. SA:4U ft. RODULI.Y continued. The trustees b3d.thought it right to stop Mn.s Storkilalo's road hs havilig 'recourse to the mortgage ride of 1813. She en.!easoored to resist that proceeding, but ids Lordship thought she could not., rind they teco'reted judgment, amid went and turned her out. — They had since brought an action for mesne profits; The question was, whether this Nal not really in direct opposition to the good faith of the agreement Pada wit h Mr. Stockdale, who was not to bedisturbed till it appeared whether his other' property would produce 20s. in the pound. These genilemen, however, wanted to put an end to that trade, as Sim S. lead given great offence to them. As to the Douro in Old Bond street, Mr. Applegarth uns the morlogee, hut he had made himself one of the trustees, and had undertaken to manage the con, terns to the hest advantage. Since Mr. Stockdale's death, that house bad remained unoccupied, and Mrs. S. took o poet herself to enter into an agreement to let It to Mr. Lowe at 2001. a year, - vith a pro miurit of 1001. on panting (he lease. The trustees had no person who offered a higher rent ; hut they Mated, that they were proceeding against Lowe, for the purpose of baring the premises untenanted, es far as he was concerned : they did not say, that they knew the value of that property. All that 11 n. S. desised was, that the agreement with Lowe might be referred to the Master ; and, if he should find it beneficial, that a lease might hr setttotl, stud that the Court would restrain the 1.) ,, fe dams from proceed- • log in the action for !nestle profits. Mr. ltcr.r. followed on the same side. Tie observed, that the I)'tetldauts insinuated, that the instrument. of April, 1131 1, did not form part of the original agreement oil!' Mr. Stockolale ; but it was etidently! one traosactiots. Mr. Stockdale's shop was the resort of literary men, for reading the political pamphlets' . of the day; it was highly important, therefore, that he should retain the retail trade, with a capital of 1(001. and if that was the meardue with resiewt to I~lr. S. it must be the same in regard in his widow, who was his executrix, nod residary legatee. One of the Defendants said, that he hail a mortgage on the lira - Telt) ; hut if he had held forth to Mr. S. as an alleantage, that he should carry on the retail trade, and that trade could not be carried un without the: hou‘e, m mild he guilty of a breach of grind faith, if he were now to art on his security. The Le arne d Couitsel had hen rd of a rise of a marriage settlement, here.the holy hail obli4ed her intended husband to covestaist, that he would keep her a carriage ; he did keep • a carriage, but too coachman or horses, s o that the object she had in view was entirely frustrated. This was a similar free; but it remained for the Court to deride, whether • the Defendant was not bound to receive his money out of thegeneral assign ment, withr , ut resorting to this security, As to the mode its %%111(11 the trade sales were coodocted, he he. lieverhit wa his : a bookseller assembles his friends, ' <titres them a good dinner and p'etity of wine; ,heir hearts are open, he proposes a lot, Ilkheist pi ice is offered, he lets it go, as he take the neat lot to himself. It was nut led, that booksellers should buy at a re it: they buy to sell again ; but thete trustees had furnished pence to themselves. Mr. Spi. a't'the trade fiwl(rei 60f. 04. 6't. price would have prod-flee/I IVA. 12i. The Loan Cu t xcELtoit.--!‘ Does he say bow the price was titled?" Mr. BEL L replied, Shit he did not; but it was .fixed either by themetelert or their agents. Loran Oil VCEL L 014.-, Of whom did he buy. them ? f dare say their iniicitor can tell me." . • * • Mr. BELL.iben stated what Mr. Bensley and Mr. Key gave at the trade sales, being about one-third of the retail. prices. I- The LORD CIIANCFLLOR.--" I want to learn of the trustees hew these sales were conducted. Did Ithey all meet, as if they were bu% ing the properly of one another? I must unde,stand how the fact is. I cannot admit a . hookseller who i 4 a trustee, to he a purchaser, any more than any other per son." Mr. Brut..--M Your Lordship sees, that it is an excellent way to di•poce of a bankrupt'+ property to let his friends have a good bargain. I have no doubt, when the accounts are made nut,. that the costs of these suits against Mrs. S. will form a considerable item, and that the trustees will endeavour to reduce the property. I submit, hoiseter, that they have greed improperly at these sales, and that they ought to- he restrained ftom proceeding for , the mesne profits." This was the case on the part of Mrs. Stnckdale. Mr. flirt and Mr. Wingfield are retained on the other side : but as the former Gentleman was plead ing hefute the Vice•ChancPllor when Mr. Bell con. eluded his argument, the Loup Cituscet.t.ou di. rected the matter to be proceeded in* tornoirour.— Ilk Lordship did not think it right, in the absence of Mr. Vert,. to inetitiem what he thought of it. COURT OF Kpirrs nENCu, Doc.L T. LAXE V Ae4Es ‘rei.Eo%Tr. This Nat an fiction fewa libel, instil shed against the Plaintiff by the I)efentl , int, in clue life-time of her husband. The charge in the libel was of a dia bolical nature, and %As contained in a letter which the Defendant had found in a bona* whictrthe Plain tiff had formerly inhabited. The circumstances are much too disgusting to admit of detail, even were they of interest. For the Deleitilaitt a paper was produced, signed by birth parties same time previous to the Cl/111111111.110." lIIPIIi of proceedings, in which, on condition that the Potentlaid would barn certain papers, the Plaintiff agreed not to commence ails action. rd FiLLF.NIOHOUGII *Ns of noinion that this was an accord and saii.faction that could tie l ove s , in eti. deuce, under t-e general isime in an action run the case; and as only nominal damages could be given after proof.

It bp. peered clear, twit the Imre, which was the founds. 11 00 of this action, had been written by the head of a gang of tioreilde some tinu t . since exhi. bited in the pillory, who haul endeavoured by such means to wool, money from many respectable and distingoistied indisiduals ; harnig acxitiontally de volved into she hands of the Deivia l lent; Oho tr‘d had some disputes with the • Plaintiff; elne'emplojed it in a manner very injurious to the theiactil of the latter. • HUCKIitI4R V. E. swiss, T. RUROF'4,ANP R. BURGS. This oasts occupied a considerahle,portion of the time of the Court, but the facts . may be shortly stated. The Plaintiff, who keeps epuklic-liouse, WIS in debteil to the Dc ern - lint Jones 261. for coals,. and not being able to obtain payment, Jones sued out a. Marsha'sea writ, which the two oilier laffetninnl4, officers the Mar•lialsea Court, wore to esecute.— On the 14th Septemher, they went to the house of the Plaintiff, iti,Golderi.latie, for the yui Fo,c of arresting him ; •and telling him their ob, krt, agte..ti to wait until'he could spoil for bail,' White they were in another part of the house, Muck sler, she Plaintiff, ran off %Puma his •hat, and the. officers werg consequently defeated. They went gigabit on Sunday morning, the .17th •of September, basing b PH informed! that Huckak'r hid returned ; and, during Divine Service, by breaking open the door they entered the house, and seized the Plaintiff by the collar with great violence, using very abusive language, and threatening to carry him to Newgate. While they were struggling, 4 tailor, named Dunt, • oho happened to be there, interfered in favour of the Plaintiff, insisting upon seeing the warrant, which the officers pretended was for an escape. *.• No such anthori•y was, however, produced, a Marshalsen writ being qll they could show. The valiant• tailor s o c. seeded in c((• (( !telling the officers In gait their hold of the Plaintiff, and a mob being assembled, the con stables of the parish were called in, who refused to act in behalf of the officers on the insufficient war rant exhibited, which alone could not justify either a forcible entry nt any time, or a mere arrest on Sun day. After remaining in the house about three hours, the officers resigoicil the cosiest, and for the outrage the Plaintiff brought this actio n of t r esp a s and assault. For the Plailltiti it was 41.40 stated, that his wife had heels so alarmed by the violence offered to her husband, that idie died a week after •tards, leaving four young children : but the Chief Justice held, that evidence of this fact could not be ad m itted as q ground for special damage, iheogltir might •be used to show the brutal e Imo of the ocers. For the Defendants the Arrottatelr.G ffi Erscitxt sub mitted, that no proof had been given rt. (stake Jones a party to line tioiettee used by toe 'officers executing his writ, nod that be 11 . 4,4 consequently entitled to the verdict of the Jury. With regard to the Barges, he produced a witness who : gave a more moderate statement of their proceedings, and otherwise con tradicted this testinsoily on the other side. The Jury found a verdict for the Defeiwlant Jones; and for the Plaiittiff—Damages 401. aseiust T. and 11. Burge.
