He could not swear did he had not asked him limy long lie was *6OO it. The Plaintiff in the present case had not commeitced an action against witness upon this transaction. A number of eminent surveyors described the land to lie worth not more than 17s. per acme, or about 4801. per year, at the time )ones held it at 1,720/. Mr. John Mossop. the present tenant, deposed, that at the time of the trausact lts 1814, the land was not worth more than air acre, mud its utmost value at the present moinesst vas 17s. per acre. Mr. Serjeant Pete, for the defence, contended that it appeared in evidence his client was utterly wiknown to the parties said to be benefited in this transaction, and therefore the ins• idiot' of his Learned Friend about fictitious rents and col lusive fraud, must fill to the ground ; their own evidence having proved his entire innocence of that part of the charge. With respect to the Plaintiff, he believed him to he a highly respectable man, but he had never met with one who had manifested a greater want of prudence. Would it he believed that any man would advance a sum of pearly 15,000/. upon only 562 acres of fen-laud, and on which he knew there was a previous encumbrance by mortgage of between 4 and 5,0001.? The Plain tiff's own Solicitor it was who introduced the De fendant to him. and there was a time when the Plaintiff thought that Solicitor liable to a process for his share in the business. The threatened pro ceeding, however, fell to the ground, probably from a conviction that the Solicitor had no share whatever in the valuation. After a very able address to the Jury, the Learned Serjeant proceeded to call the following witnesses :-- /George Mill stated, that he had occupied the farm in question from 1810 to 1813, at the animal resit of 1,3001.
