The tinoticrt he had to 'peke was for Ni) injunction to retrain the Deleint lilts from opening a passage Imin it e We-tern Exchange into the rudiugtoh-mcdrte. up would MAW the e;retintaldistrs of the case very I.hortly, as they mord be tre.h to boo Uord.hip ' • rt Lord l:reorge Cavetreli4) had otarle a ho•:,!ose of ineprovealcottr io the urighhouthod of Dor hovels I mud, in peobcular, Lr had erected' a 114118ber Or 111101).. %ill) a Inis-oge the middle. which wag covered over—.-the•or .hops approximate +1 to Burlington House, from w heave it derived its nettle of the Purliiir.,ion--,trade; although there wars only one building, thew two rues of shops, which run due north from Piecedilly into Burlington garderni. The Western Exchange Wdfil to the we-t of the Arcade, and the entrance into it was from the rust side of Band.sireet, and was well knowo to be a place of feshioeable resert.— 'Mr. Weir, as the surveyor unit agent of I.n t George C a veridish, was employed by his Loodsiiip to let the shops, and aceurdingty he sea' a priiitttl circular to several persons for that purpop.. The Plaintiffs had various commailications with Mi. Weir on the subject, and on these occasions it was sidled by him, that, although the shops might he let to • variety of tenants, it was !dill to be eon's. dered as one CorliCtrli, and to be goofed by certain regii !anima. It was also agreed, that there should be but two public c omm.-a—rale in l'iccadillj, tbe other in Burlington-gardens. The rent fur a %Male shop was to be 361. per amintri, and 61. a-yeas inr repairing, lighting, watching, :tee. the Arcade; the double shops to be double rent ; the truants of the single shops to pay a line of 159/. fur a fourteen years lease, and those of a double !hop 250/. The Pleint:ffs agreed to le-come tenants on these term.. It was thought oecessary to have a general meeting of the lessees to settle the regulations. winch ac cordingly took place on the 231 of February, at the Thatched-Haase, St. dames's, when the Few,- tannin were agreed to, and a committee of pis of the teriatits was appointed to carry them into effect. l'he plaintiff, Odell, was alai:man on that occasion. The reason that Lord George Cavendish gave the Plaintiffs preference was, that ill builithi4 the Arcade he had darkened the back of their houses in Bond-street, they briiig occuliiele of houses on the east side of that stre , a, anti his Lordship thought it was but jointer to gibe them the privilege of makieg a Ovine pas sage from their houses to their shoo, for the ac commodation of themselves and their se, vants, but this was a privilege not to be granted to a. , y other lessees. The Defendant, Herrin, wet, the buildtr, and part proprietor of the I‘'estern Exchiroge, and had become a tenant of one of the shops on the western side of the Arced.-, and had made a public passage from the Western Exchange through the shop into the Arcade, and it appeared from the affidavits that lie 11.111 invited the puled c to make use of it to the gnat detriment of the Plain tiffs. If the Defendant had only mud- tier of this passage for his own accommodation and thin of his family, the present application would ii-vet have been made to the Court, hut by this bring 4 public passage, the properly of the other lessees was put in jecparily ; there were four porter, ap pointed, two to attend each door, to see that view but respectable persons entered into the Arcade ; if a third public eetrence was allowed, this precaution became nugetory; there was an end of all reps. lations, there was no use in shutting the two regular doors at eight o'clock iii the evening at one sensors of the year, and at nine during the other stilton. while the third door was open. The Defendant. Heron, says, he shut it at six o'clock ; this might he the case, but he is not obliged to do so. When he (the Solicitor-General) mentioned this case be fore, his Lord-hip suggested a case which had oc curred in the House of Lords, relative to the Cor poration of Edinburgh ; he hid looked into that case, but it did not hear on the present—for here all the tenants agreed to one arraagement, and they all knew that there were to be two entrances to the passage, the whole arrangetireets would be frus,ra tett if the .bird entrance was alloe ed. Tin e is a covenant in the agreenitin, on the part of Lord G. Cavendish, that he ii mild do the iepsios of the two entraticet, but there was nothing btieling on him to repair the third entrance ; there was al-ut an end to the security held out to the lessee , by Lord George Cavendish. It was not a private pe-- sage for the accommodution of the D.:fend:nit, Heron, but for the advantage of all the persona in the Western Exchange : this, then. made it euelt a case, that one tenant could apply to restrain another from doing that which was detrimental to the whole. Oil these grounds, lie submitted that the tujunction ought to be granted. Air. PEPT3 followed mi the same side, and said, it was not disputed by the Defendants, that this was an open Hllll public passage ; so far horn it, they admitted the fact by their affidavits; but they say, it it was shut up, it would be of great injury tb the Western Recharge, and by its being open it was of great eaverarge, and they were kind esiough to say, it was the same to Ins clients ; but they did not think so; for t iottarice, ?I man having a tiou-e with a piece a g round before it, over which he had a pasea4e rue h i mself and f. ly, had recite right so putpuse ; it was py the uric it fur an). o tr.er lene, as to ale paor ige in dispute. , l Ine Lorin CHOCELLowt—" If • man has a shop in the Sl:esters' Exchange, wad another in the Arcade§ W ith 5 beans,' for • passage (coin „„„ e to the other.; would riot a customer be at liberty itt , go from one ,hop to the ot her, througfii t hat pa two enestrginets if so, the i there w eir:4l Lir, instead o to the .tcAle, es marl as th ere wilre perilous who r 1 1
