Ti' this rule there were but few eicerlitiunt, and till the entise day was con sumed ;shearing them ; nor was the Court able, re it in ape ' of live hours, to get through the eutire * of the ere.' cum* stated. e tiillowing inottaa, which stood over from a former day, was the only one at ail worth reporting : PIAtstAVANT'S FEES. The ATTIIRAI6II-6LNERAL, on the part of the Hoti. mei Rev. Fran.:os Yawl Stratford, now a pr . ,- softer, moved the Court, that Mr. Stratfuld should he discharged is ithout paving the day fees claimed by the Pursuit ant, and winch ita , amounted to se t era! 'implied pounds. It appeared. that Mr. AT- TattNi.Y-(.16,4i:!;11.'S Client was stone tulle snore confined in the Four Courts Marsh.thora of the city of Dublin, and, whilst a prisoner there, having been guilty of some coutempt of the Court of Chancery, no attat hintla was issued against him, and executed by the Porsuivaut, by lorlgitei it with the Marshal. The original cause of Mr. Stratford's confinement has since been removed, and he also purged his eoutempt, or satisfied the Court on that head ; it thew poly remained for him to pay the Pursuivaut's fees so as to prepare his liberation. This hr refused to do, and in June last applied to his Honour the Master of the Rods to be dia. eharged without !toying fees. His Honour, after heariug the to, lonians on both sides, refused to interfere. the couscquence of which writ an appli cation to the Chalice:lur. IVheto the case was last before his Lordship, a variety of circurnstaioces, to which Counsel were not then instructed, prttectited the Chancellor from giviog his opinion on the sub ject; but his Lordship. solicitous for the liberty of the subject, desired that Mr. Stratford should not he kept in comitionent, merely for Pursuivant's fees, and it. was ioveed that Mr. Stratford might he at large, provided he undertook to abide by otetcr tiler the Court should hereafter make., This, however, Mr. Stratford vfosed to profit by, and has acttotoify remained in ciostotly now nearly; six months. sooner thou loave his liberty un the terms proposed. The principal point insisted on is, that Mr. Stun, - ford b-iog its custody of the Marshal whets the at— taeliiiietit was Icelzed, he ought out to pay the fees of the Marshal end the fees of the PUTSOIVIIIit alsrs.• the latter was a remuneration to the Officer for his trouble in holding the Prisoner, and as in this case lie had no trouble, inasonuch as the prisoteer. wa, kept by the 'Marshal for auritliet c a use. there fore he w.. out etobtleol to nosy refutmeratuni. :Duch was N2t , i to this point ; but At length, it appeiring likely that the grthter portion of the clay would be consumed its the investigation, the Lotto Cuaet - nt.t.na lie could not, on the last day but sue of li.. .itGag. postpone the cases of •ofter suitors, for the purpose of having thie point' betted to the mtisfactioe of Mr. Stratford. It was trite, he sail, that ti.at Coentleinan was to cossody; but es it was his own & e at. cud -as the might at any time procure his enlargement. ou his own undertaking to abide by the unit: of the Court hereafter to toe made, his Lualditp did not think .. -re voile] ite any hardship complained of hr his postponing the business, aud therefore ordered it to s.atio over until the ttrit day Of next month.
