COURT OF CHANCERY, LINCOLN't INH, his. $2. CAUSE PETITIONS. RI ►ARTE SISSON. Mr. ALEXANDER stated, that this was the Peti tion of the Assignees of Richard Paley, a bankrupt, praying that they might be allowed to claim (noun Kills of Exchange, against the estate of William Tomlinson, a bankrupt, and receive a dividend thereon ; and also, that the Bankrupt Tomlinsoifs certificate might be stayed, until such claim was allowed, and a dividend made. the Petition set forth, that in the month of May, 1798, one Simeon Malley opened a banking account with Paley, and a variety of money transactions took place between them. In 1800, Malley entered into partnership with Mr. William Walker and another, under the firm of Walker, Malley, and Co. and having occasion for sums of money from time to time, they applied to Tomlinson, who was a rela- • tine of Walker's, to introduce them to Messrs. Pays, Richardson, and Co. bankers at Malton. After this time there were several money transaaions between ; these parties, and Tomlinson became an *ding party ; he drew, accepted, and exchanged bills, a , ld, in the end, Walker, Malley, and Co. became it:- debted to Paley in the sum of 70001. In the year ! 1802, the house of Walker, Malley, and Co. made an offer to Paley for an exchange of paper, but the latter steamed, unless he should have some security for the use of his name ; and it was agreed that Tomlinson should be the person to give security. Paley, in consequence thereof, furnished eight bills, which were duly honoured and paid according as they became die at the same time, six bills were drawn and endorsed as at Hoil, payable to Wiliiarn Walker, amounting, in the whole, to 20001. ; those were indorsed by •romlinson, and delivered to Pa ley. Four other bills were also drawn for 20001. more, all of which were exchanged for the bills of Paley, which were duly honoured. In this way Tomlinson became the indorser of the bills, the last four of which, at the request, and by the diredion of Messrs. Walker and Malley, and in the presence of Tomlinson, were indorsed by one John Simpson, in the name of William Wawn, of wisich transaftion Mr. William Wawn was afterwards informed, and assented thereto.— All the bills were negotiated in February, 1902 On the 2 Ws of the same month, Tomlinson wrote to Paler, relative to those bills, which, he sad, would be ret :rned upon him. Mr. ALEX•NDLA stated this to chew that Tomlinson was well awar. that the hills would not be honoured; and he also understood the question a-ose upon the nonce given to Totnlinson, who, by this letter, he contended, was ' petfealy aware they would not be paid. After this, ,• Paley went to Malt n, where he had an interview pith Tomlinson, who told him that none of the bills indorsed and drawn by him would be paid: they proceeded together to 11 , 1.1 for the purpose of ar ranging matters with West :er, Malley, and Co. and in the course of the jo it telt I c in vertation took pare, when Turnlins •n said i• p:o's &Ste that Walker and Co would not 1 mg stand, and in that event he must follow th.-ir ruin ; upon which Paley urged him to get security for the bills. Oa their arrival at Hull, they found that Simeon Malley was gone to London, and the ii7M was in a very deranged state. The bills became due, all of them were pre sented for payment and refused . • in consequence of which Paley had to take them all up, and kept them until he became bankrupt. The l'etitnerts there fore called upon the assignees of Tomlinson, who afterwards became bankrupt, and the only sum re ceived by Paley and his assignees was 12671. The Petition then stated, that the certificate of Tomlinson was in the cow se of being allo.ved, and the Cnmmissio revs had ref used to admit the cl The Learned Counsel therefore contended, in the tire place, that as Wawn had given his assent to his name being signed to the bills as an indotser, ' that could he no objedion. In the second, as to du.e notice t.f the non-payment of the hills not being given—from the several conversations, and the corre spondence which appeared to have been carried on, previous to their becoming due, in all of which, tomlinsott had repeatedly undertaken to pay or se cure, he relied upon it as evidence of notice, and of h:s being fully aware of the bills being dishonoured and unpaid. He therefore, under all these circum- • stances, trusted, his Lordship would grant the prayer of the petition, by allowing the petitioners to go before the Commissioners, and make their claim Ag.litl , t the estate of lomlins •n, and, in the mean tan e that his certificate might be stayed. Loco CHANCELLOR..-" This does not appear to have been a fictitious transaction by any means, but an abso'ute f .rgery." Mr. Itostitav, on the part of the Assignees of Tomlinson, stated, that he had several affidavits in answer, which were sworn by Tomlinson, Walker, Wawn, and others, and denied mcst of the material fads in the case His Lordship asked whether Simpson had stated in his affidavit any antecedent authority from Walker or Wawn to sign the bills; and, being answered in the negative, Mx. Mammas , continued—Tomlinaon being related to some of these Bankrupts, had lent his name AS a collateral security for some of the hills in question. He contended, in the first place, that the indorsement of Wawn was not only irre gular, but feloniously put upon the bills, and in a Court of Law those bills were not recoverable. To.ti linson, in his affidavit, stated, that when they proposed to indorse the bills, Mr. Paley said, that his clerk, .lohn Simpson, could write three or four different hands, and he would call him in to endorse Wawa's name upon the bills, in order to give them greater so lidity i to which Tomlinson replied, that it was rather strange to write a man's name upon a bill, who was not himself present, and he thought it looked some thing like forgery: however, Simpson was called in, and after making the experiment three or four times upon a separate piece of paper, Paley seemed per fedly satisfied with the ingenuity of his clerk, who aecordingly indorsed the bills in the name of Wil liam Wawa. As to the notice of non-payment of the other bills, he contended that Tomlinson had not received any sufficient or regular notice, so as to make him liable. LOAD CrnaIICLIALOR" You had better turn it in your mind, Mr. Alexander, whether you will sub mit to impound those bills in Court." Mr. A LIXANDZI, in reply, said, that was a ques tion which required cosuiderariou : be submitted to • • • 7' ' . • his Lordship, that Tomlinson .having declared tilitt he knew the Bills woulatuot,be paid, was a 'officio* notice; and the least submission in that respell was in law a sufficient waver of notice ; he als^ said, that at the time there were no effeets in the I. ••.ris of the acceptor, and therefore he had a right to call upon Tomlinson as the ir•lorser. Limo CHatiesttoa--. , I have no doubt upon my mind, but that I have done right in urging these parties to come to a conc l us i on u p o n this matter now. The Petition does no more than state cenain trtnsaaions, without chewing how they had taken place, or how represented to the Commissioners ; it states, drily, that they went before dlr." Commission ers, without giving the Commissioners reasons for rejeaing the claim, and concludes, drily, praying that the certificate might he withheld. When eases of this nature come before the Court, it is highly necessary that the faas which have been laid before the Commissioners should be stated in the petition itself, in older that we may know the patties at issue ; and not have them set forth in this clumsy way. The assignees of Paley are not blameable in seeking to make what they can of the bank rupt's estate for the benefit of his creditors Tomlinson was to be taken to have b. en lending his name to such paper as was laid before hint. As to the bills for 2.3p01. payable to Wawn or order, it clearly appears that the parr*, having set about contriving, how they could send them into the world with credit, hit upon the name of Wawn ; and this Mr. Simpson, whose ingenuity was so re markable in that way, was chos!ri to pertea the business ; and Paley aaually appeared exulting in his successful imitation of the hand-writing of `Yawn . The old law of England considered it better to sa crifice the civil interest of individuals to the punish ment of criminal offences. With respelt to the other Bills, which fall under the consideration of no no:ice having been given, the conversation and cor respondence by letter went no farther than that the parties first liable should be sued. Taking all the circumstances into consideration, the ut most 1 can do is, that you may bring your aaion upon those ten bills, undertaking to produce them in Court, and let all the counts, which ill! in genuity of a Special Pleader can collea, be inserted in the declaration. I will then allow you to claim for the amount of such verdia as may be obtained ; but I will not on this account stay the certificate." When retiring, his Lordship said, he did not see how he could well leave the Court without taking those four bills along with him • and Mr. ALIX ANDUt asked permission of his Lo rdship: to mention the matter on the next day for hearing ba krurt pritions, in order to ascertain whether the six and foul bills might not be divided into separate anions. SURREY SESSIONS. PUGILISM. Manias 04ven was indifted for cnaspiring with Burt; Verce, Gibbons, Hears, Baldwin, and others, and raisi• ~ g with them a riot and affray at Putney, on the 29d of January, 1104.—This case was not called on till a very late hour, in consequence of which Mr. Nloav is, on the part of the prosecution, said, he would confine himself merely to the state ment of faels, which would enable the ditty to un derstand the case. lle then told them, that in the battle between Burke and Pierce, fought at Putney in January . last, Gibbons had been the second to Pierce, and was convii/ted at Kingstoa. and sen t►nced to one month's confinement. lie concluded by saying, he was happy to inform them, that Owen, the man at the bar, who, he would prove, was second to Burke, should not be able any longer to evade the punishment to which the offended laws of his country would inst antly consign hi.u, when they had pronounced their verdiet, guilty. Richard Lovet, a constable of Marlborough -street, deposed, that he went on the 23d of January last, acccording to his orders, to Putney: when he ar rived there, he saw upwards of one thousand persons standing in a ring, Burke and Pierce were fighting, Gibbons was aFfing as second to Pierce, and Owen the prisoner was second to Burke. He went into the ring, and told them he was a constable, and de sired them to desist, notwithstanding which the fight went on. He was very sure the prisoner had heard him, as he was not more than a yard or two from him, and he spoke in a loud voice. Wl;ham Jackson, a constable, gave the same evidence as the former witness: he also desired them to desist, and be was convinced the prisoner could not bet have heard him. Mr. Lsws, on the part of the prisoner, endea voured to maintain, that his client should be ac quitted, as Gibbons, who had been second to Pierce, had only he.nt sentenced to one month's imprison ment, though it appeared in evidence that he had been, before the battle begun, warned by the Con stables not to appear there. He hoped, therefore, that as there was no evidence before them, to prove that this man had gone there on purpose to assist in the riot, they would acquit him. The Jury, after a little consideration, found him Gus/ The CHAIRMAN then, after reprobating the of fence, sentenced him to three month, impri•,onment. POLICE. MATTON..OARD[M. Yesterday, a man of the name of troth:, who keeps a house in Cumberland-court, Compton -street, Clerkenwell, a milk-seller, and his brother-in-law, Cornelius Donoghue, were brought up on suspicion of receiving a large quantity of hosiery and silk handkerchiefs, knowing them to be stol:n from Mr. Flint, haberdasher, in Gracechtirch street, by his porter, who has been col:mired for the robbery. The Officers stated, that tliey found six pairs of cot ton stockings, concealed in a bud, and in a small trunk twenty-one silk handkerchiefs, with Mr. Flint's marks upon them, and one of the Prisoners lying on the bed, and that they bad reason to believe them was an intimacy between the Prisoners and Mr. Flint's porter.
