That the 'whet proceeding,i had . ' necessarily been re sorted to, it having appeared that 'the Lunatic - had been to Visit Mr. Vandetcorn in his oWn carriage, -Without any keeper, on.the Stir in Bush-lane. That the two persons belonging to Dr. Munro, Who on the loth were said to;be in charge - of the Lunatic, had not been one hour in the hods - e; nor had ever seen Mr. Ludlam, when the Officers - had forced into the house ; that Mr. Ludlam lived with a.woman named 'Henderson, who called herself Mrs. Ludlam, and estranged him from his family, and exercised an uncontrolled dominion 'over him, by which his pro perty was much -viagied; 'and that • the Lunatic was at present under the dominion of hefand Van dercom, or one of - them, and Petitioner therefore humbly prayed his Lordship's order to compel them, or'ene of them, to deliver him tip to proper'and saf3 custody ; his attornies and any- physieiani he might - think proper, being at liberty to visit him whenever they thought proper. Mr. PERCIVAL said; that this Petitjr was sup ported by. various affidavits, proving the' violent nature of , *the malady, and the total neglect} of his Lordship's' order. He referred -to his Lord'- ship's memory for a cortoboration of the cir cumstances of luamanity and tender consideration . under which that had been made, and sub- Mined sthat the custody thereby directed had not been resorted to. The:learned. Counsel also' read. a letter from Mr. Young, in apology for not laving given any answer to the various 'inquiries that had been made, on the ground that he had been at the time ill and confined ti) his bed, as well as that he did not think it right to giveany-answer without consulting Mr. Vandercom, as also a letter from Mr. Young to. Mr. -Vandercom, resigning the duty he' had Undertaken: under all these circumstances he horribly moved . the Cothrt for an order to compel Mr. t Vandertom, Vic. to live up the person of William Laillartf t`ii• the legal custody of the Petitioner, his CoMmittee. • ' - The Loin CHANCELLOR, who had previously de dared his deterMination not to suffer the authority of'fliat! Court to be trifled with; and to have public interrogatories ethibited, as well as thi affidavits read Court,oryserved, that what had taken place in- tins 'case Might deter persons who might be it his situation front departing hereafter from what ap peared to be. the usual : course. His Lordship 'then thought it right -to aaluaint the Learned Counsel with What had passed antecedently to the statement in - his' Petition. It had appeared to him, that - it would he better to have the unfortunate person con titled in his. Own house, where he might have his 'malady soothed mild treatment, rather than to aggravate the sufferings of such a complaint, by Caving him .given his Committee without. any 'such restriction. The order he 'had made under this impression; and particularly because the unfortunate person having ,been formerly con-. fitted in a receptacle for lunatics, seemed to have as horror at the idea of being again confined there. He had, bowevei-, subsequently been informed by-a let ter from 'Dr. Reynolds to Mr. Carr, Secretary for Lunaiit's, dated sth of January, Bedlofd-square, that' this. person-had .been- at large, and gone-to his house at two' o'clock in the morning, and there deported himself in a manner that proved him to' be under the influence of a 'racist dangerous derange - met-A. ...His Lordship had in consequence issued an order, that he. should be carried back to his house, and there cotninitted -to the strictest custody, -, ,tikttil further order. He could not suffer his Majtsty't Subjeas `to be exposed to hazard, by allowing such a person to' be- at large: There was. Much to be condeMned somewhere or other. ' The SoLICITOR GENERAL observed : that Mr. Van. dercom had'not known anything .of this circum= stance, an&affirtned, iii answer to a question from the LORD CH ANCELLoR, that he had an affidavit to that fait frdh) Vander6orn.

Mr. "CoOKE followed on the same 'side with .Mr. PEILCIVAL. He contended • that Mr. James Ludlam, .the Committee, was anxious to discharge - his duty to his brother and" to the publiC, and had clearll"imahilested such. desire at - the .meeting that had taken plice- at his.

The SoLiciToa-GnkinAL adMitted; that it was • • • extremely dpsirable td i have a cfdegtion of this descrip tion deetdettWithas'' little delat'As vossible.' The manner, lid Aver,. in which it had been brought for ward, had'been attende&With disadvantages to both sides. Client; Mr:Vandercotn; had provided all the affidavits 'that 'on so l Short a notice he could ;- and one of. the'diSadvahtageS that occurred on 'the other. side Was, that hiS Learned Friends - had not 'an-op-' .portOrrityof looking into these,affidaVits, which di redly denied every staternant wade by them its fads, upon,which they,hadsall' the -conduct of Mr.' Van.: derconi w'a's A just objed of animadversion; 'All: ,parties had but one obje( that the' unhappy Person :should be allowed as much comfort and. libetty as would be consistent with the pUblie safe: : ty. When the question was formerly before-his Lordship, it had been attended with 'considerable difficulty. On one hand the person had been repre senied as in a dano . erous Malady; On the Other; as only deranged on extraordinary ocLasidns, after hav taken much wine. The Stati ite whiebgave him a right to traverse the applieation'for a torntnissitin, certainly gave him the privilege Of hav'ing - ' access to his friends till the traverse should be denied. He bad been consequently given into the care - of Me. Young; who had been recommended - for that pur pose, and ; . 1-nply i instruated as to thCdutyhe was to perform. He was not to be given Up' to his Committee unless in case of any violence.--= So far froryi having strewn any such violence, he had been perfedly tranquil. The occurrence at Dr. Reynolds's had been preVious to his Lordship's' last order, and he. had the affidavits of the alters'at the hotel where Mr. Ludlani then, waS,''and that night slept, that he had, not been out of the house all night. Dr. Reynolds had not Seen the person who called at his hOuse, and if was only from 'the description given of him by his servants that he concluded it to have been Mr. Ludlam. Mr.' Ludlam had been constantly tranquil, had never access to fire-arms, and never been unrestrained since the period of his Lordship's. order.. The abandonment by Mr. Young of what he ,had undertaken to do, was not such a case as' required Mr. Ludlam to be given upto the custody ()tithe ComMittee. A man from Mr. Miles's had been in attendance upOn him since the Bth, and slept in a dieSsing-room neat to his room. Mr. Ludlam be trayed no reludance to be visited by Dr. Willis, in company with . Dr. Reynolds, and the reasons why Mr. Vandercom refused to introduce the two men recominended; were, that they belong F d to Mr.War bUrton,- at whiiie house Mr. Ludlam had, been for merly confined. Dr. Munro's men had both seen and attended Mr. Ludlam, they had searched hiM for fire-arms, and taken from his person, without any objection on his part, a stehall pocket 7 knife, the only instrument he had with which he could do any this -. chief. It Was bis friend Mr. Miles's man that bad sprung the rattle from the balcony when he . . found the officers attempting to break into the house atter_ ten o'clock at night. This friend followed Mr., Ludlam the nex day,' when the officers had b rOken f.into the house, up stairs, out of the' trap:door, and along the leads, till Mr. Ludlam escaped frOm bjm by leaping down from a height ; 'which his friend 'would not attempt;from an apprehension of his life. Since that he had never been heard of. The LORD CHANCELLOR asked if the petition had been served on Mrs. Henderson ) and was informed it bad been left at - her house; he then naked whether Mrs. Henderson did not know where he was ? and being answered by Mr. Vandercom that he did not know, as he had not seen her since the 9th, observed, - that he .would recommend to her to take good care of her condud.. His Lordship then stated, that their objett would be to get possession again of the unfor tunate person, and made ..an order. that he should be found without delay, and given over t 9 the legal custody of his Committee, meaning, however, therebynot that he should be confined to a comnoion madhouse, but under the. care of proper persons in his own house, where his disease might be soothed with every possible alleviation, consistent with his own safety and that of the public. " For," added . his Lordship, " I am not to be prevented from ex tending every mitigatiouthat humanity can dictate to the case 'of a madman, because a man, that is not mad, thinks proper to ad as if be were, and in this light' I 'View the conduft of Mr. Young." .The business terminated in a recommendation trom the Court to Mr. Vandercom, to me every effort to recover the person' of Mr. Ludlam. • CIL - D, . . s , 7ho7rlpson, a - notorious parloatet vas in diiiedlor stealing privately a witch, the property of J.
