CATITOLIC LAW AND GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, 8, NEW COVENTRY-STREET, LEICESTER-SQUARE, LONDON. The FOURTH ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of the Proprie tors of this Company took place on the 25th instant, at the Head Office, at One o'clock precisely. The following is extracted from the report, which is too lengthy for publication : During the past year no claims have arisen from deaths in England. and but two in Ireland—one for .500/. and the other for 2001.—making together 7001., which have been paid. This is far below the expected mortality, and is especially favourable, when it is remembered how severely the life offices generally suffered from the epidemic of last year. The number of lives assured between the Ist of June, 1849, and the 31st of May, 1850, was more than double the number issued in the twelve months preceding, Proposals were made for 134 Policies, amounting to 52,9631.25. 6d.: of these 121, comrrising 106 lives, were accepted for 45,125/. fis. sixteen Policies lapsed, representing 6,0481., upon which 3201. 3'. was received by the Company in the shape of premiums Since the commencement of the Company to the Ist of Juno last, assurances were effected to the extent of 110,972/. 12s. 6d., pro ducing in annual premiums 3,7321. I Is. 6d. Of these 54 lapsed, amounting to 23,9301. 16s. 641., of which the annual premiums were 741/. Is., leaving the yearly income on the Ist of June last equal to 2,991/. 15s. I Id. Since last meeting loans were applied for to the extent of 17,7001., but 1,1831. I Is. 10d. only was advanced. The Directors were also highly gratified to report that within the last four months they had considerably extended their business on the Continent, having appointed, as Head Agent in France, Monsieur ' tie I'Etang, a gentleman of high standing iu Paris, distinguished for his integrity and ability in financial and in all assurance matters, who, under the sanction and patronage of the Archbishop of Paris, the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons, and Monseigneur Parisis, Eveque de Langres, has already within the last three months effected a con siderable amount of business, not only in Life Assurances, but in An nuities both Immediate and Deferred. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. • Ib'asphemod in a most frightful manner—in such a man uer that no one could doubt that he was in a state of complete mental aberration. There could be no better proof of this than the change in his conduct respecting his granddaughter, Marianne. I n 1815 b e h a d ta k en grt ne precautions for her proper education; but subse quently, so lost was ho to all proper feeling, that he taught her to curse and swear, and encouraged her in the most incredible obscenity,' and in the use of language to which none but the most depraved could Estee. So long as he had women servants they remon strated against this' course of education for the child. tut he only laughed - and enjoyed it, saying, " She was a chip of the old block." A „crowd having begun to stare at them one day at Buxton, she said she would give them a salute, and turned up her clothes, and, looking back to the multitude, slapped her hand on a portion of her body that delicate women were no: in the habit of ex posing. Once she filled the bellow of a board for playing trap-1).11 with het water, and spurted up between the legs of a servant girl and severely scalded her, and the old man laughed heartily, and said, " Well done, yon young —." Such were the tricks she played, and the language she used was such that women were not al lowed in court while her expressions were detailed- They created many a laugh in court; but still many of them were of a most shocking kind, and such as the most precocious depravity could not, without education for the purpose conceive. He became so violent to hitt ser vants that none could stop with him. Once, when one of them in his awkwardness let a salt-cellar fail near him, he flung a carving -knife at hi m, an d i t stria& the the door behind the man. The witness who detailed this admitted that the salt-cellar fell near his gouty toe, and that the man was at the other side of the door when the knife struck it. One brought a bottle of port jastead of Madeira once, and. he flung it at his bead. He used to compel one man to do his work by presenting a blunderbuss at hins-whopever aaythiug was done that did not please him. lin offered to fight his farm bailiff if he would not go up to his neck in a pool of water; and because he did not he (Weltarced him and then caused him to be summoned for deserting his ser vice and imprisoned for twenty-eight days. As a ge nearl rule, when they in anyway displeased him, he used to fling bottles, tides that were n e a rest to hi m . E ven when they did glasses, croekeryware, knives, or any ar not offend him be often wantonly attacked them. One day he came into the kitchen. found a servant toasting bread, and bending down with her back to him, and he stole up to her, and stuck a fork with all his strength into her posteriors, and then ran out, and she did not recover for a month. When he drove out in his car riage he took his gun with him, and once threatened t 3 shoot the man who was driving for taking the wrong road, and the man jumped off and ran away from him. One servant, to whom he was violent and threatening, once or twice locked him up for an hour or two till he promised to be better, and then let him out, and they then had some drink. Another one took up a saucepan of boiling water and threatened to throw it on him, and he fled from the kitchen and sent down a glass of wine to make friends. He had 40 servants in a few months, as none would stop with him for more than a few days. At length no woman ser vant would remain at all, nor would he keep any, or allow them to cook his food, assigning the filthiest rea sons for it, and then he was obliged to employ his farm servants to do all the domestic duties, clean the house, milk the cows, prepare his breakfast and dinner, make his bed and that of the child, and even to undress and put her to bed at night, and dress her again in the morning. He took it in his head that meat was never se good as when it was full of maggots, and he used to keep it till it got into that state, and even once bought 4 cwt. of putrid meat, though he had only in his family one servant, besides himself and granddaughter. He once broke off a sale of four sheep to a butcher on sc. count of a difference as to one quarter of a pound. He drank himself, and was liberal of drink to others, and not only to men, but to animals. And once, when a butcher came to kill a pig, after making the butcher drink as much as he could, be mixed the remainder of a bottle of gin in the wash for the pig, and made the pig drunk before it was killed. His pockets were generally full of notes and gold; and be once gave a servant a pocketful of notes to bet at a cock fight, and the next day charged him with robbing him. One sign of madness was a great concentration of iatel= ligence on some points; and so no man was more shrewd in his dealings with tradesmen, and nothing pleased him more than defrauding any one of money. If his labourers allowed him to fall into arrears of wages, they found It difficult to get them. A tradesman went one day to ask for a debt, and he threatened to let a bulldog loose at him till the man ran away. He bought ducks of a woman, and gave her a bad halforown; and, when she came back to I complain, he so cursed, and swore, and threatened, that she fled in terror from hies. He fancied that a connexion of his, a Mr. Burrows, who lived in Derby, and was a most inoffensive gentleman, bad entered into a plot to annoy him; and wrote a letter stating this to . his sister, Mr,. James, on the 25th of May, 1818. as his reason fir leaving Derby for ever. He fancied be had communica tions with the devil, and used sometimes to order hi, bedroom door to be kept shut, in order to keep the devil t o h u a t t ; and thed evil might be at liberty to go our. sometimes kh. his windows to be left open, in order used to talk incessantly of the devil, saying that the devil was waiting fur him, and that be knew he should go to bell, but would not wait long there. In 1817 he went to the Derby races it. his carriage, a man driving it who had a whisp of straw around his hat, himielf and his grandchild covered with rags, and his footman in a similar manner. Everybody; noticed him, and there was a cry of " Mad Bainbrigge. He wished to run a favourite chestnut mare, which bad been just taken off grass and had not been trained. Ile had no jockey for it, and he engaged a man from the crowd, who rode in his shirt. The man asked for orders; the answer was, " Oh, Lever mind;" but the horse could not run a yard, and of course lost, and when the man asked for payment, ho refused to pay him, as he had not ridden according to his orders, which orders were, " Get first—keep first." Shouts of laughter from the crowd followed, in the midst of which he got into his carriage and made off. The witness who came to speak to this fact said the horse was well trained, and came in third out of five that ran. He had a stallion which used to break out of a paddock in which it was kept, and get to mares when people did not want him to do so; he therefore put him into a stable with a large loose box. The horse got lame, and so indignant was he, that he' sat in judgment on him, sentenced him to seve n years' transportation, and then committed it to imprisonment and solitary confinement. The horse w l e t y h a , e s and ona an m s t andwhoese almost servants was,onl y starved „ a s w t told o e m l t l u l was accordingly kept iu partial darkness, with water as would keep life in him, and at the end of four c e h h death e no 'straw to lie dungal nw l asn e t — ahuisl k b e tw e llo p tilhed h ines i a m htdee s : o; he has not served out his time.' 3. In master hsa t n s yd i ha u n h a i dd e t May, 1818, he left Derby to reside at his house at Woodseat. This, too, was overrun with vermin, large and small, and when a Servant complained that the rats were £0 numerous that the place was like a rabbit warren, he said he would by' no means have them killed; they were his game, and he preferred them to hares and rabbits. The house was in a most forlorn condition; the windows were broken, and• the pigeons nestled on the shelves of the library, which contained some most valuable books, and on being remonstrated with about it, he said it was a good place for the pigeons The kitchen .garden was so neglected that it was impot sible to get at the fruit without cutting olio's way through a tangled maze of weeds. He used to drink excessively; but liquor made him not drunk, but mad and furious. He used to have a bottle of brandy with' a glass laid every night by his bedside. So things con tinued till the Saturday before his death,rJune 13, 1816. On that day he went to Draycott, and 'drank a great deal—at least a quart of brandy—saying, it would be good fOr his' gout. He got home to Woodseat on Sunday night. On the Monday he got up, but ahoutmidday was put to bed in his clothes, and in those clothes he lingered from Monday till the Saturday, when he died. On the Monday there was but one servant in the house—a man named Roe. He sent for a Dr. Hawthorn, of Uttoxeter, who was a friend of the Arnelds. They were of course anxious to know in what state he was, and if possible to sift ct a reconciliation; but so great was his hatred of them, that if he knew any of them were about his house it would drive him wild; and, therefore, though Arnold came to the house, he never once went into his room. Arnold secured an interview with Hawthorn. Mr. Blair was sent for, and on Wednesday, the 17th of June, he prepared a codicil, altering altogether the pro visionssubstituted for his nephew, Mr- . P. of the will of 1811 This document Bain brigge, the proper representative of the B a i n _ a n apothecary, who brigge family, oneof his daughter , Mrs. Arnold, and got rid of the annuity to Mrs. James.

That will was the same provisions as the to the codicil. It contained associates A Id having nothing to ltincreased ; his lands .

It contained the same provi sions as to Mrs. Blair and the eduoation of Marianne. It also contained a provision that during the minority of his granddaughter Mr. Blair should have his choice of any of his three mansions and the sole and exclusive right of ..porting, shooting, and fishing over all his estates. There were three trustees,' Hawthorn, Wood, and Blair; Blair, being a solicitor, knew- that be would have virtually the exclusive management of the pro perty, and knew further that if, on the death of the granddaughter, the will of 1815 camp into opera ion, the Bsinbridges could at once manage their own affAirs, whereas in the event of Mrs. Arnold's children. coming into possession he would have the whole ma nagement of the property during a long succes sion of minorities. The new will, therefore, was very advantageous to him, and consequently the great object was to get rid of Mr. Thomas P. Bainbrigge and Mrs. James, and to substitute the Arnolds. The moment the breath was out of his body his coffers were ransacked by the three trustees, in a manner which produced a strong impression on the son of Dr. Fox, who was then a youeg man, and would be called before the Court. Dr. Fox unfortunately was dead. and had not been examined un der a commission, Mr.,Blair. taking care that the commis sioners should not otiree to examine him till it was too late to do so, Another Suspicions circumstance connected with this will was that the parties who concocted it, though . they professed to be religious men, did not send fir clergyman to console the dying man, and smooth his path from earth to heave*, though they knew he had lived a life of sensual enjoynfent, and had, for years neg lected bis religious duties. Neither had they sent for any of his relatives, though they all lived in the neigh bourhood.

DOE, DEM. BAINBRIDGE V. BAI.NBRICGE. The Solicitor-General (Mr. Cockburn), Mr. Alexan der, Q C., and Mr. Gray appeared fir the plaintiff; Mr. Keating, Q.C., Mr. Whitmore, and Mr. Pigot appeared for the defendant. This case which occupied the attention of the Court from Thursday morning at 9 till half-past 11 at night, aad from 8 on Friday to half-past eleven at night, and again from 8 on Saturday morning until half-past 11 at night, and from 9 yesterday morning till 11 at night, was brought to a close at 2 o'clock to-day. It was an action of ejectment to try the validity of a will made in 1818, the plaintiff, the heir at law, seeking to upset it on two grounds—insanity and fraud. The case, as opened by the Solicitor-General, was to this effect:— The testator, Thomas B.inbrigge, was the representa tive of a very ancient family in Derbyshire, Warwick shire, and Staffordshire, and inherited considerable estates in those counties, to which in the course of his life ho made considerable additions. In early life he was a man of very refined and polished manners, and moved in the best society both in Lon don and in the country: He became attached to a young lady. Some difficulty arose as to a marriage settle ment. His father would not consent to his marriage, and she died. This event soured his temper, and he be came somewhat less fond of society than he had been, and after kis father's death retired to a seat on the bor ders of Sherwood Forest. This was about the year 1789. He had a servant there who was called Eliza beth Parker or Mrs. Betsey—a person of some attrac tions. She became pregnant. He believed himself the father of her child, a (laughter, who was born in Sep tember, 1790, and was named Betsey Bainbrigge. Mrs. Betsey did not confine her favours to her master,..ant, became pregnant a second time by another man. Mr. Bainbrigge thereupon turned her off, with some allow ance„ but kept the daughter Betsey, paid the greatest attention to her education, sent her to the best board ing schools, and when her education was completed brought her to his seat at Woodseat, and introduced her as his acknowledged daughter into society, where she was very well received. In 1803, when she was thirteen, and when he was most attached to her, he made his will, leaving her his estates for life, with remainder to her issue in tail; and in After various resolutions, approving of the Report, and returning thanks to the Right Reverend Chairman, Bishop Morris, the Vice- Chairman, Actuary, Secretary, and Medical Officers of the establish ment, the meeting separated, highly gratified at its present results and future prospects. Philip within eight miles of him. No notice of his illness was sent to them, and when his two nephews, General and Colonel Bainbrigge, called on the Tuesday to see him they were not admitted to see him; and his brother John, on calling on the Saturday, was refused admission also. and was obliged to force his way into the room, and found him dying. Immediately after his death Mr. Blair wrote to Mrs. James and Mr. Peter Bainbrigge, in forming them of that event, and of the disposal of the property away from the family, and not alluding to the former wills. After the funeral the family asked to gee _ _ _ _ default of such issue, to his own nephews, and requiring that her husband should assume the name of Bainbrigge. Before, however, she was 17, she was got with child by his coachman. This deeply annoyed him; and he, cone quently, on the 15th of October, 1808, made another will, by which he left his estates to three trustees to sell, and out of the proceeds to pay her an annuity of 2001. a year, and his sister, Mrs. James, one of 100/. a year, and to divide the surplus into three equal portions be tween the children of his brother Joseph, of his brother Colonel' Philip Bainbrigge, and of his sister Mrs. James. On the 3d of February, 1809, the child by the coach man was born, and was named Marianne. Though ex asperated by bis daughter's conduct, he allowed her and h te er th c e hi e l h d il t d o . re ß m n a t in t i h n e the dan h g ou h s te e r , a e n if d en e d ve e n d to h ok fa ncy to a again. There was a farmer in the neighbourhood, named Ar nold, who bad given him offence by some dispute re specting game. This man's son made up to the daugh ter. When he heard of it he sent her out of the way, and positively prohibited any communication between them; but she eluded his vigilance, proved pregnant, eloped with, and married Arnold. This made him furioue. He said he would have forgiven her if she had married the coachman, but never would forgive her for marrying Arnold, and vowed he would never speak to her, and that no child of hers by Arnold should ever in-1 herit a penny of his money. Under these feelings he made another will on the 4th of August, 1812, whereby he conveyed his estates to two trustees, of whom Mr. Blair, an attorney, of Uttoxeter, who had framed the former will, and being one of the trustees under it, was one, in trust, to secure to his granddaughter, instead of his daughter, to whom he left nothing, an estate for life, with remainder to her issue in tail, and in default of such issue, for sale and division amongst his nephews and nieces. Of the daughter he never took the slightest notice, and her name was not allowed to be mentioned by the servants. Ia 1815, he came to live in Green lane, Derby. Being still fond of racing and horses, he went in August to the Derby races, and was there thrown from his horse, and so severely injured in the head, that he was supposed to be dying. He was immediately bled, and drastic medicines were given to reduce the inflammation. His daughter then made several attempts to see him; but he would not see her, saying he knew her object was to get his money; and that if she wanted his forgiveness she had it, but if she wanted his money she should not have a penny of it. When he was reco vering from these injuries he sent: for Mr. Blair, who was at that time one of the masteetninent and respectable solicitors in Staffordshire, to make alterations in his will. that gentleman came at once, and lest anything should happen before a formal will could be drawn up, he at once prepared a codicil, on the 11th of August, 1815, to the will of 1812. By that will he had left his estates, in default of issue to his granddaughter, to his nephews and nieces generally; but by this codicil he left them to Thomas Parker Ilaixibrigge, the eldest son of his second brother, in fee simple for ever. Mr. Blair caused a more formal will to be executed on the 15th of August. By that will, after directing . the payment of au annuity of 4001. a year to his sister, Mrs. James, and of 50/. to Mrs. Arnold for her life, and making provision for the education of his granddaughter, he left to her his estates for life, with remainder in tail to her issue, and in default of such issue to Thomas P. Beinbrigge, the lessor of the plaintiff, for ever. There was a direction in it, as in the will of 1803, that her husband should assume the name of Bainbrigge, and another as to the legacy to be paid to Mrs. Arnold. She was not to reside in Staffordshire or Derbyshire, and not to interfere in any way with the care and custody of her child, who was entrusted entirely to Mrs. Blair, that lady herself being left an annuity of 1001. a year for life in consideration of her attention to the child. More over, the annuity to Mrs. Arnold was not to come into effect until the existing lease to the Arnolds should ex pire, and neither Arnold nor his wife, nor his father, nor an uncle of his named Wood, was to hold any lands but those they then held. Such was the offence given by that family, and so deeply did it rankle in his breast. The provision for the child's education was ample, and showed what consideration be then bestowed upon it. Allowing, besides the annuity to Mrs. Blair for her ge neral superintendence, 200/. a year to be applied to her education till she was 15/. and :300/. till she was 21. This was the will of 1815, on which the lessor of the plaintiff took his stand, and claimed the estates. Marianne was now dead, and the last of her children died in 1845; and the issue in that line being extinct, the question now arose who was entitled to them. Mr. T. I'. Bainbrigge said that in default of the issue of Marianne the estates came to hilt. That the testator was sane in 1815 would be proved beyond question. At that time he mixed in society, kept his house in order, his servants in livery; was in the habit of going out to dinner; was distin guished by activity and intelligence as a magistrate, his manners were polished, his language refined, and he was in every respect a highly-educated gentleman. He bad always a slight tendency to eccentricity and irritability, which greatly increased after the ac cident at Derby races, and was aggravated much by habits of living high, and drinking a great deal of liquor. Wine and spirits never made him drunk, but excited his irritability. At the close of 1815 he removed from Green-lane, Derby, to another street called Osmanston.street. From that time a material change was observed in his habits, from which it was clear that his mind was utterly gone. His dress. was so neglected that be became a marked character. His clothes were filthy and unclean, old and covered with lice, and such as a beggar would not pick off a scarecrow. He never washed himself, and the stench from him was intolerable; bis stockings were in holes; his coat out at the elbows; his trousers broken. He sometimes had a garter cn one leg and none on the other; his hat was such as the boys put on Guy Fewkes, and altogether his appearance was such that the boys used to follow him through the streets of Derby, crying out " Mad Bainbrigge." His house was in keeping w ith hie person —dirty, filthy, filled with vermin of all kinds, and alto gether of a most wretched and revolting description. When he rode out in his carriage it was unwashed and =leaned and covered with the dirt of the fowls which roosted in it. His horses were not groomed, and he took any of his farm labourers, without any change of dress, to drive it. He once drove into Derby with a man who had been just driving a dung cart, and in the very dress in which he had driven it. He used to crouch so near the fire that his coat tails were burned off. He used to go to buy his own fish and meat, and was once met in the streets of fish He e ver w e a d s weietheebloseoedahahnrgininggingoutheomf e hi m s e D n e a r t by p slaughtered ox on the top of his carriage. Another time he brought home a calf's head and pluck on the oc wi k t e h ts. bow of his saddle. He wore a flannel waistcoat from March to July without once washing it, and when re monstrated with on the subject, be said washing would spoil flannel. Ho once made bis labourers sit out in the midst of a storm of hail and rain to make hay, and when a coach passed by, and the passengers shouted out "Are ye mad?" the men answered, " It is not we that are mad, but our master." He once suddenly gave directions to dispossess all his tenants in the streets of Derby, though they did not owe him a penny of rent, and actually ejected every one of them without any reason whatever but some wild fancy of his own. He went to the funeral of a friend, a Mr. Richard Rid sesome f re n ds m dlesden, and some acc id ent occurr i n g which made his horse restive, h e swore a t hi s co achman, and wished him " in h e ll w i t h ' o ld Di c k," the friend whom ho w a s h h had t e him m a din g n o e i r ng ence to , the servant b Wh r e o h ne cold plate. He ordered him to keep it at the fire till he called for it, and when he did, and the brought it, it burned his (Mr. Bainbrigg ' fingers; man and thereupon he seized a roast goose that 88) was mncl e the table by the legs, and flung it after the man, cursed and swore at him, and kicked him out of the room. In 1817 a lady went up with his granddaughter Marianne( into his bedroom. an and there saw a bottl e o f b ran d y a bottle of gin, and the poker and tongs on a chai r near his bed • and he told her on several occasions that he kept them teat him against the devil. He use d to mu r ir y there to pro to himself, " I must go to the de v il, b ut I a uot frequent ly to yet. All religiQue feeling departed , and he owed a nd the will. Mr. Blair at first said he had it not with him but would send to Uttoxeter for it. It was soon forth coming, and they sat down to read it, the members of the family sitting round in a circle, and Mr. Blair sit ting in the middle of the room with the will before him in such a position that no one could overlook him. Ge neral Bainbrigge, whether through restlessness or curi osity, stood up, and placed himself near Mr. Blair. Mr. Blair shifted too. The General shifted again, and, peeping over Mr. Blair's shoulder, saw a large gap at the bottom of the second page in blank, and in the other pages large spaces and chasms, pencil writings in the margin, and pencil interlineations in several places. He caught his cousin Joseph Hankey Bainbrigge's eye, who thereupon came into his position, but saw nothing wrong. Perhaps at that moment Mr. Blair had got over the material parts, tend on the re• maining pages there were no blanks, pencil-marks, or interliueations. Unfortunately, at that time General Bainbrigge was on bad terms with his uncle Joseph, who was the heir to the testator; he bad no interest in the matter, and he was going to join his regiment, and thought no more of it. The General, after many years had elapsed, on return from foreign service, went to Doctor's-commons, found the blanks filled in, and the pencil-marks and interlineations removed, and be would swear that] that will was not the will he saw in Mr. Blair's hands; and one strong confirmation of his recol lection was, that all the will was in the handwriting of Mr. Blair's clerk, with the exception of a space at the bottom of the second page, which contained two provi sions, giving Mr. Blair his choice of one of the man sions, and the exclusive right of sportin g . S o p er f ec t and shipshape was the will which the General saw at Doctors'-commons, and so different from that which he saw in Blair's hands, that he believed that several fresh sheets must have been substituted for those which he had seen; and, in confirmation of this. it was to be remarked that the "T. B." on some of the sheets were written in a very different hand from that which made the tremulous signature on others. In a short time after the testator's death Mr. Blair, who professed great regard and. friendship for the heir-at-law, adopted an ingenious plan for preventing the will being disputed. There was a family mansion at Derby which Mr. J. Bainbrigge, the heir at-law, wished to secure in the family. Mr. Blair knew this. There was a debt of 1,5001. or 1,6001. due from the testator to his brother Joseph, which the latter did not like to enforce, lest he might offend him, and it became consequently barred by lapse of time. Blair saw that this was a good opportunity of getting the heir-at-law to confirm the will, and entered into a correspondence with hisu for this purpose, getting him to confirm the will on the terms of the trustees selling him the mansion for the amount of the debt, and setting off the debt against the price. Blair, in that cor respondence, artfully warned Mat that this purchase would afterwards prevent him from disputing the will, but told him at the same time that it would be useless to attempt to upset the last will on the ground of sanity, unless ho could prove that he wits:instil° and incapable of making a will fir the preceding thirty years of his life, as he (Mr. Blair) had got wills in his p oi . ,ession, prepared by himself and others, leaving the property away from the family. Mr. Joseph Bain brigge fell into tho trap, and executed a deed of confirmation of the will, the trustees agreeing to convey the house to him. This conveyance they had not yet made, and in connexion with this there was a remarkable interlineation its the will. There was a pro vision in the will to enable the trust() ati to sell some estates for the purpose of paying debts. The provision, as it stood in the text of the will, did not include this house, and, singularly enough, the words, " and my estates in Derbyshire" were interlined, and the "T. B." Against this interlineation in the margin was written in a very different hand from all the other " T. B.'s" in the will. Subsequently a bill was filed for a specific) per formance of toe agreement to convey. Marianne, at the age of sixteen, ran off to Gretna Green with the son of Alsop, the apothecary, was married, bad two children, And filed a bill against Mr. Blair in order n) establish the will. A suit wan instituted by Mr. Blair to perpetuate testimony. Marianne and children passed off the scene, and her line became extinct. Blair became bankrupt, and new trustees were substituted; and finally the Court of Chancery directed this ejectment to he brought, in order to try the validity of this will. As it would be impossible to give all the evidence in detail within a reasonable compass, we state the effect of those portions of it that were not controverted, and lay the rest before the reader. The execution of the will and codicil of 1815 was proved by the survivor of the three attesting witnesses, who seemed not to have known much previously of the testator. Mr. Thomas Frost,'now a merchant in Liverpool, for merly a pupil to a Mr. Hadley, a surgeon, of Derby, proved that on the Bth of August, 1815, he saw Mr. Bsinbrigge fall heavily from his horse on his head, on the race-course at Derby. He immediately ran to him, and bled him. He was under treatment fann the Bth to the 26th of August, and then went to hi.t country seat. When he left he was in full possession of his mental faculties. Mr. D. Fox, the son of Dr. Fox, surgeon at Derby, had known the testator from 1815. Observed a gradual change in his dress, manners, and equiprige. Met him at dinner several times at his (the testator's) house, and at his father's (Dr. Fox's) house, and thought he was of unsound mind. Mr. A. Fox, another son of Dr. Fox, eras assistant in 1818 to his father. Knew the testator when he lived in Derby. Thought him not capable of making a will at any time during his stay in Osmanston-street. Went with.his father on the Wednesday afternoon to see the testator. He was in a state of great exhaustion. Did not utter a single proposition of any kinel whatever, ex cept when he wanted something to be brought to him. He gradually got worse. On Thursday he was worse. Sat up part of that night with him. He was a dying man, in a state of collapse. He never uttered a single idea, but in a nervous sleepy way would say, if he wanted a sheet or anything, " move it." Saw him re peatedly on Friday. He got worse and worse, and was treated as a dying man in a state of exhaustion. From Wednesday till his death there were periods when there was a sort of sense. On Thursday it was quite out of the question that be could understand a long will. Saw Mr. Blair there on Thursday. Was not in and out of the room when Mr. Blair was with him. Mr. Blair and Mr. Alsop began to search the place for money the mo ment he was dead. Dr. Munro, Dr. Connolly, and Dr. Forbes Winslow were examined to show want of cleanliness, carelessness of dress, profane swearing, in a person of advanced years, were symptomatic of declining intellect. Adam Roe, a labourer, who was the only servant in the testator ' s house when he became mortally ill, and who spoke to his eccentricities, gave the following ac count of his last days and the will scene- The testator drank a good deal of brandy on the Sunday and Mon day; he went to bed in the afternoon of Monday, and witness took off his shoes that day and his coat the next, and left on hiss other clothes till be died. Went on the Tuesday for Mr. Hawthorn, and brought him. Saw him and Arnold often together. It was on the Thursday, he thought he was sent for Mr. Blair, about nine or ten in the morning. Had a letter for him from Dr. Hawthorn. Afterwards saw Alsop there; Alsop, Hawthorne, and Arnold met Mr. Blair at the back door, and they talked together. Saw Mr. Blair writing in a room leading to the squire's. The squire was then insensible. When Me: Blair asked a question he only gave a sort of groan. Mr. Blair brought him a paper and read it over and asked him if it was right? The answer was only a groan. Mr. Blair brought in another part of the paper and asked the same question, and there was another groan and no other answer. Witness was at the bed-side attending the squire, and would have heard any other answer if it had been given. This was repeated three times. The three papers seemed to be like written papers. The answer the third time was a groan too. Then Mr. Blair took a pen and dipped it in the inkstand. There were then present Mrs. Rawlins, a farmer's wife, who lived oar to Jolia Allen, a whoolffright. When Air• 13154 , . . . .-...!: . !:;r. , ,A. I • ' ".• , ' ' • ........ ! - . e . .

From these circumstances it was contended that the accident in 1815 would have produced no such effect on him as the plaintiff pretended. As to Mari anne'a practices, her unfortunate habits appeared to bs the result of her position—she was thrown amongst depraved servants, and acquired from them, and not from the testator, those habits and expressions deposed to by the witnesses. From the earliest period the testator was bent on securing to himself the power of disposing of his property away from his family. His father was net dead a fortnight when he barred the entail. He never seemed to have been quite determined for any length of time as to how he should dispose of the ultimate re mainder of his estates. It was said that it was idle to pretend now that lie was insane ,from 1815 to his death. His family mere living in his immediate neighbourhood. Why, then, not sue out a commission of lunacy against him? Thia was a strong proof that this pretence of his insanity was totally unfounded. But the tact of his eldest brother and heir-at-law confirming the will, ad mitting that it was duly executed, and that the testator was of sound mind and memory, and restraining himself from ever disputing, it, was conclusive. Of the twelve persona who were present at the Tastaseeneant thia genti man's life, ten by their oaths and acts ratified this will. What, motive bad all these people for entering into this conspi racy? Mr. Blai r was at the t i me of this alleged crime, it was admitted by the Solicitor-General, one of:the most emi ' nent and respectable solicitors in the county. He had through a long series of years enjoyed the confidence of Mr. Bainbriege, and would he sacrifice reputation, posi tion, and all that was dearest for the sake of having an exclusive right of sporting , instead o f a Aare with t wo others? What did Alln and Rawlins gain by their machinatiens? Again, it was said that the testator never forgave Arnold; that was not so. A short time before his death, old Arnold, who had first given him offence, had died, and his executors bad locked up 4 gate against the testator; and young Arnold, the hus band of his daughter k had broken off the lock. This pleased him; he sent for Arnold, and spoke kindly to him, and saw him on several occasions. There was no pretence for saying Mr. Blair gained anything by this will which could induce him to commit the complication of crimes imputed to him by the plaintiff. There was not the slightest reason for supposing that there was any blank in it when it was read after .o),' funeral. Not a letter °tithed beau altered singe it west signed. • It was seen before the funeral by M, gash. ton, solicitor of Uttoxeter, who was then an artist* clerk - to Mr. Blair, and he would prove that west now in the same state it was then, and that he, before, the funeral, made o u t t wo co pi es — one o f wh i ch he would produce to the jury. Mr. Rushton did speak positively to these circumstances; but in cross-examination by the Solicitor-General he was not able to swear that the copy which was now banded to him was one of those two which he had . made before the funeral, or that a third copy had not been made. It was, therefore, contended that General Bainbrigge must be mistaken in what he fancied he saw at the funeral. Wm. Arnold himself swore that during his father's life the old snail never spoke to him; that his father died in 1817;\ that his exe cutors had a dispute with the testator about a right of way. They locked up the gate, which made him angry. He (Arnold) knocked off the lock, and soon afterwards received a message from the testator to call and see him. He went. They spoke about the lock, and the old man was pleased, and desired him to have some think, which he declined. He had been long anxious to cut down some trees on his (Arnold's) farm, but his father would not allow him. Meeting him soon again, he (W. Arnold) told him he might cut them, and this also pleased him, and he said witness might have the loppings and bark; and they walked to his house together. He stopped an hour and bad some gin and water, and the old man said he was not one of those who would draw the sword and would never sheathe it. He said he would take care of his daughter, but would not leave her a shilling, and expressed no desire to see her. In cross- - examination this witness was asked when his wife died, and be was for a few moments puzzled for an answer, saying he did not know exactly, tout at last saying it was in 1827 or 1828. Considering that she was the cause of all this litigation this answer created great surprise. In answer to further questions he answered as follows :—" I was not at the house, as I believe, during his last illness, except the last day. My wile did not go there ; she never saw him in his illness. I always from my marriage lived in a cottage given to me by testator, and not with my father. I now live upon some money I got with my second wife. I have no means of subsistence but what my son al -1:)ws me ; if the estate goes I will have no means of support. The next witness, however, who was called for the defendant, swore, on cross-examination, that she had seen him at testator's on the Monday or Tuesday of his last illness, and that the testator had frequently said, within a short time of his illness, " Martha Arnold should not have a penny of his money; that if nit daughter had married the coachman she would have made a woman of herself; but that by marrying Arnold she proved herself an abandoned character." In sup port of the due execution of the codicil and will, which were treated throughout as substantially one transaction, a considerable body of evidence was given. The codicil, which was executed on the 17th June, was attested by Adam M,e, John Allen, and Mr. Alsop, and the will was attested by Dr. Fox, John Allen, and Mrs. Rae lino. Adam Ilne was examined for the plaintiff., Allen and Alsop considered testator (if sound mind, memory, and understanding. Mr. Alsop, who had been a surgeon and apothecary at Uttoxeter, also deposed to the due execution of the codicil, and the perfect compe tence of the testator. His evidence was sought to Le impeached on the ground that at the time he made this deposition be was considerably indebted to Mr. Blair, but said be had given him securities and was bankrupt, and was actually living, at the time of his ex amination, in one of the mansions selee , ed by Mr. Blair under the will. Dr. Fox was dead, arid had riot been ex amieed. Mrs. Alice Paulin., the wile of Francis Raw lins, swore that she was sent for on the Thursday to Woodscat. Went; saw the testator; that he was quite conscious and sensib e, and spoke to her and others. Asked her whether she could write. She said not well; and when ho signed the will, said, " This is my last will and testsment.' He also signed his initials. In cross examination . her credit was impeached, on the ground that she and her husband had left the farm of 90 acres they had held, as the agent behaved shabbily, and went to live at Leamington, end afterwards in Derbyshire; and about five years ago were brought beck by the de fendant, and allowed a cottage sand seven acres of land and the grass of the cows, without an arreement as to rent till last year, when it was settled at 20 guineas, and also were allowed to draw a few small !AIM of money occasionally from him, and had not settled the no count. Mr. Thomas Salt, a surgeon at Ruge- Hey, who was described by Lord Campbell, in his summing up to the jury, as a most re spectable witness, on whose statements they might rely, proved that he was apprenticed to Mr. Hawthorn in 1818, and that a message came from Mr. Hawthorn on Tuesday, the 16th of Juee, to go to see Mr. Bain brigge; that Mr. Hawthorn being at Birmingham, and the message pressing, be went himself and saw him. He was in bed, and very ill, but perfectly sensible. He visited him again in the evening; he was then sensible, and conversed about his illn( ss and the symptoms. He saw him no more, as Mr. Hawthorn came home that night about twelve, and went at once to see him. He believed he was the first medical man who saw him. He made an entry of his visit in Dr. Hawthorn's book. John Mellor, a farmer, proved that on the night of the 16th June he was sent for to the testator and saw him in bed. He said he was very ill, very ill indeed, and asked him if he would go to Derby for Dr. Fox; he was to start at twelve, and desired by the testator to lie down till that hour in the room next to him, and he would call him in time. He did so, and gave him a note to Dr. Fox, and desired him to ride his pony, and if Dr. Fox were not at home to come through Uttoxeter and bring Dr. Hawthorn. This man's story, Lord Campbell, in summing up; said was very probable, and the only mode of accouuting for Dr. Fox's presence at the scene. The trustee, Hawthorne, was dead. Mr. Blair, an attorney, practising at Uttoxeter fur 53 years, knew testator since 1798. Employedhim that year, after his father's death; to bar the entail. Was his confidential solicitor in 1808. Prepared the will of 1808. Had not p then seen the will of 1803. Becattie very intimate with mat - Frew ait-generally shabby in dress, but not very outrageous. -At dinner parties he was dressed like a gentleman. Ho was a careful man of business, and added to his patrimonial property by several purchases. When he was offended with his daughter for marrying he received instructions to prepare the will of 1812. While he was at Derby he had a purchase for 6,000/. hanging over, and managed it well. Prepared the will of 1815 and the codicil to it. During his last illness he was called up in the night of the Wednesday, the 17th June, and rode over to him. He said ho was very ill and wanted to make an alteration in his will. Received his instructions, and prepared the codicil immediately in an adjoining room. Read it over to him. He required several alterations to be made. They were accordingly made, and they now appear in it. In one of these he (Mr. Blair) had limited the remainder to Mrs. A.'s heirs male, and he ordered " male*to be struck out. After it bad been altered he signed it. The codicil was only a temporary precaution. Went home to prepare a formal will, and did it by altering the will of 1818 in pencil, and adding clauses by way Of rider. It was then engrossed. A blank was left at the bottom of the second page for this reason. In all former wills (said Mr. Blair) my co-trustees were not sportsmen. Both the new trustee were sportsmen, and I determined_to ask Mr. B. what his wishes were OR the subject,.and he gave me directions pursuant to .my wishes, when I took the will to tom on the Thursday Morning. His instruc tions were that I should have the exclusive right of shooting over his estates during the minority of any tenant foe life or entail, and the use of any of his houses, except Woodscat, for myself and his granddaughter, who was left under my care. I know of no other blank in the will. Having received the instructions mentioned I tilled up the blank at the bottom of the seeondpage r . I explained the heads of the will to him, and rea d s ove !hat elau,e, and he executed it. Mr. Fox, Mr . . b Raw lins, and John Allen were present. Mr. Bain ry e e understood is as wall ai I aid. I n reading over oLe d r in h paresis to be said, he directed this add ition—" Those words were y He did not direct estate in the county interlined, and he initialed them. ° them .. . knew w them — lotuses o r o f and laeggraelamdoecnuts ments, and u other alterati g e o nS. with t • tenants (produces some). He used to sign his ta dra w his name " The. Bambriege," but be signed the will " Thomas Bainbrigge," in full, at my suggestion, as all the interlirieations were marked with his initials only. I said to him, " You need only put your initials to the interlineatious, and sign your name in lull at the end." It was executed at about ten A.M., or a little after. li e sent for me again on the Friday, and he gave me in structions to,prepare a settlement of part of his personal estate, for the purpose of saving probate end legacy duty. I went home, got it prepared, and cam© back dipped the pen in the inkstand, he put it in the squire's hand, and he put his hand under the squire's arm, and the squire wrote something. Allea signed the paper. Witness put his mark to it. This was the first paper that was signed. Thought Dr. Fox came on Wednesday. Mrs. Arnold came to the house many times after the squire took to his bed, but not with his knowledge. She did not go into his roots. Mr. Arnold asked witness several times to be allowed to go io. He went to the door once. He durst not allow him to go in. Ho peeped at the squire in b<el. Saw Mrs. Arnold in conversation with Mr. Blair, Mr. Hawthorn, and Mr. Alsop on one occasion, and with one or more of them frequently. Two of the squire's nephews came and were roused admission; his brother, Captain John Bainbrigge, came on the Friday or the Saturday. The little girl denied his coming up stairs; he forced his way, and went to his brother's bed-room, who took no notice of him. The captain cried over him, and asked him whether he would not speak to his brother Jobe. The squire did not kno# him, and took no nctice at all of him. The captain remained three-quarters of au hour. Nono of his relations were sent for during his last illness. They did not want his relations to come. Ife died about half-past two in the unernoon of Satur day. As soon as he was dead Mr. Blair, Mr. Hawthorn, and Mr. Alsop began to work right and left. and began tumbling. On the squire's death Mr. Arnold was placed in authority. _ _ Cross-examined—Always considered him a madman —e dangerous madman. He was insensible from Mon day; incapable of making his will or doing any busi ness. Was not able to speak after Thursday; then ceased to speak. Up to that time was continually cursing. Saw Mr. Blair dip the pen in the ink, put the pen in Mr. Bainbrigge's hand and guide It. Supported it while he wrote. air. Blair held )fir. Bainbrigge's hand below the wriet.- Mr. Bainbrigge was st that time in sensible and speechless. Mary Roe, the wife of the above, was examined under a commission from the Court of - Chancery : for the pur pose of perpetuating testimony, and 'having since died her deposition was now read. She stated that on the testator being taken ill she was sent for to attend him, and that he lay in a dying and apparently unconscious state from the Monday till the Saturday. During all that limo she never heard him speak coherently, and he was incapable of holding any conversation, and when spoken to answered only by groaning. That he was crouched up in his bed, and was continually groaning as if in great pain, and remained from the Monday till his death in a state of insensibility, or apparent in sensibility, to all that was passing, and during all that time he was incapable of making a will or transacting any worldly business. It was proved by Colonel Bainbrigge that when he and his brother called on the Tuesday, the little girl Marianne and a woman met them, and the woman said the old gentleman was two ill to be seen. Major-General Sir Thomas Bainbrigge—Am Com mander of the Belfast Division, son of the late Colonel Philip 3ainbrigge. He was the youngest brother of the testator, and was killed in action in Holland. Saw uncle Thomas in 1815, in the spring. Dined with him. In June left that part of the country. In 1818 was in the country again, and heard of uncle's illness. Went to see him with my brother. Was not admitted. On the Thursday before his death sent up my own card and wrote my brother's name upon it. Saw a female servant and the little girl Marianne, and the answer I received was that Mr. Bainbrigge was too ill to see anybody. Was again there on the Monday. Went over again with my mother, my wife, my sister Mrs. R. Dale, and my brother, Mr. Peter Le Hunt. We were admitted into the house. Mr. Arnold was the master of the house. Immediately after the funeral we made application to Mr. Blair to see the will. Mr. Blair, Mr. Arnold, my uncle Joseph, my cousin Joseph, and myself were there. He said, " The will is not here ; it is at Ut toxeter." We desired that it should be sent for im mediately. He said it should be sent for by a man on horseback. In about an hour the will was produced. It was brought by Mr. Blair into the room where we four were assembled. The table was in the middle of the room, and we were all standing up. Mr. Blair had the will in his hand, and came in, accompanied by Dr. Fox, and said, " Now, gentlemen, if you will take your seats I will read the will." We all sat down, and made a point of sitting so as to see Mr. Blair, who sat at the table with his back to the door. Mr. Blair began to read the will. After he had read a page I got up and went to look over him. I came up to his right shoulder, on which he, who had the will before him on the table, put forward his shoulder and head, as if to prevent me from looking at the will. I immediately shifted my ground, and tame round to the left shoulder. He did not attompt to interpose between me and the will then. I had a full view of it. Ile continued reading. It appeared to me an incomplete document. I taw a great many pencil marks in the body of the will— interlint ations. I saw pencil writings in the marlin. There were severe! long lines of interlineations in the body of the will, and gaps and openings, as I conceived to be filled up, at some future retied. Saw several such opening.. On one page, at the bottom, there was a good deal of space. Saw a large opening at the bottom of the second page. He read while I was looking over him— perhaps, two pages. Ile had read one belore I got up. lie read. say a page and a half, before I beckoned to my cousin Ilankoy, who is now dead. iie came immediately. and stood behind Mr. 13Iair's right-hand shoulder. I remained a littlo time. Saw another page or two turned over, and resumed my seat. All the pages I saw bid some interliueations, and there were blanks in every page. I made no- remark. Young Jose-pa Hankcy Bainbrigge stood over Mr. Blair all the time his read. At that time, unfortunately, I was not on speaking terms with my uncle Joseph, who was the next brother of the testator. John was next to Joseph. My uncle Jceleph had then several children, and my father was dead, my mother alive, and had eight child ren , in nar row circumstances. My aunt, Mrs. Jame s , h a d some seven or eight children, and was nut in affluent circum stances. Afetr the funeral I went to Liverpool, and did not return to that part of the country for two or three years. Went afterwards to Doctors' -commons to see the will. It was not in the same state as when I had been it in Mr. Blair's hands. My nephew, the plaintiff, was, at the time of the funeral, in India, and did not re turn till 1823. . - Cross-examined—It was ten years after the funeral I went to see the will. I was on speaking terms with my cousin Joseph Hankey Bainbrigge. Mr. Blair was aware that I was overlooking him. By several blanks I mean to =ay that I saw two or three blanks in each page and a large blank in the second page at the bottom. Some were shorter, some larger. Some were as long as a line and a half. Made no observation to Mr. Blair. I went to see the will, in order to see in what state it was atter it had been proved. It was in quite a different state. I could not recognise pencil marks in it. It seemei to me as if some leaves had been taken out and others put in. I recognised the traces flf pencil marks in the margin, and could not see any in the body of the will. They must have been very well rubbed out. I mentioned the appearance of the will at once to John Bainbrigge, the brother of the testator, and the brother of Joseph. It was the subject of our conversation. John was on speaking terms with his brother Joseph. I mentioned the subject to the members of my family, to my uncle John as I was riding home, and to my cousin, Thomas Parker Bainbrigge. Re-examined (the will was put into his hands)—l be lieve firmly that the parts in the second page in another handwriting were not there when I saw the will after the funeral. The lines there now occupy . the blank space that was there when I saw the will. The case for the defendant was, that the testator was a man who restrained himself in company, but at home and in private indulged in those passices and habits which he formed at an early age, and at a period when society was in a very different state to what it is at pre sent, when those habits of drinking and swearing were not confined to any particuide class, but pervaded those higher classes in which his position entitled him to move. From the earliest period he bad beett'slovenly in dress, and eccentric and violent, and especially ad dicted to wreak his anger on his doinestics; but no man was more shrewd in matters' of business. He was a most active and intelligent magistrate, and in one respect in advance of most other magis trates of his period, generally making all his ma gisterial business returnable at petty sessions instead of his own house. N - one of his brother magistrates perceived any alteration in his mental powers, and up to the last moment he was as intelligent as ever. A geetleman named John Salt, of Uttoxeter, who knew bite for 40 years, and had often dined with hi m at h i s own house an his (testator's) houses, deposed that his habits for some time before his death were not only as cleanly as those of other gentlemen of his station, but that be was of sound mind and understanding. Mark Anthony White, Esq., a magistrate of Stafford shire, deposed to the fact that no one could behave with greater propriety than the testator, and fulfilled the du ties of a magistrate very well within the two last years of his life, and certainly after the fall. Several tenants and neighbouring farmers, collectors of taxes, andothers, spoke also to his sanity and good management of his bu siness. Mr. Whiston, solicitor in Derby, said he wee eccentric, but a perfect man of business; that in 1816 he tritnsauted some business with him. Part of it was to convey the equity of redemption of a house in Derby, and he managed it with acuteness and discrimination. Another witness, a farmer, said he was a little rough sometimes, but very sensible. A great mass of correspondence between him siAl va rious parties with whim he had dealings up to a very short period of his death was read, to show that there was no: the slightest difference in his style before and after 1815, and that to the last be was in all his busi ness transactions as perfectly shrewd and sane as any man could be, and certainly the correspondence was such as no person need be ashamed of. Up to June lfe 1818, a few days More his death, he kept a regular diary of all his proceeding ,, , and there all his payments were entered, even the visit of friends, and every tact of which it was important be should have a memoran dum. In these diaries entries were found to correspond with the facts stated by some of the witnesses; but it was intimated from the other side that the witnesses had pie viously heard of the entries. One fact connected with these diaries was noticed as very material by his Lord. ship. There were t we lv e o f th e se books, and he allowed the Solicitor -General to take them home .on Saturday night, so that he might, after his devotions on Sunday, look througla thew, and find out if Possiblesorne entries ' LC' throw light on the subject of this inquiry) but 1Z: TO SECRETARIES OF PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS, CLERKS, STATION-MASTERS, RAILWAY OFFICIALS, BANKERS' CLERKS, AND OTHERS.
