EQUITY COURTS.—YESTERDAT.
BYO/{ IVO LOOM CIIANCILLLOS.
MISS TALBOT'S CASE.
DoTLI C. Watour AND

BERKELEY'S PETITION.
Mr. J. Parker, counsel for the Earl and Countess of
Shrewsbury, resumed his argument mminst the prayer of
the petition, at the point where he stmped at the rising of
the court on Monday. He would *,how that the conduct of
his clients was entirely blameless, and that the charges
brought against them by Mr. C. Berkeley's petition on this
loecasion were unfounded. Ile thought there was sume radi-
i take on Mr. Berkeley's part respecting the meaning of the
order of 1843; and his counsel accordingly argued that the
order imposed on Lord and Lady Shrewsbury the duty of
taking the young lady away from the convent school,
I and bringing her up under their own inspection.
The terms of the order would not bear that mean-

log. She was to be brought up under " their care and
management, with liberty to take her abroad with them."
The meaning and intention of which clearly was, that they
were to be associated with the testamentary guardiaa while
in this country, and to have power, without further order
of the court, to take the young lady abroad with them.
These words were added to save the trouble of coming to
the court fisr a new order whenever Lord and Loris' Shrews-
: bury should be going abroad. They were then in the habit
of going to Italy, to sec their relatives, every autumn ; but
it happened that for two years alter the order they did not
leave England, and when they did go, iu 18.15, it was to
restore the health of their nephew, brother of his ward, and
that was not an occasion to take her with them. The
order did not impose any obligation on them to take her.
Mr. Berkeley, in his present petition, stated that he would
never have consented to the order if lie did not understand
"that the young lady was to re-ide thenceforward
under the roof of Lord and Lady Shrewsbury.
To say that he (Mr. Berkeley) consented to the order,"
was not true in the sense m what Mr. Berkeley meant.
The order was made after much discussion, and the Vice-
Chancellor delivered his judgment, which was read in court
on a former day. The real purport of Mr. Berkeley's peti-
tion in 1843, and of the order made on it was to reduce the
allowance of 5401. which the truster s bud pita-M.1.4y paid
for the lady's, maintenance under direction, to 2701. The
object was that as long as she remained at isehool under Dr.
Doyle's care that sum should be paid: but it could not be
supposed that it she were to reside with Lady Shrewsbury
the same allowance would not be continued that wee paid
while she was under 10 years of age and living with her
mother. That is the proper view of the order, and the only
construction of it that can be collected from the affidavits
now filed on both sides. lie read extracts from the affi-
davit' of Mr. Berkeley and his solicitor, Mr. Coretield, and
also from those made by Dr. Doyle and his solicitor, Mr.
Norris, and contended that they sustained his construction
of the order. Now, the charge brought by Mr. Berkeley
against Lord and Lady Shrewsbury was that, notwithstamb
big this order, which gave them leave to take the young
holy abroad, they never slid take her abroad, but left her
fur seven years, front 1813 to POO, at the school, except
short visits mole by her to Alton Towers. And that
because, when on her last visit there (in 18.50), she would
not consent to marry as they proposed to her,
Lady Shrewsbury, from vindictive feeling's, rent her
Zack to a place where she was not properly treated, and for
the purpose of compelling her to become a nun. That
was the case which the attidevits on behalf of Dr. Doyle
and Lord Shrewsbury were made to answer. liut Mr.
Berkeley after coming into court varied his charms, and
abandoned the base charge of the compulsory marriage.
Ilis present charge is that the earl uud wands ss allowed
the ward to remain uncured for by them fir sight years in
the convent school, and went shroud in IS without taking
her, contrary, as he says, to the intention of the order of 1843.
Most setiefactory reasons hiors been already given
for nut taking her in h-it, wheel tiny wont
with another relative, the heir to the titles and
estates, to seek for him a restoration of his health.
Well, as they could nut take Miss Tuned. end as she had
no other near relations, what was more natural for them,
and for her alas, than that she ehould go back to the school
where she had been for nine years unsung lathes of tier own
rank in life, to souse of whom she UMW IlatUially funned
an attarnment, such as young ladies of her age are likely to
entertain fur earls other. She was, accordingly, taken
by Lord Shrewsbury himself, with the approbetion of the
guardian. Mr. Berkeley has nowhere stated upon whose
information he founded those scandalous ehareess. He
says he " has been intbruull, and belies "
and SU/ hut dues not say by whose iatbrmation
he dares to make such hose charges. [The lewd
Chancellor here, and in other parts during the argu-
ment, interposed observations, which we omit, because
his lordship repeats them in his judgment.; Ile (Mr. Par-
ker) did nut hesitate to say that an unpardonable contempt
of court has been committed by Mr. Berkeley in making
those charges, without the slightest foundatiou for them,
and he should be the last man %limn his lordeLip should
trust with any share in the guardianship of the young Lady.
It is wholly flee that a nowrieee was forced on her; it Is
equally false that she was sent beck by her noble relatives
islet guardian to he a nun. The latter charge was contra-
dicted positively by Miss Jerninghem in her affidavit. She
says :

It was to be regretted that Lord Shrewsbury, being abroad,
no affidavit from hint could slow be productel, because
he would give the most unqualified contradiction to those
imputations so groundlessly cast on him. But the lady
who was at party to the conversation with Mr. Berkeley
denies his statements moat pointeiLy, and the admissions
which she makes, instead of being turned against her, only
entitle her to greater credence from his lordship. She
itilmiti Mt++ Talbot was a nominal postulant by re assail of
the rule of the convent against taking lathes as boarders
after completing their education. 'that and her other ad-
missions entitle her positive statements to implicit credit.
Ile (Mr. Parker) could have wiehed extremely that
the ward had nut been received as a postulant
at all, because then there would be no pretence at
all for Mr. Berkeley's statements. But where else could
this young lady go under the circumstances? Where could
she have better protection ? It was aloe part of these
charges that she was not to receive any visitor except in the
presence of the superioresa. Why, it she had hyena postu-
lant she could not be allowed to receive any visitor. It
was the duty of the Earl of Shrewsbury and of the guar-
dian to surround this young lady with proper protection.
What father would permit his daughter at a school or else-
where to be visited by persons without the presence of the
lady of the school or convent? The fact was, that in all this
movement Mr. Berkeley had other objects. It was desirable
at the present moment to bring this matter against nuns
and cement., forward. Mr. Berkeley having, by his lord-
ship's refusal to grant a habeas corpus, failed in making is
public exhibition of this young lady, by brin4ing her b, fare
the court by un officer, he then proposed this petition, and
attempted to get from his lordship a promise of his costs,
and not receiving that promise, he then said he would
present his petition to the House of Commons, and so he
did to create an excitement. That wa. a (+lows: which was
wholly unjustifiable. Ile hoped the petition would be dim
miesed, and dismissed with costs.
Mr. F. Riddell said he appeared for the defemluno,—the
trustees of the will of the late Earl of Shrewsbury—and in
their behalf he objected to the payment of the ci.-ts of Mr.
Berkeley's petition out of the trust fund. In addition to
the Mt% cited by Mr. Parker yesterday, " Glass:cot es Lang,"
and Ferrell r. Hobson," (both in 2 Phillips, pp. 2.44 and
310,) he cited the caw of " :Calder r. Hawkins," (2 Mylne
and Keen, '213,) to show that where a plaintiff or petitioner
makes a ease of personal treed or misconduct, and fails to
prove, or abandons that east ut the hearing, the
I bill or petition should be dismissed with costs.
He read Lord Broughton's judgment in the last case, hold-
ing that where a bill is filed on behalf of infants under eir-
cumstence. raising Is strong suspicion against the motives of
the next friend, the court will direct au inquiry; and it it
I appears that the next friend's motives were nut justifieble,
his bill will be dismissed with costs. The learned counsel
applied those cases to the case befiire the court, and hoped
his lonlehip, seeing that Mr. C. Berkeley's interference was
improper, would dismiss his petitien with mots. Ile
also cited the opinion of Lord Eldon to the same Met, in
rr Pearce re Pearce " (9 Vex}, 648).
The Solicitor General (Mr. P. Wood) trimmed surprise
at the course which his learned friends had taken, who,
with all their denunciations of his client, never con-
descended to explain how it was that Miss Talhot, a ward
of court, was placed in the convent as a postulant, because
a postulant she was—a real postulant, and net a nominal
one, us was said—a fact which would not have been
known to the court had it not been for Mr. Ber-
keley, ao his lordship had said more than once in
the course of this discussion. Whether there was
not eonee indiscretion committed Ire Mr. Berkeley
in the manner iu which he has brought forward this case,
he would not argue, but he woul.l say that he Alai unques-
tionably entitled to the greatest credit for haling brought
the matt:e to his lordship's attention. He insisted that
there v, ere letters in existence that passed between Miss

Jemingham and Dr. Winter, or Pr. Hendren, which
would throw light on this matter if they were produced.
They would show whether the lady was received as a pos-
tulant or boarder. Pr Winter made no affidavit—
Mr. Parker supposed he was with Lord Shrewsbury.
The Solicitor-General.—lt was said thin was a decree Rot
up fora public purpose, and that he had refused to have it
heard in private. The contrary was the fact, for leis lord-
ship would recollect that when the matter was first brought
forward, he had said that he and his client were perfectly
ready to take the whole matter before the blaster, and thus
prevent the matter getting that publicity which had been
given to the proceedings. Unfortunately, for the other side,
Bishop Hendren, by his letters in the public papers, admit-
ted and justified the postulaney ; and there could be no
doubt that a ward of the court had been placed in the Mil-
vent with a view to take the veil. lie had not thought it
necessary, on hie opening of thin petition, to say one word
about the marriage, hut his friends hail thought proper to
drag in the whole of the subject, unpleasant :.4 the pub-
licity might he to the young lady. herself. Nis learued
friend had thought it right to insinuate lour times that
the young lady'+ mother was a person destitute of all
delicacy, and it mattered little to him that she was the
mother of the ward. It was well known that she had been
separated from her husband ; and he would sae, that that
separation was not the fault of the lady. learned
friends had not spored any of the parties in the case opposed
to theta, for they abused the whole of them. 'fle mother
had been lett penniless in the world, and he wan not sur-
prised that, under these circumstances, she in toll months
after the death of her husband, from whom she hail been
separated for seven years, should seek protectimt and a
home by intermarrying with Mr. Berkeley. Immediately
that Mr. Berkeley had read the lett. rof Miss Talbot to the
Lord Chancellor, he took instant steps to bring the whole of
the case before his lordship, which was the first mament
that he had learnt the astounding fact th:.t the young lady
Was in the convent. instead of being placed, as he had
thought, in the residence of Lord and lady Shrewsbury.
'that letter had appeared in the newspapers, and his scdi-
cdor had instructed hint to say that he hail not the least
notion how that letter had obtained circulation and pub-
licity. Now, what was Mr. Berkeley's position in refer-
ence to the ease ? No one had attempted to peotect the
rung lady until he had stepped in, and he was the.
at person who had given information to his lordship,
which had given him sonic status before the court ; and lie
had a right to inquire into the real facts of the ea, , espe-
cially in regard to the conduct of Lord and lady shreo %-
bury. lie had obtained his information front Boman
catholic friends, and not from protestant., who, as his
learned friend stated, had been desirous of making a great
protestant display. He regretted that Mr. Berkeley had
seen his lordship in private.
The bird Chancellor—l do not ace there was any impro-
priety in Mr. Berkeley seeing me in private with his:solicit:a.,
Mr the purpose of procuring a habeas corpus; all judge* were
in the habit of grunting such applications in private.
The Solicitor-General—Mr. Berkeley had heard a ru-
mour that the young lady was in a convent, and that a
marriage had lwen proposed; that a gmtletnitit of high
name had been mentioned, who was not distasteful to the
pang lady, but was to the guardian and his lordship.
'f he Lord Chancellor—The gentleman was nut distasteful
to him ; he knew nothing about him, and had never
seen him. _ _

The Solicitor-Marna—lle Lad thou,cht the gentleman
was the Duke de HOCIIVIIMICAIIit, Who was 53 years of age,
hut it appear. it was the duke's brother, and only Lli years.
Well, Mr. Berk,ley heard that the young lady was at a
convent, plwed thereby Lord Shrewsbury for the purist.. of
taking the veil and becoming a
found her there m a po.tulant, and immediat. lv waited
upon his lordship for an order of habeius corpus. His husk-
ship was surpri-ed to hear that the young lady was in a
state of postulaney, but he stated that the application must
be made iu regular form in open court.

The Lord Chancellor—When I told him ha must attend
in otwn tours, he merely said, eery maurally, Will that
he at my own cost :" I told hint lw must act a' he thought
proper ; when he replied, that he would present a petition
to the House or Commons.
"

The Solicitor-General—lt was proved beyond dispute
that the Ear! and Countess of Shrewsbury had plated the
young lady in the convent in order that an ineuenee might
there be exercised that she should ultimately take the veil.
Dr. Doyle had never been awakened to the danger of the
young lady Wier placed in a convent till the 13th of March
when he wrote to her, dissuading her from breomin • a nun,
as he did not think her fitted for doing so; and too wrote
became, he thought she was wavering upon the subj. ct.
The next thing that Mr. Berkeley heard was, that a now
ton had been made by Mr. halt to bring the matter be-
fore the court; and then it was that Mr. Berkeley
judged it proper fur him to interfere, when he tiled his affi-
davit, and presented his petition, at which moment he did
not know of any default on the part of Dr. Doyle; hat when
they had seen tie !otter of the young lady, then it was that
he first leurn..al that the y g lady had teen ail the while
in a convent, and then he owned notes, that he would ask
for the removal of Dr. Doyle. as he had acted contrary to
the orders of the court in allowing her to he tin r, . Ha
had had abundant ;mounds to ask for the removal of Ur.
Doyle, as well as of Lord and lady Shrewsbury. They may
be said to ha,: 11,11 T. 1144 •It for they had actually idum-
d I all tare and management of the young laty. Tito
mother died in 1841 ; the child was placed in the convent,
and Mr. Berkeley had Well her there, and had drWrilla
what sort of a place it was; and although her education hail
eu.t only 1231. per year, yet the guardian had Is et veep v-
ing an allowance of 5101. Mr. Berkeley thought it right to
make the Lord Chancellor acquainted with that faet, when
an order was made Mr a reduetion: and hail it not ben ter
Mr. Berkeley, Dr. Doyle would still have been r clients.;
440/. per annum, although he only expended 123/. 4 year.
Ile did not oliject to cheap education, but he did not know
what reason there was why 1)r. Doyle should 'active Mt.,
when only UV. was required. The Vim Chancellor, in his
judgment in making the order of 1813, had thought that tho
Shrewsburys went to Italy once a year, and, therefore,
thought that it would be advantageous fur the young lady
to be placed with them, in order that her delisote health
might he improved by travelling to the mica-side. and never
dreamt that she would be plated in a content while they
were on their journeys. With respect to the money, ho
never meant to insinuate that Dr. Doyle had picketed the
surplus of the allowance furnished by the Vie.. (la incellor.
Mr. Berkeley went to rke the young lady at t!i convent,
but could not see her except in the present, of of third
person. His client then sought for an aril to . i-it her,
stating that he hail email her much nes:l,h it in lag per-
son, and that Lord and Lady Shrewsbury had not seen her
fur a year. Was wit that a delusion practised 41,411 the
court, to put them forward as the persons who had taken
care of her ? In fact, the Young lady never had a home.
This lung neglect Nattiest 'him to say that Dr. Doyle was
not a person tit to have the young lady iu his ottattlilmship.
When the young lady was suffering under a tielit ate disap-
-1 • tmeut, in consequence of the mariiage Iw ing broken
off, why di 1 hot lord and La ly /Shrewsbury
take her abroad, instead of placing le r in a convent
as a postulant ? In fact they had alnutdoned her
at a most critical moment. The gray:tun n of the charge
etas that she was sent to the convent as a l ostulant. That
was a point upon which his lordship must deal. Dr. Moyle
lead, in a most extraordinary affidavit, said that he did nut
wish her to become a nun ; but how did he get that impress-
shoo, unless he had been informed that she wes there in that
character? If Bishop Hendren had been brought forward
1w could have acquaiuted his lordship of ;he whole facts of
the case ; but his learned friends had kept him iu the back-
ground, lest he should say too much. He, however, had
Said that the abbess had told hint that the young lady had
written a most earliest, supplicating letter, entreating to Ma
allowed to become a postulant. This letter had completely
frightened the nuns, lest they should get psi...team of her
large fortune. That was the statement of Dr. Hendren.
He must say that the lady abbess. had 144.1, a most candid
statement, which was, that she had dropped all mention of
the subject, hut referred Dr. Winter to the bishop, and had
understood that Dr. Hendren had git en his permis-
sion to receive the young lady as a pistol:nit; and yet
his learned friends ceded upon the court to believe
she had boon placed iii a convent merely in the
character of a boarder. In faet, the whole of the
aliheiss's affidavit distinctly proved, hestind all question,
that the young lady was in the sou, rat as a postulant.
There could be nu doubt whatever but that a gross con-
, tempt of court had heels committed by Dr. Doyle. .1 (pea-
! tion had been raised as to whether the young lady had
entered as a boarder or as a postulant. That court was
jealous of every kind of spiritual influence, and therefore het
would say that such persons as Dr. Disks and Lord and
Lady Shrewsbury, were nut such persons us his lordship
would approve of to he the guardians of u ward of court.
Mr. Berkeley was entitled to the appnohation of his lord-
ship for the course he had taken in the matter under con-
sideration; and he therefore called upon his lordship to
allow him to attend before the Martyr, 0110 was to frame a
scheme—even if his lordship did not think rigl.t to appoint
hint so stepfather and nest friend to be her future guardian,
he certainly ought to be permitted to attend the Muster,
ith liberty to propose aschi me, if he thought proper to do so.
Those who had instructed his learned friends had not dared
to say one word against the honour of his client. If Mr.
Berkeley were appointed her guardian, her relations would
have access to her ; and, besides, the lady had nu repug-
nance to him, and it could not be proved that she had any
objection to his company. Dr. Doyle took no pains to pre-
vent the young lady from being placed in a convent, and
was therefore a totally unlit persou to have charge of her.
It was no fault of Mr. Berkeley's that the coincidence hap-
pened that he had interhred to prevent this young lady's
large fortune of 85,e00/. getting into the possession of the
Roman catholic, at the very epoch when the Pope was en-
deavouring to establish a hierarchy in this country, for
which so large a sum would be necessary. Mr. Berkeley
had succeeded in having placed this young lady in proper
hands, and therefore he could not for a moment be charged
with the expense, of having acted in so proper a manila on
behalf of the young :ally. lie, therefore, trusted that Mr.
Berkeley woad be permitted to attend the Masts r on the
reference that was made in Doylo's petition. Ile hoped,
also, hi, costs in this matter would be allowed, except, per-
haps, the costa of the amended petition.
The Lord Chars:dim and Mr. Holt said they were not
aware of a second petition.
The F,olictordacneral said Mr. Holt must have been
aware of it, for notice of the additional charge was given to
his client by Mr. Berkeley's solicitor. Atter some further
argument he cited a case of " White v. Meade " el Irish
Equity Reports), before Mr. Baron Pennefathcr, to show
that postulants in these catholic nunneries were obliged to
give up th-Sr property to the convent. Ile trusted his lord-
ship would grant the several parts of the prayer of the
amended petition.
Mr. Holt, retorting to the case just cited, said it bad no
bearing whatsoever on the present ease.
The court was crowded at this time in all parts.
The Lord Chancellor, immediately after the assument
eta, cunt:lad A, proceeded to give Ids judgment. said:
