THE PIONCIPAL, REGENTS, AND PROFESSORS OF GLAS•

—CHAIUTT.—WIISTRII MEMBERS OF THE. EPISCOPAL
CHURCH IN SCOTLAND ARE ENTITLED.—This is an appeal
from a decree of Vice Chancellor Knight Bruce upon an in.
formation tiled in 1841 by the Attorney-General at the rela-
tion of toe lion. John Hay Forbes (Lard Medwyn, one of
the judges of the Court of Sesion in Scotland) end James
Robert Hope (both members of the episcopal church in Scot-
land), against the appellants and others, praying for a scheme
for the better regulation and management of the charitable
trusts contained in the will of Mr. John Snell. This testator
was born in Scotland and educated at the Glasgow College
in the early part of the 17th century, and atterwards re-
moved to England, where he sequin d landed and other pro-
perty, and died is 1679. By his will male 1677, repub-
lished in 1679, he gave and devised his lands at Utfeton, in
Warwickshire( and r.ll his other lands to his wite and tour
other persons (whom he also appointed his executors), upon
trust, subject to debts and legacies, including a legacy of 001.
for the re pairs of the parish church of Li tfeton, to settle and con-
vey the residue to trustees to be named by the Vice Chencellor
of the University of Oxford, the Provost of Queen's, Master
of Balliol, and President of St. John's colleges in that uni
versity, upon trust that the produce and profits of the same
Snight be employed for the maintenance and education, in
some hall or college there, to be named by the void heads for
the time being, of such scholars born in Scotland, and each
of wham should be educated for two or three years in Glas-
gow College, as the said heads of Oxford coll
eges sh
profits
ould
appoint, not exceeding 12 at one ti unithe
and revenue of the estates devised for this purpose should
increase, so as to maintain a greater number. And the
will required that each such scholar should forfeit and pay
to such college or hall to which he should be admitted
5001. if be did not enter into " holy orders,""
in or if he ac-
cepted any spiritual benefice or "preferment England
or Wag s, it being the testator's will that every such
scholar should return to Scotland, " there to be preferred
or advanced as his capacity should deserve ; " and no such
scholar so to be dieted should tike any benefit from the
bequest above ten years ; end all such scholars st,ould come
to Oxford. recommended by let.ers under seal by the princi-
pal, pro euers, and agents a •he C...lege of Glasgow. 'the
will contained several provisions respecting those scholars,
but they are not necessary to be here stated. At the time
(1643) when the testator was a student in Glasgow College
the church established there and in all Scotland was the
presbyterial' church. At the date of his will and at his death
the episcopal was the established church in all Scotland as
well as in Eagland, where the testator was domiciled for
some years before his death. In 1690, after the presbyte-
rian church was re-established in Scotland, W information
was filed at the relation of the said heads of the
OxfordOxfrd
colleges before-mentioned against a Mrs. Guise,
heiress-at-law of the testator tlaimel his estates on the ground
that as episcopacy had failed in Scotland, and presbyterian-
ism was estedished, the gift for the charity became void.
The court, however, upheld the .31t, and in 1693 Lord
Somers, then Lord Chancellor, made orders for the regulation
of the charity, and the estates of Uffeton devised by the will
were by deeds vestea in the six senior fellows of Balliol Col-
lege upon trusts declared by one of these orders. Another
iatormation was filed in 173 e at the relation of the heads of
Glasgow College against the siz follows of Baliol and the
heads of the other Oxford colleges befor.-mentioned ; and by
an order of Lord Hardwicke, made in 1711, the
parties to that suit were directed to lay schemes
before the master for the administration of
the charity trusts.
Another order Cu made in that suit in 1759 by L
Henley for the management of the charity estates, and appliord-
cation of the rents and profits by Balliol College to the main-
tenance and education,of scholars, to the extentt of the amount
of
of such rents, &c. Other orders, increasing he number
scholars exhibitioners, were made in 1777, 1795, and 1810 ;
and at the time of filing the present informationl(lB44)
the euhibitionere were ten in number, having from 1501. to
2001. per year each from this charity, and they (the exhibi-
tioners) were not then, nor for many years before, required
to take " holy orders," so that in that and ether respects the
application of the charity funds, as alleged in the intorma-
tion, was inconsistent with the intention of the testator,
which was therein alleged to be to provide a supply of cler-
gymen educated at Oxford and canonically ordained to offi-
ciate in Scotland. The Vice-Chancellor being of that opinion
made a decree, referring it to the master to inquire whether
the scheme, according to which, under the orders of 1759,
1777, 1795, and 1810, the charity had been administered,
could be modified so as to make it more conducive
cotlan to the
supply of the protestant spiecopal church in Sd,
with fit clergymen, who having been born in Stland and
partly educated in Glasgow College and partly co
in Oxf
should exercise their clerical t unctions in Scotland, anhatd if
the muter should be of opinion in the affirmative, the
should approve of the scheme for the purpose,
, and his honour declared that the principal
and hods of the Glasgow College ought, in re-
commending scholars and in administering the charity,
to have regard to the circumstance that the testator was at
the date of his will—se appeared from the wording thereof—a
member of the established church of England and of the
then established church of Scotland, and, therefore, an
emscopalian protestant, 'lke. (See the report in 2 Collyer,
p. 665-714.)
Mr. J. Russell and Mr. Rolf (with whom wu Mr.W. Buller)
were heard for the appellants, contending that the decree
scrald not stand, ea it was ineonaideat with the oeden of
