row-road, and threatening him that if he proceeded contrary
to each order the hou-es would be demolished by order of
the vestry, by virtue of the power, conferred on them by the
Metropolis Local Management Act. The plaintiff thereupon
went to his solicitor, who wrote to the vestry clerk,
asking him whether the vestry Intended to pro-

Mr. Malin and Mr. W. D. Event, foe thedefandante, sub-
mitted that the plaintiff had been too precipitate in filing his

The Vice-Chancellor said the plaintiff was called upon by
the defendant., the vestry of the parish of Paddington, to
makes communication between hie sewer in Spencer-street
and the larger sewer which runs along the Harrow-road, and
they insisted that dm plaintiff was bound to make ibis com-
munication. Upon the 4th of November the plaintiff had a
formal communication made to him of en order of the vestry
of Paddington, which directed him to illacentinse
the erection of the twelve houses until he had
made the communication with the sewer he the
Harrow-rood. Not only did they order him to &sonatinas
the building, but the osier was accompanied with a threat
that if the plasma proceeded contrary to the order the
vestry bad the power to come all the buildings to be demo-
lished, and to recover the expense of such demolition from
him. It was now admitted on the part of the dMandente
that the vestry had so power to compel the plaintiff to make
the communication between the two sewers, and it had bees

Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared
for the acconed, and a solicitor appeared for the complement.
The accused, oa being placed in the dock, seemed greatly
to feel the position she was placed in.
It appears that the accused is a lodger at the house in
question,arid that about three that morning an altercation
having aken place between her and the landlady, the com-
plainant came to the assistance of the latter when, by some
means, ebe got a severe wound on the forehead from a heavy
plated candlestick, used by the accused, which was of each a
nature se to compel her to seek surgical advice, and from
which she still appeared to suffer some pain.
Mr. Lewis raid be understood, from the gentleman who
represented the complainant, that she had no +lab to prose-
cute the WIC, as the accused would undertake to leave the
house, and, with Ms worship's permission, tke charge would
be withdrawn.

—The complainant's advor.ate said that there were medical
sad other expenses.
Mr. Lewis said he would undertake that the expenses of all
kinds sk old be paid.
The accused was then discharged.
