EQUITY COURTS.—JAN. 25.
(Before she Lords Jubilees.)
Its FIARNID.,4 BASZ.

This wo ar appeal from the Master of the Rolls.
In the oboe, matter the Master of the Rolla on the 12th
instant directed that an application of the official liquids.
tors fur en order fora call of VV. per share on the shares of
the contributories whose names were included in a certifi-
cate of the chief clerk. should stand over till the second
glitunlay iu the sittings after the present term. From
that direction the official liquidators now appealed and
'pled that the call of vv. might he made on all the eon.
tributorbe of the company whose names were included in
the crrwicate of th.: chief clerk, dated the 24th of July
last.

Hr. laelwyn, Q.C.. Mr. Cotton, Q.C., and Mr. Rektiwich
appeared for the official liquidator ; Mr. Ilaggallay, Q.C.,
Mr. Jeasel. Q.C., M. Turner, Mr. Swanston, Mr. Wood-
house, and Mr. Bush opposed the application.
Mr. Selwyn wua heard in reply.
Lord Justice Turner, after stating the terms of the
motion. said the f. rat question is whether the application
before the Neater of the Bolls ought to have been ordered
to stand over till the 9th of February. I have felt, and
still feel. considerable ilifficulty as to how this application
is to be dealt with. It is not the habit of the Court of
Appeal to interfere with the discretion which a judge,
whose orders are brought under its consideration, has
exercised when making the onler appealed from. The
great diff.culty in this case is to ascertain to what extent
the Mister of the Rolla has exercised his discretion in this
matter" He may have proceeded on the hypothesis that
at the expiration of the time dating which be postponed
the application he would he better able to form an
opinion ea to what order he ought to make ; and if we
wire eat' died that that was the ground on which be
proceeded, we should not. I think, be justified in interfering
with his discretion. On the other hand, the order of the
Masten tic the Rolls, as it stands, involves considerations
of very grs at importance. It involves the question whe-
ther. where claim to be taken off the list of contribu.
tories has been set up, the call which the official liquida-
tors propose to make on all persons who have been placed
on the list ought to be suspended. I think that the safest
course we can take is to deal with the order of the Master
of the Rolls upon the grounds on which we think he may
have roe aaled ; and, therefore, taking into consideration
all the circumstances of the case, I am of opinion that this
c..se is not one in which we ought to discharge the order of
the Master of the Rolls. I am the more disposed to that
view because half the time for which the postponement
was made has already expired, and I think it is not pro.
bable that any serious inconvenience will occur by the
suspension of the order for the call until the ilth February.
While, however, I decline to concur in any order to dis-
charge that of the Master of the Rolls, I must express
my clear and decided opinion that a call ought to be
made immediately on all contributories who have been
placed upon the list. The Companies Act, Ifel2, has pro-
dmmal result—creditors are precluded from enforcing
their legal remedies against the shareholders in these
companies after an order for winding up has been made,
otherwise than by proceeding under the act to wind them
up. It becomes therefore the imperative duty of the
court to exercise the powers given to it by the act for the
protection of the creditors, having regard to the position
in which they are placed by the act. When, as in the
present case, a large amount of debt is duefroui a company
of this description, it is not consistent with justice that
this court should decline to exercise its powers for making
provision for the payment of those debts at the earliest
possible period. A further consideration arising from that
state of things is this, what security has the legis-
lature given to creditors that funds for the
payment of the debts shall be forthcoming
None at all, except by means of a call. If a call be made,
it will operate as a judgment against the contributories.
The court ought to provide, if not for the actual pay-
ment of the debts, at any rate for their being in some way
, secured. This can only be done by means of a call. Then
I it was said with reference to the position of these share-
holders that they have made out a prima fade case to
hove their names removed from the list. But it seems to
me that they cannot justly complain of a call being made
upon them. Another reason in favour of that view of the
' came is that it does not follow that because a call is made
the court must necessarily sanction proceedings for at once
enforcing its payment. The parties may apply to the court
to suspend the enforcing of the payment of the call by
them, and on a proper ease being mole, the court would
do that. I think the right order to be made now is that
this motion should stand over till the 11th February, in
order that we way see whether the Master of the Rolls,
when the matter comes before him again, will or will not
make an order for a call. The remaining question is as to
the amount of the call which ought to he made. The court
is not yet in a position to determine that; but upon the
fame as they now stand before us, I think that a call of
4id. per share ought to be made. It is the first duty of
the coins to provide means for the payment of the
creditors. The question of the amount of the call will,
however, be in the discretion of the Master of the Rolls,
and I am content to leave it so, having intimated my
opinion upon the matter.
lord Justice Cairns said —ln the case of the Contract
Corporation we took occasion to observe upon the inconve-
nience which would result from our interference with
the discretion of the judge of the court below
as to the amount or time of making a call ; and
to what was then said I adhere. If there were
any question now as to the amount of call
which ought to be made, I should be unwilling to express
any difference of opinion from that of the Master of the
Rolls. I should be still more unwilling to interfere with
the discretion of • judge in the arrangement of the busi-
ness of his own court. But though the order under appeal
is only one for an adjournment, there is involved in it a
question of principle of some importance ; and I do not
think that the official liquidator was wrong in bringing
that question here by way of appeal. The principle in-
volved might just as well have led to the postponement
of the all for many months. The list of the con-
tributories of this company was settled on the
24th of July, and the ordinary time for object-
ing to it would have expired eight days afterwards.
A call ought to have been made at the earliest possible
period, and I concur with my learned brother that the pro-
posed call is not too large. But leave has been given to
some of the contributories to apply to have their names
removed from the list, and it is said that leave will be
given to others of them to make a similar application. I
am extremely unwilling to express an opinion as to the
success or failure of such cams ; but to attempt success-
fully to undo a transaction where the parties are in the
position of partners in a business actually being carried
on, and in respect of which profits have been divided, would
require considerable strength of evidence. From the
mere fact that leave has been given to a contri-
butory to raise such a cane, it cannot be said
that he has made out a prima facie one for
being removed from the list. But who are the
persons who are entitled to the protection of the court
while such a case is pending? First, there are the cre-
ditors. whose onlyprotection is that which they can obtain
from this court. The court incurs &strong responsibility
to creditors, and they might justly complain if there were
delay in realising the property applicable to the payment
of their debt,. But there are also the contributories to
be considered. They have a right to say this : that any
person who might have to share their burden should not
be allowed to put himself in a position in which he would
not be able to meet the liability imposed on him. If the
call be made, it will have the effect of a judgment ; and
that will be a security valet quantum to both classes of
persons. That is quite consistent with an application
being made by any contributory for the suspension of pay-
ment of the call by him, and I quite concur with my
learned brother in thinking that this motion should stand
over, and that nothing should be done until the matter
has again been before the Master of the Rolls

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE.
JAN. •Ll,.
(Before the Judge Ordinary.)
HANCOCK (FALSELY CALLED PEATY) C. PEATY.
EKTRAORDINART CASE.

After our report left yesterday,
Milts Harriet Hancoac, an elder sister of the alleged
warier. said the family consisted of seven daughters and
two sons. After the death of their father they went to
live with an uncle, with whom Mary Ann stayed six or
seven and twenty years. She left in September, 1862. At
that time her mind was very unsettled and bad. She
would sit in her bedroom all day, and would not come down
except to her meals. She said that the society was not
ht fur her, though it consisted of her uncle and sisters. She
would not speak to them when she did come down. She
said that some one had offended her out of doors,and
that she found it necessary to punish the whole family se-
verely. Her behaviour at mesh was very strange. She seemed
to be trembling with passion, and would strike her plate
with her knife so violently as to endanger its breaking. When
she went out in the carriage she would mutter to herself.
She wore her hair piled up on the top of her head, with
extraordinary ribbons on the top of it, and •
very crazy-looking bonnet. Her head-dress was a
quarter of a yard high, so that her bonnet did not touch
her face. When remonstrated with, she said, "All her
tendencies were upward." There was great difficulty in
inducing her to wash herself—she said she was too pure
to require ablution. She would sometimes go a whole fort-
night without • thorough wash. Once she bad • blister ;
and she saved the lymph from it in • little gaily-pot, ob-
serving that every particle of her was too precious to be
lost. She used also to save the combings of her hair.
The reason she gave for her solitary habits was that
she had problems to solve that were of great
importance alike to the family and to the country. In the
autumn of 1862 her conduct to her uncle worried him
so much that be resolved she should leave his house. She
bad, in fact, been very rude and ungrateful to him. He
told her that she must go to her sister, Mrs. James, but
that when she could behave better she might come back.
She only stayed with Mn. James for two or three weeks,
and then she went to the house of Mrs. Denson, a friend.
Soon after this witness found her in bed at her brother-in-
law's, Mr. Nun's, in Euston-square, with a inures from an
institution for the insane with her. Dr. Corfe attended
her. She was under restraint; Dr. Corfe had given the nurse or-
ders to sitby the door and not toleave heron any account. She
Was very much exhausted, and spoke very little. Understood
that she had ran away from Km Meson's. The mum re.

mained with her for about a week. She afterwards went
to the house of a cousin, Mr. Walter Hancock, where she
thought her food was poisoned. Asked her how that
could be, seeing that all the family partook of it without
injury? She replied that it was poison to her, though not
to others. Ultimately she went to the house of Dr.
Taylor, a friend of the family, where she lived up to the
time of her marline. She thought her food was poisoned
there. Her dress continued to be as eccentric as ever.
She used to tie skeins of Berlin wool in her hair.
They were of bright colours, which ohe said had a
meaning known only to herself. She said that
Dr. Taylor's pupils bad a plot to injure her. She
used to make drawings of bridges without foundations.
These she would stick up in various parts of the house,
RA she said, to teach the people something. Witness,
when she heard of the proposed marriage, remonstrated
with both the parties. Mr. Peaty said he could see the
state she was in, but it arose from her love to him. end
that she would be better when she became his wife. Was
present at the marriage. After the ceremony she said,
" I quite approve of the union between church and suite."
and congratulated the clergyman upon it. She then in-
sisted on driving down by Kensington church to hear the
bells ring. At the wedding breakfast she went up to Dr.
Harmer, one of Dr. Taylor's former pupil., end
gave him a kiss for himself, and another for his
father, remarking that be was " a jolly good fellow."
Before the parties went off by the train, her sister told the
respondent that be must not suppose she had married him
because she liked him—she had done it for a purpove.
They went to Scarborough. Saw her sister again three
weeks after her marriage. That was in Osnaburg-terrace.
She had put the lid of a saucepan round her neck, and she
said she had done it because she was afraid of being shot.
Mr. Peaty said she had run away from him to Brighton.
She went away in her wedding-ilrem. He sent his father
to bring her back, and he found her with a saucepan lid
round her neck. When his father brought her back to
London. he procured a nurse for her ; and be afterwards
' removed her to Dr. Sutherland's. She was removed to
St. Luke's in February last.
Cross-examined—The family would, of course, pay the
expenses of the present suit. In consequence of Mary
Ann's marriap, her uncle altered his will, and reduced
the legacy be had bequeathed to her. All her family con-
sidered her insane, but no steps were taken to prevent her
marriage—they did not know how to do it. After leaving
Dr. Sutherland's, and before going to St. Luke's, she was
under the care of several medical men, amongst others
that of Dr. Baker Brown. She was taken there to have an
operation performed upon her. That was with the know-
ledge of Mr. Peaty. Mr. Peaty afterwards complained of
it. Was never present when her sister Maria struck Mary
Ann.

Re-examined—Had remonstrated with her on her
haughtiness, and told her that they were the children of
the same father and mother, so that there could be no
difference of rank between them. She replied, "Oh, but
there is an individual aristocracy, and that is my case."
(Laughter.)
. . . .

B the Judge—The suit had been brought because the
family did not agree with Mr. Peaty as to the manner in
which she should be treated after her insanity had be-
come apparent.
Dr. Corte, of Nottingham-terrace, Regent's-park. gave
strongly corroborative evidence so far as he had opportu-
nities of seeing the alleged wife.
A woman named Glynn, with whom the alleged wife
had gone to lodge, in Little Albany-street, said that she
had asked witness to conceal her, and borrowed witness's
clothes by way of disguise. She begged witness to take
her to the Middlesex Hospital, but witness took her to Dr.
Code. The next morning she ran away. Witness was
quite frightened when she missed her, but at last found
her at her sister's house in Euston-square. Went to see
her after her marriage. She wanted Mr. Peaty to knock
a nail into the wall over a mattress on which she lay, in
order that she might hang a little tin oven over her head.
She called the oven her protector. (A laugh.)
Cross-examined—Had formerly worked for the family.
Dr. Taylor, of 139, Queen's-road, Bayswater, said that
he bad king been a friend of the family, but not its me-
dical attendant. The alleged wife's uncle had made a
large fortune by an indiarubber patent. Had always
thought her eccentric; but for six weeks after she came to
witness's house she wars rational as any onecould be. Then
for a week she was decidedly insane. These paroxysms used
to recur every four weeks, and with increasing force.
Once she got up in the middle of the night and went in
her night dress into witness's consulting-room. Then she
rang the bell. Witness, when he saw her, ordered her to
go back to bed, but she insisted on sleeping with Mrs.
Taylor, which she did. Once she said that if she did not
have medical advice she should be a crystal before morn-
ing. She used to recite poetry in an extravagant manner.
Thought she had a gift for reciting poetry. She used to
bet the names of medical men in her window. Three days
fore she was married witness saw her sitting in a bath.
She had then a blanket over her. There was no
water in the bath. She was looking at a draw-
ing which she had made of an arch resting
on lilies. She said that Mr. Peaty and she would
1. have to go under it when they were married.
Mr. Peaty used to visit her. Objected to his visits, be-
cause witness understood that his uncle disapproved of
the connexion. Told him three days before the marriage
that he believed his intended wife might become insane,
and warned him to be careful. lie said, " She's only
dying for me ; when we are married she will be all right."
Was talking to him for an hour on the subject. She was
very much excited at the wedding. She kissed my pupil,
Dr. Harmer, who had given her away. After the marriage
witness had given a certificate, in which he had said that
he bad observed "many other facts indicating insanity
during her six months' residence in his house." The night
before the marriage she was specially excited. She told
Mr. Peaty that she should wish him to promise to read the
Communion Service toher every night of their married life. He
objected to do so, and tried to divert her attention from
the matter. She grew very angry with him, and there
were high words. Witness thought the marriage would
not take place.
Cron.examined--Supposed it was law that a lunatic
could not contract a marriage, but was not quite sure upon
the point. Could not have done more to prevent the mar-
riage than witness did. There was no doubt that every
fourth week she was perfectly insane. Did not mean to
I say that the reciting of poetry was proof of insanity, but
she had a way of applying it to herself. There was a pas-
sage which ended,

the defendant throw away his ci,or. When the insp.,t,r
came up he saw none. Witness was interested in the
company, inasmuch as he was a large shareholder and a
director.

Yr. L. Lewis said Mr. Glitsenstein had taken a seat in •
first close carriage, and when Mr. Scott was coming in, the
defendant said to him, "Do you object to smoking r and
when he found he did, he got out and went into another
ca and threw away his cigar. Mr. Scott followed
him, obtained bin name, and summoned him. This was
not one of those aggravated cases where a person persists
in smoking after he had been requested to desist.
Inspector Crab said the company bad had so many com-
plaints about the nuisance of smoking in the carriages,
that they were determined to put • stop to it. He was
therefore directed to ask for a conviction on the present
occasion.

Su .Phillips said it was a very great nuisance to a
number of persons to be in carriages where others were
smoking. He did not feel that the defendant bad done
anything wrong beyond smoking in the carriage, and the
case did not therefore require • heavy penalty. It was
well that the public should know that any one smoking in
a railway carnage was liable to a penalty of 40s. The
prevent was not • bad cue, and he thought that public
justice would be satisfied with a fine of ss. and costs.
Alderman Copeland said he wished Mr. Scott would im-
press upon his brother directors the necessity of compel-
ling every one who smoked to leave the carriage. They
would soon put a stop to it.
Inspector Crab replied that they had not the power of
doing so unless they persisted in smoking after being
cautioned.

►ldcrman Copeland hoped the directors would instruct
all their porters to caution the smokers, and that would
put a stop to it. He had been compelled to give up going
by the line on account of the smoking in the carriages.
Mr. L. Levy said that some time ago a petition had
been presented to the directors to put on smoking car-
riages morning and evening for the convenience of those
gentlemen who smoked and went regularly by the line. If
they would do that it would give very great satisfaction
to the public and the officials of the railway, but the direc-
tors would not do it.

The fine and costs were paid.
CLERKENWEIL.

Mr. Henry Bart, the proprietor of the Raglan Music.
hall, Theobald's-rood, Gray'einn-road, appeared before Mr.
Barker to answer two summonses charging him with having
performed stage plays without the necessary authority.
Mr. Montague Williams, barrister, attended to support
the complaint ; and Mr. Poland, barrister, attended on
behalf of the defence.

Mr. Williams, in opening the case, said that this was a
summons taken out under the 6th and 7th Vic., chap. 6s,
and this case was very similar to that lately beard awl
decided by Mr. Tyrwhitt in the case of the Alhambra, but
with this difference, that at the Alhambra there was a
harlequinade but no oomio opening, but here there was a
comic opening as well as the harlequinade. }Living stated
the facts as will be found in the evidence, the learned
gentleman said that this was a roost flagrant case, and he
had therefore to ask the magistrate to inflict the full
penalty. The learned gentleman then called witnesses in
support of his case.
Mr. Poland said be was bound to admit that this case
went further than that which Mr. Tyrwbitt decided List
week. There was nothing to be designated as a plot, but
there was a dialogue. As soon as Mr. Hart heard of these
proceedings he at ones stopped the performance, and if
the magistrate should rule that the piece complained of
was illegal, he would never again perform the piece. AU
that Mr. Hart bad done was to perform an innocent piece,
and he was not aware that ho was infringing the act of
parliament,
Mr. Barker said he had no doubt of the illegality of per-
forming the piece complained of, and Mr. Hart would
have to pay a penalty of 20/., including coats. There would
be no penalty in the second case, as that summons he
supposed would be withdrawn.
Mr. Williams withdrew the second 'summons.
