KEATS V. KEATS.

Mr. J. Hughes moved in this case that a pending order be
made upon Mrs. Rebecca Garland, for the payment of a third
portion of the costs in the case which she had been decreed
to pay. I. May last an order was made for the committal
of Mrs. Garland for being concerned in the abduction of a
ward of court, but the order stood over, and Mrs. Garlard
was ordered to pay one fourth of the costa. She bad, how-
ever, neglectedvicom them.
Mr. Gill for Mrs. Garland, and opposed the
motion ; Mr. Longueville Gifford appeared for other
parties concerned.
The Vice-Chancellor said that it appeared to him that this
was not a case for a pending order, because there had been
no order yet made directing the payment of the costs in
any given time, and there had been no personal application.
He should now make an order for payment in three weeks,
and if payment were not then made application might be
made for a pending order.

THE QUM( r. HAMM

Mr. [Weill, Q.C., said a criminal information had bests
obteieed by Sir F. Kelly against the defendant, Mr.
Havens, who was one of the magistrates for Essex. He
(Mr. Eosin) understood that Sir F. Kelly bad not yet re-
tamed from Marseilles, and it wee the wish of both sides,
with their lordships' permission, that the rule might be
allowed to oome on as a motion on Sir F. Kelly's return.
Applimlion granted.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—Nov. 2.

Sittiop in Benco.—(Before Lord Met Justice Erie and
Justices Williams, Bytes, nod Keating.)

BRADLAVGII r. [Mr AFIDS.-THE Lamm AND THE POI/CE.

The plaintiff was • lecturer and writer upon religious
subjects, his views according to his own statement being of
an extreme kind. On a Sunday afternoon he was about
to lecture at Devonport, when the defendant, who is the
superintendent of police, interfered to prevent him, and
ultimately took him into custody for an assault. The plain-
tiff now claimed damages for false imprisonment, and at
the trial at Exeter before Mr. Baron Cherwell the jury
found for him with • farthing damages.
The plaintiff in person, to-day, moved for • rule
for • new trial, mid said that when the police interfered
he had only proceeded with his lecture to the extent of say-
ing, '• Friends, I am about to address you on the Bible."
This occurred in a field which be had hired, hut the police
removed him into the road, and told him he might go about
his business. He said "Then my business is to deliver the
lecture," and thereupon he was taken to the station, and
charged with an assault. The alleged assault was a push or
something of that sort, but his view was that the charge of
assault was an afterthought resorted to to protect the de-
fendant from the consequences of an illegal act ; and, in-
deed, the magistrates who investigated the matter, and also
the jury in this case, were of opinion that there bad been
nu assault. At the trial, Mr. M. Smith, the defendant's
counsel, in cross-examination, asked him (the plaintiff)
whether he was not the author of certain essays,
end his reply was that he refused to answer the
question, because in doing so he might subject himself to
criminal proceedings under • statute of Wm. 111. Mr.
Smith then, in spite of objection, read certain passages from
the writings, following each reading by the question, " Did
you write this?" It was sow submitted that the object of
this was to prejudice the jury, and that the judge ought
not to have allowed it. The judge commenced his summing
up by saying, " The doctrines the plaintiff has been die-
sentineling are much to he deplored," and added, that
though there was so evidence upon the point, they could not
doubt the character of the lecture about to be delivered. It
was submitted that he was wrong in making these state-
ments to prejudice the jury, when there was no tittle of
midterm' as to the character of the lecture. The judge alai
' directed the jury that the defendant was at the meet-
ing in his character of constable; but it was now
submitted that in that capacity be had no right to be
there at all. The last point was that the verdict was a
perverse one. It was proved that he (the plaintiff) had
paid if. 14e. for expenses immured before the magistrates,
mid he had been locked up from the Sunday until
the Mondry ; se that it was clear that his damages
should be more than a farthing. Another unfortunate cir-
eunistiuses was that hi Devonshire, were lee was compelled
to try, then wee a bitter feeling whist him ; and further,
it was probable that some of the jury were resident in
Davenport, and would have to bear their share of the casts
of the defendant, which it was arranged should be paid out
of the borough fund. His object in appearing in court was
sot unduly to press himself upon their lordships' notice,
but simply to assert the right of free speech, which had
always bean held so dear in England, and to obtain • fair
share of justice from another jury.
The Lord Chief Justice mid that they would speak to Mr.
Baron 4:human before giving their decision.
