CHESTER COUNTY COURT.

(BEFORE W. HARDEN, ESQ.)

This court was held on Wednesday, when no less than
128 cases had been entered for trial.
SAMUEL CLOUGH AND MARTHA HIS WIFE v. GEORGE
JONES, AND ALBION ROBERTS.--Mr. Evans, for the plain.
tiff, stated that the action was brought to recover the
sum of £2B, the amount of a legacy bequeathed under the
will of a lady named Tasker, who died at the advanced
age of 94 years. it appeared that various bequests had
been given to poor relations of the deceased, from 10
guineas and upwards, besides a legacy of £350 to Sarah,
the wife of Mr. Roberts, one of the defendants, who died
a short time prior to the executrix, and it was contended
that, upon those grounds, the amount did not become pay-
able, and consequently formed a portion of the residuary
portion of the estate, but Mr. Roberts had, nevertheless,
paid himself. Other bequests were in like manner given
in four equal shares to the brothers of a former husband,
and as the female plaintiff was one of seven children of
the eldest of these brothers, she claimed for her share
and another a doctor's bill which the deceased herself had
paid several years prior to her death. He was of opinion
that the allowance proposed by the attorney for the
plaintiff were very liberal, and after allowing for them,
and deducting from the paid account the legacy of '350
which had been illegally paid to Mr. Roberts, there
remained a sum of about £BOO to be divided among the
residuary legatees, which would give about £2B as the
share of Mrs. Clough, and he, therefore, entered a verdict
for that amount.l4
EDWARD BENNETT AND WIFE v. THE SAME.—The
female plaintiff in this case was also a descendant of one
of the four brothers of Robert Tasker, and the facts of
the case were therefore precisely the same. Verdict for
plaintiffs for .e 7, being the share of Esther Bennett as
grand daughter in the same ratio as the other case.
A QUESTION OF HORSE DEALING.—WAINWRIGHT v.
TEMPEST.-The plaintiff is a farmer, residing at Dunham-
on-the-Hill, and the defendant a livery stable keeper, of
Chester. Mr. Ford appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Tatlock for the defence. The claim was for the recovery
of a horse, or the value thereof, alleged to have been lent
to the defendant. Several witnesses were examined on
both sides, and the Judge, believing the story of the defen-
dant, that he had bought the horse, decreed in his (the
defendant's) favour, with costs.
RcatEaTs v. LARGE.—Upon this case being called on, the
following gentlemen were sworn on the jury—Messrs. John
Early, John Brewer, T. W. Pritchard, Thomas Davies, and
H. J. Rawlinson. The case appeared to excite the deepest
interest. Mr. Boyle' appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr.
Tatlock for the defendant. The action was brought to
recover the sum of £4O 6s 6d, under the following circum-
stances : —The plaintiff is a solicitor in Chester, and, in the
year 1850, was employed to defend Mr. Large, who was
indicted by the overseers of Tarforley, at the assizes,
for having embezzeled the local rates of the township.
A conviction took place, and Mr. Large was sentenced to
seven years' transportation, which was afterwards commuted
to four years' imprisonment. The plaintiff's bill amounted
to £lO9 6s 6d, tha whole of which had been paid excepting
the sum now claimed. The only question, therefore, was,
whether an agreement had not been entered into with Mr.
Roberts to conduct the defence for a specified sum. Much
evidence was given on both sides, after which the learned
judge summed up, leaving the jury to say to which side
they would give credit. Verdict for the defendant, with
costs.

Many cases were adjourned to the next court, the Judge
having to proceed on the following morning to Nantwich.
