EQUITY COURTS.—YESTERDAY.
Bifrost Vremeinsecluna Betas Baum
Buret r. FOUII.—INJUNCTION.
Mr. Wigram and Mr. Daniell, for the plaintiffs, Sir Henry
Hervey B u* and Mr. Francis Ali:ander Damon, moved
for an injunction to restrain Mr. George Samuel Ford, the
defendant. ham sting out or enfraing execution upon two
judgments for 3,9001. and 4,0001. It appeared that Mr.
Robert Judas Clifton, who was the only son or Sir Juekea
Granville Csitton, while under age, contracted large
debts, and accepted hills of exchange to a con-
side:able amount. Betore the son attained his ma-
hoary an arrangement wee made by the family, by which
a considerable sum was placed in the hands of the family
solicirnr ter he payment el the 9011'11 debts. The defendant
(My F- rd) thin:sod to to laid under this arrangement the
martini of cerai:o -r sums amcunting to 6,5001, et-
c pted by the son during his minority, amt the solicitor pro-
, pearl to Fay 4.300/., being the money actually advanced on
he bills, and 10 per cent. interest, in full or all demands.
This sum was accepted, but aftermath, on Mr. Ford being
,/,plied to for fur. her a :vane.. by the son, then in confine-
Izetat for debt, Mr. Ford cone anted to do so if Mr. Clifton
(save him security, nut only (or the amount adt..need, but
' far the award ahandoned on the settlement with the family
solicitor, and for the sums expended by Mr. Ford in keep-
ing op life policies of in-uraoes. This was consented t
a sum of 4001. accordingly advanced by Mr. Ford, and the
judgments now in qoescion given by Mr. Clifton. After-
wards, in April, 10149, a dead was executed, whereby the
Clifton Had and Wilford writes were limited to the plain-
tiffs as trustet.s, and by the same deed a rent charge of
2,0001. par annum was secured to Mr. C Non. Roder a
power contained di this decd keno of 44,000!., it was stated,
bad been laded by way of m rapine.
Mr. Melina and Mr. Tout's* appeared for a Mr.
Siepbene, a solicitor, who bad been served with notice of
the :motion, having been present at one part of the teats-
action, hut took no part in the argument.
Mr. Jams Parker and Mr. Toiler resisted the motion,
upon the grounds that the trustees had no power to make
such a meth* ; that the execution of the judgments would
au affect the property of which they were trustees; that
over a coneiderable portion of the estate which was subject
to the mortgage, Mr. Clifton bad only an equity of redemp-
tion ; and that Mr. Pea had fairly stated all the facts of
the ease, which shoved that he bad incurred great liabilities
in oldie to serve Mr. Clifton in his difficulties.
After some dtiessaion, it wee agreed that Mt. Ford should
give an undertaking not to sue out execution on the judg-
meats, or either of them, against the estates, the trustees
undertaking to pay him within a fortnight 4001. with
interest.
The Vice-Chancellor observed that Mr. Ford had admitted
the facts with great fairness, but if a young man was to be '
resisted in his pro frigidity by peenniary advance., the maw
quanta might be 'early foreseen.

CARTIRLLa iinWLETT.-Tat: PALACII COURT.
Sir F. Theslger moved, pursuant to leave, for a rule to show
.ause why the verdict which bad been entered for **plaintiff
in this COS *mild not be o t aside, and the verdict entered
for the de•endaht. The cause was tried at Guildhall on the
last day of the sittirge be fore Mr. Justice Erle. It was an
action for money hat. and ',coital; the plea was never
roi.ebteel. The plaintiff was the protrionotary of the Palace-
s-turf, and the defend*: acted iut deputy-prothonotary, and
the action was brouSlat to recover certain fees, and the par
hailers of dentood, which ware somewhat unusual, stated
" that the action was brought to receiver the unease of fees,
pr .tits, and mAumects received by the defendant* deputy-
proilionotery tor a peri rd, the amount of which was stated,
and also f r an- Cher pea 4, the amount of which was not

charter of Charles 11., and there were to be three judges,
the Lord Steward, the Knight Marshal, and the Steward,
the tatter was generally a lawyer, who had power by
the charter to appoint a depu'y. The charter also provided
r the appointment of a prothoaotary, who was also em-
pews red to appoint a deputy. Sir Henry Campbell, who
was a genera' emcee, was appointed protheaotary.in 1792,
and was admitted, but never afterwards appeared in emelt,
or interfered in the app eintment of a deputy, so that the
matter was left pretty mush to the steward. An order of
the suet of 1812 was put in by which a Mr. Crucldey,
who h. Id the deputy iteutLuftuuery for mazy years, was
accused of inalpree ices, and suspended, and Mr. Hewlett,
the father of the de ardent, appointed, and con-
tinued to act until 1848, when be was onameded
