Min Grace Say. of Uartley.hosite„near Dartford, the tes-
tatrix in the cause' bequeathed 1,0001. upon trust that the
dividends should be applied to the providing each of the
p,or inmates of the Dartford Won workhouse who should
I be above GO years of ads with one pint of porter, more or
Ice., according to the number. The Metairie died in 1841,
and the Mamma applied no the subject of the bequest to the
Poor Law Commiesioners, by whose they were informed
that under 4 and 5 William IV., C. 75, 'fictions 91, 92, and
93, it was not lawful to introduce herniated livers into any
enithurne, except by the direction of the rurpon or guar.
dins, or in conformity with the Wes of the Poor Law
Cummiernotten. The commiseionen, however, inUmat-d
that if the bequest was bell to be vent they would vivo
every facility towards carrying its object into effect. The
present information was thereupon filed at the relation of one
of the poor lew guardians to have the bequest establisbeed.
Mr. Animal, ant Mr. Hallett, for the relator, argued in
lawyer of the validity of the legacy.
The yien-Cluumullor asked It there could be an enactment

nudeelog it anlairini to give a poor person, above 60, apini
ef
Irtundell Palmer and Kr. 0. L Russell for the true-
tem, said %Mir clieuts were desirous of giving effect to the
charitable intention of the testatrix, as were also the parties
beneficially interested in the will, in the event of the legacy
failing to take effect. The Vise Chancellor sad that all that
was neeemary was to direct the fund to be applied aecordieg
to the intention of the ustatrix, so fez as it might be cowls-
tinily with the act of parliament, and that if there should
be a surplus which e3uld not be to applied, then it must be
applied in e•mo other way. It was not lidely that any diffi-
culty would arise if it were provided by the decree that
the fond should be applied to the purpose
tested by the testator, e 3 far m was coneittent
with the 9111, 92nd, and 93rd sections of the act.
The amount bad better be paid to the vicar, for the time
using, in order to be by him applied to the purposeediricted
by the will eo far as the mine might be done consistently
with the act of parliament. And in Use any difficult yor
impediment ehnuld Brie to this way of employing the divi-
dends lase tines must be liberty to apply to the court. That
would anew r every purpose. Ia the event of there being a
surplus it might be ectwidertd as a ey•prescompla.nce with
the int. ati .n of the testatrix to lay it out out in tea and sop,.
It had occarred to most persons, to send things of that curt
as little icdolgebei, a, which she peer might have according
to the rules. The costs of the suit up to this time, emwpt
of the bearing on both sides, mast be paid out of the *stamp,
and the eerie of tho he: ring must be born by each patty, the
