LOCKE V. THE tumor OF NORWICH.

This very important. cause, for which Mr. Serjesat
Vinighan we. specially retained, came ou about ten o'clock.
Only three special jurors answering to their names, a i•les
was preyed. With Mr. Seijes.at .Viingbau were Mr. Rsibia.
son and Mr. Rolfe. Serjeaats Bb sett and Frere, and Mr.
Storks, were the Counsel fur the Wroclaw.
Mr. Busse °prised She plehdiop, which stated that Dr.
Locke was seised of the Rector] of Hilimy, otherwise Hein
gay', in this county; but Shot Dr.'Hewlett, who was the real
Wendt's!, had Its en Warted by the Crown, ou She ground.
that Dr. Locke had Best sicoontscally ((besieged the living,
thew had sononiseally sold it, sod had by like means regained
possession, all which the Moamar denied, sad thermion
issue was denied.
Mr. Serjrnot Bcorernssid th‘ Counsel for the Plaintiff
had opened the ',leathers, as it seal called, hut it was neces-
sary that he should repeat them, as it was for him to
prove the charges contented In them. The case was our of
the greatest importance, as retaliog to a living of very
considerable amonet, and as concerning deeply the interests
of morality, referring to what he did not hesitate to
call a 'profligate traffic is ecclesiastical sud spiritual affairs.
By • sletute of the 31st Elissboh, it was provided that if
any perm)* fur any snm or reward, or promise of rewind or
benefit, directly or indirectly made, should corruptly collate
ur present to any benefice, every such collation or peirseata.
toe was declared void and of atone effect, and it was lawful
fur his Majesty sod hie heirs for ever to present the omit turn
of that living, soli the person committing the act of simony
should forfeit double the value of the heuefier fur one. year,
and should be ever after incapable of holding it himself.
This Act did sot however extend to the tight to preseut to a
Imago which might bcleug to a layman ur a chnichmaal to

cotporations or to individuals. Tba low Said that re,4o/18

the result of the transaction between them was that they da. '

Don should be thus sold fur a larger sum than was asked, and
-then that the exchdage of two liming' of unequal value should
ri have been agreed epos as a eepirsteAned distinct act. The
dui, must consider the whole as one entire sad connected

Mania Janos." 13;10111,4W Dr. Locke presented to Hills,'
Ma Astol3lll of February, 1816.
Kesneser adaancedio a transaction still more-pregame with
.corruption and shame. They bad under the baud of Kr.
Boyle himself the deed of release conveying Hilgayt to Dr.
Locke for 12.0001' ad in June, 1816, Dr. Locke sold it again
for• 35,0001. to Mr. Cradock. It was impossible that he
should limpid the mall sum of 11,600/. as a simple con-
aideiatiort fur rtie aderowson, and.thst the ',drowse,. was
merely collateral; and thou that be should sell it fur 25,6004
Without an intratiou of immediately piesentieg to it. The
only consistent 'arippasition war, that his object was to lute
a peony, mid to gaM something by trading in spiritual Willis
as if to Hocks of sheep. Bet Crolock did actually get pos-
session ion a few days, and therefore they nowt either suppose
that simnel was committed, or that Dr. Locke took such a
liking to Mr. Cradock, an utter a ranger, that be gave up
the les ing in I few dive as • Mere act of friendshrp. But the
mature of the agreement between Dr. Locke and Mr. Cradork
was as strange as was ever beard ion Court of 'goyim. It
ran, that is consideration of the sum of 25,0001. the right of
presentation was to be conveyed to Mr Cradock ; Isset in
cam the payment was not made before the 6th of August fol-
' lowing, Mr. Cradock was to forfeit the sum of 20,000/. as
liquidated damages, over earl sbuve the purchase money.
And it happeued most wonderfully, that Dr. Los ke, having
sold the living with a life.inierest upon it, slamild And his
health would wet allow him to live there, but on the very
day when this agreement was made, should be obliged to
travel with Mr. Cradock post-haste to the Bishop of Nor-
wich to save himself from a liver complaint. He gut a
letter written by a physiciau to the Bishop, which stated
that the writer had kuown Dr. Locke for tweuty yearn,
having practised at Farnham, Surrey, where he resided,
and that he had been formerly subject to au •ffectireu of the
liver, which had returned a few months before, which he
attributed to soosedriog peculiar in the sir of that part of
No. telk where the Doesor resided, and therefore had en.:
'rested him Brit to moat,' there if he voluted his health. It
was signed J. Jackson. Dr .Locke then resigned the
which he bad no oecasioo to do, for hr might have appointed
• curate. Everyone wholtnew the mild and indulging Pall-
iate of this diocese, most be coeviseced that lie would have
said if .11. application bad been made, " appoint a curate."
But Dr. Locke makes this letter a prettied focelivieli away
a living of 1,4001.• year (or life, to a Mere 'dragger. Ala the
100 of June Mr. Craduck was Instituted ill the living. AuJ
Aerobe rattled on &mother pail of the affair. Dr. Locke, he
awed mot disguise it, as it was well known, had beat Made a
bankrupt, having beam eugaged is meet-moils trainnesloos,
unconnected with the trading in *orders. It Mowed out '
that Cradock was just such soother. 0e the I Ills °Mete,
the day after his institution, Mr. Cradock was made a bank-
rupt, and on the 6th of July emoted as a airtime-dealer.
Dr. Locke had taken from bin • warrant of attorney, eon.
feristog judgment fur the 45,0001. nut to be entered up WI the
6th of August ; but it was entered up on the 6th of July,
0,, the 6th of August he wrote to him in these terms--
(and here be would observe, that he knew not that his
Learned Friend intended to make Craduek'v character ap-
pear ; but this he would say, that however lead he might he,
be uud. rook to prove Dr. Locke's a degree worse.) The
letter ran thus :
" Sir—ln comequence of what passed between us yester-
day, 1 will sospead the proceedings against you, as I prefer
peace to hostile m eeeee and endeavour to get you this
presentation to an angunimited pespeival curacy, it I may
rely upon your honour le take it, and on couditioa that pea
will abaudon the contract."
This part of the business was more disgraceful to Dr. 'Ache
than any thing they could alien aigainat Mr. Cradock, for if
they held him to be • rogue, what was to be thought of diet
attempt to get such a man into the church?—But whet was
the contract alluded to ? If it was honourable. Dr. Locke
• was not hurt by any thing that bad passed ; fur he had not
parted with the &dyne/sun : by the teems of the ags cement he
was not to do so till the money was paid. He might have
kept the living, and sued Craduck fir the 20,0001. damages
• (as lie did afterwards), which no Court could serail, lien.
But Dr. Locke was not content with enteriog sip judenient
for the 25,0001. ; he also held Mr. Craduck to bail fur
! 20,000/. penalty, Mr. Cradock bring all this time ouly is
possession of the Living, as Dr. Locke would lease it ap.
pear, by volution), pre...widow. Mr Cradock was taken
tut prison ander the arrest; bat the cruel permeation did not
end there. It turned out that Mr. Crradoek' swore before
the Cummiseioseis of She bankruptcy, that he had sever
administered to the affairs of a woman who was his
sister, under another liamn—a ciicountauce which had
nothing to do with ibis living. But Dr. Locke had
him taken out of arrest for debt, and imprisoned un
as indictment for perjury. He even went further, lie took
out a sequestratien of the living for the 25.000/. which
was executed on the 261 b of August, and having climes
that innerly, went on persecuting Mr. Craduck, into a n-sig-
nstioa. This brought him to the third sinionimal arm-
went. Mr. Cradock resigned the living to save %bawl(
from these multiplied persecutions, which lie was tires lei
msdiersleild would be relinquished tlseireupou, sad to fart
Vary were abaudoned; and Dr. Locke; whose health butt
*foie presented his retaining the living, agais presented
himself to it on the /7th of August, 1812, The Learned
/Irritant then proceeded to observe that the Crows hint(
thought itself bound to defend Dr. Hewlett's right to the
bring on the simple ground of Mummy, with a view to isper
holding the sanctity of the church, though they toned/
have bail sufficient grimed for defence in the lapse of Nam

hoped the Jury would be satialled that the Crown had dine
