VICE•CHANCELLOR'S COURT, liNcoLleo•Txx,

EssnAr, Aran. Q.

us the mailers of DRYDEN and HERSCAT'S
Charities. _

Mr. Btexicrtstairtr stated, dr& was the Petition
of the trustees of Dryden 's Charily, praying that
they might be allowed to apply part of the foods
of Herbert's Charity to the rises of the formes,
under the following circumstances :—A Mr. Dry-
den. in the year 1709, resist! the George lan, at
NMI Ilu in 11l nil. in trustees fur the so ite ort a u :4010.0,
where the pour boys of the owls .rie I
ed and educated. The tru.tees soul the Gemge
Into, and vested the produce of the rule in the
three per cents. which only produced 401. per
annum. Herbert's Charity was devised to the
trustees of Diyden's Charity, for the purpose of
putting out the boys apprentices who were educated
at the school of the latter, by paying • premium
of 71. with each boy, and also to give the boys at
the expiration of their apprenticeship 10/. each.
The trustees had distributed the funds of Herbert's
Charity as directed by the donor, until that Court
bad interfered by its order, directing that they should
pay a premium of 201. with each boy apprenticed.
The funds of Herbert's Charity had accumulated
to is considerable amount on account of the poverty
of the. funds of Dryden's Charity, which was not
sufficient to pay u master fur the education of the
poor boys, much hers to clothe diem. The coolie_
queues was, that there were no boys clothed and
educated under Dryden's Charity, which made it
impossible to curry into effret tire intention of the
docrotalf flerhereatliarity, to apprentice nut boys
efuthed tend educated there. What he (the Learned
Counsel) had to ask of the Court was, that tie
trustees might he allowed to apply part of the funds
of Herbert's Charity to the use ofDryderi's.

The Vice-CHAscEttort—" 'This is a new and
important case as it relates to charities. I think
the Attorney-General ought to be served with the
Petition. its the rights of the Cotton may be inter-
ested in it, for if the school cannot be maintained,
there will be tie poor boys to apprentice out. Let
the Attorney-General be served, and the Petition
stand over until that is done."
