FRY v. FISKE.
This was an action of assault. The Plaintiff' is
a nsaster bargeman, and was employed to work
vessel down the river ; the Defendant was the pilot
on board, for the purpo•e of superintending her
navigation. On the morning of the assault,
Ph iu-
tilf went down to the vessel to get her under neigh,
hat found the author had already been hoisted by
order of the Defendant, who abu,ed him lii gross
terms for not haviag artived on board before,
Plaintiff said he eras quite in time, a• it oar rut
ye•t high water. The Defendant, this, re.
peate.l his foul language, and finally :.tittek the
Planutiff, knocked Inns down, and cantilutted tills
ill.iteaument until interrupted by some of the turn
oil board.

A vt•rdict was found for the I'lainfitt—l)zunagts

risaere 10. LIDDIARD.
This was all action brought by the assiviees of
the estate of B. M. Harvey and John Whittle
Harvey, bankers at Billericay and Rovhford, in
the county of Essex, to recover buck trioin the i)c•
leuslant 339/. in 1;118'k-flutes, the properly of the
bankrupt, which had come to his pos-ession sutose.
gut ot to the commission of the act tof hmizrupicy.
The short facts of the case were thh se :—On the
12th of May, Messrs. Haiveys to a gcntlt.-
ma n mauled Lade, residing at I%•est ry , to
discount a hill for their accommodation. Mr. Lade
applied to the Ashford Bank for this purpose, mid
received a promise that the dist:mint vlion:d be
given on the 17th of the same mouth. On thot day,
accordingly, a servant of Mr. Lade's received tl e
money. mid forwarded it by the Ashford coach to
Mr. Schofield, in the Boronoi, by wlioni it woos to
be delivered to the order of Mr. (.:ale. With this
order M esiSrS. farvey were provided, aid gave it
to the present Defendant, by whom, ou the lath
May, subsequent to an act of bankruptcy commit-
ted by J. W. Harvey (on the 17th) the money was
received.

The order in question having been given to Mr.
Liddiwrd before the act of banks ilptcy, the only
question for decision was. whether that circun,
stance did not entitle him to retain possession of the
nuoney.?__

Lord F.I.LENBoROUGH held, that us Ilie money
remained w the bankrupts till it i‘a. actually re—
ceived by the Defend.int, and HS it era• not rt.:vitt d
till after the act of biii.kruptcy of J. W. liar. e , it
must be considered as the property of his (Tedium,.
A verdict was in consequence found fur the
Plaintiff—Damages 3391. Costs 40s.

THE SAME r. eau:kr:TT.
This was an action brought by the same Plain-
tiffs aS in the last case, t 3 recover 1.(00/. which had
rime to the hands of the Definithitit, subsequent
to the act of bankruptcy, committed by J. W.
I larvey.
These were the circumstances of the case :—The
house of Crickett and Co. whoare baukers
ford, having, on the 9:2)1 of May, I sI4, notes of the
Billericay and Rochford Bank in their hands, to the
aniontit of 1,000/. our of the !no-Weis, Mr. Russell,
was directed to proceed to the house of Ka:lv:bottom
and Co. bunker; in London, where these notes at le
made payable, to get payment. On his at:livid
there, however, he was intornied that they could
not be paid there, but might be paid iu the cool
try. Mr. Russell immediately proceeded to the
house of Messrs. Esdaile and Co. who were tl e
town correspondents of his firm, and stated what
bail occurred. He was then inlOrined, that !Mess's.
Rainsbottorn and Co. still continued to pay small
parcels of notes for the Harveys, altlamgli they
would not pay the large demand in question. Ali.
Russell, it; consequence of this information, re.
quested the deck, who gave h:m this Intelligence,
to endeavour to get a portion of his notes cuslie(l.
This the clerk agreed to do, and succeeded. Alt.
Russell then ret urned to Chelinsfold, and on the SO a
day following was riding over to Mr. flurvey's honsi
to see if some arrangement could be made for
meta of the remaining notes i it his possession, a hen I e
met Daniel Whittle Ilarrea, the son (tithe elder Air.
Harvey, who ails nut connected with the hank, hot
was employed to assist in the adjustment of the
affairs, and who told him. notwithstailding toe mis-
conduct of his brother, that lie behei,ed his father
was aolveut. Ile further sisal, if Mr. Russi•ll woo
ed
meet liiin in London on the 'Tuesday 'mooing fol..
lowing, he would he able to arrange tire matter to
his satisfaction. Mr. Russell did meet him accord.
ingly, when Mr. D. W. Harvey delivered to him
bill of exchange drawn by a Mr. Wade on Ihw,a
and Dixon, in fivour of the elder Mr. Harvey'
alone, but for a debt due to the firm for 1,000/.
This bill was paid, and to recover the amount
thereof it was the present action was brought.
Upon the part of the DelCmlant, it was submit-
ted, that as this bill was made payable to the elder,
Harvey, who had not, at the tone of its being se..
ceived, committed an Act of Bankraqucy, and lame
been paid by him to the Defendant, he was entitled
to retain the amount.
