points on W hieh he had been called on to inter fere, one of Ix hich
was, to appiiint a Manager in the room of Mr. Tay liar ; and
the other, to nominate a prison to receive the rents and profiti
of the Theatre, and make the necessary disbursements. In the

deed of 1803 being altogether so contradictory in it, provisions,
that a Manager of his Lordship's appointment could not inter-
fere, by the irtue of the deed, and consequently, it would lead

and profits of the l'hcatre, his Lordship oberved, that if the
parties could point out to him how a person so appointed could,

any more of the business.
