LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.

COMPENSATION-LONDON BRIDGE.-BROWN V. CHILD.
The plaintiffs in this cage are the tenants for life of
two house, Nos. 5 and 6, in Fish-street-hill, which in
consequence of the new London Bridge it Las become ne-
cessary to pull down. At the death of the late tenant for
life, which took place in Sept. 1E329, the leases of the
present occupiers expired. They, however, continued in
possession of the premises. The London Bridge Com-
missioners gave them notice that the premises were wanted
for the purposes of the new bridge, and they then put in
a chilli for compensation in consequence of the loss they
would sustain in being obliged to leave the premises. The
property being under the controul of this Court, a
reference was ordered to the Master to inquire what
sum ought to be demanded from the London Bridge
Commissioners for the interest of the freeholders in the
premises. The finding of the Master, upon being laid
before the Commissioners, was rejected by them as most
exhorbitant, and it was ultimately determined that the
claim should be referred to a Jury. The Commissioners,
however, had thought it right to award the sum of
4001. to Mr. Green, one of the tenants—the claim of Mr.
Chatfield, the other tenant, was unsettled. The present
petition was presented (the matter shortly being expected
to come before the Jury) praying, among other things,
that the solicitors of the tenant for lite of the freehold,
who were entitled to the compensation, should have the
management of the matter before the Jury, in the place of
Messrs. Sanders and Cummings, the solicitors of the
trustees ; it being alleged that Mr. Sanders had acted as
the solicitor of Mr. Green, one of the tenants, and in

that character supporting the rights of the occupiers to
a cl►im for compensation which would, of course, go in
r. duction of the claims of the plaintiffs. The two charac-
ters therefore they would hold would be inconsistent, for
they never could turn round upon themselves and say that
the freeholder always was entitled to compensation.

Mr. HORNE and Mr. ELLisoN appeared in support a

the petition.
Mr. KNIG HT, • who was Counsel for the Trustees, con-
tended that all that had been done by Messrs. Sanders and
Cumming was fair and honourable. Mr. Sanders happen-
ing to meet Mr. Green going down to the Commission,
and accompanied him, in consequence of his requesting
him to do so, he being utterly ignorant of the claim which
he had set up for the sum of 4001.

The VICE-CIIANCELLOIt observed there cool! be no
doubt of the high respectability of Messrs. Sanders and
Cummings. The affidavit whit tolley had made, and
which was destructive of their case, left no doubt
of their integrity ; but it must be remarkel that
the highest of all authorities had said, that "No

tnan could serve two masters." Prom the evidence

it appeared, that Mr. Sanders had expressed an opi-
nion that the freeholders were not entitled to any
compensation for good-will. His Honour thought that
was a misconception. Mr. Sanders having wrongfully,
though conscieriCously, given up the interest of the
freeholders, the Court thought it was but fair and
proper that some other person should undertake the case
of the plaintiff before the Jury. The tenants ought to
have quitted the premises immediately upon the death of
the previous tenant for life. The prayer of the petition
mu,t therefore be granted.
