LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.
JUDGMENT.-WILDING V. BOLDEN.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR. gave judgment this morning
in this petition, which was argued some time since, and
occupied the attention of the Court for several days. The
object of the petition was to get back the sum of 17,0001.,
which was alleged to have been taken out of Court by
collusion and fraud. The sum in question had arisen
from the property of a person named Lawrence, who
died at Virginia, in America. Certain persons re-
siding near Redditch, in Worcestershire, observing an
advertisement in Aris's Birmingham Gazette for the
next of kin of Lawrence, set up a claim there-
to, several other persons set up like claims to the pro"-
perty in question, and among the rest the present peti-
tioner, John Baker, on the behalf of his wife. After
considerable negociations between the parties, it was ulti-
mately arranged that the fund in Court should be divided
in seventeenths among the different claimants. Mr. Cres-
well, of Redditch, was the solicitor of all parties, and it
was stipulated that he was to have a seventeenth of the
fund, besides his bill of costs, for his trouble and exertions.
The fund was taken out of Court and divided among the
claimants, but in the interim Baker, who had hitherto only
supposed himself to be entitled to share equally with other
claimants, had been advised that he, in right of his wife
as sole next of kin, was entitled to the whole fund, and
set up a claim to that. effect. After several proceedings
the present petition was presented on behalf of Baker, by
Mr. J. Parkes, of Birmingham, his solicitor. Between
two and three hundred affidavitshad been filed by different
parties in the matter, and a great deal of contra-
dictory evidence had been adduced. His Honour went
through the facts of the case at considerable length, and
referred to many of the affidavits ; observing, in c,nclusion,
that he had considered a good deal what course the Court
ought to take with regard to the allegations in the peti-
tion that the wife of Baker was the next of kin. It did
not appear to his Honour that he was in a situation, on
the affidavits now before him, to decide that Betty Baker
was the person entitled to this property, neither did the
Court mean to say that it was clear the other parties were
entitled—that was a question for a Court of Law. The
Court also doubted whether the Crown might not be en-
titled. But upon the whole his Honour was clearly of
opinion that the allegations of fraud contained in the pe-
tition were totally unsupported by the facts, and that be-
ing the case, the Court felt itself bound to dismiss the
petition with costs.
