LAW INTELLIGENCE.—Nov. 9,

COURT OF CHANCERY.
(Before the Lord Chancellor.)
JOHNSON V. WEBSTER.

This appeal from the Vice-Chancellor Stuart was
opened yesterday.

Sir Godfrey %Itirobster, by a will dated in November,
1779, after charging his real estates at Battle Abbey,
in Sussex, with the payment of his debts, legacies, and
funeral expenses, gave to his trustees the sum of 6,0001.
upon trust to pay the same to his daughter Elizabeth
Webster, on the day of her marriage, and he directed
that until that event took place the 6,0001. should
bear interest at the rate of 5 per cent. The testator
further declared that if his daughter Elizabeth should
die unmarried, or, being married, should die without
leaving issue living at the time of her death, the said
sum should sink into the residue of his personal
estate, bequeathed to his son Godfrey. The testator
then devised his real estates, subject to the charges
aforesaid, and the residue of the
.personalty, to his
son Godfrey Webster. The testator died in 1780, and
when the estate was administered it was found that
the personalty was insufficient for the payment of the
debts and legacies, including the 6,0001. The legacy
to Elizabeth was not, however, raised out of the real
estate, and in June, 1786, Sir Godfrey Webster, the son
of the testator, by a settlement executed on his marriage,
released the estates from two sums of 1,0001. and
14,000/. secured for his own benefit, but left them sub-
ject to the charge of 6,0001. for the benefit of his sister
Elizabeth, who afterwards married hut died without
isue. The present suit was instituted by the personal
representatives of Sir Godfrey'Webster, the son of the
testator against the present baronet and his brother, en-
titled under the settlement of 1786, for the purpose of
having the 6,0001. raised out of the estates. It was
contended on their part that there was an absolute gift
of the money by the testator. The other side argued that
it was merely contingent, that there never was a charge
on the land, and that, if there was, there had been a mer-
ger in consequence of events. The Vice-Chancellor was
of opinion that there had been an absolute gift to Eliza-
beth, and he, therefore, directed the 6,0001. to be
raised by sale or mortgage of the estates of the present
baronet.

Mr. Bacon and Mr. Schoenberg supported this decree.
Mr. Malins and Mr. Pryor argued the case at some
length for the defendants.
Mr. Vincent appeared for the trustees.
Mr. Bacon replied.

Ills Lordship asked for the pleadings, and said he
hoped to give judgment in two or three days, and at
the same time to dispose of Ware v. Lord Egmont, the
appeal heard at the commencement of term,
