NEALE V. NEALE.

'rids bill was filed for the purpose of compelling the
defendant to suffer a recovery of a copyhold estate in Glou-
cester, worth about 1001. a year, and to restrain the de-
fendant from proceeding with an action of ejectment.
It appeared that on the 14th of May, 1747, the copy-
hold estate, which comprised the land in dispute, was sur-
rendered to the use of Joseph Neale, who was the grand-
father of the plaintiff and defendant, for the term of his
life, with remainder to his wife, Mary Neale, with remainder
to the use of her heirs.. Joseph Neale died in 1754, and
left an only son James, who, upon the death of
the widow was admitted as tenant for life. James
Neale, by his will, devised his estate, expectant on
the death of his wife, Unity, between his two sons, the
plaintiff and defendant, in fee to them as tenants in com-
mon, their heirs and assigns. He died about the year
1800, when Unity, his wife, took possession, married .a se-
cond time, and she and her then husband were ad-
mitted under the will of James Neale. Unity died
in September, 1820. On the Bth of February, 1821,
the plaintiff and defendant were admitted as tenants in
common in fee, and entered into an agreement for a par-
tition of the copyhold. It was said the father could not
make the will, because he had never come into possession
of the copyhold, and that therefore the defendant Joseph,
the eldest son and heir, would have been entitled. At
the time their mother Unity married, she quitted the house,
and left it, with the furniture, in the possession of the
plaintiff and defendant, her two sons. Among the furni-
ture was a desk, in which were a number of papers. The
two brothers entered into partnership as dairy farmers, and
lived together. In July, 1809, the partnership was dissolved.
and by an arrangement made between them Joseph became
sole tenant of the house. In 1821 the plaintiff came to
reside with his brother, and in the year 1828 the papers
were removed by the defendant's wife from the desk into
a chest of drawers in another room. The drawers were
never locked ; and in the beginning of 1832 the defendant's
son had the curiosity to look out some of the papers, and
discovered a deed, which he communicated to his father.

who could not give them much information upon it. In
September,lB32, the defendant took the deed to his solicitor,
who at once saw that an entail had, been erected, under which
if not barred, the defendant was entitled. The Court rolls
were searched. It was found that it had not been barred,
and an action of ejectment was brought by the defendant
to recover the other moiety. Under these circumstances,
the bill was filed by the plaintiff.

manners, and real goodness of heart, was introduced to

the cheerful and affable Monarch, looking at his hair,
which was almost as white as the newly-fallen snow, jocosely
exclaimed, " White at the main, Admiral ! white at the

His Grace the Duke of Devonshire has in his
possession, at Chatsworth, a very curious and ancient relic,
the identical rosary which belonged to and was used by
Henry V 111. This piece of antiquity is secured in a large
glass ball ; the beads appear to he of a kind of Brazilian
wood, hard and shining. There is also a novel piece of art
in a beautiful glass over a door in one of the drawing-rooms;
a quill in wood carved by Gibbons, which is supposed to be
a chef-d'oeuvre ; the downy part is a capital specimen of the
art, and to the casual observer passes for a real feather.--

On Thursday afternoon a girl of the class calk",
" unfortunate," who frequently in the midst of their vice and
profligacy display much good feeling and virtue, was waiting
at the Thames Police-office with several other girls of the
town to hear the result of the examination of Charles Allen,
a sailor, who was remanded on a charge of being concerned
in a very extensive robbery of silks, tea, and rice, on board
the Aurora, in China. On hearing the result, the girl, who
was quite a stranger to the 'man, volunteered her services to
procure some refreshment for him, on hearing him call out
from the lock-up that he had not eaten or drunk anything
all day, and laid her child, an infant of about four or five
months old, on the seat in the outer office, requesting the
seamen and others, who were standing about, to look after
it for a few minutes. She soon returned with bread, meat,
and coffee for Allen, the sailor, which he very thankfully
received from her hands. She
e, thanden loono oneked on thent could
e seat for
her child, but found it was gon pres
give her any account of it. The olive watermen, and
130--ce,
others, told her some person was having a " lark" with her
believing that was really the case ; but no one making their
appearance with the child, the poor creature became almost
distracted ; she sought in all directions for her infant, but
without hearing any
tidings of it, for upwards of two hours,
and her lamentations and anguish were most distressing.
Soon after four o'clock, after running about the neighbour-
hood in nil directions, apparently unconscious of what silo
was about, she returned to the office, and asked if her child
had Imen found. On being answered in the negative, she
rushed into the street and soon disappeared. The authors
of such an unfeeling "lark," if the child has not actually
been stolen, deserve the severest reprehension and punish
ment. It is to be regretted that no one informed Mr. Bro-
derip, the sitting maeistrate, of the circumstance, for his
well known humanity would have prompted him to have
