PRINCIPAL AND ACIENT.

IN CH/INC:BAY. .
LORD SELSLY AND OTHERS V. RHOADES..

-------
COPT OF THE VICE-CHANCELLOR'S JUDGMEST, PRO.
NOtiirCED 19th JIiXE, 1824.
This, in point of principle, is an extremely important case.
There are general dicta upon the subject of the. principles
which apply to the relation of steward arid employer, but in
point of direct authority
there is very little to be found on the
eubject.
This is a Bill filed by the present Lord SsAsey (and certain
other persons claiming under the 81n:es:it-dement) for the-pur-
pose, of ayoiding a Idase granted to .the defendant, illr.
Rhoades: This lease was granted in pursuance of an agree-
ment made, I think, as early as the year,lBo3 or 1804, but was
not actuallygranted until the year 1809, though Mr. Rhoades
had taken possession, pursuant to the original agreement, at
Michaelmas 1806 ; and the grounds upon which this Bill
seeks to avoid thelea.si: elm Mr. Rboades's conduct
in obtaining this lease was inconeteeent with those principles
which belong to his situation ~eLttexerd , tete jet ; et:la
next; 'upon the ground that ffiieleifiTilspeosd upon ft:ego-a',
es not bring a full and valuable :onside:ref:kw.
Having smell that this case is a ease' of much importance, I
have theught it necessary to commit my Judgment to writing,
in order that the principles upon which I proceed noisy not be
misunderstood ; and I will therefore take the liberty to read
itnogtltteo Illnaerta w
hatriattbesn J
oluudgtepnreice:iistiounp-on this
wasnecesuaubjecry,t
i;niotrdaeprnteittar;
there may be no misunderstanding! any where as to the princi-
ples upon which I proceed.
I begin by stating :—ln this ease it is necessary to explain
clearly the principles upon which my judgment proceedi.
There is no rule of policy which prevents the steward. front be-
ing a Lessee'under his employer ; there is no rule of policy
which prevents the steward from receiving from the bounty of
his employer a beneficial lease ; but where the transaction pro-
ceeds, not upon motives of bounty, but upon contract, then the
steward is bound to make out that he gave the full consideration
which it would have been hit duty, as steward, to Obtain from
a stranger : and where the transaction is mixed with motives of
bounty, then the steward is bound also to make out that the
employer was fullteinformed of every circumstance respecting
the property which either was within the knowledge of the ste-
ward, or ought to have been within his knowledge, which could
tend to demonstrate the value of the property and the precise
measure and extent of the bounty of his employer. This doctrine
may perhaps he considered as comprised in the general inasim,
that the steward, dealing -xith his en:player, shall derive no ad-
vuntage from hie situation as steward. The employer may. if he
pleases, treat with his steward, preferably to any other person,
and this preference is a bounty ; but the steward cannot take
advantage of this preference unless he fully imparts to his
employer alt the circumstances of existing competition.
It is said in this case. that the defendant obtained an agree-
ment for the Lease in question three -years before the expire-
". tiou of the subsisting Lease, with a view to prevent the com-
petition which be expected from the occupying tenant.. If this
were establiihed in evidence, there would be an end qf the care.
It appears, on the contrary. by parts of the answer of the de-
fendant, which have been read by the plaintiffs, that in or
abOnt Michaelmas, 1803, Mr. Boner (one of the executors of
Mr. Thomas Holman). applied to the defendant for a new
Leatteof the farm, for the widow or son of Thomas Holman,
~ and that the defendant observed, that he thought. Lord Schley,
(namely, the late James Lord Selsey), would not grant a new
Lease without a valuation, and that Mr. Barrer answered,
that a valuation was not necessary, as the farm was worth no
more than the then present rent ; and that the defendant
replied, whoever took the farm must take it on a new valua-
tion ; and that the defendant afterward stated Os James Lord.
Selsey what had passed between him and Mr. Barter.—And
inasmuch as the original lessee William Holman had died
without leaving any fathily, this application by Mr. Boner
suggested to the defendant, that there could be no impropriety
in treating himself for this farm and that. at the same time,.
when he stated to' Ltird 'Select- wllieet-tratt-passea -betweeri Mtn
end Mr. fatter, he (the defendant) applied to Lord Selsey to
have the preference of the farm for himself ; to which Lord
Selzer consented.
It is said further by the plaintiff"; that -between the time of
the defendant :leveeing for the Lease and his actual possession
of the farm under such agreement, a formal offer hail been
Anode to the defendant by the executors of Mr. Thomas Ml-
to,ekiee an itteretwil rent of,bllol, o,,,yearroinct .that ,this

rirtirr:W7 Nr7-lersTirt;e fact, it might be
tpleasinnable in principle. that it might be extremely ques-
; imitable in principle, whether, if there were an agreement
concluded, consistent with those principles whist, apply to the
relation of steward and employer, whether after that agreement
is fairly concluded, the at:Ward svaa bound to make communi-
cations, when -he had an equitable title of what bail mine-
quenily pasaed.. 1 do not decide that'point ; I say it might be
questioned on principle, provided it were true in fact; but the.
,hats Flo net maintain this proposition. Dennett and
CaTipard. two of the trustees under-Thornai holm ui's
will, do*. indeed,' state in evidence, that in February,
1,80.1, they sent a letter, to the defendant, making a formal
offer of 500/. a year for the farm, and that they were at.
terWards told by Mr. Foster (their ILIUM at Amberley)
that he had delivered such letter. to.. the defendant.--
Thia declaration of Mr. Foster is not . evidence ; but if
it were' so, the fact is immaterial ; because Itfr. Barrer,
the, other trustee, swears, that before this letter wag written, he
-hod, hisser f; seen James. Lord Selsey, and had made him
(Lord Selsey) an cli:r of 509/. a year.* When Lord Selsey,
therefore, confirmed the agreement with the defendant, by
permitting him to take possession of the farm, he was fully
aware of this O'er of 5001. a year, and it appears by Me evi.
dente of many letters, that in consequence of 31t. Boater's
offer, the defendant proposed, either to give up hit agreement
nito,etkr, or to submit to arty new valuation tehiM Lord &Ivy
slufdd Mink fit to direct, and that Lord Selsey, expressing a
'narked confidence in the judgment and integrity of Mr. Eager,
determined to abide by Mr. Eager's valuation.
The point, however, which seems now to 'be insisted upon
by the plaintiflis is, that Mr. Eager, who valued the .Farm on
the part of James Lord Selsey (at a rent which the defendant
agreed to give
.for it) much underrated the value of the
Right 4 of COMM% which belonged to the Farm, and that
the defendant's agreement tails fur :.,,ant of a fair and ade.
ghats consideration.—lt appears in evidence., that in the
management of Lord Selsey's estates, during the Agency
4th this defendant, it was the habit when a Lease was about
to. expire, to have the Farm
.valiteti, and to re-let it at the
re-valuation ;'and that Lord Selsey employed three different
Surveyor. on such valuations, Mr Roger, Ifs. Poranee, and
tlirilugwAY kEnl eryl.—Wheti Lord Salty consented that
the'sletent s.rit mould have Athberley hart,. it onearea by one
of Lord' Selacy%: letters+, that he

When the kclosure tat place in lillu, Ole Copyhelders main-

the present case? It is not, and cannot, upon the evidence, be
contended here, that the defendant had any other knowledge of
the rights of commor. appurtenant to this Form than was corn-
minucated to Mr. Eager by Mr. Foster, br that be (the defend-
ant) could, by any means, hive orabled Mr Eager to come to
any more certain conclusion as to the result of the dispute with
the Copyholders. The proportion of rent to be fixed for the
Common Itighte was necessarily a speculative rent; and Mr.
Eager; employed by James Lord Selsey, and utterly ig-ta?rant.
who might is his Lessee, cannot be charged with partiality
against Loid Selsey ; am/ it is, therefore, no juit eauie of com-
plaint in those whonow represent Janus Lord Selsry, that 'in
the event, Mr. Eager's spe:u:ations proved e favourage to
the tenant than lie expected.
Independent;Of the particular objection as to the flights of
Common, the plaintiffs have entered- itito general evidence to
prove that Mr. Eagin.'s valuation was. too low. They have
proved the valuation- of Mr. Hemingway, the Surveyor em-
ployed under the Inciosure Act, who in 1010 volued Ainberley
k'arin, without .Cold Waltham Farm, which is included in
the Lease to the defendant, at 6221.4 year, and they have proved
that Mr. Pinnix, in 1820, valued the whole of Amberley Farm
at 8401. a year. But there art two witnesses well eosin:On:rid
with the farm at the' .time of Mr. Eager': valuation, trite
who coVirm Air. Eager's valuation ;—and Mr. Pinnix, whu
fixed the value of the rent at 8401. in 1820, 1 find, says that
he would rather have
.paid that Rent in 1820, than have paid,
in 1803, the rent at which it was valued by Mr. Eager.—And,
as to Mr. Hemingway's valuation, it is obvious that could
form no satisfactory criterion of prior value, because it appears
that the Farm was much improved by Ow defendant,-and be-
cause Isis valuation comprises the' value of the land allotted under
the Inclosure.
Another objection made by the plaintiffs is, that Mr. Eager,
in valuing the tithes, under-rated the number of acres —it
turns out that Mr. Eager's mode of valuation was not to value
according to the gross number of the acres, but to value upon
what he estimated to be the average number of acres 'producible
of tithes.

. Another objection is, the term of the defendant's lease being
for twenty-one years, it not being the usual custom of ma-
nagement of Lord Selsey's estate.—That fact, which depends
enttrely on the passages in the answer, is not made out. If it
were, it does not appear to me to be material, because the length
of the teen was obviously intended at a kindness to the de-
fendant, In reipeet of his intention of placing his son upon the
farm, and there is no rule of policy which prevents this kind.
ness of the employer to the steward.
I do not think it necessary to advert more particularly to the
alleged misrepresentations of the quantity of acres in Amberley
Farm in the rental of 1817, which in itself is nothing, and
could only be used in aid of Other presumptions,. which are here
wanting.
James Lord Selsey lived till February, 1808, and John Lord
Selsey (who was also a party to the agreement with the defend.
ant), till the 25th of Jtine,lBl6, and no question appears to be
raised with the defendant until 1820.° Upon the whole, there-
fore, I am of opinion, that the Lease granted to the defendant
is not to be avoided in respect of the relation in which the de-
fendant sided with the lessor; and that this Bill must be dis-
missed with costs.

If the present Lord Sekey is advised, that he can impeach
this Lease on any other ground, namely, that it is a fraud on
the power, the law will still be open to him.

ARCHDEACON P0'1"1.

The following Address was unanitnously vott.tl
by the Churchwarden% and Vestrymen of the Parish of Saint
Martin in the Fields, to the above distinguished individual,
upon his resignation of that Living, having accepted the Rec-
torship of Kensington, vacant by the death of the late Joseph
Kennel'. The value of this testimony will be better appreciated
when we state that among those who signed it, as Vestrymen,
were the Earl of Liverpool, ,the Duke of Northumberland, Sir
Edmund Antrobus, Sir Coutts Trotter, Mr. A. B. Drummond,
Mr. It. li. Cox, &c. It was presented by a Deputation on the
13th instant. As a further proof of their regard and esteem

" We, the Churchwardens and Vestrymen of the Parish of St.

which may tend to your ravantage and increase your happiness;

which you have promotedVrind the liberality with which you

to the poor—yourunwearied exertions in visiting the sick, con-
soling the friendless' and relieving the distressed--in a word,
your. truly'paternai and benevolent conduct to all your Pa-

we have,_ upon all occasions, experienced from you ; and .al-
low us, Sir, to add, that our regret for the loss of so excellent a

each of us at the same time deprived of a most invaluable

CHURCH PROPERTY.—We have frtvently
had'oceasion to notice the numinous mixtaternenti which have
been circulated as to the value of Church Property. The fol-
lowing extract front the preface of a History of Waterford,
which has just been published by a Mr. Rl' Lion), a Clergy_
man of that City, will show our readers how little reliance is
to be placed in these general statements. The writer is allud-
ing to: Wakefield, whose history has been so frequently quoted
as the best authority on all subjects relating to Ireland.—
" The lands belonging to the See of 'Waterford are estimated
at 70,060/. This has been stated over and over again, till to
doubt it would be considered the utmost stretch of incredulity.
It is a fact, nevertheless; that the See Lands of Waterford, if
let to-morrow to the highest bidder, would not produce ore
sixth of the estimated amount l To descend to particulars :
supposing the lands of the See of Waterford to amount to
9,000 acres, (and this exceeds the one estimate by at least 4430,)
and supposing the average value at the present moment to be
twenty-five shillings per acre, (which is also considerably
abo•re truth,) the entire rental of these hinds would net exceed
I ',MY. per annum."
