Saturday :
Lord DF.NMAN said the election of Mr. Grimshaw Was bad•
Under any circumstances the council had no right to Leet
him at an adjourned meeting without notice. It bad be',
objected that the election took place before the actual issue
,°;
the letters patent, and that Mr. Rogerson was not appoia7(
under teal, but if anything was wrong at the time he
the election, everything was afterwards done that.ls
could do to make it valid. The town-council were alle!Y_
informed of the grant of the permission to hold quarter 'la!:
sions. They then met and made the appointment, 912001:
c'early that they did it bona-tide; and from that tirnep.OuPeee
1842, more than six years, Mr. Rogerson performed his a
and received the fees. Nothing was more dangerous than.,:cl
call this a void act. His appointment was recogaised,_,,,
was valid. The judgment upon the first and fourth Pr'
must be for the Crown.
