COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAT
6lrrzN:.:3 AT Nlil Pf.IUS 111i'011.6 LOKI) 6LLENIIOIOUI4:

THE ?LING V. JOHN HAD:KORB.

Mr. Serjeant UNS moved the judgment of the
Court agiiinst the defendant, who was convicted at
the last Assizes at Exeter, before Mr. Justice Chain-
bre, of assaulting Mr. Charles Pugh. The patlies
had had a former quarrel, in the course of 'which
the prosecutor thrashed the defendant; and in the
month of July last, the prosecutor, was passing with
some friends through, a field belonging to the
fendant, in his way to a ncighbourrftg 'river to fish,
when the Defendant, who was superintending his
hay-rnaki,:rs, demanded of • him what tight he had
to go that way, it not being a thoroughfare? Words
arose between them, and the defendant pointed a
hay-fork at the prosecutor, which constituted the
assault.

Mr. Serjeant FELL was beard in mitigation of pu-
nishment on butialt of the delendanl when

Mr. Serjeant LENS, said, his only object in bring•
ing him up for judgment, was to insure his personal
security against future violence., • , .
Lord ELLENI3OIiOVGII 'observed, 'that in a mo•
Inent of - irritation he had :atsed. the fork, and pru-
dence induced him to let 'it fall again, and no harm
was done.' He thought the justice of the case would
be fully answered by a nominal penally.
The defendant ss'as accordingly tined one shilling,
and entered into his own recognizance to.lcep the
peace in 501. for . two years, -and was then dis-
charged.

sorted to by Mr. Taylor to delay p 'poen t, and there-
by incurred the expenses in question, the Court dis-
charged the motion, with costs.
