WOOD V. woop.

ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

TULK V. MOZIIAT.

The arguments in this part-heard motion were va
sumed this morning, and occupied his Loirdship
Master of the Rolls the greater part of the day.
The case came before the Court yesterday, upti'
motion to dissolve an injunction, which *as giantriti ,
October last, to prevent Edward Mothay from iiiiitrar
ing the iron railings round Leicester-square, andisP°
to restrain him from doing any act to destroy the Ord"
as a pleasure ground, and also from cutting doff* $11••
trees, and building upon the ground.
It appeared that in 1808 the site of the square woe
conveyed by Charles Augustus Tulk to Charles Elms,
consideration of a sum of 2101., and the deed contatl3o6
a covenant by Mr. Elms, for himself and his heirs. W
keep the garden in its then form, and to allow the ham-
bitants, upon their paying for keys, to use the garden:
No keys had been applied for during a great number of
years, and the square had not been used as a pleasure'
ground. It was also overrun with weeds, and the rail'
ings were broken. The piece of land, in the meantime,
had passed through several hands, and was purchased in
August, 1848, by Edward Moxhay, the present owner,
for 4151. He desired to vary the site, and claimed a
right to build upon the land. In October 1206 he sent
workmen upon the ground, who began to take down the
railing, upon which the present bill was filed, and the in-
junction now sought to be dissolved was obtained; and it
was now insisted either that the injunction ought to be
dissolved, or that the case ought to be put in such e,
course as would decide whether the covenant entered
into by Charles Elms in 1808 was binding upon Edward
Moxhay, the defendant.
Mr. ROUNDELL PALMER appeared for the defendant
Moxhay, and contended that the injunction ought to be
absolutely dissolved.
Mr. TURNER and Mr. SHEBBEAR were in support of
the continuance of the injunction.
The further arguments occupied the Court the whole
morning.

VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before the VICE• CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.)
THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. THE EARL OF sztkmpoaD'
The further arguments in this part-heard case occw
pied the Court the whole day, and appear likely to do se
for several days to come. The only question in the case
is whether the masters of the Grammar-school of Dlah"
Chester are to be permitted to receive boarders, and if se
whether such boarders were to be allowed to participate
in the benefits which had been conferred upon the
charity.
Mr. BETHELL resumed and concluded his opening of
the case, which has already occupied the Court two days'
this morning.
Mr. MALENS and Mr. BALDWIN followed on the saute
side, on ['chaff of the relatives.
The General and Mr. Wray appear for the
Attorney- General, and Mr. J. Parker and Mr. Bagshavve
fur the noble defendant.
