CODDRINGTON v. SIR n'TER. PARXER..
The ()flied of this :motittn was for the appoint-

Skerrett's, in The isi:Md of Antigua.
Mr. Romaty' Said, that the plantations-belonged
to Antoinetta Skerrett, and that they were formerly
eneurnberd with a inortgage of 0001. and €20061.
as the: to:tion Of the Lady who had nvirried

prietor.
Sttbsequently ,Mxs,Skerrett applied to the Plain-

SIR WATKIN I,BII'ES 'ANTJ‘MiSS T-FAVES DMTIES

AND DAWSON.

We noticed this cause at the conclusion of our
report on saturday. Sir Watkin. Lewes had in-
curred a debt with Dr. Kent to the amount of
20001. which accumulated, with interest, to 25001.
The Doctor dying, Miss, Ferrers and another Lady
were appointed his executrixes, and demanded the
money to 'apply to the purposes of his Will. Sir
Watkin being desirous of some indulß-ence, ie the
time, prevailed on these Ladies to sell out of the
stOeles 41'241. - 2s. s'd. at Got to supply the 25061.
The amount of the dividends was to .be paid by Sit
%thin until the stock was vplaeed, and the funds
were to be restored on the t 2th , of February, 1802..
Tilt original debt had keen secured by seine estates.
itrCardiganshire, and the restitution of,this money
WIS now further secured, not onlYiby the bend of:
Sir Watkin, but by another of Joanna :Augustine
Lewes, his daughter, the condition of which was,
that if the produce of the. estates, should not be:
sufficient when sold to replace the :41201. 2....5(1.'
she should .be responsible for the deficiency. We
before stated, that the Motion before the Court was
for an injunction to stay, proceedings at law on
tWo bonds given by the 1%111611.35" these were the
bonds in questiOn.
The Loan CHANCELLOR, in pronouncing
milt, entered at considerable length into the na-
ture of the engagement, and the comparative claims
on the two securities, real and personal, with which.
,these Ladies were provided. 1-lis Lordship 'pointed
out the distinction between an agreement for the
reStitution of stock, and one of a wiuriOtk charm:,
ter; but whatever opinion he Might entertain of
the verdia on the bond of 'Sir Lewei;, he
must receive it as final 'and conclusive on that sub--'
jeer. His Lordship then proceeded : "'The' ques-
tion before ate is Only, it there be a.sufi`ieicttt grduia
laid for the iajtufetien Potting 'Miss tO outfof
Court, the Claimants cannot say. to Sir Wittkin, We
will commence a -personal aelion, lititt receive all
the money, and likeWise' enforce the other' part' of
the coutrafit, and' go on' to sell the estates.' :The
claubt is; if they are not to 'be cohsidered as hAti -1.
in bound themselves in equity to a certain ar-
rangement; and if thejudgment at-law`ean be taken
to be any thing more than a security for the other
Ores 61 the 'contra& ? it seems;, the parties pro-
welled to 'Cardigan, and: Sir Wathitt, instead of
feeling much anxiety to relieve himself from debt,
aeted from the ,amtri. principles in which malty of
the niisfurtunes Of his life have probably originated :
li feft also the attachment of a Welcltman to a
Welch estate, and. new expedients were resorted to
in .order to retain it; The estate,. however, is at last:
seld; bat, what might, naturally be eXpeeled, judg-
, ments caine in. the way, and no satislatiory title
could- be made. The Obstruaions are at last re-
moved ; 5001. and :afterwards 12001—are paid by
Mr. Davies, the buyer. The sums are invested in
the Stocks for, the- payment of these Ladies repre-
senting Dr; Kent, :and the amount yet remaining
due, 111 r. Davies 'is stated to be ready immediately to
pay. This item, added to the two former, would
make the whole investment exceed ;,0001: at the pre-
sent price of stocks, and therefore give a surplus of
nearly 9001. on the 41'241. 2s. 54. to be rectimded.-7.
Thus, Miss Lewes is wholly exonerated, and the
Claim of these Ladies on Sir Watkin Will belay
discharged. Upon the payment of the residue by
Mr. Davies, one of the Defendants in this cause. Let
the injunaion go, without prejudice."

copy of a will being produced in .Court instead of

delivetthe Wills to the Executors, on their depo•

Officer 'said he had no doubt, from the date and
cireutustances, that the original Will ,was returned
to. the Executors, and that this was the copy SC) au-
thenticated ; and be added, that it. did ,not appear
that this copy was received from another and in,
ferior jurisdiffion.. In., this situation, the Learned
Counsel trusted that the copy wordd be admitted
in evidence; or at least, that interrogatories might
