PURcr.t.l.. V. MACNAMARA.

• The Pla;ntiff, .hiss Purcell, as representative of
Mr. Purcell, had neccitinN xvit!t t!iol)::leildant, con-
netted. with rhe produce of \Ve4-,ludic ilantaticins:
to a prodigious extent. The object of the pre, wit
application to the.,Court t!: wore speedv.
termination aligltt obtained by a proci.q:ding- (te fir
In diem, hi the .Nfaster".3.otilee.

• lylr...lloNtrtaxand Mr. NATI', fl)r titt. Plaintiff,
said,. that, accorditt4 to the rof,te. proct,toding, the
remainder of the lives of their CIL ttl; the D,!-
fondant would be exhaulekl during the e:s.atnination
of the accounts. The 64C11111 ;LIM:CS justified dis
.pensing with the uswd forms., Them woe :two
ways of preVenting justice in thi; Court; tho oriz;;,,
byinereasing the expenees of the ett:o;e ; the other„
by contriving all means, Of 'procrastination k, and,
when they both were combined,. redress seeined'to
be nnpossible. The Defendant becanie Trustee to
the property in question in the, year 1772, and the
arise was heard in t 603. The honour of th Court,
and the due achninistration of justice, were as Much
concerned as the- parties. The particulars from the
Defendant consisted of no less than 422 folios, and
all the ingenuity of the Learned CounSel on the
other side had not distinguished a single chargeto
the benefit of which. the Defendant had not been ad-
mitttA.
‘‘ I .am not," said Mr. Ilomit.t.y, ar-.
taigiting the Court, but I am tirraigning the cob-
dutr of those who will take advantage of the dispo-
sition of the Court to render complete and substan-
tial jU;tice. I am, my Lord, arraigning those who
avail themselves of their professional charatler
and reputation 'to abuse the confidence they have
acquired, and to defeat the equitable and benefi-
cent designs which the Court at all times disposed
to indulge."

Messi:s. FoN*Bractiuug, Timm rum-, and AoAtii, On
the part of the Defendant, ,diselaimed id', inclina-
tion to delay. It was not until the :.'Bth of. June
List that directions were given in , another cause
(Macnatuara L Baillie) which .materially atf..!6t,A the
prese:lt. The objeet was not onlY to take account.
of tllu transaftion during the long period at 35
years, .but .itv. a case where scarcely any VOUChcrS
Were to 14produced, from the friendly confideilee
entertained between the partici. The Detinidant
'rolled' only on the 4estimony (4. gratitude, and of
that he was unfortunately deprived. What was the
admittie,of Precipitation; votopaed to the benefit
to he derived from mature reflMion on every part
of the case ?R-The Present Application was to en-
force. a Proceeding inconsistent with the established
forms, as it was' the practice of the Master's Odice
never to issue adverse Wattants after the last seal,
without the express permission of the Court.
The LOAD eIjANQELLOR, after several remarks
on the citse, concluded- with observing, " that he
should look at:the proceedins.:, communicate with
the Master, and imp.ut his; opi;,ion to the Bar kni
Moncloy or Tuesday licit."
