ttq.l-z.t, because'tlie indict.
meets could not be found until the assizes for Stafford,
and until that return was made the court could make
no order respecting the trial. It would be very inexpe-
pedient for this, or indeed hi any case for a trial
to take place on the coroner's inquisition only, which
was often very defective, but on an indictment which
had been preferred before a grand jury.
Mr. Sergeant Wilkins then referred their lordships
to a case reported in l'arnwell and Adolphin, 4th ♦ol.,
p. 576, relative to the removal of an indictment for
felony by certiorari.

Lord Campbell said there could be no doubt, as he
had already said, but that this Court had the power of
granting this application. In cases of murder the court
had, on foramsr occasions, removed the trials from limited
jurisdictions within a county to be tried
,at the county
assizes, and from the county of a city to the county at
large, according as the ends of justice required.
Mr. Sergeant Wilkins said he thought if a rule nisi
were greeted that between this day and the last day of
term the Crown would be prepared to assent to the
application now asked.

Lord Campbell—Take a rule to show cause.

Mr. Sergeant Wilkins—lf we serve the rule on the
Solicitors residing in town, I suppose that will be

inlsc!e2: ;

Lord Campbell--I 51c.114 tlainE and also on the
coroner ; and let copies 'of th;7friavits be served with

the rule.

Mr. Sergeant Wilkins—Certainly, my lord.
Lord CAMPBELL—Don't let it be supposed that we
think you have laid any foundation for a trial at bar.

Mr. Sergeant Wilkins—ln the case of Mr. Cook I sup-
pose it will be sufficient to serve a copy of the affidavits
and the rule on the attorney's town agent acting in th•
matter ?

Lord Campbell said that in such a serious case they
had not thought it right to offer 'any delay to the
application by requiring to be informed why the
motion had not been made earlier. It was necessary that
every ma* should be warned to serve the rule and affi-
davits to-night.
Mr. Sergeant Wilkins assented, and the rule was
issued accordingly.
