ROLLS COURT.
(Before the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.)
BROOKE V. PEARSON.-JUDGMENT.

The question here arises under the marriage settlement
of William Pearson and Elizabeth, his wife. The hus-•
band afterwards became bankrupt, and his real estate was
sold for £17,400. The wife claimed an annuity of £3OO
under the settlement; the children, £lO,OOO. The bank-
fupt's assignee claimed the residue.
His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—ln this case I
was desirous to look over the authorities yesterday before I
expressed my opinion on it, but I am of opinion that this
is a good annual rent-charge for £3OO in- favour of the
wife. It is impossible for me to look to this clause in the
settlement and not clearly
.discover that it was the inten-
tion of Mr. and Mrs. Pearson that this should be the
arrangement of the settlement. When I first heard Mr.
Selwyn, I was disposed to think that this clause was void
ab initio, but I have come to a contrary conclusion. His
Honour declared the wife's annuity preferable to the claim
of the assignee, and directed the trustees of the settlement
to invest £lO,OOO in Three per Cent. Consols for the benefit
of the children of the marriage; the mortgagees to be paid,
and the residue given to the assignee in bankruptcy. Costs
to be paid out of the estate.
