ROLLS COURT, Nov. S.

STUCKEY V. DREWE.

Mr. BrCKERSTETtt and Mr. JACOB appeared in
this case for the plaintiff, the assignee of an insol-
vent debtor, and the bill sought to have it declared
that an indenture conveying the insolvent's interest
in certain freehold and leasehold estates in Somerset-
shire to the defendant, his uncle-in-law, was fraudu-
lent and void, and that the property might be re-
conreyed to the plaintiff for the benefit of cre-
ditors. In 1828, House, the insolvent, being under
will entitled to, and in possession of, the property in
question, became indebted to the plaintiff in the
sum of 90/. fer rent; and repeated solicitations for
payment having been unattended to, Stuckey, on the
6th of December, arrested the insolvent, who then
took the benefit of the Act. Immediately before
his arrest, he came up to Brentford, where the de-
fendant lived, when it was agreed to convey his in-
terest in the property for 1001., out of which an al-
leged debt of 40/. to Drewe, for money lent, was to
be paid. An indenture was accordingly prepared,
and the conveyance effected. On House's return to
the country a mock sale was made of the farming
produce and utensils; and it was in evidence that
he then declared he had made over the property
safely enough to Drewe, and that he should go to
the Fleet in order to pay off the debt of Stuckey.
The liabilities of the insolvent amounted to 1,142..,
and his assets to 33/.; it was clear, therefore,t hat the
sale had taken place in contemplation of insolvency.
Mr. BEAMES and Mr. STINTON appeared for the
defendant, and called the attention of the Court to a
body of evidence, for the purpose of showing that
there had been no fraudulent concert between the
insolvent and the defendant.

His Hosoutt said, he was very much inclined to
think that this sale had been merely colourable; if,
however, it had been made bona fide, and not co-
lourably, he was of opinon that it had proceeded
altogether on the motion of the insolvent, and that

it was therefore a voluntary conveyance. It gave a
fraudulent preference to Drewe for his debt, and
although the inconsiderable value of the subject
should have led the parties to settle the question
without the expense of a suit in equity, yet the
Court was hound to say, that being a voluntary con-
veyance within the true construction of the Act, it
should be avoided, and with costs.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Nov. 8.

THE KING V. BERNEL AND ANOTHER.

This was an indictment against the defendants
Bernel and Lloyd, and two others, for a conspiracy
fraudulently to obtain and dispose of the goods of
the prosecutor At the trial at the Assizes, before
Mr. Jus,ice James Parke, the defendants Berne!
and Lloyd were convicted and sentenced to 18
months' imprisonment. They now appeared in
Court, and Mr. John Williams moved on their be-
half to set aside the verdict, as being against
evidence.

The COURT, however, refused to disturb the
verdict.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, however, said the
Court could not entertain the application.

EX-PARTE WALTER, ESQ.

Sir J. SCARLETT was instructed to make an ap-
plication to the Court on the part of John Walker,
Esq., a Magistrate of the county of Berks, and one
of the candidates for the representation of that
county in the next Parliament, for a rule to show
cause why a criminal information should not be
filed against Frederick Thomas Ward, who was an
attorney or an attorney's clerk at Maidenhead, for
the publication of a libel calculated to prejudice Mr.
Walter's interest at the election. The libel was
contained in a placard or handbill, which had been
made the subject of a similar application, at the in-
stance of Mr. Walter, against the printer, Mr.
Heath, of Abingdon. He (the Learned Counsel)
on the first day of the term obtained a rule for a
criminal information against Mr. Heath, but since
that time, as well as before, the handbill had been
circulated with great industry in the county of
Berks. The affidavits showed that Mr. Ward had
been found employing people to stick up the bills
in and about the town, and when asked whether he
did not know that this Court had granted a rule
against the printer of the bill, he admitted that
he did.

The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE—Take 8 rule.
Ru e Yui granted.
