examined, but there was no other evidence on that,

point, and the question would be, whether the jury
could rely on the plaintiff's evidence in contradiction
of the certificates, which stated that the parties
had examined him " separately from any other
medical practitioner." The next question would be,
whether Dr. Stilwell kept the plaintiff bona fide, or
whether he kept him there for his own gain, and
those questions would be very important in con-
sidering the question of damages. His lordship
then read the -plaintiff's evidence as to his treat-
ment by the defendant, which showed that his de-
lusions continued up to July 26, 1858, and also the
evidence of the keepers and Mr. Wainwright on the
same.point. His lordship then referred to the book
kept at the defendant's establishment, from which
it appeared that in the first quarter of the year
1857 Dr. Conolly had received £152 10s. from the
defendant. His Lordship thought that if Dr.
Conolly had been partly the proprietor he would
have received something out of every patient ; but
the book showed that he only received payments in
respect of a certain number. It looked more like
the case of a man who was " a regular professional
attendant in" the asylum. In the second quarter,
ending June, 1857, Dr. Conolly received his con-
sulting fee (25 guineas) and payments in respect of
18 out of 40 patients. In the quarter ending at
Michaelmas, 1857, Dr. Conolly receiving his con-
sulting fee (25 guineas) rnd payments in respect of
18 patients, in varying sums; amounting in all to
£lB4 7s. 6d. In the quarter ending at Christmas,
1857, he received payments also in respect of 18
patients. So, also, in the quarter ending in March,
1858, he received his consultation fce (25 guineas)
and payments in respect -of 18 patients, and in that
quarter Mr. Ruck's name appeared with £l5 oppo-
site it. In the quarter ending at Midsummer,
1858, Dr. Conolly received his consultation fee of
25 guineas and payments in respect of 18 patients,
Mr. Ruck's name having £l5 opposite to it. It
would be for the jury to say, upon that evidence,
whether they thought Dr. Conolly was or was not
" a regular medical practitioner in" the asylum.
Mr. James called his Lordship's attention to the
fact that while £l5 appeared twice after Mr.
Ruck's name, Dr. Conolly had not attended him
at all. ,
Mr. Justice Hill said. that was certainly Mr.
Ruck's evidence 'but one of the witnesses said that
Dr. Conolly spoke to him, and asked him how he
did. Its Lordship told the jury that, whether
they thought Dr. Conolly was "in part a pro-
prietor" or a regular " professional attendant" in
the asylum, in either case they ought to find their
verdict for the.plaintiff, with such damages as they
might think reasonable ; but, if they thought
sitherwise, they ought to find for the defendant.
The jury retired to consider their verdict, and on
their return into court found that, if receiving the
money as shown in the book made Dr. Conolly a
part proprietor they found the fact of receiving
the money. They found that Dr. Conolly was the
regular professional attendant, with £5OO damages.
As to Barnett's not being in practice, the jury
found they had not sufficient evidence that he was
not, nor had they sufficient evidence to satisfy them
that the plaintiff had not been examined separately
by. Mr. Barnett and Dr. Conolly.
Mr. Justice Hill then directed the jury to find
their verdict -for the plaintiff, with £5OO damages.
—'verdict fe' the plaintiff—damages £5OO.
