LAW REPORT.

A MISREPRESENTATION Of a late Cause in the
Court of Euheqev, respeding Tythes, having been.
;
iwertet. in several Newspapers, in justice to the
Pa ties and to' prevent the. Public being misled
on a point which is material both to Rectors and to
ll'artners, we present our Readers with the following
authentic statement :
The Rev. Nicholas Turner having, in 1796,
become Itedor of Lurgashall, in Sussex, in 1797
entered into a verbal agreement with his Parishnm.
etc for a Money Composition for Tythes, at a spe-
cifie payment by each occupier, from Michaelmas
preceding ; and on which agreement it was under-
stood by the Paulo,. that the Redor•was, in re.
spat of sect). Composition, to pay no.Poor..rates,
or other Parochial Taxes usually paid by Tenants ;
and, conformably with this understanding, was the
general pratice of making Compositions in all the
neighbouring Parishes, and had also been the prac.
tice for twenty years past in this very Parish,- on
the Compositions made by the Lessees under the
Redors preceding Mr. Turner. In August 1798,
Mr. Turner was instituted to another Living,,
whereby he avoided the Living of Lurgashall ; and
in November following he was again presented to
Lurgashall. In Oaober 1798, the Churchwardens,
Overseers, and Vestry (consisting-exclusively of
almost all the present Defendants in this suit), in
breach of their agreemeni, assessed Mr. Turner to
the Poor-rates -on their Compositions, and at the
utmost sun! which these Compositions had produced
to him ; and continued so to rate him down to the
time of his determination of the Composition with
the Defendants under the regular no.tice. •But so
far was Mr. Turner from wishing to disturb the
Compositions existing before his avoidance of Lot.
gashall, that very shortly after his second induc-
tion thereto, and before the, commencement of
thia Suit, he offered a written agreement to his
Parisrtioners for continuing the Compositions, on
their undertaking also to repay the Taxes in respat
thereof wrongfully charged on him : and this the
greater number. of the Parishioners consented to,
and continue their Compositions to the present,
time : but ten persons, the Defendants in this
Suit, having refused to comply with such agree-
trient, and wishing to evade the payment of the
Taxes on the Compositions., Mr. Turner was com.
pelted -to proceed in the Exchequer against them,
and in his suit to. charge his avoidance of Lurga.
shall to be a determination of the Composition.; be-
cause if -he had claimed the Composition without
alledging the avoidance, the Defendants might
have defeated his claim, by themselves setting, up
-that avoidance as a determination of the Composi.
lion ; and at the hearing, two principal questions
arose ; the first, a Question of Law, whether the
avoidance of Lurgashall determined the existing
Composition ? The second, a Question of hay,
Whether it was the intention of the parties, when
the Composition was agreed the Redor.
shutild receive it free from Parochial Taxes usually
paid by Tenants ? And it appearing in evidence that
the Ralor was not rated fur the Compositions for
one year and a half after the agreement for them, and
during which peric,4 three Poor. rates were made -;
and that the Defendants (themselvei,' the Parish
Offiters, and Principal Inhabitants), 'though they
had sworn in their answers that they did not know
the ReCtor was omitted in the Poor.rates, almost
all of them had actually signed those Rates ; and it
also appearing that the other Parishioners who had
agreed for Composition had considered the Redor
exempt from the Poor-rates on, the Compositions,
and had repaid him their portion of such Rates.---
the Court were unanimously of opinion, that the
Defendants ought to repay the Reaor the sums
with which he had been charged in the Parish.rates
for their Compositions, and that the raring him for
the Compositions was the wrist) male (the expression
of the LORD CIIIET BARON) between the the Parties ;
and (under a previous ob.servation by Mr. Baron
THotarsoN, that the payment of the Compositions,
and repayment Of the. Taxes on them'by the D..
fkidants to the Ratak, would be more advantageous
to him than the determination of the 'Composition
'by the avoidance), the Court recommended it to
'the Reflor so to take the decree, and which was
done accordingly. So that the question, whether
the avoidance did or.did not determine the existing
Composition, was not at all decided t and the prin.
, civic on which tire .Redor insikted, viz. that.he
was to receive his Compositions free from Parochial
Tenants Taxes, was fully esiblishedin his favour.

RECOVERY Of LOST Von a..,—The case here
described deserves .:to be recorded, not only as a
matter of curiosity, but as it may -be, 'instrumental
to. the relief of others, who labour . under the in.
• firmity experienced by the patient in‘the following
:relation:—In the beginning of December, 1801•,
111:13 'ETU SR I. LE RS, a scholar in the girls charity,
school in Sheffield, aged 13 years, 'lost, her voice,
so that she was .unable to express • herself on any
- °Cession otherwise than by a Whisper: She, haw,
ever, enjoyed very good health, and went• through
several employments in the school, such as knitting,
• sewing, spinning.at the high and low wheel, &c.
without any indulpirce. ' Read audibly 'she could
not; and her infirmity, without intermission, re-
(listed all Medical 'assistance • till the evening of
the.soth of March, 1803, site, hearing several of
her school-fellows singing a hymn, in which she
wished to join, went up to one SARAH MILNER,
and whisperingly begged that she would shoot down
her throat. MILNRR at first was shocked at the
proposal, and -refused to comply with, her request ;
• but at length, throUgh her --repeated solicitations,
site consented, and shouted down 'her throat .with
all her might; upon which SELLERS, to the astonish:
ment of whole school, immediately regained her
voice, and wept and sung as if she had been almost
in a ti"La me of derangement ; and has continued in
possef.sion of her voice ever since. According to
her accouut, her first sensation upon. the loss of her
voice was as if she had a lump in her throat, and
she can assign no other reason for her request to
I\4ll.lflut, ,than that she thought her compliance
would relieve her.
