THE LATE GREAT FRAUDS ON THE CITY OF LONDON
UNlON.—Yesterday afternoon a meeting of representa-
tives of the parishes in the City of London Union
affected by the recent frauds of Paul and Manini,
was held at Radley's Hotel, Blackfriars, to consider
the best means' to be adopted for the pro-
tection of the ratepayers ; Mr. H. Webb in the
chair. Mr. Newbon rea the opinion of Mr.
Garth; of the common law bar, which has already been
published, that the parish cannot be legally required to
defray the losses occasioned by the defalcations bf Paul
and Manini. Mr. Ne when said that the parish of St.
Ann's, Blackfriars, acting on this opinion, had given or-
ders to resist payment. Mr. Jones, as representative of
St. Stephen's, Coleman-street, laid before the meeting the
opinions of Mr. Serjeant Byles and Mr. Hawkins to the
same effect. Mr. Wilson, en behalf of St. Mary,
Aldermanbury, read the opinion of Mr. Pashley, Q C.,
who thought that the burden should fall on those who
appointed Manini. Mr. Newbon read another opinion
from Mr. Palmer, Q.C., and Mr. Sargent, to the
effect that the guardians, who gave Manini an il-
legal order to pay the moneys he collected to
the treasurer of the union, instead of the overseers of
the parishes, were liable. Some discussion ensued, after
which Mr. Wilson moved the following) resolution :
" That in the opinion of this meeting the late call of the
guardians of the City of. London Union on the various
parishes, so far as it relates to the defalcations of Paul and
Manini, is illegal, and should be resisted." Mr. Cfnii-
grave seconded the motion, which was put and carried.
Another resolution was carried, that the representatives
of the various vestriesshoulci call the ratepayers together,
and propose to them to contribute rateably to the ex-
penees that would be incurred in resisting this demand. .4
