LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, May 20.
• (Before Mr. Commissioner PANE.)
THE ITALIAN OPERA-HOUSE, COVENT-GARDEN.—IN RE

EDWARD THOMAS DELAFIELD.
It will be almost needless to state that this bankrupt
was the lessee of the above-named theatre, and a
member of the firm of Combe, Delafield, and Co.,
the brewer•, from which he retired with a sum of
about 100,0001. It will be fresh within the recollec-
tion of our readers that the bankrupt was to ha►e
entered into a bond to pay the creditors 10s. in the
pound out of all future acquired property, upon which
ground no opposition was offered, and the certificate
was to have been granted of a minor class, but he
had failed to carry out the proposition, and to-day
was fixed for the certificate meeting, it being open to
the creditors to go into the whole of the facts of the
case. As at the previous sittings, the court was
crowded with anxious spectators, including ballet
dancers, chorus singers, &c. It is now some seven
months since the bankrupt passed his last examina-
tion, and it may, therefore, be necessary to re-insert
some of the principal items of the balance-sheet,
which comprises 36 folios, and shows a total of
145,8561.

Mr. Cooke (with Mr. Lewis, Ely-place, solicitor)
appeared to support the bankrupt, and Mr. Lawrance
(with Mr. Espin, joint solicitor to the fiat) appeared
to oppose. Messrs. Banks and Sons, Fish-street-hill,
the accountants engaged in the case, were again is
attendance.
The items were these:—

joint account. In addition to this, there was found
the sum of 5,0001. as a gift to Webster. True, it
might be said that these items together did not exceed
the sum Delafield had inherited from his ancestors.
He would now turn to the expense sheet, which
showed the personal expences to amount to 22,2881.
Bs. 91 ' • and another very startling item, 859/. for the
rent of a house in Berkeley-square.
His HONOUR—That was quite reasonable, seeing
that the bankrupt's income was 7,500/. a year.
Mr. LAWRANCE—But it would be remembered
that the capital was being exhausted. While
this sum was being spent the capital was being cast
abroad. The expenses included 2,8001. for carriages
and harness ; expenses to Brighton, 9731.; expenses
to Hastings, in 1847, upwards of 2,0001. Then, after
that, there was an item which, to use the words of
Mr. Commissioner Goulburn, in a recent case, must
be termed a waste paper, amounting to 4,368/.
His Hs:moult, looking at the expenses, wished to
know where the twopences and threepences came
from ?
Mr. COOKE said that those items were vouched.
His HONOUR said that the bankrupt's expenses
were 6,000/. a year.
Mr. LAWRANCE said that had the bankrupt lived
within his income there would have been no com-
plaint, but it would be found that his capital was ex-
hausted, and that it was the creditors who were pay-
ing the 6,0001 The outlay on the estate at Willow •
bank alone amounted to 8,000/. It was impossible
to look at the bankrupt's balance-sheet without being
not only struck, but staggered at the extravagance
disclosed by it, and the only apology that seemed to
Mr. Lawrence that could be urged in his favour was,
that he was extremely youthful, but he had kept no
account of the outlay, and he had daily monitors of
his personal expenses, not profiting, however, by
them.
His HONOUR—Then they ought to have been me-
morandums in two senses of the word.
Mr. LAWRANCE—Yes. There were some facts in
the bankrupt's examination which he ought to have
the benefit of. When he was examined he showed
the greatest anxiety to give all the information in his
power, and unfortunately it was the only reparation
he could give. The bankrupt's examination showed
that he had been a partner with Messrs. Combs and
Co., and retired from the firm with a capital of
100,0001. There was no deed of dissolution. He
was entitled to a reversionary interest of 6,0001. under
the will of his father. The bankrupt owed Beale,
senior, 3,0001. on bills of exchange which he pro-
posed to pay at 5001. a month, and in the event of not
keeping the payments up, the reversionary interest
was to become Beale's. Ultimately it did. Dela-
field gave Henry Arthur Webster, whom he had
known three or four years, the money to pay for the
mansion at Willow-bank. The conveyance was not
made to him (bankrupt). The mansion, which was
purchased from General Conyers, was pulled down,
and rebuilt at a cost of about 6,0001. From time to
.time had lent Webster about 8,0001.. He gave no
receipt for the loans. He was not returned as a
debtor. He had advanced him (Delafield) money
before he was of age.
His HONOUR asked how it was that Webster was
not returned as a debtor ?,
Mr. COOKE said that an account had been filed re-
specting it, He owed Webster 1,500/. or 2,000/.
The matter had been investigated at a previous
meeting, and Webster had not been examined on the
other aide.
His HONOUR—But after paving all these expenses,
the bankrupt did not return Webster a debtor ; but
yet he says that he recollected lending him 3,0001.,
and that the money Webster advanced was between
1,5001. and 2,0001. Why, the account was worth
looking at as a matter of curiosity.
Mr. LAWRANCE—If there was anything pleasing
in Willow-bank, the account might as well be looked
at; and it would be seen that that which was good
enough for General Conyers was not good enough
for the bankrupt. It would be seen that in addition
to the gift of 5,000/. to -Webster, and the outlay of
6,0001. or 7,0001. on the premises at Willow-bank,
there was a sum for liabilities, principally on account
of Webster—
Mr. Cooxa said that none of the liability creditors
had been allowed to prove.
His HONOUR supposed that the proofs were re-
jected on the ground that their remedy was against
Webster.
Mr LAWRANCE then referred to the bankrupt's
examination of the 18th of August, from which, he
said, it would appear that the bankrupt had fallen
into the hands of those older and wiser than himself.
It appeared that be first became acquainted with
Beale, who was then manager of the Opera House, in
the spring of 1847. In August, 1847, Beale came
to him in his box at the theatre, and said that they
were at a loss for money to pay the money due to the
artistes; and, after some conversation, the bankrupt
agreed to give his promissory note for 3,0001. The
whole of the account fell on the bankrupt. The opera
season terminated in 1847. In November, 1847, the
bankrupt and Beale entered into partnership, and in
December Beale went out of the firm.
Mr. COOKE—One month after it was formed.
Mr. LAWRANCE—The debts fell on the bankrupt.
Beale had no money, but some time afterwards he
made an advance to pay Grisi and Mario. Bankrupt
told Beale that he was going to get out of the way
from arrest, that he had made an account of the
salaries, which were 4,0001. He received nothing
from Mr. Beale. He then left the country and went
to Brussels. He had had a great many actions against
him between March, 1848, and August, 1849.
During the season of 1848, Delafield had said he was
utterly ruined.
His HONOUR—HO said " I was, in fact, entirely
ruined at the end of the season of 1848."
Mr. LAWRANCE—On being ruined, according to
his own showing, a man ought to have called his
creditors together and put the theatre in their hands,
but he had continued to go on recklessly and improvi-
dently, or, if that was not' strong enough, the con-
traction of any debt by him after that period was
dishonest. The bond as to the money coming out of
the brewery was pledged, as was also his reversionary
interest.

'had been treated by him at defiance. He trusted
that this case would be treated without regard
to the bankrupt's position, and looking at the
figures, he thought that a strong case had been made
out against him. It was not for him (Mr. Law-
rence) to deal upon judgments the Learned Commis-
sioner had given, but he must name a case of a trader
whose debts were only 4001 or 500/. In that case
the bankrupt had delivered over a valueless agree
went to his friend, and some miserable articles of do-
mestic furniture. The certificate was there suspended
for two years. The complaint against the bankrupt
was, gross and reckless extravagance, improperly
making away with property, and aggravated miscon
duct towards Eversfield; and from the manner in
which he had disposed of his property, showed that
he was not a person entitled to go into trade again.
The bankrupt was a young man of health and energy,
and therefore ought to he comnelled to morteuee
portion of his fug ure earnings. Tne same course had
been adopted in two eases before eh.. Commissioner
Fonblanque, viz., Ilensrnan and Hensman and that of
Lord Huntingtower. Delafield stood alone in the
world without encumbrances, and something like res-
titution was necessary for the creditors.
His llueoua was not ae are that any case had been
decided, so as to enable him to make any difference
between Eversfield and the other creditors.
Mr. LAWEANCE thought not. He then made some
observations upon the judgment given by his Honour
in the case of Martin Luther Pritchard, showing that
the proceedings in this court were looked to with ab-
sorbing anxiety out of doors. Having mentioned the
case of a trader who had obtained a first-class certifi-
cate before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd, and in which
two large houses had immediately given him credit,
the Learned Advocate concluded.
His HONOUR then remarked upon two gentlemen
having met him in the street and complimented him
upon a judgment which appeared in the morning
journals, but that was due to Mr. Commissioner Hol-
royd, for it referred to the case of. Gibson and Sturt.
Mr. COOKE quite agreed with his Learned Friend
as to the interest the proceedings in this court excited
in the public mind. This Court was to see the dis-
tinction marked between a man who had commenced
trade recklessly and dishonestly, without a shilling
of capital, between a man advanced in years, of
long experience in trade, and with a perfect dis-
regard to his own character, and incur debts to a
large extent, without giving the creditor any advan-
tages. The public like to see a distinction from the
case of a young gentleman who had had no experi-
ence in trade, who had been brought up in the lap
of luxury, a man who had a large fortune, and who
had been brought in by experienced men to stop a
gap they had caused and could not fill up, and all his
friends had been engulphed. That was the case in
which the public did like to see a distinction. With
respect to the cases before Mr. Fonblanque, it was
different when a man came to be relieved by a pro-
cess called white-washing, and if a man can do any-
thing
through the exercise of his judgment, it was very
proper to make future exertions for his creditors.
Was this the case of a dentist seeking protection
from the law (giving up nothing to his creditors, and
never would lose) to prevent oppression from
the law. In such a case a man ought to do
something hereafter for his creditors. In the
case of Hensman, that was where a young man
had great expectations from an aged aunt, and
came to this court to be relieved, expecting the
death of that aunt. The Court, however, said it
would refuse the certificate, or suspend it from time
time till she did die. The case of Lord Hunting-
tower was, where there was a large family fund, and
great expectations there were from that fund. He
would remind the Court of a case in which it had
been asked to annex certain conditions. It was that
of M. Jullien, and after consideration his certificate
was granted without any conditions.
His HoNoue—That was a case in which he was
shamefully defrauded.
Mr. Cooue—By the great talents he possessed he
was likely to realise a large amount of money. With
respect to Mr. Delafield, it was deemed advisable, that
he should have a first-class certificate, and an offer
was made to the creditors. He had nothing to offer,
end what there was would have come from his friends,
but as he could not have a first-class certificate, they
said it would be useless to pay their money for his
debts. In the first instance it was said that the bank-
rupt was not fit for trade, and then directly after-
wards it was asked that he should set aside a portion
of his future earnings. There was no chance of an
arrangement in any way, and with respect to the
4,6001. advanced by his old friend, he did not ask for
any certificate. If any arrangement could be made
in respect to that, it would be paid, for Mr. Delafield
felt that claim as strongly as anybody. He (Mr.
Cooke) . expressed his surprise at the quarter from
which the opposition came, and when none of the
other creditors complained, and when the trade debts
were not more than 1001. or 2001. Instead of this
gentleman commencing without capital, it was pain-
ful to him and all persons to know that he had lost
100,0001., and there was really nothing in this young
gentleman's conduct deserving censure. When he
was at Oxford he contracted debts, and bad every
facility for so doing, but they had all been paid. He
came`of age in 1845, and being then in possession of
106,000/., was it not likely that he was pointed at by
the clever people of this city as being a gentleman whom
it would be advantageous to look after ? It was through
his own good feeling that he did not go to the gambling
house, but unfortunately he had a delight for music,
and he: took a box at the Opera House, which was
the cause of his career. He was sitting in his box
when Beale went in, and one could help the little
flattery and delicate talk, when he was pointing out
the splendour of the scenery, the beauty of the actors,
and charms of the dancers. At present, said Beale,
(as alleged), they were in difficulties, and could the
bankrupt give his note for 3,0001., which would
shortly be paid. Now, there was a flattery in that.
He gave it ; and when they found they had that faci-
lity,it was not likely he would 'be allowed to remain
quiet. They led him daily, in innocence of the snare
prepared for him, until he found himself totally
engulphed. At last he was to come into the
theatre, and pay no more than 15,0001., but he
was left, and lost his all. It was all very well
to say, why did you not go to some friend to,
advise you to have nothing to do with it? He was
unwise enough to take it, and that was his only
fault ; but such words as dishonesty were not to be
applied to this bankrupt, whose very feelings ab-
horred it, and who had as high a character as any
man. No evidence of dishonesty had been given, and
he defied the world to say that he had given any
fraudulent preference, or that he had contracted a
debt by means of any misrepresentation. It had
been said that he ought not to have kept in the theatre
so long, but he had no time to leave it. He had
made no engagements, they having all been made
prior to his taking it. He bad lost 59,0001. before
one year was over. He was in the wheel, and could
not stop himself; the machinery worked with that
rapidity that he could not get out of it. The other
parties did-not like the machinery; they could get
out of it, and got him into it. The artistes had
got 59,000/. out of Delafield, and if he had
stopped in 1848, the result would have been the
same. The expenses of getting up an opera were
very heavy, and the operas Huguenots and Prophite
had occasioned a loss of no less than 14,000/. Ia
a case of a young gentleman like this, it must be
seen if there was any dishonest motive. Was it not
clearly a case of pity, and not one for scrutinising
every little thing in a man's career? He (Mr.
Cooke) contended that there was no impropriety in
the case, and that there was a large debt due to
Webster, who was an old friend of the bankrupt's.
It was expected that there was about to be a marriage
in the family, and was it astonishing that Delafield,
who tben scarcely knew how easily 100.0001. might
be got rid of, should lend his old friend 5,000 l? Then,
with respect to Appleby, he had paid liabilities for
the bankrupt, and would not go farther without se-
curity, it was to be expected he would require it,
and it was given. What assignments the bankrupt
had given was in no way disadvantageous to the cre-
ditors. Then, as to the action of Eversfield, there
appeared to be some angry feeling between the at-
torneys; and when these monarchs of the law quar-
relled the unfortunate clients often suffered. The
debt due to Eversfield was a friendly one, and the
bankrupt still felt it as such. His money, as if by
some magic stroke, had all disappeared; and, with
respect to not coming to the Court before, there was
no doubt that Mr. Delafield was not aware that
he was amenable to the bankrupt laws. He spe-
culated with his own money, and, if as awaking from
a feverish dream,- all had gone. His conduct as a
trader, which the Court had to consider, could in no
way be: attacked, and there was no pretence for say-
ing that he had been guilty of reckless trading. In
this case there was no accommodation paper, and the
books had been admirably well kept. His private ex-
penses were vouched, with the exception of the 4,0001.
called a waste paper, which was a mere nothing,
seeing that the bankrupt had 100,0001. Character to
this young gentleman was of the utmost importance,
and there was not a single person who came forward
to say that he had deceived them.
His HONOUR wished to know something about the
2,0001 lost by the performance of the Brussels
operatic company ? •
Mr. COOKE said that they were considered to be the
best in Europe. The climate did not suit them ; they
caught cold and could not sing.
His HONOUR said that there was another advance to
Mr. Charles Mathews, at the Lyceum season in 1849.
Mr. LEWIS said it was in 1848, before the ruin took
place.

llis HoNouß said h 3 would defer giving judgment
for the present.

Dispatches were received yeAteriia.! , at the Gilonial-
office, from the Governor of the Cape of Good tiope,
and also from the Lord High Commivaioner of the
