LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT 01 CHANCERY—Noo. 14.
STEELE V. STEWAItT.

The LOAD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to-day in this
case, which came before the Court some time since upon
appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor of Eng-
land. The only question in the case was, whether cer-
tain letters that have passed between the parties and
their agents were or were not privileged communications.
The Vice-Chancellor decided that they were ; and from
that decision the parties appealed to that branch of the
Court. It appeared that the defendant brought an ac-
tion against the plaintiff upon a policy of insurance on
a ship called the Sherborne, bound to Calcutta.
The defence set up to that action was that
the ship was not sea-worthy. Certain letters
passed between the parties relative to the evidence to be
adduced at the trial, and a bill was filed for the purpose
of compelling the defendant to produce them. On the
case coming before the Vice Chancellor of England, he
refused to order their production ; and his Lordship
agreeing in the propriety of that decision, dismissed the
appeal with costs.
