This was an action brought against the owners of the
vessel Amelia, to recover compensation for the damage
done to certain quantities of wheat, flour, and malt, the
property of the plaintiff, which had' beet' shipped on
board the Amelia, and which had been damaged, as
was
,alleged, ih consequence-of the 'delay occasioned by
a- deviation made by the Amelia in the course, of her
voyage. The defendants pleaded that the deiiatton was
justifiable. • - . •
Mr. Whately appeared for the plaintiff, and. Mr. 'Platt
for the defendants.

It appeared that the Attielist, with ,theplaintiff's wheat,:
flour, and malt on board, -sailed from Yarmouth for
Liverpool, •on the 22t1 of July, in company with
the ship Martha ; they proceeded to Dungeness toge-
ther ; while at Dungeness the Amelia:proceeded to ren

vered that the .vessel.- visa- deierted, there was ho
human being on board her. 1: linden these cirdurn-

her into Darer, 'whereby her. owners .aud crew became

.Lord-DENHAn. in summing up, said tbat the,.dUty of
easing human life was paramount. to every other, and
deviation for-the purpose of assiating a ship in distijesi
was justifiable ;• but when it was discovered that- the ship
in distress was deserted, and that there was no umanbeing,.
* continuance of that deviation for the purpose of saving
property merely, and to get salvage, was not justifiable,
Inasmuch as it was -the duty of persons in such •a situa-
tion to take eare of the property entrusted to
them rather than •of the property of others. If they
believed that the damage done to:the plaintiff's properly'
