OLD BALLEY.

DUEL AT CHAL,K FARM.

•
Mr. Patmore. (as we si3 ted yesterday)
.1:72.'s
put upon his trial for the wilful it .ceder of the la.e J. Scott,
Esq. .Our Readers will recollect the t Mr. Prpnore was second
to Mr. Scott in the. unfortunate tl nsaction at Chalur, Farm,
the particulars of which we hare 1 ..u.cly published, and are
therefore dispensed from the nec,st ty of repeating here tte
contents of .% r. WALFORD'S opening speech ori,the part of.th:3
prosecutiOn.
The first witness..called was Mr. A ettigrew, the Surgeon, of
Spring-gardens. Before he was sw:T a, Mr. Justiec IIAYLEg
acUressed him, and said he was not mild to answer any qua-
tion which was calculated to criminA hirnself.'`
Mr. Pettigrew thank d his Lord ship, and replied, that Ls
was. act aware he had incurred any (t.itninality, for he had mere-
ly gone, as a professional man, ; o render assistance if eal/ed
upon, and without having any previous knowledge of Messti.
Scott or Christie, or of their canst of quaritl. Be hoped dint
it did not eizpose him to any legal. guilt ; it certainly did not, is
his judgment, to any moral crime.
Mr. Justice BAYLEY said, that if he (Mr. Pettigrew) went
knowingly to attend any duel, fOr the purpose of rendering as-
sistance to any of the parties therein, and that death ensued, he#
being knowingly present, became involved is: a criminal Charge,
in the eye of the law.
Mr. Pettigrew then sAid, that, under sui.h cireurnstancras, he
must de:line giving evidence.
Mr. Benin Morris, his pupil, was next ccalled, and s:milarly
excused himself from giving evidence.

11-Ir. Justice BAY LEY observed, that. a professioral Gentle-
man had some years-ago been tried at the Old Palley, Linder
circumstances of the same nature.—(T) .e case alluded to by tt.,6'
'
Learned Judge .was.,- we believe, thai. of Mr. Heaviside, mt..'
surgeon, who attended the 6.tal duel. b.,nweeu -Colonel Monti,-;"may may and Captain Alacnamara, at Chalk
Mr. Baron GAP.Row said, lie was one of the Counsel in
case alluded to.

The next witness was Dr. .Darlir4, wito.was called in to st-
tend Mi. Scott, after he was wounded, but the Doctor's
deuce was not received, as it related to a declaration rnatif. blt
Mr. when there was re-440 n to believe he did not coxisid=
his wound acttetilyinortal.
The Proprietor of Chalk Farm; and one of his servants, then
deposed to the particulars of the duel, which we need not rt.Pc-nt•
There being no direct evidence against the pri7f.ner, the Ju:y+
under the direction of the Learned Judge, immediately TO'
turned'a verdict of NOT Gintr.Ty, and Mr. Patmore was itr,
mediately discharged.
The other trials that followed, were of no particular interest.
