ir R. WILKINSON, Manufacturer to the
!JP • Hon. Board of Ordnance, and the Hon. Corpora-
tion of London, 63, Upper Thames-street, and at the
I,C,rks , Sorry Canal Bridge, Kent•road, begs particularly
at this Season, to recommend this valuable and economical
Article, which is patronised by the principal Nobility,

for all exterior purposes of Painting on Wood, Iron, Cop-
per, Lead, Stucco, Roman Cement, and Tiling, to repre-
sent Slates, or any other substance, being equal to Stone
when dry. It resists damp, water, or marine acid, pre-
venting iron from rusting, not blistering with the sun, nor
can it be rubbed off. This Paint will corer equally well
on rough boards as smooth, thereby preventing the expence
of planing ; and will last considerably longer than any
other Paint. It may be had in Casks of 56 lbs. or 112 lbs.
with the prepared Oil, proper Brushes, and Directions for
use (which are so simple, that any person can use it.) The
Public are particularly cautioned against any Colors that
may be imposed upon them for the Genuine Anti-Corrosion.l

RICHFIELD V. PEAKS.
This was an issue directed by the Master of the
Rolls to try the validity of a deed of gift, by whichl
the plaintiff claimed to be entitled to a certain estate
in this comity called Bowers.
Mr. TAUNTON, with whom was Mr. RICHARDS,
shortly detailed the following facts. The plaintiff,
John Highfield, resided at a place called Mill Miest,
in this county. He was formerly tenant of the estate
that he now claimed, which he rented of an old gen-
tleman of the name of Ward. Mr. Ward was a man
advanced in years, and although he had many rela-1
tives, appeared to have taken a fancy to the plaintiff,7
whom he employed to perform all the work that
was required for the management of the farm on
which Mr. Ward dwelt. The intimacy produced:
from the constant attendance of the plaintiff on Mr.
Ward, had created such a degree of regard in the
mind of Mr. Ward, that in September, 1818, with a
view to provide for the plaintiff's large family, he
caused a deed of gift to be prepared, by which he
conveyed the estate in question to the plaintiff. The
Jury would be told, no doubt, that the deed in ques-i
'don was not. prepared by Mr. Ward's regular attor-;
ney, and that that circumstance alone was sufficient
to engender suspicion • but they would find that he
had applied to the professional gentleman generally
employed by Mr. Ward, but in consequence of his
absence from home, or some such reason, the plain-
tiff was unable to get the deed drawn. It was not
to be supposed that a person in the plaintiff's situa-
tion in life would evince mutn delicay on such a
subject. tie was anxious to secure for himself and
a numerous' family independence, which he thought
would be a sufficient excuse for his applying to artH
other person. Accordingly, he went to a man of
the name of Green, who practised as a conveyancer,
and by him the deed was drawn, which was the sub-
ject of their present inquiry. The Learned Coun-
sel, after detailing the nature of the evidence he
should produce, concluded by calling the following
witnesses :
William Highfield, brother to the plaintiff, said—
I knew the late Joseph Ward for 40 years. My
fatlipr lived at Bowers ever since Ward bought it,
and my b:2ther succeeded him. Ward died in 1819.
I remember, in September, 1818,
_going with ,ny

brother to Ward's house, at Mill-Miest : when we
arrived there, we found Ward and 'William Brown
together. My brother produced the deed in ques-
tion, saying, " I have brought the deed." Ward
said, " Thee bast not put any thing in it. but
Bowers." My brother said he had not. Ward

then desired Brown to go and fetch Wm. Hawley, a
friend of Ward's, to witness the deed. Brown re-
turned with Hawley. Ward then desired Hawley
to look at the deed, and see if it was all right, and
nothing in it but " Bowers." When Hawley read
'over the deed, and came to the words rough
meadow, Ward said, " rough enough, I reckon."
Ward then put his mark to the deed, and delivered
it as his act and deed. Hawley and I also signed it
as witnesses. The plaintiff wrote his name under
:the seal, but was told there was no occasion for it.
Sarah Bragley, Ward's housekeeper, was there.
After it was done, Hawley said it was a good job
Ward had given Bowers to Highfield, as he had a
big family. I went away, leaving the deed on the
table ; some beer was ordered, but I did not stay
for it.
Win. Brown—l live at Mill-Miest, and knew the
late Joseph Ward; he was about 81 years of age
when he died, and was very infirm for ten or twelve,
years before. I used to sleep in the same room
with him, and a nephew of his, to take care of
him. I knew the plaintiff John Highfield; he lived
at Bowers, and was very intimate with Ward ; he
'was his tenant, and Highfield's family did all Ward's

tempted establishment of ti forgd instrument, was
supported by a tissue of perjury. The Learned!
Counsel then proceeded to detail the evidence he
should produce on the part of the defendant,
4whereby it Would be proved that Ward, by different
lwills up to the time of his death, had provided for
Ithe Peakes, by bequeathing them his estates of,
Bowers and Mill Miest, subject to certain legacies;
1 that it was not until Ward's death that the plaintiff
lever thought of claiming the Bowers estate; that the
plaintiff then offered 100/. to the clerk of Ward's at-
torney to get him a deed of gift drawn, which was
Irefused ; that in Sept. 1819, he at last succeeded in
.;.
betting a deed of gift drawn, engrossed, and stamped,
and though the deed now produced was not the.
deed which he had thus obtained, yet it was an
exact copy, word for word, actually containing the
very inaccuracies of the first. It was impossible,
continued the Learned Counsel, to suppose this was
the effect of a miracle. He, Mr. Campbell, should

feel it his duty to apply to his Lordship, that the'
deed in question be impounded to answer the pur-
poses of justice.
' W. Lock), said, I was clerk to Mr. Batterton, an
attorney, residing at Market-Drayton ; Mr. Batter-
ton was employed for the late Mr. Ward : during
that period several wills were prepared for him. He
used to make his mark instead of writing his name.
I think the mark to the deed is like the cross he
used to make. I knew also Mr. Hawley, the attest-

ing witness to this deed. I don't think this is his
hand-writing. In 1818, the plaintiff asked me to
prepare a deed of gift of the Bowers estate for him.l
I asked him if he had brought me Ward's instrucH
tions, as if not I must go to him for instructions
first. Hs said I must not do that, I must prepare
the deed, and he would get it executed himself. I

said I could :..ot do that. He said if I did he would
give me 1001. I still refused. He came again to
the office about a month after, and again asked me
Ito prepare the deed. I said he had better see Mr.
Batterton. He refused to do that, and said if I did
not prepare it, he would be -- if he did not get
Ilsomebody else to do it. I had orders before Ward's

death to distrain on Mr. Highfield for rent.
Henry Gray produced the will of Joseph Ward
from the Court of the Bishop of Lichfield, whereby
he gave the estate of Bowers and Mill-Miest to John
and Joseph Peale, subject to the payment of legacies
to the extent of 5001. on each.

Thomas Manly, a visiting clerk, residing at New-
castle, said, that in September, 1819, he met the
plaintiff, Highfield, in Newcastle. He asked me to
(make him a deed of gift; I said I was not an attor-
ney, but took him to one, where he gave instructions
for a deed of gift, for conveying the Bowers estate
to him ; he never came for it. He told me, on part-
ing, not to mention it to any one.
Mr. Ralph Lea, in 1819, was clerk to Mr. Pres-
ton, an attorney, of Burslem ; in September, 1819,
plaintiff came to me at Hanley, and wanted a
deed prepared, from a person named Ward to him-
self; I requested him to go over to Mr. Preston, at
Burslem. The deed was drawn according to the
draft I now produce; it was dated the 16th of Sep-
tember, 1819, and by Highfield's direction the date
was altered to the 11th of September, 1818; he
said he wanted it to agree with another deed.
Mr. Preston proved that he received instructions
from the plaintiff to prepare a deed of gift in Sep-
tember, 1819.
