COURT OF CHANCERY, APRIL 27.

114 TIIE MATTER OF Slit GREGORY PAGE TURNER.
Mr. Tnitst.ova apilied on the p;art of Sir Gregory
Page Turner, that lie might be at li...:erty to see at all
proper times Mr. Davidson, as his solicitor, who pur-
poses to conduct the traverse of this incrii,ition fin- Sir
Gregory. This professional Gentleman has twice been,
permitted to have an interview with Sir Gregory, but I
the Marshal of the King's Bench Prison, has now le-
fused to admit him any mote, unless by an order from
his Lordship.
Mr. PnILLIbIORE appeared for the Committee of the
teal estate, and Ater stating a few circumstances which
have been t.ften stated befo►e, he conduced by saying
it appeared that Mr. Davidson was not known to Sir
Gregory until a very few days ago, when he was sup-
posed to have been recommended to him by Mr. Tho-
mas; and if his Lordship permitted Mr. Davidson to
attend Sir Gregory, and to go on with this traverse,
which two different Solicitors have already declined (af-.

ter undertaking), he hoped that that Gentleman would
be put upon terms to proceed without delay.
His LORDSHIP said, as by the Act of Parliament, Sir
Gregory was clearly entitled to traverse if :Te thought
:prol•er, if he was inclined to do so, he could get Mr.
Davidson, or any other Gentleman, to conduct the tra-
verse for him ; and it was unreasonable to suppose that
that Gentleman should not have ample access to Sir
Gregory, which access he would now order to Mr. Da-
vidson ; and after he has for a short time enjoyed it, he
may be able to say how soon lie well can proceed with
the traverse, which was most desirable should be soon.

COURT OF KING'S 132NC11, APRIL t 7.
STOCKDALE V. TURLEY.

This was an action to recover damares for a nuisance,
Mr. C. PHILLIPS stated the case. Ile plaintiff, Mr,
Stockdale, a bookseller, has resided for four or five years
in a house at Kensington, which he rents from Mr. Lad-
broke. The defendant is a farmer, who occupies about
two hundred acres of land, near the plaintiff's premise;,
and whose farm-yard adjoins them. The defendant
tame into the possession of the fat m about six months
ago, and ever since that time Mr. Stockdale had to
complain of several nuisances, of an offensive, and some
of them of as indelicate nature. The defendant heaped
up his manure to the height of eight or nine feet, im-
mediately opposite Mr. Stockdale's dining-room win-
dows ; during all !lotus of the night the family were
disturbed by the noise of cows and men, and horns
blowing ; but this was not the worst: there mere other
nuisances, too indelicate to be mentioned, which some-
times prevented the females of the family not only
from going into the yard belonging to the house, but
they could not even sit in the back r ooms, wtach
looked into the defendant's fat rn• yard, where bulls and
The
were occasionally kept fur particular purposes.—
The eve of the defendant's barn overhangs the wall of
plaintiff's garden, and the defendant was obliged to
keep the gutter of the ham in repair. He permitted it
to go out of repair, and in comeqiience the rain water
overflowed the gutter, and ritined the apricot trees
which were beneath them. Each of these nuisances
might not in itself seem of importance, but accumulated
they were sufficient to render residence in the plaintiff's
house extremely uncomfortable. The fact was, the de-
fendant was anxious to get the house himelf, which
formerly belonged to the farm, and he ct eated the nui-
sances in question for the purpose of driving the plaintiff
out of it.—The facts having been proved in evidence,
Mr. SCARLET?, for the defendant, said, that instead
of his seeking for the plaintiff's house, it was the plain-
tiff who wished to get the defendant's farm. Mr. Stuck-
dale wished to get ground for building, near his own
house, having, it seems, no other mode at present, in
the absence of all foreign loans, for laying out his capi-
tal. lie did not succeed as he wished, in getting any
portion or the defendant's farm; and in order to render
his occupation of it unpleasant, he brought the present
action, and threatened another. The Learned Course!
endeavoured to shew that Mr. Stockdale, when he took
the house, well knew that the neighbouring yard be-
longed to the farm, and was to be used as a farm yard,
wid that the nuisances complained of were to be met
ith in every farm yard, and that none hut persons
wholly used to a town life would ever think of com-
plaining of them. He called no evidence.
me LORD CHIEF JUSTICE told the Jury that no an-
swer was given to the case, and they found for the
plaintiff in nominal damages.
