COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, NOVENIBER 17.
EX PARTE MARY CRESSwELL, AN INFANT.

Mr. Serjeant WILDE moved for a itule to shew cause
why a habeas corpus should rot issue to the mother of
the infant, !glary Cresswell, commandipg her to bring
the child into Court? The motion was made on the
affidavit of the infant's testamentary guardian, which
stated that the infant was now five years old, and was
entitled, under the will of her father, to some prorrty.
This property had been bequeathed to her .mother for
life, on condition that she did not again marry. The
Lady, however, it appeared did not think fit to keep the
property on those conditions, and in consequence of her
marriage, it devolved on her child, the subject of the
prestnt application. It was alleged by the testamentary
gusidi that the child was much neglected by its
nue her, as regarded both her person and education ; and
en these grow ds, lie sought to get her, that she might be
placed under proper care.
The LORD Cum. JUSTICE remarktd, that as he under•
stood the property in this case was small, it would be
better to grant a Rule to shew cause, in order to save
the parties expense, though in strictness the Learned
Counsel was entitled to the habeas corpus.

Rule to skew Cant granted.

JAMES LITTLE, TRADING UNDER TIIE FIRM OF ANNE

TH"NIPZON AND CO. V. ARTHUR FRENCH!, ESQ.
Mr. WA I.LACE applied to the Court on behalf of the
defendant, feu a conditional code', to set aside the ver-
dict which was obtained by the plaintiff in this cause,
at the Sittings after last Trinity Tern), on the ground
that such verdict was contra' y to law and evidence, and
the damages given to the plaintiff excessive. The action
had been brought by the plaintiff, who is a milliner, to
recover the value of a quantity of jewellery, millinery,
and other expensive articles furnished to the Lady of
the defendant, and a verdict of 9481. damages had been
pronounced in the plaintiff's favour. It was to be ob-
served, that the articles which formed the ground of
that action, had been furnished to the wife of the de-
fendant without his consent or knowledge, and at a
time when the Lady was known by the plaintiff to be
living apart from her husband, and when he also knew
that a provision of 8001. a year was made for her, and
was at all times ready for her acceptance ; the plaintiff
having been apprised of these pat Oculars, and having
rece,sed a caution not to give the Lady credit. It
would appear, on examination of the nature of the
articles, that they could not possibly be construed as
necessaries.

The COCKT granted the conditional rule.
Dlr. Wat.t.act begged to add, that in the space of four months,
no less than £5OO worth of jewellery and Castle dresses had been
ordered by Dlrs. French.
Dlr. CKAMPTON observed, that it wculd be rather alarming to
Gentlemen to find it decided by the verdict of a Jury that it was
tirce,sary•tor their Ladies to have three Castle dresses for one night.
Dlr. WALLace—Yes, and wear them all on the same night.
Dlr. Serjeant GooLs said he would engage to uphold the verdict.
