femience of fuch pt ii ical comitiet on the probabilioy
of this infant being let or art being left io this cram-
try. His lairdfhip (aid, thei e had been in this cafe a
;peat vatiety of affidavits with regard to the parti-
••
color circtimaances that took place when this child
was taken the fitll and fecund time out of the cutler-
dy of its mother. The number and lengthole, ef thefe
affidavits, were extremely oppiellive to th
wete parties to the admmittration of juilice; and
he wiflnal he could make forne third perfons defray
all the expence of them. Nine tenths of themlwete
foreign to this application.
His Lordthip laid, the angle queflion before him
was to decide what was to be done with the perfun
of this child ? It was no part hf his duty to fay whe,
ther there was a greater or a leis degree of guilt on.
the one fide or the other, or whether any of the par. •
ties were innocent? Ha had nothing to do with that;
Much lefs did it fall within his province to fay hove
far this gentleman was or was not an alien. That
ought to be left to thole whnfe bufinefs it was to at•
tend to (itch matters. But, to do him juftice, it was
impotlible to deny that the affidavits brought forward
were very hrong tellimony in favour of Mr. De Man.
neville's•contlii3 as a peacethle perfon at kali living
under the prote3ion of thi. country. But he had no.
thing to do with that, except as it might have more
or tell:. influence on the fate of this infant, except in
fo tar as it might be connected with a greater or lefs
probability that this child might be fume time car-
' tied out of the country.
His Lordthip obferved, that an extreme degree of
jealouly pervaded every part of the marriage fettle-,
ment between there parties. Nothing was left to th
hnour, generofity, or good nattne of this gentle-
maon, but this lady, g
bound hint with parchment
hand and foot.
His Lorelfhip laid, there was one circumflance
that ought by no means to be overlooked in this cafe,
and that was, that this gentleman was.an alien, born
in a count' y which at this moment was in a hate of
holtility with Great Britain. That was a circum-
flame of great weight, confidering what the effect of
his return to France mutt have on his individual
charader as bound up in the national charader, if be
did return to hisnative country. His Lordthip pro.
duced ample authorities in fupport of the jurifdidion
of that Com tin this cafe, and the found ition of that
jurifelietion was the comfort and ha pints of the
children who were wards of that Court.
His Lordthip thought, in the prefent fituatinn
lof this child, it was extremely difficult not to
interpofe, at the fame time that it was extremely.
difficult to fay that he fhould interpofe. It
was difficult not to interpofe looking at Mr. De
Manneville, who as an alien will reference to thist
child, and giving him full credit for every thing lie
had Elated. He laid he did not with to inflame what
had been already too much inflamed. He had en-
deavoured to bellow on this cafe an impartial atten-
tion, and he did not feel LlT.ftlf at•libetty in the due
execution of his duty, 'Ton his jadicial oath, what-
ever might he the differences that had taken place
between ii,efe parties, not to look at this child as in
fotre c
unttdegree of danger of being removed out of this
y. And that brought liim to what Lord Mat.
clesfield laid in the Shaftefhory cafe, it was the duty
of the Count to itit.rfere,and to ad upon filch double.
He laid he was quite clear that Mr. De Manneville
mull he reflrainest from taking the pet fon of this child,
not of this country. If Mr. De Manneville thould give
fecurity that he would not take the child out of the
country, then it would be conlidei ed what the Court
ought to do. If he did not give fectuity, the Court
would Ails have to fay what WA% to be done. HisLord-
(hip faid, he did not rightly underhand the letter the
mother left behind her when the went tram her honfe.
Rating to the father, that the watild have left the
child, had it been able to walk without its mother.
Mr. R ost mar attempted to explain it by hating,
thy: it was a letter written by Mrs. De Manneville in
a great hurry.
The Lotto Citawcasaott wifhed to fee the letter,
but it was not in Court. His Lordfltip gave the par-
ties till Monday morning to come to fame amicable
arrangement, and that if they did not, he would he
then prepared to fay how the infant was to be dif-
puled of. His Lordthip fail, he wifhed particularly
to throw out this, that the whole object of thefe pro-
ceedings, whether legal r r illegal, whether proper or
improper, was to get poffetiion of the perfon of this
child : he th night it would be an aufpiciotis begin-
ning of the good effect of this propofed arrangement
(to which the Learned Catinfel on both 'sides teemed
to have no ohjedion), if :hey were to hear no .

(late of inespreffilile m Ivy, by having the children
torn from his or her CATC and priltation. His
Lordlhipi obferved that this petition had been fol-
lowed by a raft variety of affidavits, daring cir.
con:flames either in affirmance of the truth, or in
denial of the truth of the allegations in the petition,
and dating alto a great number circumllances,
perhaps 'net very relevant to the prayer of the peti-
tion. He did not wonder it Iliad be In on the part
of the Defendant, who was a roreiguer, and had to
defend him! If againa this petition. But the affida,
vas on the part of the Petitioner had reprefented
lets
cumflances in language,' which occafionally was
grave, and lefs fober than the language of affidavits
ought to be, and which Courts of Judiee looked at
whh firtisfalion, when they faw.slry Lifts need in
very fober and temperate language. The jorifdiSion
of the Court of King's Bench ST:A{111116 'CIS extedive
over this fubjce than the Court of Chancery, which
pofteffed a delegated authority, which might be repre-
fented to odll in the King as Pater Atria, and which
appeared to his Lot-ell:hip to rade ors that Court, re.
ptCfClTting his Nlajelly. That very unhappy circnro-
dances had taken place during this marriage, there
was no doubt. How nee:atoned i Mr. De Manne-
ville had reprefented hinifelf as Coffering under the
confequences of them, withiiut its being .poffible for
any *Jody truly to reptefent that he had been the
author of them. Mrs. De Manneville, on the other
hand, if he was to pay attention to her affidavit, (and
whether he was or not he did not mean to decide the
and others who had made affidavit', reprefented that
the unfortunate circumitances which had taken olacelin
this family were to be attributed to him. His Lordfhip
laid, he would nct go intothe particularsof the account
they had given of the cattle of this misfortune, either
on the one fide or the other, becaufe his duty was to
attend to this difpnte between hatband and wife. no
farther than it might be material for him to look at
it, with reference to to much of the prayer of this Pe-
tition as regarded the carrying the wife out of the
country ; and to to much of it, as regarded the inter-
tits of this infant. His Lordfhip lard, he c•Juld not
help dating, that his mind was extremely (iruck with
the manner in which Mr. Bell had put It to him to
confider what he ought to do; regard being had to
this as a cafe, in which the parties are reprelented
to be draggling with reference t' this olijea. It is
ftrongly repretented that Mrs.Crompton, the mother,
particularly, and Mrs. Dv Manneville, the wife, were
struggling to compel a reparation, and a lading le-
paration, between Mr. and Mrs. De Manneville :
and on the other hand, it had been reprefented
that Mr. De Manneville bad been endeavouring
by what Al caked DTA to produce a repa-
ration, but for the purpore of getting hold of the
property, which the marriage fetlement had been
Co extremely careful to withdraw fr.'m his hands,
and what Mr. Bell raid was exceedingly true, that
the Court of Chancery mutt find arch' under very
great difficulties, when it was called upon to confider
whether the criadat, either of an hufband or a wife,
was fuch as would jellify an aStral reparation; and
the fag of an &anal reparation ought to be is proof
before the Court: And by the law of this country, the
contra!!! of 111411i.ge wis entered into for heVer and
for work, and was indiffoluble in a drifter fenfe than
Mr. Bell dated it. In this cafe, nothing but an Aa
of Parliament could produce a feparation, a vismde
retrimanii. If a certain cafe could have been made out,
the Ecelefiadical Court could only produce a fe2ara-
dun, a atria et thorn. His Lorilfb;p ohferved, he bad
no authority to bring Alm ManneviN borne to her
hatband, but he had a power of hr nging her home,
either by a Habeas Corpus, in the Dona of King's
Bench, or by ii'iituting a fort for the rclloration of
conjugal tights. Whatever I may feel, laid his Lord-
Ship, as an individual, in relation to Mr. or Mrs. De
Manneville. I am bound to confider Mrs. De
Manneville as living in circumflarces, in which the
law will not permit her to live. And it comes then
to be a very material confider:llion. when one of the
objects of this petition is to take this child nu: of the
curtody of the father, and to place it in the cutlody
of the mother, I am not at liberty. The mother is
not living with the father according to the oW:wt..
tion the v,.ltin:atily impofed em herfclf at the Altar
of Cr.to by her marriage contract; and which obli-
gation lam hound to confider as Dill erifting. And
when I am ei7Midcring the prayer of this petition to
take the child out of the cialiody of the father. I am
to tic. 11%9, that this is an appikatit.n made to the
Court by a wife living in an attual unauthorifed fe-
parati.rn from her bidband. I cannot confider this
but as a czparattrin which is or.: permitted by the 1 tw.
Ir. this visor of the fubjea, nine tenths of the affida-
vits ate iir:levant."
