of the witnetfes thought he deferred two or three
hundred pounds more for it. The figures is dill
compofition were all portraits, and, as copied by
the Plaintiff were ftrong likeneffes of the originals.
Mr. Easaiws, in ti.e courfe of a very elegant{
opening on the part of the Defendant, oliferved,,
thatMr.Copley was a fubjed of the United States
of America, and tame over to this country in the •
year 1774. About that period, the great. Earl,
of Chatham, who had long retired from public lift',
made his appearance again t and, to ufe the hut:•

Tarty that a granger in oar land, who felt a tuft.;

fa tion in being able to avail himfelf of a &Ned.
to excite the attention of the prefent age, and to
make him defcend with the greaten trio to the
latch pone; it y.
The Connfel, after Rating what he conceived to
be the law on this fajta, and after many obfer-
vations on the evidence on the part of the Plaintiff,
in order to hew that the Ilaintiff had not fulfilled
his contrad, called fourteen *metres who were .
Engravers or Painters—Sir William Beechy, Mr.,
,Cofivay, Mr. Copley, jun. Mt. Welt, Ur. Hope.
tier. Sir Francis Bourgeois, Mr. Holloway,
:Ptah Boyden, Mr. Duncan, Mr. Fitler, Mr: Col-;lin,
lin, and Mr. Opie. The fubtlance of ' their evi-
dence was, that this being an hi(torical cotnpo-
fition on a modern fubjea, all the figures that were
introduced (and there were near 6o of them) were
portraits. The great circumnance that recom-,
mended the original piaure was the liketteffes of
the figures introduced. In proportion as the like,
IWks were thong, the public at large admired it*
and in proportion as it was deficient in that, they
condemned it. When futh a comporition went
abroad, foreigners not being fo much interelted itl
the likeneffes of the figures introduced, attended
chiefly to the executive power and compofttion of
the *miff. The witnefes raid the ,Print of the.
Plaintiff was extremely deficient in the likeneles
of the figures, and from the talte and abilities with
which other parts of the Print were executed, it
was fuppofed that this defea proceeded more from
Rant of attention than of full in the Plaintiff—
that Mr. Copley could not take and pnblifh the
Feint continently with a doe attention to his own
aliantaer and reputation—that it was the dirty of
ea Engraver, who engaged to copy a Print, to copy
eorreeily and accurately the likeneffes, and front
the defe4 of this Print in that refpea, it could be
of no fervice to the Defendant.
The Counfel for the Plaintiff in reply contended,
that die Plaintiff had fully performed his eontraa.
The Defendant was acquainted with his abilities
from his having aMiled Bartolozri in the fir
ft
plate. to whom he gave aOOO/. and as he. engaget
with the Plaintiff for 8001. it clearly fliewedfrom
the inferior price, that he mutt have expelled an
inferior performance ; and it had been proved by
thofe that were acquainted with the Plaintiff's
works, that this Print was the ben thineffe had
ever executed.
