HIGH COURT OF ADMIRALTY.
SHIP HENRY, PELESICR, MASTER.
This was an appeal from the award of the Commi,•
sioners of salvage, appointed by the Lord Warden of
the Cinque Ports. This vessel was bound to Philadel-
phia, when on the night of the 18th, or nmrning of the
19th August, 1821, she got on the Girdler Sand, on the
coast of Kent ; sh was discovered at daylight by :lace
smacks and a boat, containing in the whole twenty-five
men, who assisted the Henry's crew in getting her off,
and at two o'clock on the same day she was got safely
into Margate iliads. A commission s% as appointed to
award whatever sum might be necessary for the meris
labour, when they declared the stun of 320/. being one-
eighth part of the valve of the ship, was a snfficient re-
muneration.—Against this decision the owners of the
Henry aorealed.
Drs. ADAMS and Lusnreo-rott supported the appeal,
and Drs. JEWNER and Jessz ADAMS appeared on behalf
' of the twenty-five men.
Lord STowELL delivered Lis judgment—" It doe; ap-
pear to me that the award is too much ; not that any
blame attaches to the Commissioners, because they were
affected by the story of the ship's being in a state of ex-
treme peril and danger, and bad received gteat injury,
whereas upon a subsequent survey the it jery she re-
ceived was very trifling ; she got on the san,k by the
Captain's ignorance of the coast, and whca men
fell in with her, they gave no extraordin U ^ as :,tance;
it was only a summer morning's work, no :,vere wea-
ther, and by their labour, in conjunction with the cre.A.,
she was got off and moored in Margate neads. Where
persons have been employed in dangerous weatlie:', in
'cases of extremity, then they (night to be weil consi-
dered; but under the circumstances 1 adjudge, that
1231. instead of 820/. is a sufficient sum for the men
employed."
