TLC ATTORNi VGE FR AL moved for r. Rot'le to
thew carte: at'. there fhould not be a new :t ia I in
the cattle of HAYLRArT V. CREASY, AViIMI Is • cod
was tried before Lord lit a yov, and a Speci tl jo.
ry, in Guildhall, London, in July hut. It was an
ation, he faid, agaiiilk the Defendatit, lei a::..1.
'edged fraudulent reprefelitation made by ::in,
and concerning the charaner, credit, and ci• cum.
(lances of perfon of the name of Kober l•a, A
lady who then retitled at a fplendid t•l.t • in the
neighbourhood of Greenwich, w ho had cato:.d it t
be believed there, that (he had then lately come to a
very large fortune by the death of het Plat:t.::•, in
Scotland, which the accompanied by the ri tit it •-f
a variety of circomflatices, which enabled Ilsr to
impofe on her E.tighbours, and obt it n credit of
them to a large amount ; among titefe deluded
people was the root Currier, the D-.1-etulant •1i this
caufe, and he became her creditor to tilt atncont
of zocol. This Lady, arnongil many ilt
gave out, that the became petretfed of tile Fateally
Ellate, in Szotnni, which the laid was of great
value :—She %. tit throut•h tile ccremony rt ap.
pointing a Receiver of the Rem., of it, had a plan
drawn of the pieloreittie beauty of it, the wr.od
and lawns, and lomt; tt ees file pointed out as pro.
per to be cut down, in order to afford a better
profpal of the river. a hich ran thrtaigli it. She
executed a Power of :•kt:orney 1.4- a rei;..n to re-
ceive, for her, the arrears of rent due ition crane
part of the Fafeally I::tlate, which, from Inc•
uncommon cattle, had remained unpaid for
forty years. Upon the ilrenth of thine talcs,
the obtained credit to a vat' anicsatt. One
poor woman lent her gcot out of the money the
had in the Funds. In (hart, moll of her neigh.
boors were taken in by this adventurer, and the
only perfon who, by accident, efcaped the common
misfortune of giving her credit, was a Gentletnan
in the neighbourhood of the name of Cator. The
poor Defendant, the Currier, had tottered to the
tune of about 2cool. and the Jury found a verdiet
againft him in this action, making him liable for
the fum which the Plaintiff (an upholder in the
neighbourhood) had log among the reft, on ac-
count of the credit st hit+ he gave tether on the fails
(as he allcdged by his anion), of the charaaer
given of this woman by the unfortunate Defen-
dant :—Now, the ArrnRNEY GENERAL laid, the
point which he would lubmit to the Court was
this—"c That this Defendant was hinifell deceived
in the charaaer of this woman; and the quell ion
was, whether he took upon himfelf to aver know-
ledge of her ciremallances, whether he had know-
ledge of the fiefs he fitted, and it he had not, End
believed what he laid, whether that thottld be
taken as an csctui: fir hint in anfwer to the c'aim
of the Plaintiff in this igtion, who had given
credit upon the Defendant's reprefentation, and
had fuftained the lois to the amount of that
credit ?"

This cafe, he ftid, did not rang^ under
any of the decifions which had taken plac.: in
Courts of Law upon the lubjca of credit given
on the Itrength of charader and lois afterwards
fntlained, inch as the cafe of Pafeley v. Freeman,
which was the firil, and of Eyre and Drummond,
which was alfo a well known cafe, for in their and
others in which the Plaintiffs had recovered, it ap-
peared that the charnel t r was given with intention
to deceive the party who enquited after it. In
this cafe there was the abfence of fuck
The queitien hfie, he fubmitted, was, IVle.ther a
man who only Arms what he knows, cr thinks he
knows, of another, Drill be liable to an Aaron, if
he !hall happen to be miltake❑ in that cafe, and
another lhall fullain a lots he giving credit on the
faith of it ? Nov:, a man flys that he knows a
thing, from a high probability of it as it appears
to hint, for real and abfolute knowledge of the
cireumnances of another no man could poiTefs.
If a man lays fairly what he believes of another,
it was all he could dr. (Jima thcfe ci::trnitances
he fubmitted there ought to be a new ::ial.

Lord KFIVION.—" Take a Ride to ilieW (Mai.
I dare lay your recollettion of the cafe is full and
corral, but I will read to you %%hat I hare marked
down in my note at the trial. Th.: Witn.:Cs raid
that the Defendant laid," I can politireiy, of my
own knowledge, adore you, You may credit MOS
Robcrtlou to any amount with pet-test ftEt)." I
took them down as I have read them tt• sou, and
I have marked them.--Rule to thew C tt 1 granted.
