of Oxford, enjoining him to fettle Mr. Ifitac Knight,
as Curate of a Pettit within the Ri _ht Re*. Prelate's
Diocefe, fhuuld not be quashed on the ground of in.
fulficiency in the allegation ; no Ipecial right, of whirls
Mr. Knight bad been deprived, having, as was ne-
edam been particularized. It was only Rated that
he (Mr. Knight) ought to have been included, and
that be had been appointed by the pari(hioners. It
was not however dated, that the Living had been
endowed, without which fuch an appointment was
not good, without the confent of the hector; neither
was it al edged that the Rector had given Inch coo-
fent. No caufe bad been Ihewn agatinft the Rule

miliatement, and inifreprefentation of fags. The
perfon WAS impreffed in Oa. t 834, and the applies•
non for the Habeas Corpus, was not made to the
Court till IA term. The apology for this was the
conilant abfence of the flip at fea, fince the period
of Crerar's being impreflid. On inquiry, however,
the faa was found to be, that the flip had 'not
been out of port more than three months of that
period. But, in addition to this, it was afeertained
that in 58c5, Crerar, being then one of the car-
penter's ..rew, applied for, and obtained, the rank of
carpenter's mate, by which he received an inereafe

that improvide rrnanavd ? You had better at once put
the axe to the root of the evil, by anfwering to the
Writ, that the perfon did enter, by which means the
queflion will be fairly tried."
This being eßeemed the proper mode of proceed-
ing, Mr. Jervis wok nothing by hi► motion.
