COURT OF Cll/1 any, NAY

.THE PORTSIIIO,IMI CAM&
Mr. ATTORNEY-GENERAI. reminded big Lordship
that a petition in the matter of Lord Portsmouth, a
lunatic, was put in the paper to be heard last Tues-
day, but the press of business had prevented-it.
Mr. HEALD then stated, there was also a -petition
before his Lordship, praying for leave to referit to'
the Master to approve of a settlement for Lady Porte-
mouth, as she was without the means of subsistence.
His LORDSHIP.—I do not think, Mr. Heald, I can
make any order on that petition at all. You state in
' your petition various deeds, but 1 cannot take deeds
of a marriage settlement into consideration in mattets
of lunacy. I can make no order on your petition,'
until it is laid before.me, what kind of a maintenance
is approved of by the Master for Lord Portsmouth,
regard being had to all cifcumstances and his family.
I do not mean to say, that you may not enter into an
arrangement out of Court, but I cannot make any
'order just now. •
M. ATTORNEY-GENERAL wished his friend, Mr.
Heald, to remember, that there had been advances of
money made to Lady Portsmouth.
Mr..Hitat.d admitted that his solicitor hail just in-
formed him that there had been advances of money
to her Ladyship made since the lunacy was found ;
but that he had never heard of that before, and as
,that had keen the case, and from the few words his
Lordship had now said„.he thought it would be agree-
' able to all parties to let it stand over for the present.
' Mr. SHADWELL wished to know if the Court was
not pleased at present to confirm the Master's Report
as affected Lord Portsmouth ?
His LORDSHIP—NO, i do not; and I will tell you
why I doubt very much that what Is reported to ,
sufficient for his Lordship's maintenance and attend-
ance is sufficient.
Mr. SHADWELL submitted, that as that was the case,
and as Mr. Coombe had been appointed the commit-
tee ad interim, tliat of course be should continues°
till his Lordship made an order to. the contrary.
His LoadsulP—Yes. I will see Mastet Courtenay
oo Saturday about it.. But at present fny opinion is,
that a committee residing in •London, as this gentle-
man resides, considering the nature-of hit residence,
'egally do not think the personal attendance of Lord
Portsmouth can be sufficiently provided' for by this
very respectable clergyman.
' 11r. WETHEREI4. stated that all that had been"
very fully considered before the Master.
His LORDSHIP-:—I do not think it necessary at pre-
sent to state the grounds of int opinion, thoughl
I should hive nogreat objection to do so,iffisere anted.
