INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, %court 14.

- - -
The Rev. Henry Lloyd, Doctor of Divinity, and Re-
gius Professor of Hebrew in the University of Cam-
bridge, was opposed by a person named Jolly.
The opposing creditor stated that be is a compositor,
and keeps a boarding-house in Bride-lane, Fleet-street.
In the early part of February last the insolvent and his
daughter came to his house and engaged apartments at
ore guinea a week, including attendance; beyond which
they were to pay for their board ad raloreln, at so much
per diem—(A laugh). The insolvent informed witness
that he enjoyed the living of Davenbam, and re-
ceived an emolument from his Professorships at Cam-
bridge. Beyond which witness was given to under-
stand that be received 401. a year from the Lords of the
Admiralty for sacerdotal duties. At first the insolvent
paid regularly, but in the course of a little time be apo-
logized that he could not pay until he received some
money, from the Accountant• General, which had been
decreed to him by the Court of Chancery. This, coupled
with the former representations, induced the witness to
extend his credit. When he became pressing for mo-
ney the insolvent gave him two bills for la. each ; but
on the evening before the first became due he sent a
note, stating that he was going to surrender to the
Fleet Prison.

The insolvent denied that he ever made the represen-
tation attributed to hint, relative to the Living and Pro-
fessorship, for it was notorious that they had been both
sequestered se►eral years ago. With respect to the Chan.
cery property, a dekree had been made that his daugh-
ter should have 1,5001. and upwards, and the Court for
some,dme past had allowed her 601. a year for support.
Mr. Commissioner BOWILN said brat he did not see
that Mr. Jolly had adduced evidence sufficiently strong
to warrant the Court to detain the petitioner; neverthe-
less it appeared necessary that some information should
be given relative to the Chancery property, because it
might turn out that the insolventhada life interest in it.

Ti.o insolvent was then remanded, in order to file the
particulars relative to the Lord Chancellor's decree;
a ter which the Court will pronounce him discharged.
ii /limn Rodney Chambers, Esq. was opposed by Mr.
Putt.. CIC, on behalf of Messrs. Galway and Son, and
several other creditors, principally resident in Ireland.
It appeared from the insolvent's petitioo, that during the
time the debts on his schedule were contracted he had
been attached to the army, and resided at a number of
places. The petition stated him to have been formerly
of Ifydevark barracks, and of Spain and Portugal,
Lieutenant of the Ist Regiment of Life Guards; then of
the city of Paris, gentleman; of Osford street; Cornet
in the 23d Regiment of Light Dragoons, on half pay ;
of New S'ulth Wales and Van Diensan's Land, Cornet
in the 11th; and of Crown•strret, Westminster, Cornet
irt the 21st Regiment 4 Light Dragoons.
Mr. COMER (who held Mr. Pollock's brief) stated, that
it was not the intention of the creditors to have the
insolvent examined before the Court on the present
occasion; he (Mr. Cooke) was, therefore, oast' ucted to
apply to the Court to 11`ave the case referred for investi-
gation before chef Provisional Assigm e, at bis chambers,
in order for that Gentleman to report upon the matters
contained in the schedule, on such day. as the Court
might be pleased to order.
Court granted the application, and ordered the insolvent to
be L•rorght up again un the 30th instant.
