plaintiff, Annette Toucher, was a Swiss Lady, who

seatch of a situation, and had not been there long,
ire she became introduced to the defendant on This
erd, hfr.R. P. Jodrell. He was-the more particnial
stating these points to the Jury, because an ;minia.
had been made against the plaintiff's character,

nich was entirely without foundation. In the 'year
824 Mr. Jodrell, wbo was a Gentleman of large for-
. and ancient family, a man of letters, and attached
die Eine arts, had formed an institution in Regent-
Vstreet. called the Athenaion. His object in so doing
to incorporate a Company by Royal Charter for
cultivation of the arts and sciences. Prospectuses
, were circulated by Mr. Joddrell; subscriptions (or
were paid into the hands of his banker; and he

those subscriptions. The house, in which the meet-
were held pro in:spore. was adopted by him as the
use of the Society ; alterations were made in it under

. auspices ; and the furniture was purchases! nude,
.is directions. He spent a considerablepart of his time
there, and frequented the house whenever be stood in
need of recreation and amusement. It became necessary
have a female housekeeper, and he authorised the
present plaintiff to act as such. She entered upon the
,ice, and continued in it from Jams ay 1824. to Sep-
.nsber 1825. Mr. Jodrell, who was far advanced in

, failed in obtaining a Royal Charter for his infant
association. In the latter part of 1825 and in the be.
ginning of 1826, Mr. Jodrell's mind became affected,
' it was at last thought necessary to have a
issued against him—not on account of any Muth!'
his pan, but on account of the decay of his late':
tual powers from old age. It was, however, tweets,
for him to state, that up to the period when that
commission was issued, Mr. Jodrell had the complete
management of his own affairs. In the year 1826, whim
was found that the institution could be ao longer sap.
ported, many of the persons whom he had empowerq4
to provide it with different articles sought payment of
(them from Mr. Jodrell. Many of them were paid. bet
(some of them remained unpaid, until they brought ae.
lions foe the recovery of their debts. Mrs. Toucher,
finding that the institution was at an end, demanded
lyment for her services. Mr. Jodrell professed 4reat
omeem for her, and promised that she should be paid, if
Nobody else was. He afterwards forgot that promise, and
legal proceedings were in consequence taken against-
bias. He then calledupon her attorney,Makule,aad after

. Mr. Richardson,l was acquainted in 1824 with the
;defendant. I have seen the plaintiff at the institution
in Regent-street. I had many conversations with Mr.
Jodrell on the subject of the institution, in which be
'took a very active part. I delivered the opening lecture
of the institution at the Argyll-rooms, in the Winter part
of 1824. Mr. Jodrell was present. I went several times,
in 1824 and 18281 to the institution after it was formed
in Regent-street. I met Mr. Jodrell therein the begin-
ning of 1828. 1 saw the plaintiff there. Mr. Jodrell
appeared then to be a petfectly rational man, and knew
what he was talking about.
Thomas Anderson.--I formerly held a 'halation in
the Alien Office; I went to this institution in 1824 to
superintend some business which my son had there; I
had conversations with MrJ. three severaltintes ; he told
me that be was president, and that he would pay my
son's bill, and *lithe bills; I think that 601. would be
a reasonable compensation for the service* of k house-
keeper to such an institution, who found her own board.
The plaintiff understood several languages, knit was
clear, from her accent, that she was a foreigner.
Robert Coulson.--I am master of an hotel is Lotter
Brook-street, Grosvenor-square. The plaintiff was at
my house in Sept. 1819, with two Ladies, the daughters
of Mr. Bouverie, of Northamptonshire. She was there
as a eon of governess or ladies' maid to the taro young
Ladies. They stayed at my house foe two nights

Bouverie's family* as governess for five years. Bbe

I was then servant to Mr. Bouverie's sister.

Mrs. Martin--1 know the plaintiff was governess in
Mr. Bouverie's family. When she left that family she
came to lodge with me. From my home she went to
be housekeeper in Regent-street, but I emit say in what
