widl which Mr. Nlilner still proclaims an assertion So manifestly
untrue prevents further forbearance on the part of J. G. H. and
Co., and compels them to repeat that his attempt to invalidate
" Tann's Patent" has completely unsuccessful. In proof
of this, J. G. H. and Co. would quote the ',e; extracts

from the judgment of his honour, Vice-Chancellor Sir George
Turner, given so recently as the 15th instant, in the cause of
Milner v. Harrison. His honour says, " I have very carefully
perused the affidavits on this part of the case, and I am fully
satisfied that no order for commitment can be founded upon
it. Any comments upon these affidavits would involve obser-
vations calculated to affect the characters of the parties, and I
therefore abstain from commenting on them." His honour

lalso stated, referring. to a safe made accordinz
" This safe is proved to have been manufact.

Tann's Patent,' and the question, therefore, is, whether the
manufacture under 'Tann's Patent' is an infringement of Mil-
ner's patent. This question has not been tried in the action at
law, for it is in proof before me that the safes which formed the
subject of that action were not manufactured according to

Taiin's Patent, and, therefore, if I am to make an order for
commiqing this defendant I must do so on my own opinion,
unaided by anything which has passed at law. lam not pre-
pared to go that length ; it would be to affirm that Milner's
patent applies in all cases where the_,Rniterials interposed

between the boxes evolve steam on ing affected by heat
which is certainly not a necessar construction of Milner's
patent, nor, as I think, a nece ry corollary from what has
already passed at law. The c e cannot. I think, he put more
favourably for the plaintiff an to suppose that the action, in
this case, which was tiro t against the defendant had been
brought against Tann. d that the action having succeeded,
this bill had been fi to restrain Tann from manufacturing
according to his p ent ; and in that position of the case I
think the court weuld not have granted an injunction until after
a further trial law, even independently of the plaintiff's
conduct in h ing permitted Tann so long to continue manu-
facturing u der his patent, and certainly not after such a long
acquiescence by the plaintiff ; and, yet, what the plaintiff asks
by this motion is in effect to stop Tann's trade, by committing
Tann's agent." S. G. Harrison and Co. have only to add in
conclusion, that until Mr. Milner proves that Tann's patent is
an infringement of his patent, he is hound, in common honesty,
not to publish statements which convey most inaccurate im-
pressions. Messrs. Tann have used their patent with success
for upwards of six years, without a word of complaint from Mr.
Milner or any other party ; and, up to the present moment, all
the nroceedings taken by Mr. Milner have failed to invalidate
" Tann's Patent."
