rENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY. Dec. 24.
PEARLS V. lIROWN—NIUDGMENT.
Zechariah Brown was entitled to an annuity of 931.
arising out of the residue of an estate left him by his
father. Being distressed for want of money, a sum of
-2001. was raised, and advanced by the plaintiff, for
which Brown granted an annuity of 371. a year. The
annuity was secured by warrant of attorney, and deeds
of covenant. No notice was given to the trustees;
There was alto another transaction with a person of
the name of Sheariug, by which another annuity was
granted. and no notice of this was given to the
trustees; these transactions took place in 1808. The
annuities were regularly paid till 1811; in 1,812 Mr.
Brown publicly aches tised his interest for sale. Mall, one
-of the defendants in the suit, was attracted by the ad-
vertisement, and entered into a treaty for and od-
-snarly purchased the interest. Afterwards it was ascer-
tain& that the property bad been previously assigned,
and then the present suit was instituted to ascertain the
priorities. Upon the case coming before Sir Thomas
Palmer, the Master of the Rolls, he was of opinion that
the plaintiff had not a right to come into a Court of
Equity to enforce his claim, no notice having been given
to the parties of the existence of prior incumbrances.—
It was urged at the bar that there was no authority for
such a decision. There certainly was no specific case,
kett the case of Wright-and Lord Dorchester approached
it. His Lordship went at some length into the facts
of the case, and in conclusion observed-that be con-
curred entirely with the judgment pronounced in the
Court below, from which this was an appeal.
LOVRRIDOE V. cooraa.
The Lotus CHANCPLLOR thought it right that he should
also give judgment in this case, into the particulars of
*bite it was unnecessary to go, the same points being
raised as in the case of Deltic and Brown, and it would
therefore follow that the Court should pronounce the
Game decision.
WINTER V. LORD ANSON.
Judgment was also given in this case, the particulars
of which have been so frequently before the public that
it is unnecessary to repeat them. His Ludship eons.
firmed the judgment of the Court below.
COURT OF KING'S BENCH.. GorsonaLs, Dec. 24. •
CLEASIT V. ROBINS.
This was an action by the administrator of a Gentle.
man of the name of Cleasby, against Mr. George Ro-
bins, the auctioneer, of Covent garden, to recover 5001.
deposit and interest, under the folloiing circumstances.
In Jane 1825 the late Mr. Cleasby became the pur-
chaser, for 9,0001. of an estate near Stroud, in Glou-
cestershire, which was put up for sale by auction by
the defendant. In the particulars of sale the property
was described as a capital freehold infestment, consist-
ing of I residence and 261 acres of land, producing at
low hats nearly 4801.—estate freehold, and land tax re-
deemed. On-signing the contract for the purchase, the
plaintiff paid the defendant 5001. as past of the deposit
money. An abstract of title being afterwards delivered
on the part of the vender, it was found that the title
began with a will, in which certain freehold and lease-
hold estates were devised ; but none of the subsequent
title deeds distinguished the leasehold from the freehold
property. The abstract being laid before a conveyancer,
Mr. Cleasby was advised that the title was not a good
one ; notice was then given to the vender that the title
cou:d not be accepted, unless the obscurities appearing
on tire face of the abstract. were remoied: The title
was nor, however, completed; and Mr. Cleasby, after
;waiting some time, brought his action against the pre-
sees defendant (Mr. Robins) to recover the 5001. paid to
him under the contract for sale. Mr. Cleasby having
since died, the present action was brought by his edits*.
nistrator, who now claimed, in additton to the 5001.
interest upon that sum front the dine the first ictien
was brought.
Rvidente having been given of these facts,' Mr. F.
Pi.eeoeit,for the defendant, submitted that the plaintiff,
if he bad any cause of action, ought to have sued the
'redder, and cot the defendant, the auctioneer, who
knew nothing of the state eif the title, and bad paid the
auction 'duty out of the 5001. The vender had also
brought ga action-against him to recover the 5001. and
04faction was still pending in the Court of Exchequer.
Lord TiNTERDRN was clearly of opinion that the
plaiiitiff was entitled to recover in this action. The ab-
*tract Aid not show such a titleots by the particulars and
conditions of sale the vender was bound to adduce; and
the defendant having received the money as the agent
of the vender. was the prow party to be sued.
Mr. PULLOCR submitted that the amount of the auc-
tion duty paid by the defendant ought at all events to
be dedpcttd from the 5904 but . .4
Lord TENTESIRSN thought not. tie would, low-
esera he said, give the Leagued COunsel leave to snow
to reduce Pm damages by deducting .the amount of the
auction-duty, and also the interest which his Lordships i
as at relent ‘4o,#, eras of opinion the plaigtif visas
bellied to.
Evidence was then given for the defendant, that the
vender had commenced an action against him in the
Court of Exchequer for 5901. and also for damages for
Oleg& negligence in not receiving from the purehaaar
the whole of the purchase. money.
Under the al•recttoutt of Lord TIINTERDINI the Jury
then fund lot the plaintiff—Damages, 5521. 10s.

This Wilp an *COOP IV! 1442 imprisonment. The
A plaintiff was a litten-draper at Sr. Ives, in klutuingdoo-
' visite, and' the defendants were three Commissioners
named in a commission of bankrupt again's; Messrs.

t giovoram the' statement of Sir J. itCARLETT, and tbc
EVi4121122 ton the plaintiff, it appeared that in the year
1825 a commission of bract-apt was issued egainst
Sews" S&P/ and 6.aunder.t9o/ W)Pich was iffier.. Iff4'
'superseded, the creditors having sonseotg4 in *ceps
their debts by insular-eau' the last of which was gun-
ranteed by the plaintiff. They were, however, unable
to Meet the first instalment on its Isctorriros due, 'and,
iii consequence, a second `commission was 'sated agajp,l
them on the fiGth of March, 1896. It beseg necessary
to examine the plaintiff as a witness, touching the bank-
rapes estate, the defendants, who were named as Coni.
teissicavrs, limed their summons on OP 144 of
1826, requiring the plaintiff u, appear berm theta at
Nor %etch, on Tuesday. the 18th of April, at t• n in the
morning. The plaintiff being in London, the summons
was sent to the agents of the solicitor to the cummilsiOn,
and their clerk sowed it 'upon the plaintiff in London,
es Aloncloy, the 17th of April, at five O'clock in the

,attrrnoen, tendeplng him A the slonthis a to defray
his expenses down to Norwich. The plaintiff, on re.
ceiving the summons, objected to the shortness of the
time given, stated that he was afflicted with lumbago,
and eculd not therefore travel by night ; and, also, that
he had important business to attend to in London on the
following day. The clerk who served the summons sc•
companied him, at his request, to-tis attorney, who
said he did not consider the summons legal on account
of the shortness of time allowed for the plaintiff's at-
tendance, and he also urged that the 41. which was
tendered to the plaintiff for his expenses was an ina-
dequate sum. The plaintiff expressed his willing.
ness to attend the Commissioners at the end of the
week, if they would make another appointment, sod
requested the clerk to write to Norwich to that effect,
which he promised to do. On the evening of Monday,
the 20th of April, the plaintiff was arrested by a She.
riff's officer, under a warrant, of the defendants. He
was taken the same night to Norwich, where be arrived'
about eleven o'clock on the following morning, and
was kept in custody ,at a tavern until the Commissioners
met at eight o'clock in the evening, when he was exa-
mined before them, and at eleven o'clock was dis-
charged out of custody. He subsequently brought his
action for the imprisonment, and it came on for oat at
tiuildhall last July twelvemonth, when Lord Tenterden
directed a nonsuit. The Court above having in Trinity
Term last set aside the nonsuit, the cause now came on
for trial a second time.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, in addressing the Jury fot
the defendants, called their attention to the language of
the Act of Parliament under 'which the warrant had
been issued. By that Act, which wasthe last Bankrupt
Act, the Commissioners were authorised to call before
them any person who might be supposed to be able to
give evidence touching the bankrupt's affairs; and if,
after being summoned, the party did not appear before
them at the time appointed, having no lawful impedi-
ment made known to them at the time of =eels& and
allowed by them,they were authorised by warrant under
their hands and seals to direct him to be apprehendedond
brought before them to be examined. It was under
the authority of that Act of Parliament that the
Commissioners had acted in this cue. Until that
Act passed Conimissioners • of- Bankrppt had no
authority to issue a warrant, and it was necessary
to make application to the Lord Chancellor to
compel a party to attend be'ore them. Such a mode
of proceeding, which was a very circuitous one, was
found to cause considerable delay and inconvenience,
and in consequence the late Act was passed, by which
the Commissioners had the sole power of deciding as to
the sufficiency of the excuse made by the party sum-
moned fur his non attendance. The present defendants
had, in the exercise of that discretionary power with
which they were invested, issued the warrant for the
apprehension of the plaintiff, and, if the Jury were trot
already satisfied that they had acted fairly and properly
in the execution of the power intrusted to them, he had
no doubt of being able, by the evidence which he
should adduce, to convince them, that under the cir-
cumstances, they were fully warranted in what they
had done.
Several witnesses were then examined for the defence
From their evidence it appeared, that shortly before the
commission of bankrupt issued against Messrs. Silvey
and Saunderson, the latter had informed the plaintiff of
his intention to go to America, and to take with him
some goads to Oi•pose of there; that the plaintiff, on
ascertaining the state of the affairs, proposed to buy up
all the debts due from the bankrupts, and that some of
the creditors having reason tobelieve that the plaintiff
was acquainted with facts connected with the bank-
rupts and their affairs which it was important to have•
disclosed, urged; at a meeting held under the commis-
sion, that the Commissioners should issue their war.
rant, in order that he might be immediately brought
before them and examined.
Sir JAMES Scanrarrr is his reply observed, that on
the former trial Lord Tenterden had directed a nonsuit,
conceiving; as he then did, that under the Act of Par.
Serpent the Commissioners possessed a power which
could not be controoled ; but the Court above had since
held that the power must be reasonably exercised, and
had therefore.directed,a new trial in order that the ques-
tion might be lac to the Jury, whether or not the power
had been reasonably exercised in this ease? The Learned
Counsel then urged that,there was no evidence to show
that the defendants were apprized of the plaintiff having
ere► been summoned to attend before them ;,and he con-
tended that they bad acted with a rashness and precipi-
tancy wholly unwarranted by any circumstances which
bad come to their knowledge.
Lord TSIITZIIDZIII after calling the attention of the
Jury to the words of the Act of Parliament, and recapi •
tulatiag the evidence, left it to them to say whether the
summons had been served at such tisue,as might have led
the Commissioners reasonably to expect that it would
be obeyed ? it was certainly not physically impossible for
the plaiiitif to attend, but still the time was very short,
the summons being served in Loudon at five o'clock
io the sliming, and the attendance being required, at
a distance of 112 miles, by me o'clock the nest morn-
ing ; and he was by no means prepared to say that a
person was bound to lay aside all his engagements, ond
to Ake laii,depaAturs immediately, and travel pH night, is
order to obey sesnonans which was served upon him
at so late as boat. The time to be allowed oughtno.
doubtedly to be a reasonable time. If the Jury went
of opinion ,start Alm pPtiCO was ,ucb ;IS reasonable 749

should be for the defendants; but if they wean of VI

getter with the expenses attending it, amoontiog in the
whole to 11111. that the preent action W4l, brought.
What the defence was to be, the Le ailed Sergeant alas
at a loss to imagine; but he had been given to undet-
stand that one ground *told be, that the plaintiff's title
to the vessel was detective, as no cettificate of registry
bad been produced. He would show, however, that
that defence could not be available. as the thiog sold
was a mere wreck, and incapable rf navigation, and
could Con.equently be transferred from the possession
of one party to that of another by the simple cettificate
of the builder.
Mr. Woolcombe, the ship broker, stated that he sold
the vessel on the I I th of Decerober..lB27, to Long, and
that' he then made no objection of any kiwi, except that
he insisted on settle" off against the arocus t of the
purchase-money, a claim which he bad against Major
Cochrane. He added, that a short time helot e die, second
sale an objection was raised as to the plaintiff's title by
Mr. Davis, Long's attorney.
In cross-examination he stated, that Long had paid
down 2001. as a deposit immediately aft, r the purchase;
and that as he had since failed to complete the purchase,
that sum hid become fotfeited„ and was, he added,
more than sufficient to compensate the plaintiff for the
loss and expenses attenditig the resale.
Re-examined—The deposit was paid to' him, and he
paid it into the hands of a banker, but it had not yet
been transfeded to the plaintiff, as he had received a
notice from the defendants not pay it over. •
'Mr. Sergeant WILDE submitted, that as the deposit
money in the hands-of the agent was found to be greater
utast tfie alleged loss, the pction was at an end.
Mr. Sergeant TARDY contended, that the de sit was
to be foe felted at all event., in cas- r.f she nen-folfilmrsit
of the purchase, and that the plaintiff had a rigt.t to
claim !or expenses in add tion to that so
An argument of some length was here entered into
by the Counsel on both sides; at the close of which
Mr. Justice PARK said, that he was so convinced of
the impropriety of the action, that he would niihsuit the
plaintiff at all risks.
The plaintiff was then called and nonsui.ed.

WINTER HOME CIRCUIT.

I.EWEs, use. nz.
A'illiam Snelling was indicted tinder the sth Geo.
111. gap. 25. sect. 19. for embezzling and applying to
his own use the sum of Is. SJ. belonging to the Mon.
Lieut. Gen. William de Maguire, fur the postage of t* •
letters at Cuckfield.
•Mr. Lotto and Mr. CLARKsoN conductedthe prose-
micro ; and Mr. DARBY the defence.
It appeared that the prisoner VAS intru teJ to receive
and carry letters and postage, on the cross ir•st between;
Crawley, in this county, and Slaligham. On the 29th'
September, the General having occasion tesend a letter
to Paris, gave It to the prisoner, With the usual postage;
ls. Bd. for the purpose of taking it to James Swift, the.
post-master, at Crawley. Sime viteks alter a letter
arrived from Paris, expressing some wonder on the pail
of the house to which be directed the aliovementioned
letter, that no such letter bad come to hand. Inquiries
were immediately made of the prisoner, but he said he
had forwarded the letter in the usual way: At length,
on the Ist of December, the prisoner carnet° the Gene.
ral's house, and producing the letter given to him es
the 29th September, said he had just Guild it between
the lining of his jacket and the jacket itself; he, how.,
ever, produced no Is. Bd. in lieu cf that paid to him by
the General. When reminded of this by the house keeper,
he acknowledged that he owed the General I S. Bd.
This was the case on the part of the prosecution.
Mr. DARBY objected that no proof had here been
given of the prisoner having taken the oath of office
necessary under the Statute of the 9th Ann, c.lO. 5.41.
That Act provided that no person should be'capable of
exercising any employment relating to the post office,
unless be had first taken the oath therein mentioned.
Mr. Lotto contended that the words of tl.e 5 Geo. 111.
c. 25. s. 19. precluded the necessity of giving evidence
of the prisoner having taken the oath of office required
by the 9th Ann, c. 10. s. 41.. The words were—ii If
any dZputy, clerk, agent, lettei-cariier, or other sat-
vant,uppointed, authorised, and entrusted to take in
letters or packets, and receive the postage thereof," and
so on, "shall be deemed guilty of felony." Now these
words would clearly apply to any person who was not
officially appointed at all, but merely engaged occa-
sionally to perform the duty of an officer, at might be
here. Now if that were so,.there could be no occasion
to give proof of the prisoner having taken the oath of
Office; besides this, he had never heard that a man
could take advantage of his own non•fcasance of apses
which by Statute he was bound to perform.
Mr. CLAftzsost referred the Cow t to Clay's case,
where, in an indictment against the defendant, founded
on the 7th George 111. c.. 50, s. 1, for ensbersling a bill
of exchange, he being ,a servant in the post-office. the
present objection was taken. The point was 'curved,
and the twelve Judges overruled it. 'Mr. Baron
Hut-
lock had ruled the same way, in a late case on the pre-
sent Statute, on the Northern Circuit.
Mr. Justice Buenos:oil said he would reserve the
point, and leave the case to the Jury on the present
evidence.
The Jury found the_prisoner and be was sen-
tenced to twelve ettioZs' iluirritorittleat in the House of
