This was an aftion to recover tool. lent by the
wife of the Plaintiff to the Defendant. It appeared
In evidence that Mrs. Skinner, previous to her mar-
riage, lived with the Defendant as fellow-fervant in
the houfe of Mr. Colvil, a butcher, in Chifwell-ftreet,
during which a legacy was left her by an uncle,
amounting to tool. vetted in the 5 per cents. The
Defench..nt, under fuels circumflances, paid his ad-
dreffes to her, and having. perfuaded her to fell
out the above Rock, received the whole into his
plreffinn ; after which they left their fervice, and
lived in lodgings as man and wife, until the money
was expended, and the had been delivered of an
infant, which died. The Defendant then espreffed
his inability to fupport her, and advifed that both
of them thould go to fervice ; a propofition the
minted to, provided her money, or a part of it,

her, thathe had not the generofity toreturn even the

COURT OF XING'S BENCH. MAY 3e.
AND OTWAIS V. GOODIN.
The Plaintiffs in this alien were affignees of one
Johns Binton Tirnmings, a Bankrupt; who formerly
walla' grocer at Gofport ; and the aaion was brought
for a balance of an account for goods fold and deli-
vered by the Bankrupt to the Defendant, who was
an attnrney,refidieg at Portfmnuth.
Mr. Esseraa naiad the Plaintiff's cafe. The De-
fendant had been employed by the Bankrupt (Tim-
Ibiess) to recover a debt which was due to him. and
preview to the trial, Tininsings bad advanced a turn
of tal. odd, for expence of Witneffee; he alfo had
paid his enlls. The debt was recovered and paid over
Se Tiounings. but the coat and espenee of WitnelTes,
which had been advanced, were not repaid. There
was alfo a furn of 271. cos. yd. due to limmings for
goods fold to the Defendant, making altogether a
fern of Bal. Bs. yd. fur which the eaten was brought.
Mr. Timmins was then esamined : be laid he had
ewspinyed the Defendant to recover astol. 75. for him;
that he had received that fum from him in two pay-
ments ; that he had advanced the coils, and the ex-
pose's of Witneffes, which had not been repaid him ;
that the Defendant had got goods from him to the
amount of 271 toe. 3d. ; that he had repeatedly ap-
plied to Defendant for his bill of eons, but in vain ;
and that there remained a balance due to his atlignees
el 811. Bs. sd.
Upon his crofreramination by Mr. Gas sow, he
was cautioned how he Should adorer the quellions
to be put to him, as every word of his evidence
mould be taken down. He then raid he had re-
ceived the ferns from the Defendant as before Rated,
and no other films. A bout was then produced to
him, wherein st appe erect he had [ivied a receipt
for 1631. rot. 6d. to the Defendant. He admitted
the name Signed at the bottom to he his hand-writing;
but pobtively fwere he had never leen the writing
above it before ; that he a:ways reads what he firth
mid, had he teen that writing before, he Should have
!Teatned it. He expreffed his furprsfe and afionifli-
/cent at fuch a thing having been produced. He
laid I:c made it a regular praflice to make up his
e.eits Account every night, and enter it in his day-
book s that he did expett to have received part of his
coils back, and it he had, they weuld have alfo been
entered. He admitted he did give a receipt fa:
tss (lye guiveas, as,sll6me other trifiirg rums.
Mr. G•aaow, on the part of the Defendant, ob-

Lord ELtsw BOROUGH &dined. if this was a Ma
charge of the attorney, he fbould be dealt with accord-
ingly. It was not natural to fuppofe that he had paid
over the eons; perhaps this entry ant his book, by way
of a receipt, might be a millake ; but as it then appear-
ed, perhaps it was better he did not go further, as
his Lordlitip feared, in loch a cafe, he Sonia hate

he would venture to exhibit himfelf in that form.—

MORGAN, CLIRR, V. CHARISM.
FALSE IMPRISONMINT.—Mr. EIRSIIIIIt opened this
ass very important cattle, which called for the par-
r cular attention of his Lordffilp and the Jury. the
Plaintiff WAS a Diffenting Clergyman,who had feveral
pupils under his care. On account of a very painful
difeafe in his wife's eyes, he was obliged to come to
London for medical affillancei and had taken lodg-
ings at the Defendant's, who is a grocer, in White
Croft-Ricci. The Learned Conflict then went largely
upon the right of occupancy, to which a lodger was
entitled. Every man, he (aid, was to confider his
lodging as his cattle; he had a tight to knock at his
door when he thought fir, and fhould have free ,n-
-grefs, egret's, and regrets, at all time' and hours.—
fhe Defendant in this cafe wifbed to expel the Plain-
tiff from his lodgings ; and when he came to the door
one night about eleven o'clock. he was refufed ad-
mittance : upon his remonflrating, he received a moll
impertinent note from the Defendant, in which he
threatened, that fhould the Plaintiff Ray out again,
to fuch an hour, he would not only lock him out, but
have him put in the watch•houte. On the following
night the Plaintiff came home about half paR eleven
o'clock ; and Mr. Et fkine here obferved, that though
a man (hould never (offer himfelftnexceed the bounds
of temiterantes yet it did not follow that he (hould
mortify his flefh by total abftinence. Upon this night
, she Plaintiff had devoted a few hours to conviviality ;
1.44, though be had taken perhaps a little more than
rlae ought, he was not to be reckoned drunk. He
knocked at the door, but to no purpofe ; his wife fent
u her fervaot to the Defendant for the key, but he
refuted to give it. The Plaintiff, a little ruined by
this delay, prifheft' with bone violence againft the
door ; upon this the Defendant came down, called the
watchman, and fent the Plaintiff to the watch-bottle.
The conflable of the watch, feeling for his fitua-
tion, brought him back to his lodgings, and repre-
tented to the Defendant the impropriety of his
condi" and how indecent it was to keep a Gentle.
ran out of his lodgings at filch an hour; but the
Defendant infifted he &mild remain at the watch-
honfe ; and the next morning he was carried before
the Magiftrate and difcharged. In confequence of
the confinement, he had been much injured in his i
health, and upon tholi grounds brought his 'aim.,
Several witneffes were then called, who proved'
the Plaintiff's cafe.
Mr. Gaiteow was proceedinc to Rate the Defers-
