to conform to any proper.sldernent, in order to pre-
vent that irretrievable ruin from descending on him
and his family, which Sir Samuel Rowdily declared
on his oath, before a Committee of the House of
Commons, was the inevitable consequence of.
ceedings in Chancery.
The Loan Oiler Juarics.--We have nothing to
do with what Sir Samuel ROrriilly deposed before
a Committee of the House of Commons: it
shisould
for
you merely to state to the Court, why you
not be called on to declare peremptorily in the pre-
sent Term.
Mr. Bruce said, he had not the means of employ-
ing Counsel, and it was not in his power to serve the
defendant Dixon, who was now at Leeds, with a writ.
He had put off the indictment at the request of the
very parties who now wished to urge him forward
in this action.
The Loan Onier Jo rice.--Then you have insti-
tuted two proceedings against the parties?
Mr. Bruce answered, that there were an indict-
ment and an action.
Mr. Serjeant ONSLOW said, he appeared only foe
Mr. Brown ; and the Court would observe, that the
grounds on which Mr. Bruce claimed a farther delay
--namely, that he was without an Attorney, and
without money, would go to this point, that the pre
sent action might be suspended over the head of Mrl
Brown for an indefinite time. • ,
Mr. Justice Bustiotion.—Will you appear for the
individual whom the plaintiff deposes he cannot
serve with a writ?
Tice LORD Cain Jeavtcr.--That is the important
point of the case. Will you appear for Dixon?
Mr. Serjeant ONstow said, he had never heard,
such a person named before. The writ was in Court,
and was directed to his client, Mr. Brown and John
Doe. Abraham Dixon was not mentioned in it. In
the affidavit Mr. Bruce swore, that " he could not
serve Abrahlim Dixon;" but he did not state that a
writ was sued'out.
Mr. Justice Paaa.—l believe that is the fact.. The
affidavit says, a writ was, sued out in April, but it
does not state against whom.
Mr. Bruce said, the affidavit distinctly set forth,
that a writ had been sued out against the sixteen
defendants.
The LORD Carer Juirrics.—The affidavit speci-
fies that Dixon has lately returned from Holland,
and that the plaintiff has not had an opportunity of
serving him ; therefore let the Rule be enlarged unit
next Term, in order that the plaintiff may be welded
to serve Dixon.
Mr. Serjeant Oitar.ow.--With the understanding
that the plaintiff must peremptorily declare by the
first day of next Term.
