and having received the usual salutations of the Bar,
Mr. Hata? rose, and said, in the case of Mattock v.
Naddock, he was instructed to inform his Lordship

and that he had therefore now to apply to his Lordship
to order that certain papers which had been filed in the'
cause, might be ordered to be delivered to the parties.
The Long CHANCELLOR said he was happy the parties
had saved him the trouble of giving judgment between
them ; and as they had wisely 'reed to settle their own
disputes, he could have no objection to the cause being
struck out, and the papers should be delivered over

Counsel within the Bar.

COURT OF ICING'S BENCH, Om 31.
BROWN V. BAKER.
This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who
keeps the Crown Inn, at Windsor, to recover the sum of
61: 9s. for the board and lodging of a Gentleman of the
name of Richards. It appeared that the defendant, who

is a Sheriff's officer, bad arrested Mr. Richards, a Cap-
. _

tain on half pay, and at his request bad allowed him to
remain at the Crown Inn, instead of taking him to
a lock-up house. Captain Richards remained at the
Clown Inn for eighteen days, the defendant having pro•
inked to pay for whatever provisions might be fur-
nished`to him. At the time when plaintiff demanded
the paytnent of his bill, which amounted to 61.9;. the
defendant said he could not pay him unless he chose to
take a bill from Captain Richards.
One or two witnesses having been examined, the son
of the defendant was called to prove the plaintiff had
been paid by the bill of Richards's, but the fact was not
made out. The Jury, under all the circumstances, found
i verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 61.95.
