VICE etiAileELtOß4B COURT, Ind.,*
EARL SHAFTRESURF O. THE DUKE OF MARLIOROUOMA
At the sitting of the Court this morning, Mr.
HORNE begged to remind his Honour, thi: he had,
yesterday, promised to reconsider the nature of the
Petitioner's charge. He now was able to say, that
this claim di 4 not extend beyond the rents and pro-
fits of the Steeple Barton estate. He certainly had
no right to mortgage it. The claim, therefore, should
be confined to tents and profits. There could be no
cpiestion as to the title of the Petitioner to have his
indemnity made up out of the personal estate of the
late Duke. In the mean time, though if he had it .
in his power to sell the estate, it was evident that
this proceeding could have no effect farther than to
indemnify himself for a few years, and eventually
to lose his own security.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR intimated, that it would
be for the benefit of the Petitioner to have the Mas
ter's report plated out of. the consideration of the
question altogether. He never could reach what he
contended for by a reference to the Master. He will
have to contend that the effect of this agreement
with the late Duke was to have his indemnity gua-
ranteed generally, and that the guarantee was to be
effected as Counsel should advise. Now, he might
contend, that if a mistake was made common to all
parties, as to the value of the indemnity, that he had
a claim to have the insufficiency made up. His,
first claim, therefore, would' come on the testator's
personal estate, and a difficulty would have arisen
as to his power to do that, if the testator had not,
by an express Will, made his personal estate liable
for the debts of his real estate. Lord Clifden had
an equity arising out of the circumstances, which it
would not have been in the power of the Master to
recognize. He would only notice the Master's re-
port then. before the Court, by directing upon it the
receiver of the Steeple Barton estate to pay the Pe-
titioner the rents and profits of it, for three years
longer, (being the remaining part of the term of the
Petitioner's agreement with his tenants on this estate
with respect to tithes), these payments not exceed-
ing the difference between the full amount of the
tithes and 801. This order was to take effect with-
out prejudice to any future proceedings to be in-
stituted by the Petitioner in this Court. His course,
therefore, was to -file his bill, and endeavour to work
his equity through the Court without any interfe-
rence of the Master.
Mr. HART suggested an addition, that Lord Clif-
den might be at liberty to lay proposals before the
Master for the better letting of the Steeple Barton
estate.
His HONOUR said it would be necessary to make
it in this form, that the Master should be at liberty
to receive proposals from the Duke of Marlborough
or Lord Clifden, for the better letting of this estate.
Mr. BELL acqaiesced, and said he was sot-prised
that'there was only one case in the books, bearing in
any manner on the question.
