COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY 19.
TI/E LATE DIETURRANCEs.
WILLIAM MAINWARING, ESQ. V. BELL AND DoBsON.
This was an action brought by the plaintiff, who is
Chairman of the Quarter Sessions for the county of
Middlesex, to recover damages for the injury which
his house sustained on the suplit of the 6th of April,
from the outrage of a mob. The action was brougle.
against the Hundred of Ossulston, in the county et
Middlesex, in which Hundred his house in Hanover-
square is situated
Mr. Serjeant SHEPHERn stated for the plaintiff, that
it was an action foun.ied on the Ist of George I.
which provided, that if a mob unla efully and riot-
ously assembled, and with force demolished or pulled
down, or 'megan to demolish or pla down any horse,
chapel, barn, stable, or any ether building, &c. then
the Hundred in wh, -,•tell Lou*. &c. was situate,
should reimburse the owner. The Learned Sp--
jeant said, that on ::,e night in question a large
mob had assembled, in consequence of the Speaker
of the House of Commons having issued his warrant
to t.,ke into custody Sir Francis Burdett.
The defendants admitted that the plaintiff occupied
the house in question.
John Ross, a watchman, stated, that on the 6th of
April, about twelve o'clock at night, he was alarmed
by the appearance of a mob on the lett hand side of
the square, coming from Bond-street ; there might
I be about 150 persons ; they asked him which was
Mainwaring's house ? he told them he did not know
i that he was a stranger; they went further on in-
quiring, and knocked at several doors; the witness
i knocked at Mr. M.'s door, and told the servants the
I ' mob was coining. At that time there was a great
i light in his box, he went to it, and a large stone was
thrown at him ; he put out the light. Somebody in
the interim had informed them which was the house
of Mr. Maiawaring. -"hey wt at iip to it, knocked
at the door, and some cried, " This is Mainwaring's
here goes !" Ther• was a great shouting, and
I stones and brickbats were thrown at the windows for
nearly half an hour. Previous to the attack, lights
i had bee.) put in some of the windows. When they
I had broke all the windows they went away. He saw
the house in the morning, the window-frames and-
glass were broke all t , pieces. Some of the mob per-
i‘ceiving that he was about to spring his rat'te, ex-
claimed, " Damn the watchman, if he makes a noise
we'll kill him !" They inquired for no other house
but Mr. Mainwaring's.
' John Price, butler to Mr. Mainwarhig, deposed
nearly to the stifle facts. Some of the mob asked
. ' him, when he opened the do:ir, it that was Mr. Main-
waring's house ? He replied, that it was, and thin
he would put up lights, it that would prevent them
from doing 'nisch:el; but they said " We don't want
lights, we'll have a smash at the windows."
Elizabeth E allow ay and Sarah Collier, in the ser-
• vice of Mr. Mainwaring, also gave evidence to the
i same effect.
Mr. Jos( ph Wood was employed to repair the in-
jury dune to the house ; his bill amounted to £l2O 6s.
Thcre were five or six sashes repaired, one entirely
new ; two blinds repaired, &c. In answer to a ques-
tion from one of the Jury, he stated that he had done
' no more than what was absolute 4 necessary from the
ravages of the mob.
Mr. 'Wiggins, a surveyor, disposed that the charges
were proper ; be surveyed the work ; his charge was
six pounds.
Mr. Serjeant SELLON for the defendants contended,
after referring to the words of the 4th and 6th sec-
tions of the Act, that it did not contemplate, giving
redress in an injury of the kind note before the Court,
and instiinc Yd two cases for breaking windows, in
which the decisions of ralother Court ilaki been against
j plaintiffs. In the present case there was no proof
I that a brick hod been remcved, or that any part of
I the building had been demolished, and therefore the
I Jury were to put a ;iberal construction upon :he Act.
I—He would appeal with confidence to his Lordship
, as to the law being with him ; but m case he should
not be of that opinion, then he would beg his Lord-
. ship to reserve the point for a more solemn decision.
Serjeants SHEpliEltD and BEST contended with re-
spect to the cases alluded to, viz. that of Burrows v.
Wright, in Ist East ; and also of Reed v. Clarke,
that iri the latter, which was an action of a similar
nature, there was this difference : the mob, who had
broke the plaintiff's windows, had done so in conse-
quence of his not lighting tap on the occasion of Lord
St. Vincent's victory. When the case came for deci-
sion, Lord Kenyon had been of opinion, on that oc-
casion, that the assemblage of pet sons did not amount
to a species of tumultuous rioting. Here the case was
that the mob went with a determination to commit
an injury.
Sir .1. Marranacei said. abet as it was a question of
considerable importance, lie would direct clue Jury to

Great preparations are makia g throughout the

which is this season to be carried on with more spirit

In addition to the gim.boats lately fitted out at
Chatham and Sheerness, 20 more are ordered to be
got in readiness, making in the Whole 75.
Private accounts from the Texcl, received yester-
day, state that the Commander of our squadron had
latel)r sent in a flag of truce to obtain the release of
a fishing-boat which had been captured by the enemy.
King Lot;ts replica, through the Commander of the
Dutch squadron, " that the boat having got into the
hands of the French, it was impossible for him. to
order her to be restored ; but he promised that
Upon her coming to be sold by auction he would
mself buy her in and read her back ; or if that could

nearly resen,bling her as could be procured."

to enter a non suit, suppcisitig his opinion should be
wrong.. His Lordship • observed, thatitltits proved
in evidence that the intention. of the *sob Wait to de

when the servant said he would light up, they told
him they did not want that, for they would smash
the windows. It did not appear That they were driven
away by any force, but that they retired when they
had effeeted their purpose. T:ie case therefore clearly
came ‘fithin the words of the 4th and 6th section of
the Act, and might he decided instanter, were it not
that the cases alluded to had been brought under dis.
cession. His Lordship thimght it would be better,
as it was an important question, that it should be de-
cided in a solemn manner before all the Judges.
The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages
4126, the point being reserved.

not in the course of performing any act as Revcnr
Officers, at the time the assault was committed.
The Jury accordingly found the defendant Cluilt.
of the common assault; but acquitted him of the more
aggravated charge, by which also his recognizance
will be saved.

Wednesday two conv.cts, at Sheerness, endeavoured
to make their escape, but they were prevented from
s1•-ctinti their purpose.
Yesterday D. S. and J S. Brown were charged at
the Mansion House, with forging and uttering seve-
ral
checks en the banking-house of Sir W. Curtis and
Co. Sir W. stated that the prisoners were brothers
of the xvornan who was lately examined for the same'
crime. The•prisoners, Sir W. added, had sirculated
seven or eight checks, one of which he held in his
hand, signed Daniel Brown, and purporting to be
the signature of a stock-broker who kept cash at his
house. Mr. Montague, of the White Horse, Moor-
lame, said the prisoners lodged at his house two or
tit-cc days, and, owing him eight or nine shillings,
they gave him a check for R 5. 14s. ; which suspec-
ting to be a forgery, he took to the banking-house,
where his suspicions were confirmed, and two con
stables sent to apprehend them ; but they had in the
interim gone out, and did not return. The prisoners,'
in defence said, they received the checks at the York-
shire Stisgo, in the Edgeware-road. They were both
fully committed. The eldest is about twenty-five
years old. One of them had been a baker; the other
a Gentleman's servant. They will not be tried this
.Cession, as other charges ars expected.
