r. 7.—The Nancy, 11:ibbs mailer. This was
a queftion of falvage. It appeared that this Ameti
can veffel had parted with her anchor off the coalt of
and in confequence was driven on (hove.
That loon afterwards a number of perfons went on
board, and rendered her affiftance, for which a claim
Of falvage was let up. On the part of the owners it
father appeared that an offer was made of ss. to
each man for their fervices on the occafion, which
was not accepted.
The Court, after hearing the Counfel on both
was of opinion that it was as flight a cafe of
falvage as ever came before it ; therefore pronounced
that the laid offer was fully fufficient, and, as it ap-
peared from the evidence that the parties had been
guilty of improper condua. in the management of
the iranfa6tion, it lhould allow them no eons.
The William and Mary, Dixon mailer. —This
was a quellion ofjoilit-capture. It appeared that on
the 26t4 of May; iffot, the Alert privateer, Captain'
Fergufon cOmmaniler, captured the above !hip, laden
with a cargo of hides and other articles, which cargo
was condemned in the Paid Court of Admiralty, as
good And lawful prize. That, pending the laid pro-
ceedings, the gars privateer, Captain King cons.
wander, fee up an intereft as joint-captor, the Mars
being in fight at the time, and therefore this queftion
now came on to be determined. The Jed e, afar
heating the evidence regd. and the Caeafel on both
fides, pronounced for the joint capture.
