COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, MARCH 3.
TAYLOR''.

This was an anion brought by the plaintiff in
order to recover compentathm in datuages for the
inju y he he had follained by means o; the defen-
dant, whole coach had da(hed to pieces the plain
tiff e chaite, in etnderptence of which he fell from
it, apd was fevetely bruited.
The circumtlances of the cafe were as follow
The platntiff's one bode chaife, in which were
himfelf and his grandfon, proceeding up Stamford-
hill, was encountered by the defendant's coach,
driving in the oppofite direaion. The coachman
happened to drive Pi :lately by the elm& that the
coach encountered its hind wheel, tore it away,
and crulhed the chaife. The occalion of this ac-
cident appeared to be (for no brutality teemed to
attach to the coachman), that he had too preci•
pitately endeavoured to crofs the road in order to
turn to the defendant's houfe, which flood bard
by lie drove home with the ladies who were in
the coach. and then returned to the place where
the plaintiff had fallen, arid broken two a his ribs.]
HE anted him if he had hurt himfelf ?—to which
the plaintiff anfwered, "No ; but yen have." The
coachman then raid, that if it was his fault his
mailer would make it good.
The wimelres on both fides defcribed the tranf-1
aaion nearly as has been Sated.
The Jury, returned a verdia for the plaintiff--.
Damags 8o guineas.

DOIhIVILLI O. LIMY.

This was an anion of trover to recover the fum
of 381. gs. the amoont of goods depofited by the
plaintiff as a fecurity for money borrowed of the
defendant. Mr. Serjeant MARSHALL. Rated, that!
the plaintiff was a merchant, and purchafed goods'
fir the purpore of exportation: the defendant is a
Jew, refiding in the Minories. The plaintiff hay.'
ing occa lion to borrow tome money, applied,
through the medium of Mr.Le Normand,tothe de-
fendant, for the loin of I tol. for a fortnight, as a
fecurity for al:kb h • epolited tome plated goods,
to the amount of 2981. Si l'he plaintiff paid tol
to Le Normand, in conlideration of the trouble
he had had, a moiety of which went to the defen-
dant for the interell of hie money. When the fort-
sight expired, the plaintiff being unable to ful6l
his engagement, folicited the forbearance of the
money a fortnight longer, for which he paid the
further Cum of sal. fo that the defendant received
in the whole, t 51. fo-the loan of i tol. for twenty-
eight days ! When the plaintiff was in a fituation
to redeem his fecurities, the defendant told him
the plate was pledged at Mr. Windfor's, a pawn
btoker, in the Minories ; and he gave tp Le Nor.
mord, who applied, ten duplicates, which com-
piled the chief part of the articles. But when
they were compared with the inventory, it was
found that goods to the amount of 381. gs. 6d.
were deficlent. Peter Le Normand raid he did not
recent the duplicates for eight mouths after he
obtained them from the defendant ; that a perfon
of the name of Davis affilted in examining them
with the inventory. The witnefs applied to the
defendant in confequence of this, who laid they
were a let of d—d fwindlers.

Being crefs-examined by Mr. Serjeant Bear,
whether he knew any thing of the firm of Le Nor-
• Pecholier, and Derval ? he anfwered in the
negative. The goods were the property of
• 1.,r• whom Peeholier fold them to the plain-
tiff. Derval gave the money to pay for them.—
Being afked what bufinefs he carried on ? he laid,
he was a broker. Art you a fworn broker ? No.
Rave you any medal? No. Do you follow any
oche. trade ? Yes. lam a coal merchant in the
Kent Road. Do you know any thing of Gold
fmith and Bloomfield ? Yes, to my misfortune.—
Your three names are on a certain piece of parch-
ment, called an indiament ? The witnefs refufed
to aufwer this queflion. Has not Colonel Derval
changed his name to Dorneville ? No. Derval
and Gilman are intimate friends of John King, are
they not ? The st tnefs believed they were.
David Windfor laid, all the duplicates for ar-
ticles pledged by Levy, excepting two, were can-
celled ; thofc two were fill unclaimed, and they
comprifed the articles in difpnte. After the de-
mand was proved by the attorney's clerk,
Serjeant s r laid, if a verdia was found for the
plaintiff on the teßimony of Le Normand, no man
wculd be fate. He had faid the goods were par.
chafed fur exportation ; and if to, at was rather ex-
traordinary that they Ilhould be pawned on the
fame day. It had seen allcJged that the defen•
dant bad alto taken a bill as a collateral fecurity
for his money ; but it was fill more remarkable
that the plaintiff fhould apply to Pecholier for a
bill to enable him ti diflaofe of his own goods.—
The Learned Gentleman entered a little into the
private hifory of these parties, and nbferved, that
the name of Dervat and Dorneville were In heady
fimilar, he could nut help thinking them one and
the fame perfon.
Mrs. Eliz. Nathan faid fhe was the wife of a
linen draper in the Minories ; that Levy was for-
merly in partnerlhip with her hufband ; and he
came into the (hop about ten months ado, and
brought twelve duplicates with him, defirmg fhe
would take care of them till Le Normand applied
for them. She counted and put them into her
pocket book. About fvven or eight days after.
wards Le Normand and the defendant came in to.
!whet., the latter asked for the duplicates, which
reaored to him, he immediately gave them
to Le Normand, who being again called up. Riff.

Pearlier, and Derval ; that he *is there at the
time of this tranfaaion, and accepted the bill above
mentioned. He received a Celery of fevers fhillings
a week from each of the three partners. The
goods remained ante or four days at the honk.,
u hen he was ordered to pledge them to Mr. Mat
thews, who refilled to take them in. They were

drawn by Pecholier, and accepted by the witnefs
as a collateral rem ity for the t tol. He believed
the goods never palled through any other hands.—
He had never heard the name of Dorneville.—
Being diced what bufinefs was carried on at this
counting bottle i he laid none. He fat at the clerk.
but no periOn came, and the only commercial
tranfaaion was with thefe plated goods.
Mr. Itaacs, the defendant's attorney, laid, he
went to Liiiott's Row, St. George's Fields, but
could find no filch perfon as the plaintiff, on which
his Lordfhip oblerved, they (hould have applied to
the Court to nay proceedings.

COURT OF KiNG'S BENCH. MARCH 3.
BURKE l'e ROQERS.

This care was condulted by Mr. Glass and Mr.
&ARM, on die Nit of the Plaintiff, and by Mr.
Emma& for the Defenciai.t. _ _

It was an allinn brought on a policy of infur-
ance from Lifison to Falmouth, on the chip Cal-
yey, valued at I,sool. on a cargo of fait, valued
at aool. and alto on freight, at vol.
The Learned Counfel laid, Mr. Burke had
brought this aftion not only to recover a jufl de-
mand, but to-repel a moll injurious attack that had
been made on his charaFter. It had been report-
ed that he had procured thofe who were on board
the 'hip to call her away on purpofe; that they
had run her on the rocks for the exprefs purpofe
of dawning the (hip and cargo, that he might
come upon the Underwriters. If any fuch attack
was made, be fit ,tild not be lorry that it would
give him an opportunity of repelling it. The chip
failed with her cargo, and when (he got over the
Bar (he met with exceedingly bad weather, and
an heavy tea, was obliged to return, and was call
on a rock, where (he remained for twenty minutes,
and received fnch confiderable damage, that it
was found neeeffary to unload her cargo of falt
and if the (hip bad been repaired there, they mull
have warehonfed the cargo, which would have
more than the value of the falt. It would
have required two months to have repaired the
(hip. In this lituation of things, the Plaintiff
abandoned to the Underwriters, as his Lordfhip
would inform them lie had a right to do, and went
in this aaicio for a total lots.

The fags of this opening were proved by reve-
re! witnefes. When they proved the Plaintiff's
abandonment to the Underwriters ; they alto read
the anfwer of Meffrs. Crowther and Lavie, the So-
licitors for the Underwriters. It was to this ef-
fea ; " that the Underwriters did not fee the pro-
priety of the Plaintiff's abandoning where In in-
conliderable a lots had been Curtained ; that the
Plaintiff (hould proceed to repair the (hip; and that
the Underwriters would ultimately pay any lots or
demand that could be fairly brought againff them."
Mr. Easily's, for the Underwriters, in the
courie of his very eloquent fpeech, obferved, this
was a point of infinite moment to the Underwrit-
ing world. He fubmitted this could never be a
cafe of abandonment, after what had already ap-
peared in the caufe The (hip might have been
repaired for between three and four hundred
pounds, and there was only a lots of three per
cent. on the cargo ; and if the (hip had been re-
paired and brought home, the cargo and the
freight would have been laved to his Clients ; and
if there had been a (mall deficiency of freight, on
account of part of the falt being diffolved, the
Underwriters on the freight would have made up
that lots. As to the report that was circulated
againft Mr. Boirke's chai after, he did not believe
there was the !earl foundation for it ; and therefore
he might make himfelfperfealy eafy on that head.
The Plaintiff in fuch a cafe as this had no right to
abandon as for a total lots, without the content of
the Underwriters. Without that confent the al-
lured had no right to abandon, when the adven.
cure was not 1011, when the veffel had been but one
day out of port, when, in the (pace of forty days
Ilse was capable of being repaired at a moderate
expence,- and could be rendered capable of per-
forming her voyage.
Lord EL 1111110ROUG H fummed up the evidence,
as it applied dillinaly to the (hip, the cargo, and
the freight, which, his Lord(hip obferved, might
be conlidered as three dillinft policies of infurance.
His Lordthip, in delivering his opinion to the Jury,
evidently inclined to confider this as an average,
and not as a total 1011. However, he left the whole
cafe to the jury. He faid they might find a total
loft as to one of there three things, and an average
as to another.

The Jury found the loft to be an average loft
with regard to all the three poling. the flip, the
cargo, and the freight ; and they Paid. that Mr.
Wood was as fit as any man in the kingdom to
afeertain the amount of that avenge.. It was
therefore reigned to him.
