LAW INTELLIGENCE.

VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT.-MONDAY.

LYON V. M‘GILL.
The defendant moved to dismiss the bill, on the ground
that proper diligence had not been exercised by the plain-
tiff in getting in the answer of the Attorney-General, who
has been made a party to the cause. The suit rose out of
the circumstances which formed the subject of a criminal
prosecution, and of a trial at Liverpool two or three years
ago, in which a person of the name of M'Gill was convic-
ted and sentenced to two years' imprisonment for forcibly
carrying Miss Crellin to Gretna-green, and there going
through a form of marriage with that lady, against her
consent. The plaintiffs in this suit were the mortgagors
of some property of which Miss Crellin is the mortgagee.
The bill is filed for redemption. The question is, whether
the legal title to the property has actually passed to the
husband by force of the marriage; and the plaintiffs in
excuse for their delay stated that it was necessary to
amend the pleadings by introducing the fact that the name
of Miss Crellin was subscribed in the book of marriages
at Gretna.

His Honour said, that as the delay had arisen from the
unusual circumstance that the Attorney-General had not
put in his answer on behalf of the crown until very re-
cently, he should direct the motion to stand over to give
the plaintiff another opportunity of proceeding with the
cause.
