ARREST OF DEAD BODIES.

TO 771 E EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

Sta,—l have lately heard, what were intended to be, legal
arguments on the old, long-since exploded, doctrine of a creditor
having a right to seize the dead body, before interment, of his
(late) debtor; and one gentleman (who is, I know, a commis-
sioner for taking special bail) would 'have it that the death of a
defendant did not save the bail, who were bound to have his
body, though dead, delivered to a gaoler, in order to their dis-
charge, and that recorrnizances of bail were taken accordingly.
Thiilate Lord C. J. Elletilinrough has clearly and emphatically
East,
the law on this subject in Jones r. Ashburton, see 4th
East, 4fill and 465. His lordship says, "To seize a dead body
upon any such pretence would be contra bones mores, and an ex-
tortion on the relatives; it iscentrarvtoeveryprincipitoflawand
moral feeling; SI:11 all act is revolting to huina,iity, and illegal,
and therefore any promi.e extorted by the fear of it could never
he valid in law. It might as well be said that a praznise, in
consideration that one would withdraw a pistol from another's
breast, could be enforced against the party acting under such
unlawful terror."

Be pleased to give your readers a little legal lig,ht on this
subject, by inserting, if agreeable to you, this letter.—Yonr's,
_ M.

27th October, 1835.
LAs we do not profess to be learned in the law we have but
very little legal light to throw upon this subject, except that
which commonsense supplies; and common law has, we believe,
been called the perfection of common sense. As death puts an
end to all personal contracts, as well as to the existence of the
body, the bail, see apprehend, would be entitled to an ereneretur
upon satisfying the court that the bailee was, in the language
of common parlance, "no more." We once heard Lord Ten-
terden say, when a case of this kind was mentioned in court,
" I should like to see the sheriff who would dare bring a dead
boar into ceurt, or before a judge at chambers." The arrest of
a dead body 'is clearly illegal, because it takes from a third party
a species ot property of which that party has the legal custody,
and because an action could no more be maintained against a
(load body than against any other mass of inert matter.]

BOXIANA.

" I hate the very name of bar ;
It fills me fgll of fears
It 'minds merof the woes I've felt,
Since I was young in years.

They sent me to a Yorkshire school,
Where I had many knocks :
Tor these my schoolmates box' d my east,
IkeilllSC I couldn't bor.

I pack'd my box; I picked the locks ;
And ran away to sea;
And very soon I learnt to box
The compass merrily.

I enure ashore —I eall'd a coach,
And mounted on the box;
The coach upset against a post,
And gave me dreadful knocks.

I soon got well.; in love I fell,
And married Martha Cox ' •
Tn please her will, at fam'd Bo.: Hill.
I took a country box.

I had a pretty garden there.
AU bordered round with box;
But all. alas! there liv'd next door,
A:,eertain Captain Knox ;
He took my NI ife to see the play
They had a private box;
lealous grew, and from that clay
I
hated Captain Knox.

I s;,111 my house-1 left my wife,
And went to Lawyer Fox,
'Who tempos; me to seek redress
All from * jury Lox.

I wont to law, whose grcedv maw
Soon emptii.d my strong 1.0.0
I lost my suit, and to boat,
All through that crafty Pox.

The name of box I therefore dread,
I've h n 1 so many shocks ;
They'll never end—fur when I'm dead,
They'll nail me in a box,
—Th. Comic ..dlmanack for 1536. •
