MARY STOCKDALE V. atNSLEY AND °TIM%
SAYE V. SAKE.
sPOTTiswonDE V. DIARY sToCknALN.
Sir SAMUEL RositLLY stated, that this was an op-
Oration on the part of Mrs. Stockdale, the Pleintiff
in the original and supplemental cause, praying that
an injunction might be issued, to restrain the
fendatits from proceeding in an action at law, to r -
corer the mestie int fits of a Levee ire-ft art 7,
which had accrued since the death of her husband,
and also to prevent them from turning Thomas Lowe
out of the occupation of a house in Old Bond street,
and that it might be referred to the Masters to take
an account of the produce of her late husband's-pro-
perty, and to state to the Court whether Thommi
Lowe was not a proper tenant of the said premises,
at a fair and adequate rent. The Learned Counsel
observed, that the proceedings in these suits were
exceedingly voluminous, but he would endeavour to
compass them into a narrow compass. In 1808, the
late Mr. Stockdale, a bookseller in Piccadilly, WI4
indebted to several persons: he was then possessed
of a house, No. 42, in Old Bond-street, which he
mortgaged to Mr. Applegarth, one of his creditors,
for the sum of 10001. Its this situation he continued
his business till March, 1813, when lie executed a
mortgage of two houses in Piccadilly, and the copy.
rights of certain works to which he was entitled, to
Stratton and others fur 45001. In 114, he found it
necessary to call a meeting of his creditors ; sod,
upon the statement whicli he then made of his
it was thought advisable to takes,. assignment of his

'horrid come in and execute the deed of trust within w
Cerfsin period. It was at the same limn proposed,
that this arrangement should tint interfere with his
*etail business, and that he should be permitted to
select hooks to the talkie of 10001. to enable him to
continue that trade, which was not to be subject to
Isis creditors, unless his other property' should be
found insufficient to pay them 20s: in the pound. The
deed of assignment was dated on the 18th Match,
1814, but consented no exception as to the retail
trade; the property was assigned upon trust In be
bolds aud whelk the proaeeda amounted to 50001.

To which Mr. Lidwill added the following note:
When the above arrangement was handed to me
by Maj..r LiilNill, I reserved the power of making
the underneath addition from myself, if I shoo' deem
it necessary, and communicated that reser►ation
through him to Col. Brown, viz.:—
" That after a long t °dere:ice between Colonel
Brown and Major Lidwill, about the hour of two
o'clock (i9th Nov.), it was arranged between those
Gentlemen, that my making the following declaration
should terminate the affair then peuding between Mr.
I'erl and me:—

That I had great satisfaction in declaring to
Colonel Brown, that I would be glad the words
were obliterated from Mr. Peel's recollection.' "

Therefore it was after my avowal of my determi-
nation, under my then circumstances, not to agree
to any explanation, that Col. Brown, on his return
to my hotel at three o'clock, communicated to Major
',litchi his final resolution, and the motives which
led him to adopt it.
A copy of the declaration I allude to being left
with me, I conceive it to be a fact, therefore, nor
included in the stipulation between the above Gen.
theme,,, viz. " Not to disclose any confidential com.
munication."
