COURT OF CHANCERY, Dsc. 7.

• .
COVTEMPT OF COURT—WARD OF CIIA.NCERY—
. AND CONSPIRACY AGAINST.JURISDICTION.
This morning, at the sitting of the Court, Mr.
SNA DWELL moved, on the petition of the nearest
friend of Miss Ann Wade, a young heiress and a
ward of Chancery, now only 17 years of age, but
possessed of an income of 50001. a-year, in her own
right, for process of contempt against Charles H.
Beesley, son of the Rev. Mr. Beasley, and his as-
sociates, for breach of an order and injunction here-
tofore issued, to restrain the said Charles H. Beas-
ley from prosecuting his illicit courtship with the
ward.
There were previous and private consideratious
and proceedings before the Lord Chancellor, to pre-'
vent such unlawful intended union, when the case.
was discovered approximating to matrimony, by
publication of bans, and the order was so full as
to prohibit any further intercourse, either in person
or by letter, with the ward ; but the ingenuity of
the ardent lover was found to have extended to the
facts now charged, of conveying a letter through the
maid-servant to the young lady, and to the further i
charge of having offered a bribe of 10001. to one of
the Bow-street officers of police, for his assistance
and co-operation in gaining possession of her person,
in direct violation of the order of Court.
The letter was produced and read, couched in the
usual terms of love, with an invitation to his arms.
But an obstacle occurred to the present motion, on
the want of proof of the hand-writing, which induced
the Lord Chancellor to direct enquiry to be made for
the late .school-fellows of Mr. Beasley, where. he
was lately educated, for persons to prove the hand-
writing, or among his tradesmen, or those supply-
ing him with articles of necessaries, among whom
'the required evidence could easily be found, and the
Motion to stand suspended for a very few days for
that purpose.
His Lordship regretted this defect, and added on
this occasion that he should show many their error
respecting the extent of the jurisdiction of the
Court in such cases, since he felt inclined, on the
verification of the charges in this Petition, to hand
ever the same as sufficient to ground a criminal
prosecution for -a conspiracy, to the Attorney-Ge-
neral; the consequence of a conviction on which
would subject the principal and his accomplices to
punishment more serious and afflicting to the feel-
ings of many persons, than imprisonment, or even
transportation, nay, even death itself—(we suppose
the standing on the pillory)—and ordered dispatch
and diligence to be used in proving the hand-
writing, end the Motion to be brought on as quickly
as possible.
The Motion was suspended.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, bEc. 7.

GRIFFIN V. DOWNALL.

This was an action brought to recover 361. 1-Is.,
for goods sold and delivered. The Plaintiff is a ha.
berdasher, residing in London, and the Defendant a
milliner, at Liverpool. The goods in 'question were
proved to have been ordered by letter, and to
have been sent, part by the Liverpool coach„ on the
30th of November, 1813, and the remainder by
the same coach, on the 12th of December, in the
same year.
On the part of the Defendant, it was contended,
that no such goods as those which formed the subject
of action had ever been either ordered or received
by the Defendant.
The facts of the Plaintiff's case being clearly esta-
blished, however, a verdict was found for the
Itiff—Damages, 361. 14s.—Costs 40s.

THOMPSON V. DAVEY.

This was also an action for goods sold and deli-
vered. From the evidence adduced in support of
the action, it appeared that the Plaintiff had for
some time made clothes for a Mr. Verlanda, a rela-
tion to the present Defendant, and in May, 1812,
he received an order to-make a suit of clothes for the
Defendant. The clothes, eett finished, were sent
to Mr. Verlanda's house, and as the man was taking
them into the parlour, Mr. Verlanda desired he
would put them down on a chair. The Defendant
was not present at this time. Upon the bill being
furnished to the Defendant for these clothes, he re-
fused to pay for them, alleging as a reason, that
they were not ordered on his credit, but had been
ordered by Mr. Verlanda, who intended them as a
present to him. In contradiction to this statement,
however, Mr. Verlanda said, he believed he never
ordered any clothes for the Defendant ; and be was
certain he never intended so to do.
Verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages, 121. ls.—
Costs 40s.

COURT OF coutiori PLEAS, Dag. 7.

APIA ULT.

WITIMIRS O. LYON.

In this action for in assault there was contradic-
tory swearing, and a east number of witness pro-
duced.

On the part of the Plaintiff the case, which was
sworn to by nine witnesses, was this ; that the De-
fendant, who is a brewer, having gone out in his gig,
bad stopped at the door of a public-house, in Love-lane,
neer Cock-hill, where lie beat his horse most severely
with a stick. The Plaintiff came out of the public-
house, and remonstrated with him on his cruelty,
when he told him that if he did not keep off he would
serve him in the same manner. The Plaintiff called
him a brutal fellow, and the Defendant struck him
first across the hand and wrist, and when the Plain.
tiff was closing upon him to avoid more blows, he
*ruck him twice upon the head, each of which blows
brought blood. . . •
The stick was produceill which was a heavy knot?
tad stick.

On the part of the Defendant, three witnesses
,pore, that when the Plaintiff came out of the pub-
ileo.house, he called the Defendant an opprobrious
, and threatened to serve him as he served his
his ; thnt it was upon the Plaintiff's shaking his
iimase

the Defendant struck him the first blow over the
kauckles ; •sad that it was npon,the Plaintiff's ,eu.
4mi:tering to rush in upon the Defendant that the

Defendant 'truck iiitnku:,lilowa won ,
They also proved (hat the Defendant's beta
