The Defendant having allowed judgment to go
by default, it was referredlo, this Court 10 assess
damages.. . . .
Mr, BAIIIIWALL having opened thc case—
Mr. Serjcant BUT stated, that Mr. and Mrs.
Defries had been married upwards of ten years,
during which, up- to the period of the unfortunate
separation which gaits rise to this action, (hey had
enjoyed the utmost degree of harmony and happi.
ness, at he should prove by the production' of evi-
dence from among the highest and most respect:
able order of society. That his Client had never
been defective in any of the attentions which an
.affectionate and honourable man could pay to a
beautiful and accomplished woman, he woeldl
challenge the Defendant, or even calumny itself,
Sp "deny—suck indeed, was the nature of his iii. 1
*sections, that ho had nolisitatioit ill saying, if
such a denial could be sustained, he would be ready
,togire up all claim to damages.
' Several Ladies and Gentlemen, acquainted-with
Mr. and Mrs. Defries were adduced es witnesses,
to substantiate the statement of Mr. Scrjoant Best.
Mr. Serjeant •VAUGICAN spoke in mitigation of
damages. Ile disclaimed the intention of im put.
ing any impropriety of conduct to Mr. Defries,
nor was he instructed to impeach the general cha.
meter of Mrs. Defries; but still ho would ap-
peal to.the consideration of the Jury in favour of
his client, who was in his Minority when lie be-
came
acquainted With this highly interesting and
universally admired woman, as she had been justly
described by his Learned Friend. lie therefore'
hoped and trusted that, its estimative the compen-
sation proper to be awarded to the Plaintiff, the
Jury would take into account not only the youth
of the Defendant, but his means to defray that
compensation, which, he could Maitre them, were
very. limited, Mr. Holden . being Merely, a Cesnet
ref Dragoons,, with a small fortune.
Mr.' litotenstr. sninmed up the evidence, an&
