COURT OF KING'S SENOR, WESTMINSTER, No w.. 11

... . .. JUDGMENT FOR. ASSAULT.
Mr: Scastxtx prayed the judgment of the Court
against Thomas and JO* Winter, two respectable
farmers, for an assault od Gibbs, a Con-
stable, and for obstrunting him in the performance of
his duty, of which they had been found guilty at the
last Somerset Assizes. it appeared that John Win-
ter had been given into the custody of Gibbs, in
June last, by Sir John Lethbridge, one of the Ma-
gistrates for the County of Somerset. Gibbs took
his prisoner, John Winter, to the Gore Inn, in
Bishott-Lydyard, where he intended to keep him till
'the next day, having informed him that he (Gibbs)
had received directions "to treat his prisoner like
a gentleman : to let him want for nothing."—.
While the prisoner and his keeper were iii the
kitchen, the brother of the prisoner, Thomas Win-
I ter, came and beckoned him to follow towards the
parlour, as he wished to have some private converse
1 with his brother. John Winter accordingly follow.
'ed his brother Thomas to the parlour, and not wish-
ing the presence of any third person, he did not in-
vite the Constable to follow. Gibbs, however, said
that he could not lose sight of his prisoner, and
must therefore be permitted to make one of the par.
lour party. He was accordingly about to enter, but
Thomas Winter pushed him from the door; and on
Gibbs`making increased efforts to follow his pri-
soner, John joined his brother in opposing the Con-
I stable. Both of them were thus engaged in the fray,
and on both counts they had been found guilty, and
for those outrages the judgment of the Court was
now prayed.
Mr. ntrattovona appeared for the Defendants.—
lie stated, that so far from Gibbs having had any
right or plausible pretext for detaining and control-
; ing the conduct of John Winter, that the progress
1 of the trial proved, that Gibbs had neither any war-
! rant against him, nor had any charge been preferred.
Those facts, as shown at the trial, from what had
not been proved, could not but give a new and a
I favourable colour to the case ; and he could not
doubt that the Court would take into consideration
1 the expeoces the Defendants had already been put to
in coming to Loudon, &c. ; but most probably the
case would not end here, whatever might be the
judgment of their Lordships on the present.occa-
Mon.
