LAW I?ZPOR7'S. COURT OF KING's BENCH, Fes. 20. SITTINGS AX NISI MU'S BI:FoRE LORD ELLENBOROUCII J AT IVLS STEIL. WILSON AND ANOTHER, ASSIGNErS OF DEVAYNES, DAW ES, NOBLE, AND CO. V. JOHN BALFOUR, ESQ. This was an action of Troyer. Mr. Attorney-General stated, that this might he a severe case as far as it related to the defendant, but it must be a short one, as it related to law. The mere question was, winaher certain bonds, which had been the Brankrupes property, and which they conveyed over to the defendant at the time they were insolvent, and only the day before they stopped paymeit , , weie to remain with them. It was almost unnecessary for him to state, that the Bankrupts formed the firm of the great banhi;:g house in Pall-mall, which stopped payment on the .let of July last. The defendant was a respectable gentleman of fortone, who intrusted the Bankrupts with the sum of 16,3001. to pur chase stock for him, which they did, in the Navy 5 per cents. in the name of Mr. Noble, one of the partners, who, on the house being pushed for money in the month f May, sold it oat again without the knowledge of the defeadrot, which put him again in the situation of a cornmon crec!itor; but Mr. Nobl!, he would not say fraudulently, but certainly un lawfully, although he might be actuated by laudable motives, and a wish to make a recompense fur his bra ach of trust, did as sign over to the defcndant two bonds, to nearly the atnonnt of the five per cents. He had however made over one bond 4.,f the Earl of Oxford's, and the other of Captain James Umpstead. This was what they could not do for another creditor; and his loordqhip would info-m the Jury, that the law would allow no favouritism. The defendant was not informed of - the ciretn stancqs until the lione of Dev,lynes were in the jaws of bank ruptcy at the time, fur they inelo,ed the bonds on the 30th of July, and absol . itely stopped payment on the 31st.. They were accompanied with a note to the following etlect :•- 14 Having made true of your Navy Five . per CentF,• we inclose you bonds for security, as to-morrow we will be obliged to stop our usual payments.' " July 30, MO." This note, in itself, said the Attorney-General, was sufficient to entitle the plaintiffs.to a verdict, for the defendant was not entitled to a grater indulgence than any other creditor. The defendant had given notice that -he would dispute bankruptcy. A late Act of Parliament required that the notice should be given, and no blame could be attached to him for so doiog ' • for it must be allowed that he had been hardly dealt . with, and had a great stake at issue. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to call his witnesses : Edward Howell deposed that he was cashier to Devavw-s's bank; that Mr. Devaynes died on the 29;.h of Novernb.!r,l6oc?,- , but the bank w..s carried on afterwards 11;s naon- and La.
