(1) See page xi of the Report, and Day's Common Law Procedure Acts, p. 48. (1) Pollock, C.B., Martin, B. and Pigott, B.

deed, in full satisfaction and discharge of their several respective debts, which the parties of the second part had agreed to accept •in full satisfaction and discharge, proceeded in consideration thereof to release the debts : —Held, that the deed was invalid, and not binding on the non-assenting creditors, as by the terms of the deed the composition was to ?? paid only to the creditors who signed, therefore those who assented were in a better position than those who dissented.

Declaration, first count, on a promissory note for 50/. by payee against maker, and second count for interest.

Plea, that after the last pleading in this action and after the llth of October 1861, the defendant was indebted to the plaintiff and divers other persons, and thereupon a deed hereinafter particularly set forth relating to the debts and liabilities of the defendant and his release therefrom, bearing date the 8th of March 1864, was made and entered into by and between the defendant, the person in the deed named as Albert Gribble, of the first part, and John Fryer in the said deed named, and also all the other creditors of the defendant whose names were there undersigned and hereinafter set forth, of the second part, and •which said deed, signed and attested as hereinafter mentioned, was and is in the words and figures following, that is to say, —This deed, made the 8th of March 1864, between Albert Gribble, of Collumpton, in the county of Devon, attorney-at-law, of the first part, and the undersigned J. Fryer, of No. 2, The Mint, in the city of Exeter, schoolmaster, one of the creditors of the said A. Gribble, and also all the other undersigned creditors of the said A. Gribble, of the second part, the said J. Fryer and all the other undersigned creditors of A. Gribble, being a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors of the said A. Gribble, whose debts respectively amount to 10/. and upwards, and being hereinafter described as the several parties hereto of the second part. Whereas, from divers causes, the said A. Gribble is unable to pay his several creditors the full sum of 20«. in the pound, but is able and willing to pay each and all of them, on signing this deed, the composition or compensation of 5«. in the pound. And whereas the said A. Gribble hath applied to the several parties hereto of the second part to receive and take the said composition or compensation of 5.». in the pound, payable on signing the deed, in full satisfaction and discharge of their several respective debts, claims and demands on him which the several parties hereto of the second part have agreed to accept in such full satisfaction and discharge as aforesaid, and in consideration thereof do hereby respectively release the said A. Gribble of and from all debts, claims and demands due from the said A. Gribble to them respectively. Provided always, that the execution hereof by any or either of the several parties hereto of the second part shall not in any way prejudice or discharge their right to retain for their own use and benefit against all persons whatever any security or securities, whether legal or equitable, which are now held by any or either of them, and which may have been deposited or given by the said A. Gribble in respect of any debt, claim or demand not compounded for or compensated under and by virtue of this deed, and shall not in any way prejudice or discharge their right to receive under or sue upon any such security or securities as against all other persons than the said A. Gribble. The plea then averred that a majority in. number, representing threefourths in value, of the creditors of the defendant whose debts respectively amounted to 10/. and upwards did in writing assent to and approve of the said deed, and the execution of the said deed by the defendant was attested by a solicitor, and within twenty-eight days from the day of execution of the said deed by the defendant the same was produced and left (having been first duly stamped) at the office of the Chief Registrar of the Court of Bankruptcy for the purpose of being registered, and together with such deed there was delivered to the said Chief Registrar an affidavit by which the defendant had a majority in number, representing threefourths in value of the creditors of the defendant whose debts amounted to 10/. and upwards had in writing assented to and approved of the said deed, and that the deed did before the registration thereof bear such ordinary and ad valorem stamp duties as were provided by the Bankruptcy Act, 1861, in that behalf; and at the time of the execution of the deed the plaintiff was a creditor of the defendant in respect of the claim herein pleaded to, within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Act, 1861, and all conditions precedent had beenperformed, and having been performed, the plaintiff became and was bound by the deed as if he had been a party to it and had duly executed the same.

1845 SPECIMEN OF THE WORKING OF LORD BROUGHAM'S ACT AS AN INDEMNITY FOR DEBTORS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LAW TIMES.

Cullompton, Devon, Feb. 27, 1845. Sir,—A respectable farmer of this neighbourhood sold a butcher several sheep a short time since for the sum of 9/. 13s. When the sheep were taken away, a cheque was given for the amount, payable at an Exeter bank. The following Friday, when the farmer attended the Exeter market, the cheque was presented for payment,—theanswer was "Noeffects." Application was then personally made to the butcher, who was in the market, and he promised to settle on the following Wednesday, but failed so to do ; he was t >f n called on at his dwelling-house, and again fixed a day, and again no money. I was then requested to write him a sharp letter. Underneath is the answer to my application, which I consider a very rich specimen,— no regret, no petition for time, no promise to pay. It needs no comment, but strongly speaks for itself. So much for the " Rogues' Indemnity Act." I remain, Sir, your obedient servant,

Albert Gribble. (copy.) Thorverton, Feb. 22nd, 1845. Sir,—I would advise you not to proceed against me relative to Mr. debt, as I am protected from all law—consequently all expenses will fall on your client. Yours, &c W. W.

If you doubt my word enquire of Mr. ,Solicitor, Exeter.

Mr. Gribble, Solicitor, Cullompton, Devon.
