TINDAL, KNT.-Sir Nicholas Conyngham Tindal, Knt., Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas, died at Folkstone, on Monday evening last, after a short illness. The learned Judge was born at Chelmsford, in Essex, in 1776. In 1795 he entered at Trinity College, Cambridge, and took his degrees of B. A. 1799 and M. A. 1802. He obtained a fellowship in 1801, which he retained until 1819, the period of his marriage. He was called to the Bar in 1809, at Lincoln's Inn, and in the year 1829 was appointed Chief Judge of the Common Pleas.

In Six very thick octavo Volumes, price 67. 108. in strong cloth bds., BURN'S JUSTICE of the PEACE and PARISH OFFICER. The Twenty-ninth Edition, corrected and greatly enlarged, containing the Statutes and Cases to 7 & 8 Vict., inclusive, with a New Collection of Precedents. The Title "Poor" by Mr. Commissioner BERE, of the Exeter District Court of Bankruptcy; the rest of the Work by THOMAS CHITTY, Esq., of the Inner Temple. On introducing a new and greatly improved edition of an old-estalished book, like Burn's Justice," to the notice of the Members of the Magistracy and the Legal Profession, the Publishers need only point attention to the claims which it has upon two such large and influential bodies, to ensure a success similar to that which has attended all previous editions. Since the year 1837 (the date of the last edition) a considerable number of important Statutes have been passed; by several of those Statutes the executive power of the Magistrate has been somewhat restricted, and by others extended, while the whole duties of the office have undergone too many changes not to render a New Edition (embodying every Act and decision to the present time) a valuable and necessary addition to the Libraries of Gentlemen engaged in the Local Administration of Justice. The Six Volumes have received a thorough revision; the Forms have been re-modelled, and carefully adapted to the recent changes; several new Titles (created by modern enactments) have been introduced, and great exertions have been made to ensure a correct and full development of the Law as it now stands. The title "Poor," which occupies the whole of the Fourth Volume, has again been prepared by Mr. Commissioner Bere; and his object has been to furnish the cases at full length, being satisfied that no compendious abstract, however carefully made, would supply a satisfactory Manual for those who attend the Quarter Sessions. The Marginal Notes and the Index are, however, abridgments of the Cases, so that the general principles of the Law may be ascertained without reading the fuller statement. The great utility of the Work as an authority, presenting the cases in detail, and superseding the Reports themselves, is thereby preserved, at the same time that the necessity of reading the whole is obviated by the fulness of the Marginal Note.

He has developed his plan with great clearness of method, in a lively and agreeable style."-Jurist.

The following are the Names of the Gentlemen who favour THE JURIST with Reports of Cases argued and decided in the several Courts of Law and Equity: LONDON, JULY 18, 1846. respecting the trust property. Six years after the accounts were closed and the releases executed, the plainWe had occasion some time ago (see 10 Jur. p. 109) tiff filed his bill to have the whole account re-opened. to call the attention of our readers to a case very im- It was argued, on the one side, that, though a solicitor portant to solicitors, who are frequently applied to, ex-trustee might employ another solicitor, yet he cannot, pressly because they are solicitors, to act as executors or trustees; a position in which the general rule is, that they cannot, under any circumstances, in the absence of specific agreement, recover or retain anything for professional services. The case of Stanes v. Parker (cited in the paper referred to) seemed somewhat to qualify the doctrine, by deciding, that, where cestuis que trustent had had before them for a fortnight a draft of a release to their trustee, who had acted as solicitor, accompanied with, and taking into account his bill of costs by way of debiting the estate, and had then executed the release, they could not afterwards set it aside and disallow the trustees' costs as solicitor. We observed, that, in that case, it did not appear whether the solicitor had distinctly apprised the plaintiffs of their right to refuse payment of his bill, or whether that knowledge was presumed. A case of a very similar character to Stanes v. Parker has, however, just been decided, which seems at variance with the decision in that case. In the case of Todd v. Wilson, (Rolls, 15th inst.), it appeared that William Todd, by his will, had bequeathed his property to the defendants, one of whom was a solicitor, upon certain trusts, under which they were to purchase an annuity for the lives of the father and mother of the plaintiff, and to pay the residue to the plaintiff. Arrangements were, after the testator's death, entered into, by which the plaintiff became entitled to the capital of his estate; and then accounts were delivered to the plaintiff by the trustees, to whom releases were executed. The accounts contained charges for professional business done by one of the defendants in relation to the arrangements VOL. X. A A if he chooses to act himself as solicitor, make any professional charge. On the other side, the acquiescence of six years was insisted upon, and it was said, that the business done related not merely to the testator's estate, but to the arrangements between the plaintiff and his father, the intended annuitant. We are not aware whether Stanes v. Parker was cited, but we conclude that it was not. The Master of the Rolls is reported to have said, that Trotter, (one of the defendants), acting as solicitor, was, so far, both solicitor and client, and that, as solicitor, he was acting for himself as trustee. A solicitor so employed was entitled only to disbursements out of pocket, and was not entitled to charge for his time, professional trouble, or fees. And, accordingly, the bill of costs was referred to the Master, upon the footing of striking out all charges for professional services, except costs out of pocket. Now, so far as can be gathered from the note of this case which is to be found in the public journals,—the only source of information to which we have at present access,-it would seem that the circumstances are as nearly as possible the same as in Stanes v. Parker. There was in both cases professional business done by a trustee solicitor. In both cases the trustee delivered an account, which was fully placed before the cestuis que trustent; in both cases the cestuis que trustent, apprised of the account, and of the inclusion in the terms of the intended release of such account, executed deliberately the release: but, in the one case, the court thought the execution of the release conclusive as against the cestuis que trustent; in the other, it thought fit to re-open the account notwithstanding the release NEWSP |
