JEFFERSON SUPERIOR COURT, )
At Chambers, February, 1828. )
Dixon 4c Wife vs. Neily 4b Neily.
The admissions of a party art the strongest evi
dence against his rights.
Hdrs and legatees stand in the plaet of their an
colors, and hart no other or greaitr rights, than
hr had in his lifetime; but creditors stand in a
different light and in their favor, fra+d will &
presumed on slight grounds.
Although creditors may lake advantage, of fraud,
t/u vurtits to such fraud can have no rdief,
ithcr at law or in equity, hut must lie down under
A judgment for the plaintiff in an aeiion of tro
ver, rests the specific properly in the defendant.
The will of the testator mutt be pursued, and
therefore, u-here he directed his properly to be sold,
at auction, and a part of it is in the hands of a
third person who refused to deliver it, and a bill
in equity is brought against him and the executor,
the jury cannot find a certain sum for the com
plainants by way of damages, as in an action at
law, but they must find the facts and decree that
the property be delivered up to be sold as the will
directs.
As a general rule, creditors and legatees cannot
sustain a bill and follow the assets of a deceased
person in the hands of the debtors to the estate, or
persons having properl be longing to such estate.
Hut where, there is collusion between such person
and the executor, and the executor is insolvent,
such bill may be supported.
This was a bill in equity brought by
the complainants against the defendants,
in onler to recovet a disttbutiv* share of
the estate of John Neily, dec’d. The
facts wpre .hose : J■ hn Neily made a w ill,
whereby he declared that he was possess
ed of certain personal property, “ as cat
tle, hogs, household and kitchen furniture,
his crop and plantation tools,” and then
proceeded to order that ilos, and all his
>tlier property not otherwise disposed of,
should be sold at auction, and the pro
ceeds equally divided among his children.
The two defendants and Ebonezer Bnth-
svcll, were appointed tho executors, and
only one of them, to wit: James Nei-
iy ono of the defendants, qualified
and took upon himself the burthen
of said will. James Neily, rtn.- qualified
executor, made an inventory of the pro
pel tv, and sold it agreeably to the direc
tions of the will, but did not pay over to
the complainants tbeii share or propor
tion. John Neily, at the time ef his death,
was possessed of several negroes, of which
'be had been in peaceable possession for
upwards of l\v ::<y years, though lie made
no mention of them i n hh will; and at the
time of wr iting and execu'ing his will, oa
be . g asked by one of the witnesses to the
w,*!, “ what he was going to do with his
negroes,” he replied that “ lie had noth
ing to do with Jude and Iter children,
because they belonged to his son Thomas
Ne:!y, and ever hid done.” Thomas
Neils, one of the defendants, took pus-
session of these negroes as his own pio-
per y, immediatelv upon the death of the
tes: i, and now this bill was brought to
.ecover, not only the complainant’s share
>f hi' p operty mentioned in the will, b..t
also a proportionable share of these ne-
gt(>e>.
Upon the trial before a special jury, it
appeared in evidence that Thomas Neily,
nu’r, one of the defendants, purchased
slude, the mother of the oilier negmes,
from Joseph Da Cosia and wife, whose
bill if sale he produced in evidence, dated
10.it March, 1791- That at tin* rune of
"he purchase he lived with his father, and
brought the girl, Jude, there, where she
and her offspring remained until the death
of his father. That Thomas Neily, jun.
remained with and worked for his la her
until he was 35 years of age. That dur
ing the time John Neily had possession ot
these negroes, he exercised acts of own
ership over them, and frequently made
deeds of gift of them, or some of them, to
his children or grand children, and then
cancelled them again, or obtained re-cou-
'Tvances; but there was no evidence that
these conveyances were made with the
knowledge or consent of Thomas Neily,
jun’r. That John Neily said to Ebene-
Jer BotWell, that his son, Tho’s Neily,
would hold the negroes. Reuben Turner,
sen’r, staled that he had known John
Neilv many years, and always heard him
say that Jude and her increase belonged
to his son, Thomas Neily. Theophilus
Dillard, one of the witnesses to the will,
stated that on one occasion John Neily
made a deed of gift of one of the negroes
to Mr. Low, the Husband of one of his
grana-daughters, and aherwards request
ed the witness to write to Thomas Neily
come and take his negroes for they be
longed to him. Thomas Neily accord
ingly did come, and produced and read Ins
bill of sale -from Da Costa and wife to
bim, when John Neily said, “ mv son
these negroes belong to you, and ever
have done, but you have been so good as
to let them stay with me for my support
and yoa can take them now or any time •”
^nd Thomas Neily then took Dinah awav.
Mr. Dillard also proved the expressions
°fJohn Neilv, as above stated, when be
tDade his will. There also appeared in
evidence a bill of sale from Thomas Nei-
y to John Neily for these same negroes
"^ted in 1805, but it did not appear wbe'
ther i' was made by Thomas Neily, sen’r,
or Thomas Neily, juu*r, and Thomas
Neily, jun’r, positively denied in his an
swer, that he ever made such bill of sale,
or any other conveyance to J -hn Neily.
Upon this evidence the jury found ihe
negroes subject to distribution according
to the will of John Neily ; and taking the
valuation put upen them, and their hire
by Thomas Neily, jun’r, in his answer,
they awarded to the complainants the sum
of $580 23£ cents and costs of suit, 417
dollars of which, is on accouut of the ne
groes.
The defendants being dissatisfied with
the verdict, moved the Court for a new
trial on several grounds, to wit:
1st. That the complainants under tbe
last will of John Neily, which will makes
no disposition of those negroes, and there
fore they have no right of recovery.
2d. That the verdict is contrary to evi
dence in this, that John Neily disclaimed
all right to these negroes, and acknow
ledged the title and right to be in Thomas
Wftriy, .iun’r, which was proved by the
conduct of the testator in making no men
tion of them in bis will; and also by his
repeated declarations that they were the
property of his son, Tho’s Neily.
Sd. That the verdict is contrary to law
in ihis ; that even supposing the negroes
to be the property of John Neily, and
subject to the dispositions of his will, the
jury had no right or authority in law to
find any specific sum against the defend
ants, but should have found the negroes
to be the property of John Neily, as sub
ject to s de at auction as directed by the
testator.
4. That the verdict is erroneous be
cause it is against both the defendants,
when only one of them, to wit: James
Neily, qualified as executor.
5. That the Judge committed error in
charging the jury, that the accounts of
James Neilv, passed by the Court of Or
dinary, were not conclusive evidence of
paymenis made bv him, and that as there
was no voucher for one of the items, a-
mouniingto $32 43 cents, the jury might
or might not allow it, as they might think
the evidence sufficient, or not, to satisfy
their consciences.
These grounds were argued at Cham
bers, by Mr. John Schley for the motion,
and Mr. Gamble against it.
By the Court—It is to me always an
unpleasant task to interfere with the ver
dict of a special jury, and I never do so,
unless I feel myself imperiously called on
by the principles of law and justice. But
whenever I think a jury have found a
verdict without evidence to support it, and
that justice has not been done, J consider
mvself bound to set it aside aud grant a
now trial. In this case, I thought at the
trial, aud still think that so much of this
verdict as relates to the negroes, is con
trary to evidence and the principles of
law and justice, and that therefore a new
trial ought to be grained, unless the com
plainants will consent to release the de
fendants from that part of the verdict, and
take a decree for the balance ; and I now
proceed to give my reasons for this opin
ion, by considering the several grounds of
the motion in their order.
1st. The first ground is not tenable,
because, if in point of fact ihe negroes are
the property of John Neil v, they are sub
ject to be sold at auction, and the pro
ceeds to be divided between the children
of the testator, because the will provides
that the cattle, hogs, &c 14 and whate
ver rise is not disposed of in another way
shall be sold at auction, and the proceeds
divided among the testator’s children.—
These negroes, therefore, if they be the
propert, of John Neily, are equ illy sub
ject to be sold at auction with the other
property.
2d. The second ground is well taken,
and supoorted by tin* facts which came
out in evidence, because there was no evi
dence of title in John Neily, except the
deed from Thomas Neily to him, aud his
long possession. These, it is true, would
have been sufficient evidence of title, if it
had appeared that the deed had been
made by Thomas Neily, jun’r, the defen
dant, and there had been no disclaimer on
he pari of John Neily. But Thomas
Neily, jun’r, the defendant, positively de
nies in his answer that he ever made this,
or mv other deed for these negroes, to
John Neily; and John Neily repeatedly,
duiing his life, and shortly before his
death, and at the time he executed his will,
declared that these negroes were the pro
perty of Thomas Neily, jun r, the defen
dant. Now it is a clear principle of law
and common sense, that the admissions of
a person against his own interest, are the
strongest evidence against his right. Sup
pose then, that John Neily were in life,
and the defendant, Thomas Neily, had
brought an action ot trover against him
for these negroes, and in addition to tne
bill of sale from Da Costa and wife, had
proved the admissions of John Neily,
that these negroes were the property of
Thomas Neily, jun’r, as was done in the
case now under consideration : Can any
one for a moment suppose that a jury un
der this evidence would not have found a
verdict for Thomas Neily ? If then John
Neily had no title to these negroes, and
could not have held them against tbe title
of Thomas Neily, neither can his heirs or
legatees, because they now stand in his
place and can have no other rights than
such as he had in his life-time. If this
had been a contest in which creditors
were concerned, and the jury had found
these negroes subject to the payment of
John Neily’s debts, I should not have dis
turbed the veidirt ; because, from all the
facts of the case, the jury might well have
presumed fraud as against creditors.——
But as the case is, there could have been
no intention of fraud, because there was
no person against whom it could have
operated; and even if it were possible in
such a case to presume fraud, yet it is an
established rule of law and equity, that
neither of the parties to a fraud can be
relieved, but they must lie down under it.
Admitting then, tor the sake of argument
that the transactions between Thomas
Neily and John Neily were fraudulent
and intended to deceive somebody, yet
we know not who it was; and no credi
tors «r purchasers are complaining. The
consequence hen is, that the parties must
be down under their own fraud, and no
Court, either of law of equity, will lend
its aid toeither against the other, but leave
them in status quo. The complainants
then standing, as above stated, in the
place and stead of their ancestor, John
Neily, with no other rights than such as
he had, could not obtain relief against
Thomas Neily, even supposing this to
have been a fraudulent transaction.
3d. Jt seems to me that the third ground
taken for a new trial is reasonable, and
according to the course of proceedings in
equity, and no case has been shewn to
justify the verdict. If an action of trover
be brought at law, and a verdict of dama
ges found for the plaintiff, such verdict
and the judgment thereon, vest the speci
fic property sued for, in the defendant,
but no such proceedings is known in equi
ty ; and besides, even if in any case such
a verdict can stand, it certainly is errone
ous bere, because it is in direct opposition
to the will of the testator, which declares
that the property shall be sold at auction.
It seems to me, therefore, that tbe jury
should have found the negroes to be the
property of the estate of John Neily, and
then proceeded to decree that Thomas
Neily should deliver them to James Neilv,
the executor, and that he, James Neilv,
should proceed to sell them at auction,
and divide the money as directed by the
will; and, if they had failed or refused to
perform such decree, it could have been
enforced in snch manner as the rules in
equity prescribe.
4th. The fourth ground cannot be sus
tained in this case, for although as a gene
ral rule, creditors or legatees cannot file or
sustain a bill against a debtor of the es
tate, or one having in bis possession pro
perty belonging to tbe estate ; yet under
certain circumstances, such as collusion
between such person and the executor, or
where there is collusion and the executor
is insolvent, Sec. 4tc. such bill may be
supported—(See Doram v. Simpson, 4
Ves. Jun. 651, 43 Erz. Ch. 8, Seh. Dig.
233); and in the present case, collusion
is charged in the bill, and if the evidence
had been sufficient to establish property
in John Neily, such collusion, from all the
circumstancs would have been well estab
lished.
5th. Upon this grouud I shall give no
positive opinion, because my mind is not
entirely made up on the subject, and be
cause it is not necessary in this case, as a
new trial will be grained on some of the
other grounds. The opinion I expiessed
in my charge to the jury, was formed du
ring the trial, without time to reflect, and
upon the authority of Judge Montgome
ry’s opinion whilst he presided in this dis
trict. I am, however, upon reflection,
led to doubt its correctness, inasmuch as
the account was passed and accepted by
a Court of competent jurisdiction, and tio
appeal from its decision was taken. The
jury, however, even according to the
opinion I gave, should have allowed as
much as forty shillings for the item, be
cause I told them that so much of it was
proved by the oath of the executor.
For the reasons above stated, I am of
opinion that the verdict is erroneous and
ought to be set aside, and a new trial
granted, unless the complainants think
proper to release so much as relates to
the negroes, and enter a decree for the
balance against James Neilv, the qualified
executor ; and unless they do so, it is or-
deted that a new trial be granted.
New trial granted.

Value of Cotton.—It appears that the
value of the cotton imported iDto Great
Britain in the year 1823, in its taw state,
was $22,500,000, and that when it was
manufactured, its value was estimated at
218 millions, nearly ten times this the
wnrth of the raw material. Thus nearly
200 millions of dollars were gained to
that kingdom bv manufacturing labor and
machinery, in oneyeai, aud ou a single
article or staple of general use and con
sumption. The fact of the advantages of
manufacturing to England is thus display
ed in the strongest point of view. In
deed, the benefit of manufactures cannot
admit of question—tbe only doubts on the
subject being in regard to the time, tbe
quantum of encouragement they should
receive—as we believe with be agreed by
all parties.
Cure for the Scratches in Horses.
An ointment of itch-weed or poke-root
is said to be a certain cure for the trou
blesome disease called scratches in hor
ses. By making a strong decoction of
this root, and adding an equal quantity of
melted lard, a few applications to the fet
locks of the horse, it is said, will effect a
cure.—Bclvidere Apollo.
