Sheriff’s Court, (London) April 17.
Par riff versus H:,Hamby, Esq.
THIS was an action upon the case for seducing the
plaintiff’s daughter. The mrs. Theodosia Bar
rifF, was the widow of an officer who had served with con
siderable reputation and bravery during the American war.
Upon the termination of that dispute he came over to this
country with Ins wife, the present plaintiff, who was the
daughter of a distinguished American loyalist. They took
a house in the neighborhood of Blackheith, where they
lived for several years upon an annuity for their joint lives
of 4001.
Mr. BarrifF died about six years ago, leaving his wife
and a daughter, then 11 years cf age. Miss Maria Rar
riff was a young lady extremely well educated, and pos
sessed of uncommon beauty and accomplishments. It
happened about two years and a half ago she went with
her mother to Ascot Heath races, where they accidentally
met the defendant, who was introduced to them as tin*
acquaintance of the friend at whose house they resided
during the excursion. The defendant paid very particular
attention to miss Bai l iff, and professed himself a candidate
tor tiie honor of her hand in marriage. Soon after her
return home with her mother she was visited bv the de
fendant, who declared his intention in form; and as mrs.
Barrifl, upon inquiry, found his connexions were respect
able, and nis prospects flattering, she gave her consent tQ
his addressing her daughter as her future husband.
In the month of July 1 1st. a few m'ontbs before the mar
riage was to have t .ken place, mr. Hollamby invited miss
BarrifF and her mother to accompany him with a pai tv to.
V auxhall. Mrs. BarrifF excused herself on account ci’
indisposition, but suffered her daughter to go with him.
Hie remainder of the case was detailed bv miss BairifF,
who fainted twice during the recital. She said she accom
panied the defendant in a coath as far as Westminster
Bridge, where they took water and proceeded to Vaux
liall. When they had Wen some time in the garden they
joined the defendant’s party, consisting of several ladies
and gentlemen, none of whom the witness knew. They
engaged a box, and about 11 o’clock sat down to supper.
I here were several sorts of wine upon the table, of which
the defendant pressed her to partake. In the course of the
evening several of the company became much elevated,
and drank her health as mrs. Hollambv. Her own spirits
were raised by the compliment, and she was persuaded to
drink a glass of Champaigns. She found herself
atter indisposed, and signified her wish to return. The
defendant and herself quitted the gardens, and he handed
her into a carriage, and ordered the coachman to drive to
Blackheath. She grew worse, and became totally insen*
sible. When she came to herself she perceived she was
in a bedchamber, with the defendant near her. She was
conscious of her situation, and of the outrage she had sus
tained. She swooned, and was a long time before she re
covered. When she came to herself the defendant en
deavored to appease her, but she insisted on returning
home. Ihe defendant told her it was impossible thev
could return tiil the morning; that her mother would not
expeA her, and that their marriage would take place on
the day appointed. She consented to remain on condition
he quitted the room. He did so, and she threw herself on
the bed in a state of distraction and despair.
The next morning she returned to her mother, and re
lated all tnat had passed. ‘I he plaintiff then brought the
present action, and, after a full hearing of all theVirum
stances, the jury, to the great sntisfaAion of a nitfst crowd
ed court, found a verdiA for the plaintiff, with icocl.
damages.
HOGARTH’S LAST PAINTING.
A FEW months before this ingenious artist was seized
with the malady which deprived society of one of its most
distinguished ornaments he proposed to his matchless pen
cil the work he has entitled A Tail Piece; the first idea
of which is said to have been started in company while the
convivial glass was circulating round his own table. “ My
next undertaking,” said Hogarth, “ shall be the end of
all things.” “ If that be the case,” replied one of his
friends, “ your business will be finished, for there will
be an end of the painter There will sol” answered
Hogarth, sighing heavily; and, therefore, the sooner
my work is done the better.” Accordingly he began the
next day, and continued his design with a diligence that
seemed to indicate an apprehension he should not live till
lie had completed it. This, however, he did in the most
ingenious manner, by grouping every thing which could
denote the end of all things. A broken bottle—an old
broom worn to the stump—the butt end of an old musket
-—a cracked bell—a bow unstrung—3 crown tumbled in
pieces—towers in ruins—the sign post of a tavern, called
the World’s End, tumbling—the moon in her wane the
map of the globe burning—a gibbet falling, the body gone,
and the chains which held it dropping down Phoebus and
horses dead in the clouds—a vessel wrecked Time witl*
his hour glass and scythe broken, and a tobacco pipe in
his mouth, the last whiff of smoke going out a play book
opened, with Exeunt Omnes stampt in the corner aa
empty purse—and a statute of bankruptcy taken out a
gainst Nature—“ So % so good,”, cried Hogarth;
“ nothing remains but this,” taking his pendl in a sort
of piophetic fury, and dashing off the similitude of a
painter's pallet broken. “ Finis!” exclaimed Hogarth;
‘‘ the deed is done! all is over!"— It is remarkable, and
little known, perhaps, that he died in about a month aftet
finishing this Tail Piece, having never again taken th*.. -
pallet in his hand.
