U .develop#* bimfelf to d* world, and betrays at ones his disregard to
quth 9 his litigious wrangling disposition, and mean scurrility: Aadal
though I mua coafoft inyfelf unequal to my antagooiHt, perhaps at this
weapon, (as pdsmick fontroverfy was never y study) yti think I am
at prefeat called poa to remove any prejudice which tha publick might
Sbibe again 11 My fritod Mr, Galphia or myfell from the abovemention*
piece} and lew my ft* assertion (hould be deemed toe hardy, 1 beg
leave to point out to the impartial part of mankind whereon it was ground
ed. J. I. Zubly feu out by informing*the publick, that the title to cer.
tain lands in dilpnte between him, Mr. Galphia, and niyfelf, was tried
at lad November court, iu South Carolina, and a verdift given, with
fool, damages, and ceis of suit, in his favear, (upon whet principles
that verdift was giyea, though probably well knbwn to many, of your
jfedert, it would be improper aed indelicate to mentioa here) lb far is
Jrue. J. J- Zubly then proceeds, that “ the defendants having brought
• a wnt of error, * hearing wae thereon had, on the iyth December, be.
fore tbe Governor end Cooncil, when the laid writ was difmifled, the
4 judgment of she court confirmed, and the appeal offered to the King
*p* in Council pot admitted }'• and thereupon draws a conclufioa, that,
* under the ftnftiou of bis two original grant}, a decifiea at common law,
•* and the. judgment confirmed by the Governor and Council, he may
f call the lend bit prturty,” lam fosry upon this occafioa to be forced
to tell J. J. ZubJy, that where the pfemifei are bad the conclusion must
fill to the groend, l thought him e better logician) and still more so to
find a man of his profeAon endeavouring to mifiaad the publick of this
province, by repcefemtiag, that the writ of error was qnaihed, mpo* the
ntriu of tin cajt, qfttr fill btarimf, when it is n known fall, and cube
proved, that the rcafons upon which tbe Governor and Council difmifled
the writ of error were, that under the present intrusion from his Maje
gy, without the affiftsnee es the legislature of that province, it has hither
to been found impracticable to devise a mode of carrying borne appeals to
tha King in Council from the Court es Common Pleas in South.Caroli.
ga, not with Handing the mefi eminent council, as well in feme of the
northern colonies as thnt province, have been confelted on the head
without success. And it is alio a well known faft, that, in a mod ma
terial cause tried feme years ago in South-Carelina, wherein Peter Simon
•f London was plaintiff, and Thomas Shubrick defendant, an appeal
Wis iafeerpofeA, but, for the above rcafen, never carried heme: Further,
the Governor and Council, in the present case, were of opinion, that as
the ! appelant* had silfo filed a bill in Chancery, (fir dijcrvtry of art tun
fitrtt mjftritt) they would difnrifs the- writ of error, and leave them to
ebsir remedy in that coart, bat by no means determined the right to the
land in queftion,i or confirmed the judgment of the court below, as J. J.
fcubly aliens. {think the acrufel of j. J. Zubly's performance will fuf
fietently evince the truth of my second and third assertions, as it mud
plainly appear, by hufittimjft bunding is/, that property in general is in
gangm, that he maaat only to inflame the minds of men of property in
this part of the world, when ia tbe fame paper he acknowledges, that in
the courta where the matter was litigated he has come off hitherto viftori
m* -aed might therefore rest contented. As J. J. Zebly brings his pro.
Xtffio%sn by the head and ftoaldet*, I cannot help concluding this paper
a little of that meeknefa, brotherly love,
find charity, which is so uniformly breathed throughout the fee red writ-,
jags, and for which dm firft piwfeflfors of Chrifliamty were so eminently
iiiiuguilhcd. LACHLAN M'GILLIVRAY.
