Scathing Speech in the Con

The good people of the Ninth District,
and of the State of Georgit, will breathe
Ireer and gain renewed hope when they
read adispatch from Gainesville, published
elsewhere.
It will be seen that the delegates who
have been representing Mr. Hill s interest
have issued an address, asking him to com
mence at once an active canvass of the
district. Their principal reason for making
this request is that they have reason to be
lieve that the prolonged and bitter right,
and the refusal to remit the matter to the
people, is a mere trick to leate Mr. Price’
the independent candidate, unconfronted
in his canvass, and let him have an open
race up to the fifth of May. Hence,
they request Mr. iliil to enter the
field at once, and meet Mr. Price. The
proposition is a perfectly proper one. and
Hill agrees to it at once. Ho has made
several appointments, and will get before
the people without delay. Let his posi
tion be fairly understood. His friends—
the delegates in the Convention ropre-ent-
inga majority of the District—inform liin^
officially that it is the interim of hi-
enemies to prolong the c >ntest in
the Convention until the 5th of May, and
thns hold him in suspense and idleness
until Mr. Price had canvassed the whole
District and made his fight, unmet and un
molested. He uowagrees.at tlieirreqnest,
to go before the people and plead his cause
and tlieiTs. He firmly believes that if the
Convention shall nominate any man by a
fair two-third vote, even if it is done the
very day before the election, he will with
draw at once.
We congratulate the people of the Ninth
District on the prospect, and trus: that they
will rally to Mr.Hill and with an earnestness
unanimity that shall silence all of his
traducers and estop forever, the political
trading that has been practiced in that dis
trict.

Hand-bills are now la circulation announcing his
speech here on Friday.
Hill men all right. The serious crisis on yester
day was happily averted, and Hill’s ranks are firmly
closed again. Alfuksd.
The following dispaU h has been forwarded to Mr.
Hiil. from his friends in the Convention. It will ex
plain itself:
The Democratic CoupraaMonal Convention for the
been a day of more dramatic intermit, and
of more speculation,than any other of the
eight that have so far constituted tho peri
od of this extraordinary Convention. That
it would be the lost day was the general
belief expressed at the hour oi assem
bling, and there remained .'ample field for
speculation; as to the incidents likely to
mark the dissolution of the body that for
a week past has commanded tho anxious
gaze of all Georgia.
Why should it bo the last? was a ques
tion easily answered. In the first place,
the issue was reduced to its
“last analysis"
(to employ Turnbull's favorite phrase,
which he has so often made'do service in
the deliberations of the Convention); the
circle of tied-out candidates had been run ;
all such lightning possibilities as Candler
and Wellborn had been tried in the effort
to seduce the Hill men from their alle
giance, and it was understood that
THIi FAITHFUL PHALANX
didn’t “seduce” worth a cent. Again in
the sharp skirmish of yesterday, a vast deal
of rubbish had been cleared from the track
in the shape of the lingering hopes of half
a score of “lightning candidates,” and by
the light of the musketry tho field
was cleared of all shadows of doubt as to
the attitude of all parties to the
conflict. Indeed, yesterday’s melee was
of great service in clearing the field, for
when it had ended not a single scheme of
all the numerous “treacherous amusements
of double and triple negotiations;” that
have marked this convention from the out
set, remained. There was not a card that
had not been played—in some instances
half-a-dozen times over; not a speech
carefully conned over but had been made;
though, in ttri£ latter respect, the conven
tion was to be surprised, later in the day,
with a speech, which it were well, for the
reputation of some of its members, to have
been suppressed.
Perhaiw even mare than yesterday’s
proceedings, the announcement from Mr.
Hill’s friends that he would
AT ONCE TAKE THE FIELD,
speaking at Gainesville on Friday,
and at Gumming, Forsyth county, on Sat
urday, tended to persuade the other side
that the “jig was up”with them. This an
nouncement was literally a hand-grenade
thrown into the convention, and as it ex
ploded there was a considerable commo
tion among “lame ducks,” and string-halt
steeds.
It was an unmistakable proclamation from
the Hill men to the other side that the
game by which they proposed to beat Mr.
Hill (with Price or anybody else, num
bers of them having declared that thev
preferred Price to Hill) was penetrated,
.Xlmli District. has been in session at this place since j and would be baffled. It was now plain that
ness, has not been sjcelled during the ses
sions of this Convention, conclusively de
monstrated the outrageous character of
the proposition to admit Dr. Watkins into
full privileges of the floor when, in point
of fact,, said Mr. Speer, he hart no right
upon the floor at all.
In his discussion of the case of Gilmer,
Mr. Speer indulged in so^e keen and
cutting irony at the expense of Mr. Turn-
bull. He had been present with the dis
tinguished gentleman from Banks, “than
whom there were, perhnps, older heads in
theConvention,hut assuredly none wiser,”
at the Banks county meeting, consisting of
perhaps fifteen persons, and had wit-
nt*: s u the quo modo of that
gentleman’s securing his seal as a delegate.
The analogy as to Banks and Gilmer was
completely established by Mr. Speer, who
inquired how it would have pleased the
gentleman (Turnbull) had a second and
larger meeting sent delegates, and claimed
to represent Banks. The references of Mr.
Speer to Mr. Turnbull wero of the most
caustic, and yet courteous nature, and
he illustrated one of the best features of
the debater’s art in his dissection of his ad
versary without giving him the slightest
opening for escape or effective rejoinder.
SPEER AND THE NOMINATION.
Leaving Mr. Turnbull and his meeting
of fifteen Banks county Spartans,
Mr. Speer proceeded to make a most dam
aging exposure of the game of “treasons
strategems and spoils” by which the anti-
Hill men have sought to accomplish their
paramount object of defeating Mr. Hill,
in pursuit of which thev have tempted the
virtue of every man of any prominence,
who, during the past week, has breathed
the contaminating air of this Convention
—afflicted town. I cannot do justice to
the overwhelming statement of utter and
eternal condemnation with which Mr.
Speer depicted the insincerity, treachery,
and in some instances, falsehood, of some
of the people who have been lighting Ben.
Hill.
The salient charge made by Mr. Speer
was that he had been on yesterday tender
ed the united support of the people who
have been voting for Bell and others
against Hill, provided he would bring
enough Hill men to his support. Subse
quently he had been informed that the
Hill men were warned of the scheme to
nominate him (Speer) and requested at the
critical moment to keep enough counties
away from him to defeat him. In the exe
cution of tliis plan of treachery ta Mr.
Speer, the President of the Convention
was to be requested to hold up the mallet a
sufficient length of .time to enable a with
drawal of votes enough to defeat him in
case it should ba ascertained by the tally
that he,(Speer,) had been nominated. Mr.
Speer emphasized his charges by declaring
his readiness to establish them by satis
factory evidence; and if necessary, to call
names. It is noticeable that while Messrs.
Haralson and Jamieson inquired if Mr.
Speer had reference to themselves, the
majority of the anti-Hill men manifested
no such inquisitiveness.

THI RSDAV NIGHT, April 22tl, 1*75.
THE BRIBERY litl.tl. iO-DAT.
To-day will witness the opening of a trial
the like of which Atlanta has never seen
before, and the like of which, we hope she
will never see again.
A member of our City Council, hereto
fore trusted by the people, and a member
of our Police Commission, a body that it
bad been hoped was removed beyond the
reach of corruption, are put publicly on
trial for bribery. A specific charge, with
details furnished upon affidavit, has been
put in the hands of Council, by a .nan who
has been a high official in the city’s ser
vice, and whose word has never been im
peached.
It is generally the case that the burden
of the proof is put upon the plaintiff; the
defendant coming clear if a ease is not
made out against him. In this case, how
ever, while it will behoove Capt. Jones to
prove his charges clearly and fully, hi
failure will not, as in a court of law, fully
exonerate Mr. Goodwin, when he has
sworn specifically and emphatically that
he has bribed Mr. Goodwin, and has paid
him the money. That gentleman must put
something in rebuttal, or his usefulness at
a public man, and his strength as a politi
cian has gone.
We opine that the issue will not be made
upon the question as to whether or not the
money has been paid, but rather as to the
purposes for which it has been paid. Mr,
Goodwin acknowledges having fteeived
divers sums oi money from Capt. Jones at
different times, but asserts that he took it
only in payment of reasonable legal fees,
he havingasa lawyer defended Capt. Jones
on several occasions. Capt. Jones, on the
other hand, declares that the money paid
was absolutely, openly and directly a bribe.
Mr. Goodwin’s refuge, in this crisis, it
seems to us, is to recount the number of
cases in which he has defended Jones, to
show that the money paid him by Jones
.was only enough to reasonably com ;>ensate
him for this work, and then defy Capt.
Jones to prove that he paid him a dollar
In excess of the'sum thus accoumed for.
The details of the trial, however, no one
can foretell; nor can its result be predicted
We sha'l report it fairly, impartially, and
correctly, and pass judgment upon it in
accordance with the facte. A heavy dis
grace impends over some one of the men,
at least, who has been high in authority,
and who has enjoyed the confidence of
the people. To comment in advance upon
the trial, would be pos? inly to tempt thii
disgrace to the wrong man, and involve an
innocent man in ruin.
the 14th instant, and after four hundred and six
.tallnts, have been unah’e to make a nomination.
While the friends of Hoa. H. P. Bell have a majori
ty of five votes in the Convention, the real strength
of the Convention being twenty-eight for yourself
and thirty-three for Be!!, yet the counties represent-
1 hy delegates voting for yourself represented a
iai^e majority of the citizenship of the district of
the liemoeratic votes thereof. The report of the
’omptrotler General fee 1374. sbowseleven thousand
and eight hundred and sixty-five polls in the coun
ties whose representatives are supporting you. and
eight thousand six hundred and thirty-one polls in
the counties supporting Mr. Bell. In addition to
the official vote for Congressman at the last
election, shows that the counties supporting you
cast two thirds oi the Democratic vote polled at said
election. In view of these facts we have firmly re
fused to abandon you for Mr. Bell, believing that
the demands oi your opponents in the Convention,
which was actually that two-thirds of the people
■hall yield to one-third, was unreasonable, undem
ocratic and unprecedented. In addition to this you
'. in point of fact, the strongest candidate before
theConvention. as the small majority of five in
favor of Mr. Beil was obtained by a coalition be
tween friends of that gentleman and the friends of
Mr. Wellborn, of Union. We are satisfied, both
from the action of those who oppose you in the
Convention, from their position, and the assertions
f many of them that they prefer Mr. Price to your
self, and that the real purpose which has induced
them to reject our proposition to adjourn sine die,
and remit the whole question to the people was. and
is to continue the Convention in session until the
fifth of May. and thereby secure adefest of the pop
ular will, by permitting Mr Price to make the race
without opposition. To this fraud upon the people
we cannot become parties.
We, therefore, earnestly request that
you at once take the field «h the Demo
cratic candidate to represent the Ninth
District in the forty-fourth Congress,
pledging to you the enthusiastic support
of ourselves and the people whom we rep
resent. We do not intend to withdraw
from the Convention now in session here,
that those who aredcfying the popular will
may place you in the false position
of the foe to the party organiza-
ion, bnt to remain with them un-
il the day of election, if they persist in re
jecting the fair prop, laition we have made
them to submit the matter to the people.

[Special to the Herald;

The Convention assembled at 9 o’clock n f
Hill’s friends were determined not to let
Price walk over the course, while the Con
vention should be purposely held in a“dead
lock” to defeat the voice oi three-fourths of
the Democratic voters of the district. Be
it remembered that the Hill men had of
fered every jiossible mode of settlement,
save, always,
TDK SACRIFICE OE TIIE GREAT MAN |
whom their people had gent them here to]
nominate. They had proposed, in view of
the overwhelming Democratic ascendency
in the district, precluding the choice of a
Radical, to remit to the people a question
which the convention had been unable to
solve. The two-thirds rule had been
adopted at the beginning, and if it had
been demonstrated that Hill could not he
nominated, it was equally clear that Bell
could not, nor could Wellborn nor Cand-
[ler, nor any other of the candidates
PRESENTED BY THE OMNIUM GATHERUM
OF THE ANTI-IIILL COMBINATION.
Why not adjourn, then, and let the peo
ple decide)’.’ Because (this was the logical
interpretation of their conduc*,) the anti-
Hill men were determined to defeat Hill,
even at the cost of Price’s success; and
liecause, too, they knew that the people,
by a large majority, had already declared
for Hill. Another proposition from the
Hill men,rejected by the other side.seveaal
days ago, was to bring Hill and Bell before
the Convention. In the face of the palpa
ble purpose of the other side to consent to
no settlement that did not involve Hill’s
sacrifice, the Hill men judiciously deter-
Imined to place Mr. Hill
BEFORE THE PEOFLE,
and there let the issue have its sol ution
Mr. Brobston, of Morgan, made the ini
tiatory move this morning, in the shape of
a proposition io adjourn fine die, sustained
by a brief and felicitous speech, in which
he urged cogently the qualifications of Mr.
Hill for dealing with the great questions to
confront the next Congress. Mr. Brobston
declared that he did not desire Mr. Bell’s
friends (although they had already taken
up several olher candidates) to make any
sacrifice of their favorite. “ But,” said he,
the friends of Mr. Hill cannot now aban
don him
WITHOUT INFAMY.”
Mr. Brobston’s calm and dignified| argu
ment was followed by a characteristic dis
play of Mr Allred’s eloquence, and by a
plea.for delay on the part of Mr. Cannon,
and the motion w as finally voted down, by
the decided vote of 41 nays'to 23 ayes.
On motion of Mr. Rucker the Conven
tion proceeded to the
408tii, ballot,
which resulted Bell 3d, Hill 26. After a
recess the Convention reassembled, and
with perhaps a more serious appearance
than at any other moment of its session.
The Hill men were, as usual, animated
but good humored; while with the other
side, it was palpable that the sliadow of
their fate was upon them. The one, bold,
decisive movement of the call upon Mr.
Hill had surprised, startled, and finally
baffled the conspirators who, in a short time
were to be exposed to the peenle of
Georgia, in all the hideousness of their
scheme of
POLITICAL ASSASSINATION
of a man to whom but a few- weeks ago
many of them had been forward in avow
ing their adhesion. Mr. Turnbull, who
has furnished throughout, the brains and
the inspiration of the opposition to Mr.
Hill (and in the Convention lie has re
peatedly referred in eulogistic terms to
Hill) discussed briefly the announcement
of Mr. Hill’s candidacy, referring to him as
a “disorganizer,” etc., etc. Before he had
spoken many moments, Mr. Turnbull ten
dered what he called the “Olive Branch”
(?) once more in the person of Mr. Jno. B.
Rates, of Hall, wham he suggested as a
proper person for the Hill men to ac
cept. A ballot speedily determined that
the Hill men were not in the “rallying”
mood, so far as Mr. Estes was concerned,
and in a few momenta the epitaph Fm't
Ilium was accorded M -. Estes.
THE CRISIS.
Now came the crisis, and here came tho
opportunity which enabled Mr. Speer, of
Clarke, to do the “mighty dfeed which gild
ed his humble name,” so far as this con
vention is concerned. Mr. Jamison, of
Towns, moved to admit Dr. Watkins, of
Gilmer, (whose status in the convention
has been explained in this correspondence)
to “full membership in tho convention.”
Col. Simmons descended from the chair to
oppose, in mn earnest and powerful speech,
a scheme which he truthfully char
acterized as a “bald-faced fraud” to
reverse the previous decision of the
Convention as to the case of Gilmer
connty, and to give to the Bell, Wellborn,
Turnbull, t andler, et id omne genus com
bination three votes, that by every require
ment of fairness and of Democratic prece
dent belonged to Mr. Hill. Turnbull’s re
joinder to Col. Bimmon’s speech indicated
at) appreciation on his side of the house of
the wet that the proposed outrage was,
perhaps, a bow-shot beyond even Die law
less purposes of a desperate majority, in
which every man, for a week past,' has acted
in plain defiance of the known will of the
people of the Ninth District.

Col.
Mr. Speer, acting as proxy for
Hutchins. of Gwinnett, after a ,
ful explanation of his possession
of CMoosi Hutchins’ proxy, non got
SPEER SPITS UPON THE NOMINATION.
In concluding his speech, Mr. Speer de
clared that though a nomination had again
been tendered him by the anti-Hill men,
he had scornfully rejected it, and would
regard as disreputable an acceptance of
a nomination at the hands of men
who had proven so recreant
to truth and honesty. He asserted with
great earnestness that he had never op
posed Mr. Hill, who was hia benefactor,
and to whom he owed a debt which a life
time of service would not discharge. At
one time believing that Mr. Hill would
be withdrawn, he had indulged honorable
aspirations, but under no other circum
stances would he have permitted the use
of his name.
EFFECT OF SPEER’S SPEECH.
Speer thrilled the Convention, and
made the Hill men more resolute than
ever not to yield in deference to men who
had shown such gum-elastic consciences in
their war upon Hill.
When he had finished,Turnbull, Allred,
and Candler, gave the Convention a dis
play of cheap oratory, which fell “stale,
flat and unprofitable,'’ upon unwillingears.
and very soon an adjournment was made
until 8 o’clock to-night.
Bell arrived this evening, and it is re
ported will endeavor to address tho Con
vention. In this connection, it is to be
remembered that a few days ago the Hill
men offered the Bell men a proposition to
bring both candidates here, and the Bell
men refused. Still Bell is here. Such are
the tactics with which they fight Ben Hill.
Will the people of the Ninth District in
dorse such tactics ? F. H. A.

Gainesville, 6:30, p. m., April 21.—It is
rumored to-night that Bell men will repeal
the two-thirds rule to-morrow and nomi

independent candidate. “Anything to

say they prefer Price to Hiil. Delegates

Mr. Hill went to Lexington on Monday
night for the purpose of making a speech
in the famous Eberhart murder case, in
which case he associate council with Gen.
Toombs.
His purpose was to leave Lexington yes
terday evening, and speak in Athens last
night. Gen. Toombs had offered to ac
company him and help him in the canvas,
in any way that he could. He is verv
much’in favor of Mr. Hill’s election. If
Mr. Hill spoke in Athens last night, he will
reach Atlanta to-day, and leavolor Gaines

He will speak in Gainesville on Friday,
IN CUMMING (FORSYTH CO.)
on Saturday, and will speak in five or six
different counties during the next week.
He will take in Franklin, Banks, and Madi
son counties certain. He will then can
ts’ on Monday andTuesdays of the second
week, and will probably speak in Lump

very much aroused, has a brainftill of tell

brilliant canvass. He hast sjn offered the
services of
OVER TWENTY SPEAKERS
fnside the district to canvas for him, and
every one of the 97 delegates who have
stood so firmly by him will be an apostle
in his cause. Mr. Speer, bright, wary and
eloquent, will take the stump actively in
his behalf, and we believe that Mr. Rucker,
than whom a brighter talker never lived,
will answer Mr. Price when he addresses
the people of Athens, and will possibly
travel with that gentleman to a fow of his
appointments. Messrs. Simmons, Mitch

anxious to get before tho people with their

We shall report the canvass carefully,
and get all the notable points.
WHO WILL BUN THB BACE.
It is believed by many, though we can
find no relUble source for the rumor, that
Mr. Bell will not make the race, unless he
receives the nomination of the regular two-
third majority. In tliat event it is said
that his friends will support Price. The
race may be either, Hill, Price and Bell;
Hill and Trice; or Hill and BelL Our
opinion is that the three will run. In ei
ther event, we believe that Mr. Hill will
beat the field. He certainly wilL if h-s
friends can be brought to the polls.
A dispatch just received announces that
Mr. Hill reached Athens last night, and
will arrive in Atlanta this morning.

of December, 1873 and 1874, and gave him
bond for titles. Previously he had pro
cured from Visage another deed to this
land, made to him as trustee for his wife,
but Clay objecting to treat with him as
trustee lie destroyed this last deed. After
wards he indorsed and delivered one of
Clay’s notes to Schofield, and then made
Schofield a deed to Bibb land, and also as
trustee for his wife, Tabitha B., made him
a deed to 600 acres of land in Terrell, inclu
ding thereon the 400 acres bargained to
Visage, as he alleges, with the understand
ing between hint and Schofield that S.
would convey to Visage and Clay upon
compliance with their respective con
tracts. V. supposed lie was dealing
with McK., and knew nothing of the
land being incumbered with a trust or of
-tlcK.’s want of title, until sometime in the
following October, when he visited Bibb
county, had an interview with McK., and
endeavored to have the contract rescinded;
that McK. then informed him that lie had
no t.tle to the land, that he was insolvent
and had nottiing he could reach by going
to law. This is denied, but is proven by
V.’s answer and Ciay’s affidavit. In No
vember or December, V. abandoned Ter
rell county land and came to Bibb and
took possession of the land conveyed to
McK., which was in possession of McKel-
lar’s tenants by force and fraud, and has
remained upon it undisturbed during the
year 1874, alleges in his answer that in De
cember, 1873, McKellar agreed to meet
him at Macon, January 1st, 1874, when
they would mutually surrender papers and
cancel the trade; that they accordingly
met, but McKellar excused himself for not
complying, saying that Scofield had the
papers and would not deliver them to him.
This is denied by McKellar. McKellar
charges that he could take no steps to oust
Visage from the possession of the Bibb
county land, because of the title of Scofield,
who would not institute proceedings for
that purpose, as he desired to recover ttie
land for his own use, in violation of the
trust on which he obtained the deed; he
also stated in one of his affidavits that Sco
field had gotten an advantage in the con
veyance of the Terrell county land, of
which he was endeavoring to avail him
self ; alleges Visage’s insolvency and
claims possession of the Bibb county land,
and the rents and profits arising therefrom
as indemnity for his endorsement and as
security for the collection of Clay’s note for
$500, which he still holds ; amends his bill
part of the law ot
this State there can bo no doubt. One
of the evils that statute was intended to
remedy was that/ the property^ of the
eettevi que w noj/i not bo reached'by legal
process for his d^-bts. The statute there
fore executed this use, that, is it conveyed
the possession t<f> the use, ami transferred
the use into pqsjteshion, and thereby made
the cetlvi que war complete owner of the j
property as Well at law as equity. By the

Code, 5306. In other words, the testator
in this case eon id have created a trust cetou j
in favor of his son, if he was a minor,during J
his minority, or if he had been nWu compos
nientix, and the trust would have been a If-;
gd, valid trust. But it is insisted that the !
a::t of 1863, which repealed that portion of i
the 2247th section of old Code, which de- ]
clared “that trust tetol
in any property for any male person
of sane mind. Wc are inclined to
t link it was the intention of
the Legislature, in passing act of 1873, only
to repeal so much of the sec. of tlie Code,
referred to in the Act, as prohibited the
creation of Uuths expressed oV implied
in any property for any male person of
sane mind, and not to repeat that po:*
tion of the rode w hich declared that a
trust eetatc eonld not be created in any
property for any male person of sane
mind. The caption of the Act, and the
words in tho body cf it only refer to the
creation of Irutte, and not~ to the crea
tion of truel cMate*. But be that as it may,
that section of the old code which declared
tliat a trust estate could not he created in
any property for anv male person of sane
mind,was only due declaratory of what was
the common "law of force in this state at
the time of the adoption ot the code, and
the repeal of thatdeelaratory statute, withou
more, left the common law applicable to
that question in full force and operation.
In our judgment, a trust ettate cannot lie
created in property in this state for the
sole benefit of a full grown man who is
sui juris, and be conveyed to a trustee
for the impose of protecting it against his
creditors for the payment of his debts or
for the purpose of depriving him from the \
free use and enjoyment of such property j
as the owner thereof. By the act of 1821 |
(the provisions of which are substantially j
embodied in the code) all bequests and ;
devises of property, real or personal, shall
be held and construed to vest in the per-!
son to whom the same are made, an un- j
conditional fee simple estate, unless it be i
otherwise expressed, and a less estate men-
tioned and limited in such bequests or de- ;
vise. Cobbs Dig. 169. The testator by hie j
will bequeathed and devised the property
therein mentioned to Obear in trust, for*
the use and benefit of his son Edwin T.,
without any limitation or restriction as to J
the extent of his interest in the property :
conveyed. In other words Obear the trus- .
tee, wits a mere conduit thr. ugh which the
estate conveyed by the testator passed i
to Edwin T.,’ the complainant. All the j
trustee had to do by the terms of the bill, i
was to restrict the restni </»<■ trust from the j
free use and enjoyment of his own
property, and to protect it from the
payment of bis debts, which is contrary
to "the policy of the state. There being
nothing for the trustee to do hy the terms

it from the payment at his debts, and the

at adjournment last night. To-day has argomsnt, which, for cogency and eiear-
gother with him, oilers to carry! out these
contracts upon compliance with the terms i male
originally agreed upon. Visage converts
his answer into a cross bill, and prays re
scission of the contract. Upon this state
of facts Scofield was enjoined from con
veying the Bibb eouutv land, and was ap
pointed receiver to take charge of and rent
the same from year to year, until the ter
mination of the suit, unless Visage would
give bond, with approved security, in the
sum of six hundred dollars, within
five days, conditioned for the pay
ment of the rent and damages,
the jury might find against him on the
trial, but in the event of his failure to do
so, then he was to surrender possession to
the receiver appointed, etc.
To the granting of the injunction and
appointing a receiver, Visage excepted.
There were several affidavits read on the
hearing before the judge, in respect to the
agreements and conduct of the respective
parties, which appear in the record, and
which are very conflicting. In view of the
complicated state of the transactions be
tween the parties, as well as their conduct!
in relation thereto, as shown by the orig
inal bill, and the answer of Visage in the
nature of a cross bill, as well as the several
conflicting affidavits contained in the rec
ord, we will not interfere to control the
discretion of the court in granting the in
junction and appointing a receiver, (Visage
being insolvent), until the final bearing of
the case, in order that the rights and equi
ties of the respective parties may beascer-
tained and adjusted by the decree of the
court. But inasmuch as Schofield has not

WARNER. C. J
This was a bill filed by the complainant
against the defendant, as the executor of
Willi im Gray, deceived, calling upon him
to account for, and pay to him, the amount
of his legacy specified in the testator will.
On tho trial"of the case, the jury, under
the charge of the Court, found a verdict
for the defendant. The complainant made
a motion for a new trial on the several
grounds set forth in the record, which was
ovet ruled by tho Court, and the com
plainant excepted. The clause of the tes-
titor will, under which the legacy is
claimed is in the following words: “Igive
and bequeath at my death to George S.
Obear, in trust for the use and benefit of
my son, Edwin J. Gray, the following ne
groes, naming them. I also give to the
said George S. Obear, in trust as aforesaid,
one-fourth of all the money, bonds, stocks,
land, and personal property of every des
cription, negroes excepted, of which Imay
die possessed, after deducting the bonds
favor of tho cestui
hereinafter given to tho children of Benja
min Patterson Jenkins, deceased. I will
and direct that the property so
given to the said Georgo 8. Obear in trust
tor mv saul. s° n Edwin T., shall lie man
aged and controlled by said triiBtee for the
use and benefit of my said son, who is to
be restricted in his expenses to the income
arrising from said property. Tho said
trustee sliall have authority to sell, or ex
change, any or all of said property and re
invest the proceeds thereof, if he shall
deem it best for the interest of my said
son, but said property shall not be liable
for tho debts or contracts of my said son,
except when made and entered into by the
written consent of my said trustee.” The
will was executed in July, 1864. Thetei-
tator died in 1870. The complainant re
quested tho Court to charge the jury “that j
the trust here set up by Ubear was what dGendairi
the law defines an executed trust, was so
at the time of its creation, and if Dot so
orignally, if the proof Bhows that Obear lias
received the property of Gray, rendering
his interest certain, and has reduced it to
possession or control, that then the trust
que trust,
not now before us for consideration.
The Court erred in allowing Burnett and
the other witnesses to testify as to the men
tal incapacity of complainant, over his ob
jections, on the ground tliat the defendant
had alleged in nis answer that the com
plainant was non compos mentis, or that he
was a person of unsound mind. The Court
also erred in allowing the defendant to
testify in relation to any contract, or agree
ment, made between himself and Gray,
the testator, respecting tho $5,700 receipt
for railroad stocks and bonds, in as much
as Gray the other party to the contract or
agreement, was dead. It was also in error
in admitting in evidence the entry made
on the back of the obligation by the defen
dant in pencil w riting, since the death of the
testator. The Court also erred in not in
structing the jury what part of the defen
dant’s answer was responsive to the alle
gations in complainant’s bill, and w hat
part thereof was not responsive, having
been especially requested to do so. It was
the legal right of tne complainant to have
had the charge of the court
to the jurv reduced to writing.
As a matter oi practice, however, w hen
either partv in the cause shall require the
charge of tlie Court to lie in writing, such
requirements, or request, should be made
of the Court before the commencement of
the
the
the bettor prepared to give its charge in
w riting after the close of the argument.
Holding, as wc do, that tho trust contained
in the testator’s will was an rrrental trust,
that the title to the property vested in the
complainant, and he having tlie right to
require the defendant to account therefor
as executor, we express no opinion in re
gard to the questions made ill the record
as to the removal of the defendant as trus
tee of complainant.
