Q. What have you desired him to do?

A. To issue some writs.

Q. How many?

A. A hundred and thirty-five.

Lord Ellenborough. A hundred and thirty-five writs, of what kind?

Mr. Park. Qui tam actions, and that was the reason I did not propose calling him.

Mr. Adolphus. Are you to pay Mr. Tahourdin the costs of those actions, or Mr. Cochrane Johnstone?

A. Mr. Cochrane Johnstone most undoubtedly, I should think.

Mr. Park. I really think that ought not to be asked.

Lord Ellenborough. If a man at my instance issues a hundred and thirty-five writs, to be sure I must bear him harmless; how long has your neighbour Tragear failed?
