Exeter and Plymouth Gazette: Saturday 31st March 1855

Newton Abbot County Court: … W. M. Praed, Esq., Judge: … Pinsent v. How: Plaintiff, a brewer, Newton, sued defendant, an innkeeper, of Torquay, for £17 10s., for goods supplied. Defendant did not appear. Mr. Holmes, plaintiff’s clerk, said he met the defendant on the previous morning, when he said, “Pinsent has been very foolish to put me into Court; I should have paid him his money as promised had he not done so, but now I can’t”. Mr. J. Stuart, bailiff of the Court, gave similar evidence of admission. His Honour said on the face of the evidence he must give a verdict for plaintiff, but the law had pointed out, the person to whom admissions should be made — the Clerk the Court, who would put it in writing and produce it the judge; otherwise it was not such an admission as the law recognized, and he did all in his power to discourage any other. It being understood that the defendant was about to leave the country, immediate judgment was given, without costs.

Agriculture: Agricultural Sales and Markets: A few days ago, a very important sale shorthorn cattle, &c, took place at the seat of Mr. Pinsent, Greenhill, Devonshire, who was compelled to relinquish an admirably conducted farm in consequence of indisposition, a number of breeders from all parts the county were present, and the cattle fetched high prices. For instance, a splendid cow, six months gone in calf, named “Gay Lass,” fetched 75 guineas, and was purchased by a gentleman of Ashburton.  A yearling heifer out of the above animal was sold at £20, and other prime beasts fetched similar high prices. The prices of animal food in the markets of the West continue high and prove very remunerative to the agriculturists. At Newton market fat bullocks sold, on the last market-day, at 60s per cwt.; cows and calves, 56s to 60s; pigs, 9s. 6d. to 10s. per score. At Crediton cattle-market fat beasts sold at 11s. per score; cows and calves, £13 to £14. At Exeter, Tiverton, Totnes, and other Devonshire markets similar prices were given.

Pinsent: Re. Charles, 16: Tuesday, Dec. 19. (Before Mr. Commissioner Phillips): Re Charles Pinsent: Discharge by detaining creditor before adjudication. An insolvent not on bail, who has been discharged by his detaining creditor the evening before the day appointed for his hearing, being unopposed at the hearing, will be discharged by the court: This insolvent came up to-day for his hearing, being apparently in the custody the officer of the Queen’s Prison, as other insolvents; but the officer intimated to the court that his detaining creditor had sent a discharge to the prison on the preceding evening at half-past five o’clock, but, at the insolvent’s request, he was permitted to remain in the prison all night and come up with the other prisoners for a hearing. The insolvent prayed for the adjudication of the court. Mr. Commissioner Phillips being in doubt to whether the court had jurisdiction, the insolvent having been legally discharged, referred to the cases: Re Isaac Gabriel Costa, SC. C. Chron. 146 In this case discharge had been lodged on the morning of the day preceding that appointed for the hearing; but, in consequence of an oversight of the governor, the insolvent was not aware of it before he reached the court to which he had been brought in custody of the gaoler.
