ARREST OF A GRAND JUROR
Cork, Nov. 26- A circumstance occurred on Monday last, which from its novelty in this part of the world, the delicate nature of the case, and the respectability of the parties concerned, has been the chief topic of conversation in this city.- The facts as we have been credibly informed, are these: - At the usual hour for attendance, Mr. Sheriff Lawe was proceeding to the Court, when at the door, he was accosted by Mr. Wm. Gregg, Attorney, who informed him, "that the Grand Jury were desirous for his attendance and that they were waiting for him." Sheriff Lawe immediately hurried to the Jury room, accompanied by Mr. Gregg, and knocked at the door, at which that Gentleman put a Writ into the Sheriff's hand, and said that it was against Mr. William Beare, who was in that room, and insisted that he should immediately be arrested. On the instant the door was opened by one of the Gentlemen inside, and Mr. Gregg endeavoured to force in, but the door with much difficulty was closed against him by the Gentlemen inside.
Mr. Gregg then with much warmth addressed the Sheriff, and said he would hold him responsible for the amount of the Writ, and again knocked loudly at the door. Sheriff Lawe replied that he was not aware of William Beare being inside, not having seen him. The door was again opened, on which Mr. Gregg pushed in and exclaimed, "I'll show him to you, Sir; there is Mr. Beare, Sir; do your duty, sir; otherwise Mr. Sheriff I hold you responsible.
Mr. William Beare then rose up and addressed himself to the Foreman, required his permission to leave the room, to which assent was given; the Foreman observing, that "he should proceed with the Sheriff." Mr. Beare then retired with the Sheriff, and entered the required bail. Mr. Beare, who is very young, is son of Colonel Beare.
At the opening of the Court, William P. White, Esq. the Foreman of the Grand Jury, having spoken privately with the Recorder, his Worship addressed Mr. Gregg, Attorney, on the above subject, and stated, that it had just been communicated to him, that a member of the Grand Jury had been arrested in their room, on an action in a cause in which he, Mr. Gregg, was acting as Agent. This, Mr. Gregg must know, was illegal, and the gentleman must therefore be discharged.
Mr. Gregg undertook to show the Recorder, that the arrest was not illegal; that the protection for a Grand Juror, to which the Recorder alluded, did not operate in the present case, as the Grand Jury had not at the time entered upon their business.
The Recorder declared that he would hear nothing further on the subject; that the Gentleman must be immediately liberated. With respect to the protection for Grand Jurors, the Charter and Constitutional Law was clear, that they had a right to perfect freedom of person, which nothing should interrupt, even on their way from their residence to the Court; and if such protection were not supported in the most uninterrupted manner, what would be more easy than to overturn the whole course of Judicial Law of the country, by procuring, on any urgent occasion, a sufficient number of hardy persons, to issue similar actions against a sufficient number of Grand Jurors, and thus, by removing them, prevent any trial from proceeding which there may be an object in preventing? On the whole view of the case, the Recorder repeated his advice, that the Gentleman should be immediately liberated, which, after some objections by Mr. Gregg, was done in the manner stated.
