doubt  bat  that,  if  the  case  were  a  proper  one,  the  court
of  law  would  have  attended  to  it,  and  that  relief  would
have  been  afforded.  If  the  Pluntiflb  have  been  adraed
that  they  could  not  have  relief  in  the  court  of  law,
I  suppose  they  must  have  been  so  advised,  becsofle
the  facts  were  not  such,  as  to  leave  them  any  hope  that
any  application  would  succeed.  If  that  be  the  case,
is  there  any  reason  why  they  should  succeed  in  a  court
of  equity  ?  If  they  have  chosen  another  jnrisdidaon,
instead  of  coming  into  this  Court  at  first,  and  have
agreed  to  a  reference  and  submitted  to  an  order  of
a  court  of  law,  is  there  any  reason  why  they  are  to
be  relieved  from  the  consequence  of  what  they  haye
done,  by  the  exercise  of  the  equitable  jurisdiction  of
this  Court?


It  must  not  be  thought  that  I  am  here  proceediog
upon  the  notion  that  this  Court  will  not  relieve  in  a
case  of  fraud,  if  that  fraud  be  made  out.  I  say  that
this  Court  will  not,  on  an  allegation  of  fraud,  interfere
in  a  matter  where  another  jurisdiction  has  been  adopted :
— where  the  matter  has  proceeded  under  the  jurisdiction
of  another  court,  and  where  there  is  nothing  to  shew,
that  upon  an  application  being  made  to  that  court,  it
has  not  full  jurisdiction  and  power  to  grant  to  the
Plaintiffs  every  proper  relief.
