also attended on Behalf of the said College, and
offered several Amendments to the Bill, which were
agreed to by the Committee; and the said Mr. Morgan afterwards declared, he had no further Objections,
nor should oppose its passing; but the said College,
in their Corporate Capacity, have not otherwise signified their Consent to the Committee: And the said
Anne Meriel Legh by her Guardian, and the said College by the said Mr. Morgan, submitted their respective Interests to this House.
The Committee also find, that Daniel Byrne (who,
upon Failure of Issue Male of the late Sir John Byrne,
is the only Person in Remainder under the said Sir
John's Marriage Settlement) hath no Issue Male; and
if the Consent of the said Daniel Byrne can be obtained, Sir John Byrne's Trustees might, as the Committee conceive, procure an Act of Parliament for
Sale of the said Estate in Ireland; and it hath been
proved to the Committee, that the said Daniel Byrne
hath declared, that he is willing to consent thereto,
upon having Two Hundred Pounds a Year immediately
settled upon him and his Issue Male.
And the Committee observe, that, if Power were
given to Sir John Byrne's Trustees, to make immediate
Sale of his Real Estate, and the same should be sold
within the said Four Years, neither the said Anne Meriel Legh nor the said College could have any Claim
to the said Testator's Estate, till Failure of Issue Male
of the said Sir Peter Byrne and John Byrne; and in that
Case, would only be entitled to the Profits thereof from
the Time of such Failure of Issue Male; but, by this
Bill, the Profits of the said Testator's Estate are directed to be retained till the 23d Day of January 1755,
which is Thirteen Years and an Half from the Testator's Death; and if the said Sir John Byrne's Estate
be not sold before that Time, and there shall be a
Son of the said Dame Meriel by the said Sir John
Byrne then living; or if, before that Time, there should
be a Failure of Issue Male of the said Sir Peter Byrne
and John Byrne, the said Anne Meriel Legh, or such
other Person as shall then be entitled to the said Testator's Real Estate, will have the Benefit of all the
accumulated Rents and Profits thereof, from the Time
of the Testator's Death, which is proposed as an Equivalent for the contingent Interest, which the said Anne
Meriel Legh, or the other Persons in Remainder, may
possibly be deprived of, by enlarging the Time of
Sale in the Manner mentioned in the Bill.
And that the Committee had made several Amendments to the said Bill."
Which Report and Amendments, being read Twice
by the Clerk, were agreed to by the House.
