Damages Awarded in Seduction Case Against Joseph Brome
A London jury awarded £700 in damages to William Oliver Jackson in an action for criminal conversation with his wife, against defendant Joseph Bromehead, a barrister. The case detailed the affair, the marriage in 1835, and Bromehead’s repeated visits to Mrs Jackson, culminating in the wife leaving to stay with the defendant before returning home. The defense argued for modest damages, noting lack of corroborating family testimony and the husband’s alleged distant conduct.

It argues the Corn Laws altered import controls since 1815, not 1828, and that English policy aided continental nations after the Revolutionary Wars, shifting responsibility for industry and employment.
