Pitt Taylor, and it really lays down no generally exclusive rule. It was a mere Nisi Prius case, in which the only question was, whether an attorney should be compelled to disclose the nature of a corrupt agreement, which he had been em- ployed to prepare, and Lord Holt held that he should not ; the report then adds ; " it seems to "be the same law of a scrivener, and he (Lord " Holt) cited a case, where, upon a covenant to " convey as counsel should advise, and ' counsel 51 '' * did not advise...' being pleaded, conveyances made " by the advice of a scrivener were allowed to be " good evidence upon this issue, for he is a counsel " to a man with whom he will advise, if he be " instructed and educated in such way of practice ; " otherwise of a Gentleman, Parson, &c. " Now independently of this being a mere obiter dictum of a Judge at Nisi Prius, it is evident that Lord Holt was not considering, or referring to, the case of a Clergyman entrusted by a Penitent in matters of spiritual concern his words really are only appli- cable to the subject before him, and simply mean, that if a Gentleman, a Parson, or any other person, not educated or practising as a Lawyer, is consulted on matters which properly belong only to a man professionally educated as a Lawyer, the com- munications made between such persons cannot be considered professional in other words, the Gentle- man, or the Parson, cannot be treated as a Lawyer, though he has apparently acted in that capacity.
