DANSER v. BOYLE.
    On Certiorari to Common Pleas on Appeal.
    
      C. Cassedy,
    
    moved for a reversal of this judgment, for the defects of the state of demand. A part of the charge was this, “ due on contract on exchange of horses, as difference thirty dollars.”
    
      J. Miller, contra,
    cited Penn. R. 386, Seely v. Myres; 2 Ib. 558, Cole v. Williams.
    
    
      Cassedy, in reply,
    cited 3 Holst. 57 ; 5 lb. 233.
    
   By the Court.

That part of the demand charging for exchange of horses, should not be stated as matter of book account, as it is here: but should be specially set forth.

This defect is not cured by its being mingled with a correct charge of the book account.

Dayton, J.

This charge could not be pleaded in bar of another suit.

Judgment reversed.
