Wise’s Executor v. Ressler.
    In covenant for rent, interest does not accrue until demand.
    In the trial, a question arose, whether the jury was bound to give interest on the rents from the time they became demandable, or from the time of actual demand.
    
      Mr. N. Herbert and Mr. Taylor, for the plaintiff.
    
      Mr. Swann, for the defendant.
   The Court

(Morsell, J., contra.)

The tenant is not in default until demand; and interest ought not to be given unless from the time of the default of the tenant.
