Mr. Scaitt.srt and Mr. CHITTY condected the Plaintiffs' case.—The Plrnttills were described as respectable surgeons, and the Defendant as a young gentleman holding a profitable situaticta iu the post office. His father, a clergyman or the Church of England, had formerly thrtll in aHuent eircoas stances, hut had become embarrassed, and in the month of May last he was oaken in execution for debts amounting to 4 or SOOL, and carried to Deets's fork-rip -house in Kiug-atreet. Soho. In a state of mental derangement, arising from accumu lated ntielimuues, he made an attempt to cut his throat with a razor in two places. The keeper of the luck-np-house, who bad receiv,d timely notice of the misfortune, diately sent for the Plain , tiffs, who were the neatest resident surgeons, in ennui and render their assistance. One of the Plaintiffs, accompanied by his brother, came to the house forthwith, and dressed the wound., which were extremely dangerous. On r o d, si d e of the neck. there was a deep 'mei:llan, several of the veto, were divided, and the carotid artery w-e laid hare. Mr. Davis sent u message to the Defendant, ac quainting him with the calamity which had befallen his father, and desired his itutuediate presence. The Defendant went directly to the luck-up-house. and desired that every care should be taken of his parent, arid said lie would pay all expenses incurred. At that moment the Surgeons were iu the how, and had just performed the operation of dieseling the wounds. Mr. Morgan, jun. was called down stsiss, and the Defendant was informed, that such was the nature of the wounds that it would be necessary fora surgeon to sit up with the patient all night. Upon which the Defendant repeated his williugnevo to pay all expenses, sod desired that proper attention should be paid to his father. •Orie of the Plaintiffs accordingly sat up the whole night. and the patient was visited by the Plaintiffs there. four and five times a day, for nearly a fortnight. They afterwards visited hire in the Fleet prison until • cure was effected. For their trouble (dress ings and medicines) they made • charge of 43/. 15s. 6d. for which sum they now sought to make the Defendout liable. Mr. Doe* the Sheriff's officer, proved the pro mise made by the Defendant to pay all expenses. Mr. Morgan, a .brother of the Plaintiff, proved the reasonableness of the charge. The 6ist upero- Linn 11 01tV, if charged at test guineas, would have been reasonable. He could nut say what portiere' of the bill had been applied to that part of the attend. mice. The sem charged had reference to the whole •Itetable of attending the patient from first to last. If nothing had been charged for the first dressing ispd attendance. the sum charged in the whole bill *sold hate been reasonable for the sithoeipleat at-. • Stadiums, Swim Dr. Steitaditemes trolled in when the accident hawneil : thoitild the Plaintiff's bill was very riateeable. The first operation fur dressing the wounds would be very moderately charged at five guineas. The sem of 99/. was not too such fur the subsequent attendances, supposing the Wounds to have been dressed by somebody else before the Plaintiffs were gilled in. The SoticiToa.Gettelult. (with whoa was Mr. Pagittileretlllll) said this wee a most afflicting cam. The Defendset was • young mu, far Irons being in affluent circumstances : he had imprudently nt volved himself in giving security fur his father's debts, which had swept away all his . p . toprity. and cod left biro nothing to depend upau for existence but a trey smell salary, as a sorter of letters in Ike foreign department of the Posit.ollee. He was in. •ducscl to resist this action. beeuese he had never in. Isiuded to become liable fee noM than the . expeuse taking care of hie father the first night ghee sloe accident happened. It was for the Juey to ley. whether the promise proved in evidence went beybrid that liability. Undoubtedly he was not liable for the expense of dressing his hither's wounds, and for the first attendance of the Plaintiff., fur it appeard that they were called in before he was sent fur ; mug, therefore, the promise could not be construed:to extend to what had then bee* done. They wooed, therefore, reduce the amount of their verdict it sill events, by deducting five guineas or ten guiunii, which had been proved. by two wilts:tat* resew fively, to have bees a fair charge la dressing- the wounds and perfuming the first operation ; or they might take an intermediate sum between tire and ten guineas, in apportioning what part of the pill ought to be applied to the period byline the De fendaut gave any promise. If the Defendant. was to be held liable for more than the expense of the attendance on the first night, he certainly Ishotalid undr a misconception; toe what he tnteuded did Dot go beyond the expense of sitting up with his father the hest night. The CUIEF JUSTICE charged the Jury. that thi Defendant win certainly amt liable for what was done by the Plaintiffs before the Defehdant had made any promise ; but he reminded thew, shpt both the medical gentlemen estunined had said, that the sum charged fur rritessdrirce, btc, wurrict Immo been reasonable if the Plaintiffs had not performed the first operation. They would, however. take the whole case into their coosideration, and snake sin% deductions as appeared to them to be just and ria. • trnable. The Jury falai a verdict fetthe Damages twensrgatineos.
