would give up this pint of the claim. His Honour :
Very well, there will be a tion•iiit in this CAM ; n•ist
proceed with the agency part of the claim for goods
sold and delivered. --Mr. 1/rititt said defendant's wife

called, and substantiated Br. Itniitt's statenaents.
In reply to the Judge, the witness said that the money
Mal left to her for her 11/11.. Her husband had
nothing to do with the business, and knew nothing
about goods being Isiturlit fnim Mr. Morgan until a
bill wail sent in to him two years ago. She asked for
her account from Mr. Morgan's, hut could not get it.
She was quite willing to pay this account a little at a
time herself.-110orge If iscock, the defendant, said his
wife carried on the business at Lytchett herself, with
her own money, and that he bad nothing to do with
it, and never authorised her to pledge his cmdit.—
His Honour summed up the evidence, pointing out to
the jury that the question for them to consider was
whether or not the defendant's wife was acting as her
husband's agent in this matter.—The jury. after •
brief deliberation, returned a verdict for the plain-
tiff.—His Honour gave judgment accordingly, and
said he would refer the items of the account to Sr.
Munckton, one of the asseasors of the court.
